This brochure contains some guidelines to help owners of home businesses to properly insure their business.
Property and Liability Insurance
Businessowners need both property insurance in case they're robbed or a fire breaks out in their company's "headquarters" and destroys equipment and inventory, and liability insurance in case someone gets hurt using their product or services or falls down the stairs when coming to see them.
