  • What are your advantages / disadvantages?
  • What products should you target?

New Account Holder “Onboarding”

  • 30% of new account holders leave within the first year.
  • During the first 90 – 180 days, new account holders are more likely to purchase additional products or services.

Indirect Lending Cross-Sell

  • A J.D. Powers & Associates study found that 37% of consumers with luxury purchases and 33% of consumers with non-luxury purchases said they intend to work with the dealer to choose the financing options.
  • The challenge is not only to bring in the loans – the challenge is how to turn these people into more than just single account holders.
  • One Solution: Inform these account holders about your institution – they wanted the vehicle, not the relationship. Sell the relationship and your benefits and advantages over the competition. Identify and promote SPECIFIC products and services that will appeal to each individual.

Single-Service Account Holder

  • How many account holders do you have that have only a single account as their rainy-day fund or so they can cash their paychecks? Or have a single loan or credit card?
