The Ohio small-business owner's starter pack
A Business Owners Policy (BOP) is the foundation: general liability + business property in one bundle. Most small Ohio businesses (under $1M revenue, under 50 employees) qualify and save 10–25% over buying coverage separately.
On top of the BOP, layer in professional liability (E&O) if you give advice, workers' comp through the Ohio BWC if you have employees, cyber liability if you handle customer data, and commercial auto if vehicles are used for the business.
Industry-specific needs
Retail shops need property coverage that includes inventory, fixtures, and signage — plus business interruption if you ever have to close after a covered loss.
Consultants, agencies, and professional services need errors & omissions (E&O / professional liability) — general liability does NOT cover claims arising from your professional advice or work product.
eCommerce and tech-enabled businesses need cyber liability — both first-party (your data breach response) and third-party (lawsuits from affected customers).
Cyber, EPL, and the modern risks
Cyber liability insurance is no longer optional — ransomware attacks on small Ohio businesses tripled between 2020 and 2024. A $500–$1,200/year cyber policy can fund a six-figure incident response.
Employment Practices Liability (EPL) covers harassment, discrimination, and wrongful termination claims — exposures that even the best-managed shops face. For a few hundred a year, it is one of the highest-value lines we recommend.
