Sometimes, the business grows as quickly as the kids do. COUNTRY client Landon Parker experienced this first-hand. Kudos to him for reminding us to teach our kids how hard work and determination can lead to success.

We understand those values, too. That’s why if you’re a small business owner, we’re the right choice to insure your business.

Every small business has its own unique personality, which is why you need custom insurance to protect all you have worked to achieve. Do you have the right protection for yours? Here’s what you should ask yourself.

• When was the last time you reviewed your policy with your current insurance carrier?
• If your business was destroyed, would your current insurance be enough to replace all your property, including your inventory?
• Will your current liability limits protect your assets in a lawsuit?
• How are your customers protected against credit card fraud?
• Do you have coverage that protects your customers' property when it's in your care?
• Do your subcontractors have certificates of insurance listing you as an additional insured?
• When was the last time you took a tool and materials inventory? Do you have proper coverage for those items?
• Do you need to protect your business for electronic data breaches?

We handle insurance and financial services for over 45,000 small businesses, and we’ve filled plenty of coverage gaps that help owners get back to doing what they do best – running their business.

Planning some fun at home this summer? Make sure your backyard is safe for all your favorite activities by using this summer safety checklist.

Pool safety
• Never leave children unattended
• Kids should never be alone in or near a pool (even if they know how to swim)
• Sign your kids up for swimming lessons

Learn emergency skills
• Young children should learn when to get help. Older children and adults should learn CPR and first aid
• Keep a first-aid kit, ring buoys and reaching poles nearby. Easy access to these items could be lifesaving

Install a safety fence
• Make sure your pool safety fence covers all pool sides and has self-closing gates. Also, install locks and alarms on doors with pool access.
• Create and post safety rules and enforce them.

Trampoline safety
• Add safety features
• Make sure your trampoline has padding and netting. An enclosed trampoline can help prevent falls
• Maintain your trampoline
• Inspect your trampoline regularly for missing pads, tears, exposed springs and other issues that could cause injury
• Enforce safety rules: Only one jumper at a time to reduce risk of injury

Playground safety
• Inspect your playground equipment regularly
• Create a safe landing
• Teach playground rules
• Supervise young children at play

Review your home liability insurance limits

Even if you follow all these tips, accidents happen. Keep your liability insurance coverage updated (and consider adding an umbrella liability policy). If you add a pool, trampoline or playground to your yard, meet with your insurance agent to see if you need to increase your home liability coverage. Stay safe and have fun this summer!
