As your embroidery business grows, so does what you have to lose — equipment, customer goods, and your income. Insurance can protect against accidents, damage, and liability. Here is an overview of what to consider; speak with an insurance professional for your situation.
Types to Consider
- •General liability for customer or third-party claims
- •Equipment/property coverage for machines and inventory
- •Coverage for customer goods you're working on
- •Home-based business coverage if you work from home
- •Commercial coverage if you have a studio
Why It Matters
A damaged customer order, a stolen machine, or a liability claim could be financially devastating without coverage. Insurance turns a potential catastrophe into a manageable event.
When to Get It
Many start without insurance and add it as their equipment value and order volume grow — especially before taking on large commercial accounts, which may require proof of coverage.
Keep Costs Reasonable
Small home-business policies are often affordable. Shop around and match coverage to your actual risk so you are protected without overpaying.
