Protecting your Brand

their brand. Did you know you can be insured to implement a

need and how to avoid being put out of business.
How to Prepare for a
Crisis
Surveys have found that the majority of
businesses, big and small, understand the importance of having a
crisis plan. That said, very few actually have a plan in place. Joe
covers the necessary risks to be prepared for, and how to take
steps in creating plans against those threats.
What is Insurable, and What is
Not
Joe goes into detail about the various liabilities
where companies can find themselves at risk, including what is and
what isn’t insurable.
Broker vs. Agent
There is a
difference between an insurance broker and an insurance agent. Joe
explains who benefits from the two types of insurance
representatives.

cyber breaches and corporate espionage risks, as well as an
emerging risk related to artificial intelligence.
