SEG Acquisition Process/Tips
7. Challenges
1. Getting past the gatekeeper for an appointment
with decision maker
2. Explain why the CU matters
3. Reaching Penetration Goals Member Acquisition
8. “We shouldn’t have to work as hard as we have.”
“We’re finding that it seems to be becoming harder
for banks to get into companies. Business owners
are weary of dealing with them.”
“Wachovia has a Wachovia@Work program, but
in New Jersey, community banks do not offer the
types of programs to compete with us.”
Sean McDonald
Director, Business Development Marketing
Liberty Savings Federal Credit Union
Jersey City, NJ
12. Before the SEG Signs
Research company’s clients (website, Google, press
releases, etc). If company has common relationships:
Ask common SEGs for testimonial directly to decision maker
Ask common partners for personal introduction
Research if decision maker/owner is in organizations or
professional groups
Use and leverage all professional contacts
Return referrals to those who give them
Network!
“Cold calling stinks … no one likes it!”
14. “After they get to know me, it’s easier to approach
them about the CU.”
“BD Professionals need to find ways to effectively
build relationships. Get them to know YOU. I try to
help a SEG get new business before I even talk about
the Credit Union.”
Sean McDonald
Director, Business Development Marketing
Liberty Savings Federal Credit Union
Jersey City, NJ
15. After the SEG Signs
Arrange on-site to speak to all staff (staff meeting, training
session, financial literacy seminar)
“Maintain Excellent Credit”
“Managing Money in Difficult Times”
Ask for permission to include “Stuffer” in the next payroll to
introduce CU
If SEG has intranet, ask for CU to be included as a company
benefit for employee and their families
Target agreement to let CU in periodically throughout year
Provide Welcome Kit/application/info to be included in
“new-hire” packets
Get one or more ambassadors to serve as liaison
Ambassador must be trained and enthusiastic about CU
16. “On-sites are fine but they need to be advertised
AND endorsed by the decision maker. Sitting in a
cafeteria or break room for hours on end is a waste
of time unless people know that you’re there and
what you’re all about BEFOREHAND.”
Sean McDonald
Director, Business Development Marketing
Liberty Savings Federal Credit Union
Jersey City, NJ
17.
18. Lessons Learned
When dealing with a SEG owner/decision maker, you need to
realize that they, themselves, may have no need for a CU.
“Sell” it by focusing on how offering CU membership will
ultimately benefit their company (more productive
employees, owner will look like a hero)
Try not to agree to on-sites where they say, “You can sit in our
break room for a few hours and see what happens.” Your
time is valuable and what you offer is important for members.
Your visit should be treated with respect. Advertise visit and, if
possible distribute information before hand.
Your ambassador is key … They need to be a referral source.
There’s nothing wrong with having more than 1 ambassador.
“Heck, have 1 for each department! The point is, you
need to have a credit union CHAMPION in every SEG.”
19. Lessons Learned
You’ll lose contact with your SEGS overtime if new employees
are not communicated to. Getting in front of new hires, either
in person or through promotional material is important.
Getting SEGs signed is the easy part. Getting employees to
join is hard.
20. Results
“We’ve always had better success making an
‘in-person’ pitch rather than a direct mail piece or
cold call. Using the Networking methodology, we
have signed on almost 150 new SEGs.”

25. Company Relationship
Position the CU as an employer profit and benefit enhancer
401K contributions
Flex Spending
Focus on key employer decision maker
Keep a “Little Black Book” (Birthdays, Anniversaries, Family info., etc.)
“We don’t just focus on one person.
People come and go and you don’t want
anyone in the organization to think that
you treat anyone else special. I’ll often
know 4-5 people in a SEG very well.”
26. Company Relationship
Explain the greater business services opportunity
SEG Related Seminars
“Retail Credit Card Fraud Identification”
Relationship Pricing
27. Company Relationship
Demonstrate that employees want financial education
Build effective employer support for the CU
Partnerships
Sponsorships
Picnics
Target, specialize and focus on selected SEGs
• # of Employees
• Do they pay on time?
• General company background
“Don’t be
afraid to turn
down a SEG.”
28. Recruit Members
Incent member enrolment, not contracts produced
MPECU targets 4-6 products per new member
Dedicate significant resources to the SEG program
Management
Branch Managers
Build employee awareness to achieve success
Meet and Greets
Flyers/Stuffers
Offer a “can’t miss” product to build membership
Lifestyle Marketing
Use credit union ambassadors effectively
30. Community Outreach
Pursue a special SEG strategy if yours is a community
credit union
“Join organizations”: Chamber, Rotary, etc.
Sponsor activities, or be on boards that build
community and awareness
31. “A SEG must be carefully managed and promoted.
Credit unions cannot take for granted that once
recruited, a SEG employer will support the needs of the
credit union, and that employees will automatically
join and use its services.”
“You have to get involved at every level!”
Nancy Hutchinson
SVP Marketing/Business Development
Minnesota Power Employees Credit Union
32. Results
After 12 years of this process, MPECU has enjoyed:
Membership has grown by 41%
Assets size has more than doubled
34. Why is On Boarding Important?
According to Frederick Reichheld, author of
“The Loyalty Effect”
A 5% increase in retention can lead to a 100% increase
in profitability.
In the banking industry, banks spend, on average, $500 to
acquire a new customer and less than $52 to retain.
Which would you rather see the bank invest?
35. “Quality in a service or product
is not what you put into it. It is
what the client or customer gets
out of it.”
- Peter Drucker
36. Why is On Boarding Important?
Most cross-sell opportunities come in the first few months after
checking accounts are opened.
In fact 73% of all cross sales occur in the first three months of a
banking relationship.
Gallup Management Journal, November 2005
37. “You’ll never have a product or
price advantage again. They
can be easily duplicated, but a
strong customer service culture
can’t be copied.”
- Jerry Fritz
Sooooo … we can’t do this…
39. Customer Lifecycle
Target – Prospective customer stage, targeting
with specific products/services
Acquire – New customers open an account and
are introduced to your financial institution
Service – Continuous On Boarding and day-to-day
servicing (transaction and value-added)
Develop – Present offers to expand and grow
relationship
40. What’s At Stake?
“Only 26% of the average bank's
customers will consider it for their next
purchase, and few will look to a bank for
their investment needs. To improve
their cross-sell odds, banks must target
online banking and bill pay customers.”
Forrester Research 2006
41. On Boarding is Critical
90 Day Window
Trust the Process
Manage Expectations
Communicate
50. Communication Methods
Email
Phone Call
Letter
Direct
Considerations:
Determine who will send each communication
(President, Branch Manager, CSR, etc.)
Retail or Business Product
51. Success Tips
Touch customers early and often – include Brand
Service quality at all touch points – direct mail,
online, frontline telephone and branch team.
Demonstrate understanding – customer relationship,
customer value, and financial expert.
Include actionable steps
Segment Audience – Targeted Communications
Provide Consistent Training
Ensure Accountability
Have a special plan to onboard SEG Ambassadors
52. Keep the Momentum
Don’t stop communications after 90 days!
• Touch customers throughout the life of their relationship
• Keep calling/mailing limited to no more than once
per quarter
• Target customers according to their current relationship
• Homeownership status
• Age
• Income
• Product Usage
• Other demographics/Lifestyle characteristics
• Include actionable offers in an effort to retain, reward and
deepen relationships.

Am I taking care of their business and personal needs?
Am I suggesting better or more innovative ways to meet their
present and future needs?
If concern areas are outside my scope of responsibility, am I
alerting the appropriate people so problems can be addressed
and corrected?
Am I achieving a value proposition?
Am I/we employing all of the Credit Union’s resources for the
benefit of the member?

“Given the opportunity in the market, we believed a
number of credit unions could benefit from offering
business services but may not be able to make the
necessary investment to build capabilities on their
own. Capital limits also played a role, as well as the
ability to participate and diversify a commercial loan
portfolio among a group of credit unions.”
