There's no business like small business

This campaign is a tribute to the passion and dedication of small business owners, from accountants to photographers and more. Hiscox supports small businesses as they pursue their passions. Meet an accountant, a photographer, and our new mascot, the ‘Hiscox fella’.

The accountant

This 30-second spot shows an accountant who’s living her best small-business-owner life, until the unexpected happens and water from the pipes pored down. No worries, though — she’s protected by Hiscox insurance, so she’s back up and running fast.

The photographer

In our second 30-second spot, a photographer is sidelined by a toppled rig and a shattered camera, until Hiscox comes along, replaces his damaged property and gets him back to work.

 

See how the magic happened during this glimpse behind the scenes
