Strapped for time. Car insurance too complicated. It'ss what consumers say, and it'ss being addressed by Australia'ss newest online car insurance brand, The Buzz.
The Buzz (http://www.thebuzzinsurance.com.au) is part of Insurance Australia Group (http://www.iag.com.au) (IAG) and the first car insurer to be built entirely from the feedback of Australian internet consumers.
It'ss built for speed. In an industry first, people can get a quick car insurance quote in 60 seconds and under. It also includes a host of other online 'sself-serve's features consumers
have requested, including Live Chat.
Consumers can also choose exactly what insurance cover they want for their car, and only pay for that.
The Buzz CEO, Jacki Johnson, said about 3,000 people joined Australia'ss first online insurance 'sco-creation's community to help develop a new online insurance experience.
Called My Insurance Ideas (http://www.thebuzzexchange.com.au/home/), the community generated more than 1,000 ideas which helped guide
the development of The Buzz.
The Buzz has been developed from the voice of Australians, Ms Johnson said.
People told us they want insurance products and services that are flexible and that suit their own needs. Importantly, they want choice and control over what they do - after all, that'ss
why they'sre using the internet.
We'sve also put a big emphasis on making our insurance easy to understand because people told us they didn'st understand what they were buying.
Ms Johnson said The Buzz would continue to 'sco-create's with people to develop its business.
Our business is based on what consumers want. People are buying insurance to protect important personal property. We want to make it easy for people to look after their assets and
there'ss no better way than to get people involved in shaping the way we develop our products and services, she said.
