As a business owner, you understand that not all businesses are the same. Take a look at some of Allstate’s business insurance coverages and see which ones are right for you.

• Business owners policy (BOP)

This policy combines multiple coverages, such as property coverage (for building and/or contents) and liability coverage, into one convenient package.

• Property coverage

This policy protects the property your business owns.

• Liability coverage

If a customer is injured at your business, this policy helps cover any legal expenses, as well as any other liability claims.

• Business interruption coverage

This policy helps cover lost income and extra expenses resulting from a covered claim.

• Equipment breakdown coverage

If your business experiences a power surge or other covered risk, this policy helps pay to repair any damaged equipment.

There are several factors that determine the cost of business insurance, including the type of industry you work in and the specific job you do. Take general liability coverage: professionals who interact with the public, such as retailers, tend to pay more for this policy than those who work on their own, because there’s a higher level of risk involved with customer-facing industries.

In general, the cost of your business insurance depends on the specific type of policy you need. Additionally, it’s also subject to state availability, and qualifications may vary by state.

There are a few things to consider when deciding on the right business insurance you need. Mainly, the type of business you own and the services you provide, as well as the state your business operates in. As a rule of thumb, general liability insurance is a basic policy to have as a business owner, because it helps cover bodily injury, property damage and various legal and medical expenses. If your business uses company vehicles, then commercial auto coverage is a good idea, since a personal auto insurance policy typically doesn’t extend to your business’s vehicles.

The simple answer is yes, even if you’re a sole proprietor. Your industry and the work you do determine the type of business insurance you need. General liability coverage is recommended for all businesses, while businesses with valuable property or company vehicles may need commercial property insurance and commercial auto coverage, respectively.
