We all need protection against mistakes and hiccups. It is famously said, "The man who made no mistakes, made nothing". Part and parcel of working in business that things can go wrong and it's good to have a way around it.

Once you are trading for yourself you should have Public Liability Insurance and Professional Indemnity. If you have any employees or subcontractors ensure you have Employer's Liability Insurance. 

Which ones you really do need, which ones you don't? 

Most importantly you should have personal insurances to provide income in times of accident or sickness and long term illnesses. You may already have some of these provisions but we remind you to review them regularly.

We can guide you on the correct insurances for you and your business. As your needs will change you may find yourself paying for something you are unable to claim on. Think of the PPI fiasco where many took and paid (especially self-employed) for insurance they could never qualify for a claim. One of our colleagues is a fully qualified financial adviser of over 30 years experience who will happily advise on your relevant needs. 

Social Security Benefits - which ones can you get and when?

Are there any benefits you can claim when starting self-employment? Are there start-up grants, loans or regular support? What about when you are sick, how much help financially can you actually get? One of our team provides advice of Social Security Benefits. Benefits will depend on your current circumstances and family situation.

Business Support Solutions provide a range of outsourced services for small businesses, New start-ups, Subcontractors and Main contractors.. 

During the initial phase of a business it is most important to focus on your key skills such as selling or marketing; to get more work that is. Paperwork, taxation and admin is not really so important. At Business Support Solutions we recognise this and offer solutions to help you achieve your goals quicker and more cost effectively.

EXAMPLE: If you are a joiner subcontractor you are good at joinery or should be. But you will find yourself struggling invoicing customers, keeping HMRC payroll requirements or doing accounts and VAT. You didn't go into business to be an administrator. That's were we come in. Business Support Solutions handles this type of work every week for small traders no matter what they do.
