In today’s fast-moving world, planning for the unexpected isn’t just smart—it’s necessary. Whether you’re leading a remote team, building a startup, or managing a growing workforce, protecting what matters most should never be an afterthought. This is where Insurance One steps in—not just as an insurance provider, but as a trusted partner helping you and your team navigate life’s uncertainties with confidence.

Why Coverage Matters for Modern Workforces

For remote-first companies, distributed teams, and digital founders, insurance might not always be top of mind. But the truth is, when you’re scaling fast, unexpected challenges can surface just as quickly—employee illnesses, data loss, or even natural disasters affecting your operations. Having a clear, accessible insurance plan is no longer a luxury, but a core part of running a resilient business.

Real Story: A Remote Startup’s Wake-Up Call

Laura, co-founder of a tech startup with a fully remote team, learned this the hard way. When a wildfire hit one of her team member’s homes in Colorado, she was caught off guard. “We realized we didn’t have a clear policy in place for this kind of event,” she shared. “We didn’t know how to support him financially or emotionally. It was a turning point.”

She connected with One Insurance Agency, a team known for its thoughtful, human-centered approach. “They walked us through everything—from personal coverage to business interruption policies. They weren’t pushy, just practical,” Laura said. Within weeks, her company had a flexible plan tailored to both their business needs and their people’s realities.

What Makes One Insurance Agency Different

One Insurance Agency doesn’t approach insurance with a one-size-fits-all mindset. Instead, they sit down with you (virtually or in person) and learn how your business actually works. They ask the right questions:

• Do your employees work from home, in shared offices, or internationally?

• Are you hiring contractors or full-time employees?

• What kind of coverage do your team members already have?

From there, they offer solutions—not scripts. It’s about understanding, not selling.

You won’t find overwhelming policy language or confusing bundles. You’ll find clarity, options, and the space to ask, “What happens if...?” without feeling silly.

Types of Coverage to Consider

Depending on your stage of growth and team structure, different types of coverage might make sense. Here’s a simple breakdown:

No matter the size of your company, Insurance One helps make sense of these choices—so you’re not picking policies blindly.

Why Fax Over IP Matters in the Process

You might wonder how technology plays into all this. One of the biggest shifts in insurance today is the move away from outdated processes like paper documentation and slow communication.

Fax over IP (FoIP) is one such innovation. It allows insurance providers like One Insurance Agency to securely and quickly transmit documents over the internet, without relying on physical fax machines.

For remote teams, this means:

• Faster policy approval times

• Immediate access to signed documents

• Lower costs and less office equipment

Instead of waiting days for policy paperwork to be processed, you can get coverage sorted in hours—all while working from your laptop at home.

Practical Tips When Choosing Insurance as a Remote Leader

If you’re a project manager, HR leader, or startup founder, here are a few actionable things to consider when shopping for insurance:

1. Think beyond office walls: Your team may live in multiple states or countries. Make sure your insurance provider can offer flexible coverage.

2. Ask about remote-specific risks: Data breaches, device theft, or power outages are more common with distributed workforces.

3. Simplify the experience: A good provider should help you understand the process—not overwhelm you with terms.

4. Review policies annually: As your team grows or contracts, your insurance needs change. Set a reminder to revisit your plan each year.
