What is insurance for creative & media consultants?

Dedicated cover to enable you to keep doing what you love

As a creative consultant you will be offering a professional and creative service to your clients, making creative and media recommendations for businesses who will then rely on your expert advice. The work you do can ultimately leave you open to claims from clients who might deem the work they received as being inadequate and having led them to have suffered a financial loss of some kind. Even if the claim turns out to be spurious the cost of legal action alone can be costly. With the right policy, including Professional Indemnity cover you can protect your consultancy business against a wide range of risks and perils. 

Through The Insurance Octopus, you will be able to put together a bespoke creative and media consultant’s insurance policy that suits your business needs. 

What your Creative & Media Consultant Insurance policy includes

Employers Liability Insurance

Employers Liability insurance is required by law if you have one or more employees. Standard Employers Liability cover is £10m and will protect you as the employer against claims from your staff should they be hurt when working for you. 

Professional Indemnity Insurance for Creative & Media professionals

Professional Indemnity Insurance or PI Insurance, will protect you and/or your business against any financial or trading loss that may be caused as a result of bad advice or a mistake made in work. Professional Indemnity Cover limits from £50,000 to £10m.

Public Liability Insurance

Public Liability cover protects you if a customer or a member of the public is injured, or their property is damaged. Public liability Insurance protects you against the cost of repairs or any legal proceedings that could be filed against you. Standard levels of cover are available from £1m to £5m, with additional levels of cover available upon request and subject to insurer’s terms and conditions.

Legal Expenses Cover for Creative & Media consultants

Legal Expenses cover can help you with the costs of defending legal action.

Add on covers to consider:

Business Interruption, Personal Accident, Offshore Working and more are all additional add-ons that can be increased or decreased as required. By having flexibility with your Business Insurance policy through The Insurance Octopus, you can make sure your insurance is just what you will need. 

Why you need Creative & Media Consultant Insurance?

If your business provides a professional service or offers some form of advice on a consultancy basis then your clients have an expectation of receiving expert guidance and a good service. If this service is not given, the customer could then make a legal claim. As a creative media consultant, the potential cost to your business if a claim is made can be high – as well as legal expenses, there could also be compensation costs to pay. If you are not covered correctly it could be detrimental to your business. 

The Insurance Octopus can source a business insurance package specifically tailored to the needs of a creative consultancy, by working with a selection of UK insurers providing the widest choice of PI insurance. We can source and add cover for your business equipment at home, in the office or whilst on the move, providing options for covering you in sector specific situations as required.
