Imagine your small business client loses a laptop or business smartphone, or gets a call from a customer that a credit card was improperly used after a visit to your client's store. Who does that small business call now? What do they do? What are the fines?
If your clients accept credit cards or collect personal information such as email or phone numbers, they have a cyber liability exposure.
Merchants of all kinds should carry cyber coverage. Lawyers, CPAs, podiatrists, consultants, counselors, taxi operators, restaurants and bars, you name it. And as a Big “I" member, you have access to coverage through Big "I" Markets: the Cyber Liability – Small Business Solution, which you can offer to most small businesses with less than 50 employees at just $200.
The ineligible list is small, including only banks, credit unions, payment processors, gambling organizations, the adult industry, social media and networking firms, cloud providers, and security broker dealers.
How to Market Cyber
At a minimum, email every small business in your client roster to offer coverage. We've done the work for you by creating this
concise sample letter outlining the product features. You can also add
claims examples. Use letter or email as a reason to check in with a call or personal visit.
Coverage is "primary to other." If your client asks for more coverage, offer consultation after providing instant protection. If your client desires higher limits, you also have access to industry leader Travelers Wrap+ through Big "I" Markets.
Enjoy a Simple Sales Process
Binding could not be easier. Enjoy 15% commission, direct billing and the confidence that comes with using an insurer rated A (Excellent) by A.M. Best.
