Getting “the letter” from your insurance carrier about an upcoming audit? Take a breath this happens every year, and it doesn’t have to be stressful. 👇
Here’s what actually trips business owners up:
📁 Payroll records that don’t match what was estimated at renewal
👷 Forgetting to separate owner/officer payroll
🧾 Not having a clean breakdown of subcontractor certificates of insurance
📞 Waiting until the auditor calls to start pulling records
The businesses that sail through their audits are the ones who treat it like a checkup, not a pop quiz, a little prep goes a long way.
If you got an audit notice and aren’t sure where to start, give Grimes Insurance a call. We’ve walked local business owners through this exact thing, and we’re happy to look over what you’ve got before you send anything in.
