When SuretyBonds.com Founder and CEO Josh Kayser offered to spearhead the latest project pitched by the Veterans United Home Loans marketing team back in 2009, he had no idea where that road would lead. Ten years later, <\/span>SuretyBonds.com<\/span><\/a> has grown to more than 50 employees, undergone two corporate buyouts, and serviced more than 100,000 clients across all 50 states.<\/span><\/p>\n

The idea for SuretyBonds.com struck back in 2008 as Veterans United sought an agency to manage the bonds required for hundreds of their mortgage professionals. At the time nobody in the surety industry provided online bonding services. Although some websites collected contact information to generate leads, they were still operating as traditional insurance agencies that required physical documentation to fulfill even the simplest of requests. The marketing team recognized a major opportunity as consumers increasingly turned to the internet for their insurance needs, so they bought the SuretyBonds.com domain. Kayser was given free reign to see what he could do with it. Ultimately he built a brand and a business that turned the surety industry on its head. <\/span><\/p>\n

Surety bonds are a type of insurance that guarantee some sort of obligation \u2013 typically professional performance. Individuals familiar with surety bonds usually think of contract bonds that guarantee construction project completion. Similarly, probate bonds guarantee the completion of court-appointed obligations. Commercial license and permit bonds guarantee professional obligations outlined in federal, state, and local licensing statutes.<\/span><\/p>\n

The SuretyBonds.com team issues hundreds of contract, probate, and commercial bonds each week, but the company has carved out a special niche for small business owners seeking bonding services for professional licensing. A significant portion of the company\u2019s client base has never been bonded before. Their typical client is looking for a fast, easy, and affordable way to acquire a legally required insurance product they usually don\u2019t know much about.<\/span><\/p>\n

The company\u2019s stated mission is to provide efficient, innovative, and informed surety bond solutions nationwide. When brainstorming, pitching, and executing new initiatives, the company\u2019s values guide decision-making for all employees whether they work in sales, customer service, marketing, or web development.<\/span><\/p>\n
