August 16, 2022

Traditional banks and credit unions have a lot to consider when it comes to their customer engagement strategies today: From managing increased expectations of customers for digital experiences and innovation, to the influx of competitors, like neobanks, who have entered the space with niche products designed for the digital-forward nature of consumers.

And the combination of these things is leading to a greater challenge at banks and credit unions: disengagement and dormant customers. Below is a snippet from the whitepaper that depicts the impact that disengaged customers can have on both cost and profitability.

Traditional financial services organizations have been operating on the notion that customer acquisition supersedes existing customer engagement. But what happens when those newly acquired customers disengage?
