Understanding Your Small Business Insurance Needs in New Jersey

​

Understanding your unique risks and insurance needs is important to help you determine the right insurance coverage for your business. Here are some important factors to consider:

 

Industry: The industry you are in will play a role in determining your insurance needs. For example, a retail store will have different insurance needs than a construction company.

 

Location: The location of your business will also impact your insurance needs. For example, businesses in coastal areas of New Jersey may need more comprehensive coverage for weather-related risks.

 

Business Size: The size of your business will also impact your insurance needs. For example, a small retail store may have different insurance needs than a larger retail chain.

 

Business Assets: The assets you have in your business will also impact your insurance needs. For example, businesses with expensive equipment or large inventory may need more comprehensive coverage.

Business Owners Policy (BOP)

A business owners policy (BOP) is a package policy that combines several types of coverage, including commercial general liability and property insurance, into one convenient policy. This type of coverage is often recommended for small to medium-sized businesses as it can provide comprehensive coverage at an affordable cost.

​

How to Choose the Right Insurance Coverage for Your Business

 

When choosing the right coverage for your business, it is important to consider your specific industry and the risks your company may face. For example, a construction company will likely need different coverage than a retail store or office.

It is also important to work with a reputable insurance agent, such as the Overmyer Insurance Agency, who can help you understand the options available and recommend the best coverage for your business.

​

What Is The Difference Between Working With An Insurance Company and An Independent Insurance Agency?

 

Typically when you work with an insurance company, you only have one option for your business insurance needs. One of the biggest advantages when working with an independent insurance agency such as the Overmyer Insurance Agency is the ability to compare multiple insurance options from different insurance companies. We partner with many insurance companies, which means we can help you find the best policy that fits your specific business insurance needs and budget. 

 

Additionally, we are your dedicated insurance advisor and advocate. Our job is just beginning when you start your business insurance policy with our agency. We are there for you if you have a claim, coverage question, or have to make a change to your policy.  There is no need for you to chat with bots, contact call centers with inexperienced customer service representatives, or wait on hold.
