YOUR BUSINESS IS YOUR INVESTMENT. BUT WHO PROTECTS IT?
I saw this video in FB and naka-relate ako. I once had a conversation with a prospect who was already my customer in my previous construction supply and electrical panel board company.
Since I knew he was running a business and had a family, I took the opportunity to introduce my other line of service—financial planning and insurance from Pru Life UK.
I asked him if he would be open to discussing his financial needs and exploring how I could help him protect his family and business.
His response?
“Mas maayo pang ibalik nako ang akong kwarta sa negosyo. At least, makita nako ang kita adlaw-adlaw. Sa insurance, gamay ra man ang balik.”
And honestly, I understood his point.
As a business owner, he wants to grow his money. He sees the daily income, the opportunities to expand, and the potential returns from reinvesting in his business.
I respected his decision. Dili man pud nato pwede pugson ang usa ka tawo sa butang nga dili pa niya makita ang value.
But here’s something worth thinking about. 🤔
What happens to the business you’ve worked so hard to build if something unexpected happens to you?
Who will support your family?
Who will help cover the financial obligations?
Will your business have enough resources to continue operating, or will your family be forced to sell assets just to get by?
Your business can generate income, create opportunities, and build wealth. But protecting that wealth is also part of being a responsible business owner.
Growing your business and protecting your business should go hand in hand.
Insurance is not meant to replace your business investment. It serves a different purpose: to help protect you and your loved ones financially against covered risks, depending on the policy you choose.
You work hard to build your business. You deserve to have a plan that helps protect what you’ve built, too.
I’m not here to convince everyone to buy insurance. I’m here to encourage business owners, breadwinners, and entrepreneurs to make informed financial decisions.
Because sometimes, we spend so much time thinking about how to make more money that we forget to ask:
“If something happens to me, will the people I love and the business I built be financially prepared?”
