BUSINESS PROTECTION

Small Risks or Big Risks in Business

There is always some degree of risk in starting a business, but does your business require extra protection? Here are some businesses that can qualify for additional risk:

Making and/or selling edible products; Housing and/or caring for people or animals;
Manufacturing or using hazardous materials; Operating a bar or other establishment that serves alcohol;
Repairing or building homes or other structures; Operating, repairing, or building vehicles;
Refurbishing or repairing items of great value; Health or Medical Services or products
Operating a business that entails physical activity that may result in injury; i.e., amusement or fitness facilities;
Operating a delivery or trucking operation where driving is the main activity. Nutrition, Beauty, or personal products;
Advising, Consulting, Directing, treating, reviewing, supplying, servicing, or other positions of control (virtually anyone).

Many businesses in these categories protect themselves with additional business insurance, but sometimes insurance cannot cover all the risks. In that case, incorporating your business as a corporation or LLC can protect your personal assets from business liabilities and claims against the business.
