What is a Minnesota Business Service Bond?

A Minnesota Business Service Bond protects your business from unforeseen events that will be detrimental to your business such as dishonest acts committed by your employees.

 

What are its benefits?

Businesses, particularly those that provide home services by skilled tradesmen, are increasingly acquiring a business service bond to:

  • Safeguard the customer in case one of their employees steals a personal property inside the customer’s home
  • Improve their competitive advantage
  • Serve as a marketing tool. By having a Business Service Bond, you are guaranteeing that your employees are dependable and will provide great service.
  • Diminishes the risk of business failure
  • Lower the perceived uncertainty that the customers might have. Having a stranger in your home is quite unnerving. Many what-ifs may occur inside a customer’s mind.  You can calm those by letting your potential customers know that they are eligible for monetary claims if such happens.
