Introduction to the Business Owner’s Policy

A BOP protects the business with four types of coverage rolled into one package. It provides a reduced premium rate for the coverage over purchasing the four policies separately.

If you own a business or want to start a business in Erie, CO, you will need a business plan, a marketing plan, and insurance. Most businesses start with a business owner’s policy. This provides the four most typically purchased policies in a bundle. This provides all four policies that would typically be needed at a reduced premium.

At Advantage Service Insurance, we want you to understand why you need a BOP fully. It saves you money, and you obtain the protection you need for liability, property damage, peril, and business interruption. Regardless of your type of business, you need a BOP since it provides the baseline protections and risk reductions.

Once you obtain the BOP, you customize it with other policy types, including commercial auto or inland marine insurance. This provides the appropriate protection that your specific business needs.
The policies you add to the BOP will differ from your neighbor’s ones to their business policy. Your neighbor might own a dry-cleaning service that requires inland marine insurance, while you might need malpractice insurance because you are a dentist. The BOP policy provides the basic coverage at a reduced expense than buying each of the policies separately.

Your customization lets you address your business risk needs while another business addresses its needs in a vastly different way. The BOP may be the only policy you have in common, but you both carry commercial insurance. More than ten types of business insurance exist, so you should consult with your insurance agent at Advantage Service Insurance, serving Erie, CO, before purchasing.
