Small Biz Millionaire Ep. 12: Business Insurances
4.What type of business insurance do I need?
Whether we are talking about the plumbers, electricians, auto mechanics, landscapers, painters, this lesson covers all facets of business.
The main reason you want insurance is to protect yourself, and the definition of insurance in a simple term, it's really nothing but “the transfer of liability.”
What does transfer of liability really mean?
That means, if my employees get into an accident, If my building burns down, if I hurt myself,
something happens, an auto accident, my insurance will take care of it.
Business Insurance:
How much do I need? And what kind do I need?
1. Workers compensation.
I recommend that you get workers comp the minute you hire your first employee because most people have individual health insurance or accident Insurance on themselves, especially
if you're married and you've got kids. But when you start getting employees, now you have to protect them.
I've got a payroll service and every week they would take out the taxes, it took out the workers comp, and they took out the next one:
2. General liability
Let's say you're working in a customer's house and you're dragging, you’re an electrician,
you're filling a wire, or you're an AC guy and you're pulling some flex, you accidentally step on it,
water line for instance, or step through the salient and cause major damage, water being the worst one - and it Floods the whole house, your general liability policy should cover that.
Always read the fine print. You want to know your deductible and what it covers and what it doesn't cover.
3. Commercial auto.
You want to deal with a reputable company in commercial auto. When you hire a new employee,
1. Run their Drivers License
2. Keep track of the people you're hiring (they will enter people's homes)
Also you as the owner, you want a minimum of $500,000 of liability on each policy. Make sure the policy covers each vehicle that you have. Also you want $100,000 accident - per person that's involved in the accident.
4. Inland Marine:
This insurance covers your tools that may be stolen, if you can't pull your trucks inside your shop and lock them up, or if you're in a nice secure, fenced-in area.
You have to keep the serial number, so each time I would buy a piece of equipment,
I would lay it on a table, I would take a picture of the piece of equipment,
and I'm going to take a picture of the serial number.
I'd put those together, staple them, and put them in a file.
And I'd actually number what truck it was supposed to be on, every once in a while I'd go out there and I’d make sure the guys didn't swap one tool for another around of their trucks.
I only got broken in to two times in 25 years.
5. Property insurance.
The property insurance really to a large degree if someone comes on your property and gets hurt,
it's kind of like another liability policy.
6. Umbrella policy: I would extremely impress upon all owners out there to get an umbrella policy. I would recommend at least two million dollars this day and time, that's so if you get sued,
they can't attack your company. Now your insurance company, your property insurance
and all your contents insurance will cover if it happens on the property, but this is if it happens off the property.
So if you get sued, your umbrella policy will kick in and they will get the attorneys to defend you,
because they don't want to write a check for two million dollars, I can promise you that. They'd rather spend a couple hundred thousand dollars on an attorney. But the biggest thing, it protects you from your personal assets getting attacked, your business assets, and personally.
7. Fire Insurance: That's the insurance that is for inside of your building that will protect your inventory, your computer's, your furniture.
You want to make sure that if you have a fire it's going to protect you with all your interior,
but also you need an insurance, and it usually is tied to the fire insurance, is if you’ve lost revenue.
8. Commercial property insurance:
For your building, for your land, it’s just to cover you in the event there's a catastrophic event.
Hurricanes, flooding, things like that.
The best thing I would recommend is that you stick to a good insurance company.
I would also recommend getting three quotes, take the policies on them side-by-side, compare apples to apples as they say, and make sure you're getting what you're paying for.
Thank you for watching,
David

    I was in at Incerlik Air Base Turkey in 1992 or 93. We hadd a temporary office on the flight line, next to a Tab-Vee or HAS (hardened aircraft shelter). The building we used was a smaller version of the Tab-V, a hardened fire truck shelter. Walls 3 feet thick, hardened with who knows what. It could withstand a near miss of pretty much any bomb, that wasn’t in the nuclear family. That building was wired for480v 4 phase power. No outlets. Just the 4 phase plug to plug the fire truck into. I’m guessing here. I know why the HAS would need 4 phase, for aircraft power. But this was a mystery. We needed to power some equipment. Charge our radios, run our test equipment, yada yada… We had one guy step up and say, “I can make it work. I’ll take one leg of that power, run it out to a junction box. 120v. Jobs done. No sweat. But it was very hot and humid in the Turkish desert. So there was a lot of sweating 😅 So I’m standing there watching him closely. I just want to see what he does. So the power comes into the building through the wall, about chest high. It runs into a 1 ft tall by 2 ft wide by 1 ft deep junction box. The safety cover opens from the top, is hinged at the bottom. With a built in stop that makes it stick strait out 90° from the wall. Pretty simple on the inside. Each phase comes in, has a connection that looks really strange where it brings them all together. It just doesn’t make s Any sense, and Mike lets out a WTF? So he pulls out his meter. This is Turkey, they may have their own ideas how to do things. So he is checking each line. Checking from ground (the metal shelf the door made make a handy meter stand and ground. 440, 440, 440, 440, on each leg. Wtf? He re asses it, thinks about it. “Ah… they must be doing such and such to…” I stopped listening to him at that point. “Uh, Mike, you are really sweating. Its running down your hand onto that test lead. Maybe you should dry off…” at that point he got stuck. He stood there getting zapped and couldn’t let go. He was humming. I knew what was happening and body checked him to the floor. Everyone was stunned. “Bob, wtf? Why you do that to Mike? He’s going to kick your ass now” dude was a Tae Kwon Do instructor. A very fit 275 pound man. He gets up, flexes a bit like the hulk. And says, “Thanks Bob. We wont talk about this? Its our secret?” I said, “sure” I saw him again almost ten years later in Korea. He didn’t recognize me. So I began to tell the story. As soon as I got the the part about 4 phase power coming in our office… He said, “BOB! Yeah! I remember you now! Dont tell that story. I’ve already heard it, and that story pisses me of.” All the guys sitting around said, “yeah, he hates hearing stupid stories, especially once he heard them again. I’m banned from telling the Quasimodo joke around him. Later, in the truck, that same guy started telling the joke when Mike was not around. Mike got in the truck a few minutes later and just gave him such a stink eye. When he finished we all laughed. Not so much at the Joke, but at Mikes face. And then the guy said, “W-W-When did you get here?” Mike, “Dont you worry about that. You’ll be target dummy for a little bit. I need some practice”
