The Burst - SOS (Ep. 27)
Thanks for checking out this episode of BanktasticTV’s “The Burst.” Here are some important notes about this episode:
One-Touch Bank?
I shared a question from Creative Brand Communication’s Blog last week to see how many FIs would be interested! An architect named Adam Kalkin recently revealed a building that’s opened by a press of a button. Creative Brand’s take was that this is a great idea for FIs! Just to pop open a branch anywhere you can would definitely be a cool move for banks.
News: 3 Waring Signs Your Bank May Fail
Brad shared a good article recently that talked about 3 warning signs that your bank may fail. All 3 of the signs were prevalent with IndyMac right before they went under. Here’s the list:
-Is your bank offering high CD rates & savings rates?
-Does your bank lend heavily in California, Las Vegas or Florida?
-Is your bank being slaughtered by the stock market?
If any of these sound like your bank, you might want to try to make some changes to prevent from going under! And if you can think of any other warning signs for others to look out for, post your comments on this blog, or share them with the Banktastic Community!
Check Out the Vendors Section!
We’ve notice an increase in activity in Vendors section lately! Several people have worked to add new companies and share their reviews, and we thank them for that! So if you haven’t checked out what’s out there lately, head on over now and get to rating! If you have any questions about rating a vendor or claiming a vendor profile, just shoot an email to lisa@banktastic.com!
