#8 Specialty Retail: Retail Insurance

There’s more to setting up an insurance plan than getting property and theft protection for your store. For example, shops have to protect themselves from liability when renting ski or bike equipment. What insurance do you need when hosting an event? What about when you ask an employee to participate in an outdoor activity where he/she could get hurt?    In this episode, we speak with Rob Martin, director of Outdoor Sports Insurance (a program from Horizon Agency, an OIA vendor partner). Rob will comment on the unique insurance needs of outdoor retailers and give advice on how they can best protect themselves. Joe Butler of Black Creek Outfitters and Bob Wade of Ute Mountaineer also chime in with their experiences.   Relevant links: Rob Martin: (952) 914-7165, rob@horizonagency.com Outdoor Sports Insurance - http://www.outdoorsportsins.com/ Ute Mountaineer - http://www.utemountaineer.com/ Black Creek Outfitters - https://www.blackcreekoutfitters.com/
