Since business insurance clients don’t normally participate in review sites like Clearsurance, it’s no surprise their reviews are insufficient to score. However, they have outstanding Better Business Bureau results, so that should account for something. 🙂
Happy employees tend to create a positive customer experience. As a result, GUARD Insurance’s good ratings for claims and customer service reflect their employees’ levels of job satisfaction.

How much does GUARD Insurance cost?
GUARD Insurance does get positive reviews from insureds for their customer service and claims handling. So, many small business owners may be wondering if GUARD is expensive.
Not really! Sure, GUARD offers excellent protection and service, but they are also an affordable business insurance option. You’ll have a lot of questions before you buy business insurance, so let’s help you understand what drives the cost:
- Business industry. Certain industries have higher risks than others. So, you may find your insurance rates reflect that increased risk. For example, construction companies will likely pay more for business insurance coverage than accounting firms.
- Company payroll: Costs for certain types of insurance coverage can depend on your business’s payroll. Workers’ compensation, for example, uses payroll as a factor for the premium amount.
- The number of employees. Certain types of business insurance can use the number of your employees as a factor for insurance cost, like general liability insurance.
- The type of coverage you choose. The amount of coverage you select has an impact on your premium. For example, a small business policy with a $1 million/$2 million aggregate, will generally cost more than a policy with a $1 million/$1 million aggregate.
- Your location. Your state of residence can have a huge impact on your car insurance bill, whether you live in a pricey state like Louisiana or Michigan or one where insurance is cheap, like Maine or North Dakota.
- Claims history. A business with a clean claims history demonstrates safety and experience. This can result in a lower insurance cost.
To best understand the cost of business insurance, you should compare business insurance quotes with an insurance agent.
