Business Insurance

[pink-north]

I'm looking for business insurance. I know there was one mentioned on this site before, but I can't find the thread. Does anyone know of a good relatively inexpensive insurance provider (Canadian if I could get it)?

If you make under 5000.00 a year you can go through this company.

www.bombainsurance.com

After 5 grand you have to join either Soapmakers Guild or HBN to get insurance.

I checked out both of the sites, but they don't cover anyone residing in Canada. Which is a huge bummer. I asked the agent who covers my homeowners insurance and I'm trying to find something less costly. Are there any other Canadians out there with this dilema?

Here is some info I posted to another thread:
*******************************************
Here is 1 company that offers insuarnace: The Soapmaker's Guild , membership cost with insurance will be $480. If you choose to increase the insurance coverage to $2 million, the additional cost is $55.00

Here is another: Handmade Beauty Network membership is $100.00/year, insurance is $395.00 for one year for a total of $495.00.

Here are a few more off the top of my head that cover bath & body: Consolidated Insurance, The Hartford (if you are over 50) & Benchmark Insurance.

Just make sure that buying insurance for a home based business does not cancel out your home owners insurance."

Smelli is right about bombain, they are $250.00 a year, right?

Thanks for the info and help guys, but the Soapmakers Guild will only insure me if I also have and American address. This won't help me. I'm really trying to avoid $1,700.00/yr. There must be something for us Canadians.

I just got off the phone with my insurance agent turned broker and the best they could give me is $1,700.00/yr, but only if I do all my business in Canada. I wouldn't be covered for the U.S. or overseas. I really don't want to do this without insurance. Does anyone have any ideas?
