Paid content
It’s not unusual for podcasters working at home to think that their studios and gear are covered by their homeowner’s insurance. However, if that equipment is used to generate income, it’d likely be considered “business equipment” and excluded from a claim.
Check with Laura Donelan at MusicPro Insurance to make sure the tools of your trade are properly covered. MusicPro is a 20+ year old company owned by ASCAP and Sterling Risk specializing in protecting music and AV gear. For the “white glove service” MusicPro is known for, call Laura today at 1-800-MusicPro, or reach out by email at ldonelan@musicproinsurance.com.
