How much does Colorado business insurance cost?

Insurance companies create CO business insurance quotes by looking at several factors related to your business’ risk, including:

1. Your industry

The risk of work-related illness or injury in your work affects your business insurance monthly or annual premium. Jobs that are higher-risk, such as construction, often have higher needs (and insurance costs) than low-risk desk jobs, such as an accountant.

2. Your number of employees

Your business insurance might cost more if you have employees than if you’re a sole proprietor.

3. Your business location

If you’re in a densely populated city you may pay more for business insurance than if you work in a small town.

4. Your years of work experience

A proven history of workplace safety and success in your industry can impact your insurance rate. A new business owner could pay more than a veteran in their field.

5. Your insurance claims history

Your record of safety, losses and claims can have an impact on your insurance premium.

6. Your insurance coverage limits

Higher insurance coverage limits on your policy can give you more protection over more covered incidents. But it can also increase the cost of your insurance and make for a higher deductible.

The best way to know exactly what you’ll pay for business insurance coverage is to check prices specifically for your business.

What type of Colorado commercial insurance coverage do you need?

Policyholders who buy business liability insurance in CO often bundle several types of business insurance. Coverage options include:

Colorado General Liability insurance

Colorado general liability insurance is also known as business liability insurance. It can help cover your business for medical costs from injuries to non-employees or property damage you or your employees cause to other people’s property.

Many commercial landlords in the State of Colorado will ask that you carry general liability coverage before you can get a lease. It’s also common for clients to require this liability policy before they’ll sign a contract with your business.

Colorado contractors and cleaning businesses can also get tools and equipment insurance coverage (also called T&E, or inland marine insurance) with their general liability policy to help repair or replace business gear that’s lost, stolen or damaged on a job site.

Colorado Workers’ Compensation insurance

Workers’ compensation insurance in Colorado can help if you or your employees suffer a work-related illness or injury. This business insurance policy, a requirement for many businesses in the state, can help cover the costs of medical treatment, lost wages or job retaining while a worker recovers.

Without workers’ comp, a business owner’s out-of-pocket expenses could be significant after a workplace accident.

Colorado Commercial Property insurance

Commercial property insurance can help pay for damaged or destroyed business property and inventory after a covered event, such as water, fire or wind damage. And it can help cover the loss of business income if you need to shutter temporarily for business interruptions.

Colorado Professional Liability insurance (also called Errors and Omissions insurance, or E&O)

Colorado professional liability insurance, also known as errors and omissions insurance (E&O), could help if a client accuses you of making a professional mistake that causes them financial loss, such as missing a deadline or a miscalculation.

For example, if you work in professional services and your mathematical error causes a client monetary loss and they file a lawsuit, this coverage could help you cover some legal fees.

I am so excited

I am totally excited about my new insurance for my small business. I am happy that the price was in a range that I can afford, the terms were easy to understand and it was so simple to purchase my first policy. I look forward to doing business with you in the future.

Easiest insurance purchase – EVER!

I was looking around trying to compare insurance and I am so lucky I found NEXT. I was able to compare levels of coverage, and all the options, without pressure from a salesperson or time limits. I was able to check out prices and it was more coverage for less than the “traditional” company I looked at.

Happy small business owner!

I needed liability insurance for my new small business brick & mortar location. I got the run around from another company, but NEXT provided a competitive insurance quote in a timely manner. I now have the insurance that I need and it was stress-free!
