Marcus Webb

Founder & Lead Editor

Austin, TX

Marcus Webb is a personal finance writer who has spent more than eight years covering home, auto, and life insurance for American consumers. He founded Bundle Insurance Guide in 2024 after seeing how many families were overpaying for coverage simply because carriers made multi-policy discounts needlessly complicated.

Before launching the site, Marcus worked as a consumer-focused insurance researcher and reviewed thousands of bundle quotes across every major carrier in the US market — State Farm, Allstate, Progressive, Nationwide, Farmers, USAA, Liberty Mutual, and more. His writing focuses on translating dense carrier documents and state-by-state rate variations into plain-English guidance that helps readers make smarter coverage decisions in under 10 minutes.

Marcus holds a B.S. in Finance. He lives in Austin, Texas with his family and, when he isn't reading carrier filings or NAIC reports, enjoys hiking in the Texas Hill Country.

Editorial Philosophy

Reader value first

Every article has to answer a real question better than anything else on the first page of Google. If it doesn't, it doesn't get published.

Evidence over opinion

Rates, savings percentages, and carrier claims are checked against NAIC filings, the Insurance Information Institute, and AM Best before they appear on the site.

Independence from affiliates

Affiliate relationships with carriers never influence rankings, ratings, or recommendations. When Marcus recommends a carrier, it's because the data supports it.

Respect for the reader's time

Bundle Insurance Guide aims to get readers to a better decision in under 10 minutes. No padded intros. No lead-gen forms dressed up as calculators.

Professional Note

Marcus Webb is a writer and researcher, not a licensed insurance agent. Bundle Insurance Guide does not sell insurance and is not a licensed insurance agency. Content on this site is informational only — readers should always verify current rates with a licensed agent or directly with their insurer before making coverage decisions.
