This is Beauty & Bodywork Insurance

Insurance: it’s a necessity in the fabric of our modern lives. With it, we protect our financial assets, the businesses we’ve worked to build, and we rest easy at night with peace of mind knowing we are safe from potential financial ruin.

Understanding this need for insurance, BBI decided to challenge the traditional methods of finding coverage. The clunky, outdated way of getting a policy through an agent took time and money away from the people who needed it the most. So in 2012, we automated the process in favor of beauty professionals.

Three Things We Believe About Insurance

1. Getting coverage should be quick.

Our online application eliminates the need to meet with agents, fill out paperwork, and wait days for a quote. Simply click, quote, and buy insurance instantly from any device at any time.

2. Policies should be easy to understand.

Insurance can be full of unclear terms and coverages. This unfair practice leads to invalid policies, costly claims, or working uninsured. We clear the confusion with a simple checkout process and free online resources.

3. Rates should be fair and affordable.

We competitively price our policies at a lower cost to you. Why? Because we believe you shouldn’t break the bank for quality coverage. It’s time you save on the protection you need.

Our History

Over the years we have listened to the needs of beauty professionals, molding our policies around you.

2011

Development Begins

2011: Beauty professionals needed a more affordable insurance option that worked for them and their busy careers. Recognizing this, we first began developing an all new online insurance policy to serve beauty and bodywork professionals.

Our program first began under the direction of our sister company, Veracity Insurance—a program administrator and general agent located just South of Salt Lake City with over 40,000 small business accounts serviced.

2011

2012

BWI Launches

2012: After months of planning and performing market research, Veracity launched the Bodywork Insurance (BWI) program. We also began our long standing partnership with Great American Insurance Company, an A+ rated carrier providing top quality coverage to businesses for more than 150 years.

2012

2013

Full-time Staff Hired

2013: With over 200% growth over the previous year, Veracity hired a full-time staff to manage the growth of BWI. This allowed us to continue to provide a superior experience while looking for ways to expand our offerings.

2014

BBI Rebrand and Improvement

2014: Veracity listened to the feedback and opinions of its customers by modernizing the functionality and usability of our website. With the website redesign came a new name: Beauty and Bodywork Insurance (BBI). The great service and superior policy remains the same as our team continues to improve our program and work closely with those in the beauty industry.
