Marcus L. Barber, publisher
Marcus L. Barber is the publisher of Fast Insurance Group and the founder of Digital Solomon, a digital publishing and marketing studio in Gastonia, North Carolina.
Insurance background
Marcus held a property and casualty insurance producer license in Maryland from 2010 to 2012. He is not currently licensed to sell insurance or give insurance advice in any state.
Property and casualty licensing covers the lines most of our guides are about: auto, homeowners, renters and commercial insurance for small businesses. That past licensing is why our guides focus on the parts of a policy that matter at claim time, like limits, deductibles, exclusions and how a claim is valued, and on the questions worth asking a licensed agent before you buy.
Marketing and publishing
Marcus has worked in digital marketing for about nine years, including programmatic advertising and measurement. He founded Digital Solomon to build useful, independent websites and the systems behind them.
His role at Fast Insurance Group
Marcus sets the site's editorial direction and is responsible for what it publishes. Guides are written by theFast Insurance Group editorial team using the process in our editorial standards: primary sources first, every guide checked against its sources, and clear disclosure of how wemake money.
What this doesn't mean
- Fast Insurance Group is not an insurance agency or broker and doesn't sell policies.
- Nothing on this site is personal insurance, legal or financial advice.
- For a recommendation about your own coverage, talk to an agent licensed in your state. You can check any agent's license with the NAIC Insurance Agent Search.
