44) #ExponentialInsights: The Role of Images in Financial Brand Storytelling w/ Andy Janning
The first two questions we ask a prospective customer are: Do you feel like you can trust this institution? How does what you're looking at on the website make you feel? Financial brands that use stock photography almost inevitably raise a red flag. Yet about 9 in 10 financial brand websites show at least one stock photo. In this episode of Banking on Digital Growth, I talk with Andy Janning (https://www.linkedin.com/in/andyjanning/), president and CEO at NO NET Solutions (http://andyjanning.com/), about the role of images in financial brand storytelling.

43) #InsideDigitalGrowth: Bridge the Gap Between Marketing and Sales

42) #ByTheBook: Purpose Can Power Your Financial Brand Internally
Purpose can power your financial brand. But your purpose is fragile if it's not backed up by process and by proof.

41) #DigitalGrowthJourneys: Digital Growth Means the Courage to Act on New Information w/ Mia Perez
One thing I’ve learned over the years is that people want two things in their personal financial journey: They want help and hope. And more often than not, hope has to come before help. But if your digital marketing consists of only saying you can offer a loan at X%. What hope are you offering? That’s something my guest today, Mia Perez (https://www.linkedin.com/in/miavperez/), Chief Administrative Officer at Louisiana Federal Credit Union (https://www.louisianafcu.org/), learned on her digital growth journey. And unlike others, she had the courage to act on the information. On today’s show, Mia goes over: Why you should have the courage to change what you know isn’t working The importance of taking risks to try new things Why we should admit when we don’t know everything about something newYou can find this interview, and many more, by subscribing to Banking on Digital Growth on Apple Podcasts, (https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/banking-on-digital-growth/id1498837117) on Spotify, or here (https://www.digitalgrowth.com/podcast).

40) #InsideDigitalGrowth: How Effective Are Focus Groups in Digital Marketing Strategy?
One in three Americans loses sleep over financial problems, but they're too embarrassed to talk about it. Yet when financial brands want to know what their customers think, what do they do? Ask them to talk about it. This approach cannot work. In this episode of Banking on Digital Growth, I address three pitfalls of digital focus groups and then provide a clear path to getting insights that create value for your financial brand and the people you serve. I talked about: Why people make the decisions they do when buying financial products How people make those decisions Why focus groups hone in on the wrong things How to uncover the greatest insights for your financial brand You can find this interview, and many more, by subscribing to Banking on Digital Growth on Apple Podcasts (https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/banking-on-digital-growth/id1498837117), on Spotify (https://open.spotify.com/show/6ml7uCQ7HoVvWTYUNpdUfS), or here (https://www.digitalgrowth.com/podcast).

39) #ByTheBook: This One Word Determines Where People Buy Financial Products
Can I trust you? That's the question your customers and prospective customers are asking. And you can't answer their question with a broadcast marketing strategy focused on commoditized products. Instead, you have to use the fundamentals of neuroscience and gain access to your customer's reptilian brain. I share my thoughts on how to do that in this episode of Banking on Digital Growth. I talked about: The three levels of connection in all human relationships The two ways you build trust How to use neuroscience to increase customer loyalty to your financial brand You can find this interview, and many more, by subscribing to Banking on Digital Growth on Apple Podcasts (https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/banking-on-digital-growth/id1498837117), on Spotify (https://open.spotify.com/show/6ml7uCQ7HoVvWTYUNpdUfS), or here (https://www.digitalgrowth.com/podcast).

37) #InsideDigitalGrowth: Battle With the Big Banks: Content Marketing Gives You a Competitive Advantage
How can content marketing help community banks and credit unions compete with the big banks? Lauren asked that question, and I answered it on this episode of the Banking on Digital podcast. There is no better way to get close with your prospective account holders in a digital world than through content, and there's no better way to retain account holders in a digital world than through content and community institutions.

36) #ByTheBook: Your Purpose Is More Important Than Your Vision
Most financial brands know they need a vision statement. But vision isn’t the same thing as purpose. And if you don’t learn the difference, it’ll cost you.
