What scares people about shopping for personal or commercial insurance? That they don't understand it!   On average 95% of people have little to no knowledge about the many nuances pertaining to their policies, such as policy coverage or exclusions.  This can be problematic because, if one does not understand the type of insurance they need, then they may not be fully covered or find their rates higher than necessary.

Why Is Personal Or Commercial Insurance Important?

Most individuals understand what personal insurance is - for example, life insurance, auto insurance, home owner's insurance, and so forth.  However, what about commercial insurance?   If you own your own business, then you are going to need this type of insurance, no matter if you own an auto garage, are a landlord with a multifamily property, or so forth.  Commercial insurance, like personal insurance, will protect you in the event that a liability occurs.  For example, if a worker injures themselves in your auto garage or a  tenant falls down a flight of stairs - commercial insurance helps cover you!

What Don't People Understand About Insurance

Most individuals do not understand the nuances of insurance.  For example, what kind of exclusions might apply?  Exclusions are essentially that which is not covered by the policy.  What about liabilities, or the policies themselves.  There is simply a  great deal of information that goes into  insurance.  Having the right agent, one that will help alleviate any concerns and explain all of these factors, is ideal.
