“...we're talking about personalization as it relates to where the customer is in the lifecycle...”

Today, personalization goes way beyond just getting the account holder’s name right. It’s more about the channels a person uses and where he or she is in the lifecycle.

 

“...it’s relevant and the interchange fee that the Financial Institution gets drives value...”

Truly knowing your account holders is no longer just about demographics, it’s about traits. For example, I prefer the mobile channel; I’m a small business user; I’m responding to a marketing campaign. Traits empower FIs to engage customers with extremely relevant outreaches.

 

“..are you determining whether or not they abandoned the process because it's too hard?”

The definition of onboarding has to change. Hear Marous’ top four elements of how FIs need to be defining onboarding today.

 

“...have marketing involved at every touch, and assert your tone and brand, that's how you differentiate...”

The principles of digital onboarding are personalization, increasing the perceived value, decreasing the friction, and asserting your unique tone, your unique brand.

 

”...to be successful, you’ve got to mine that data, store that data, and make it actionable."

There is so much to learn about users and their behavior in the account opening process. You need a platform on which to store and mine that data to make it actionable.
