(DESCRIPTION)
A series of shots depicts various equipment: A jackhammer breaks through hard ground as a second person uses a tool to sweep away the debris; a man maneuvers a forklift inside a warehouse; a crane looms before us.

Does quoting contractors equipment insurance have you busy as a jackhammer operator, busy as a forklift driver, busy as a crane operator or simply busy as a bee?
(DESCRIPTION)
Now the animated bee buzzes about. It stops at the outline of a stopwatch that rapidly fills in with yellow as it reaches three minutes. Then it flies over three squares numbered 1-3. The last square reads "3 screens."
(SPEECH)
Then you're going to love the streamlined experience of Travis. All it takes is three minutes and three screens to quote and issue contractors equipment insurance.
(DESCRIPTION)
The bee stops at a group of four pill buttons and clicks each one. Text appears on each button after being clicked: Flexible, Coverage Options, Equipment Values and Up to 5 Million Dollars. Then the bee flies over to a group of three radio buttons labeled Fast, Easy and Flexible and selects each one.
(SPEECH)
Finding flexible coverage options for equipment values up to $5 million has never been so fast, easy and flexible.

Top three reasons your customers need contractors equipment insurance
When presenting this product to customers, emphasize these key benefits:
Prevents costly downtime. Equipment breakdowns or theft can halt projects for days or weeks. This coverage gets contractors back to work faster.
Meets contract requirements. Many general contractors and project owners require subcontractors to carry equipment coverage. This policy provides the proof needed to win bids.
Protects cash flow. Contractors invest heavily in equipment. Insurance helps prevent self-funding major losses or depleting working capital.
