 Most banks believe they are committed to servicing Small Business customers. They develop products and
services for this segment; they invest considerable amounts of time and money trying to improve their Small
Business Bankers’ business development (i.e., sales) skills; and some may even create a line of business within the
bank entitled “Business Banking” or “Small Business Banking.” But most of these efforts fail to produce the
desired growth objectives because banks don’t really understand the needs of the smallbusiness customer.
 If banks are serious about implementing successful Small Business Banking programs that produce long-term
growth opportunities – for both the bank and small business owners – they will need to become more focused on
aligning their execution strategies to small business customers’ real needs instead of just peddling loans. Because
if they don’t, the alternative lenders, payroll providers, independent sales organizations, credit unions, non-
banks, and other savvy businesses are rapidly stepping into the landscape – that has historically been the domain
of the banks – to provide small businesses with a full range of financial services.
 Therefore, to assist banks in this endeavor, I am providing the first element of a Small Business Banking Segment
Analysis that I developed that provides much of the needed information to develop an effective Small Business
Execution Strategy that produces real results!

2 What are our Competitors
Vulnerabilities?
Source: Focus Group Discussions with
Small Businesses
o All but one of the business owners in the discussions use multiple banks and brokerages for investments.
o They consider the larger banks to be too big and impersonal
o Mass market appealis undesirable to some larger and/or more sophisticated business customers.
o Do not consider branch bankers or call center staff to be customer-service focused.
o Branch people are not knowledgeable about business banking products and services and are unable to answer questions about credit options, denial of credit, etc.
o Focus group respondents expressed little – if any – loyalty towards their banks. In fact, all business owners are “moveable” for better service or a “relationship.”
o Only half of business owners claimed to have a “banker,” but none described the relationship as strong or close. Those who did not have a banker would like to have such service, but have come to expect little or
nothing from their bank in terms of a relationship.
o Customers do not feela bank is appropriate for either payrollservices or small business insurance – mostly because of perceived “overstepping”their areas of expertise.
o All business owners would appreciate a relationship with their bank/banker in which services beneficialfor their businesses are suggested.
o One specific product of dissatisfaction is credit card processing for those who take credit card purchases. Only two use their primary bank for credit card processing, but none are happy with the service regardless of the
provider.
Where are the Profit Pools within
each segment?

o Proximity (location)
o Social Media

o Web Ads on appropriate business websites
o New account profile (that identifies a customer may also have a small business)
o Branch Bankers networking at Small Business Functions, Training, Community Activities, etc.
Service and Delivery

Small Business Banking Segment Analysis - 06.10.16

  • 1. Small BusinessBankingSegment Analysis A Banker’s Guide to Understanding How to Effectively Serve Small Businesses Calvin W. Turner Jr. Founder / CEO, Strategic Banking Insights June 10, 2016
  • 2. Small Business Banking Segment Analysis Strategic BankingInsights Page2 of 12  Most banks believe they are committed to servicing Small Business customers. They develop products and services for this segment; they invest considerable amounts of time and money trying to improve their Small Business Bankers’ business development (i.e., sales) skills; and some may even create a line of business within the bank entitled “Business Banking” or “Small Business Banking.” But most of these efforts fail to produce the desired growth objectives because banks don’t really understand the needs of the smallbusiness customer.  If banks are serious about implementing successful Small Business Banking programs that produce long-term growth opportunities – for both the bank and small business owners – they will need to become more focused on aligning their execution strategies to small business customers’ real needs instead of just peddling loans. Because if they don’t, the alternative lenders, payroll providers, independent sales organizations, credit unions, non- banks, and other savvy businesses are rapidly stepping into the landscape – that has historically been the domain of the banks – to provide small businesses with a full range of financial services.  Therefore, to assist banks in this endeavor, I am providing the first element of a Small Business Banking Segment Analysis that I developed that provides much of the needed information to develop an effective Small Business Execution Strategy that produces real results!

Source: Focus Group Discussions with Small Businesses o All but one of the business owners in the discussions use multiple banks and brokerages for investments. o They consider the larger banks to be too big and impersonal o Mass market appealis undesirable to some larger and/or more sophisticated business customers. o Do not consider branch bankers or call center staff to be customer-service focused. o Branch people are not knowledgeable about business banking products and services and are unable to answer questions about credit options, denial of credit, etc. o Focus group respondents expressed little – if any – loyalty towards their banks. In fact, all business owners are “moveable” for better service or a “relationship.” o Only half of business owners claimed to have a “banker,” but none described the relationship as strong or close. Those who did not have a banker would like to have such service, but have come to expect little or nothing from their bank in terms of a relationship. o Customers do not feela bank is appropriate for either payrollservices or small business insurance – mostly because of perceived “overstepping”their areas of expertise. o All business owners would appreciate a relationship with their bank/banker in which services beneficialfor their businesses are suggested. o One specific product of dissatisfaction is credit card processing for those who take credit card purchases. Only two use their primary bank for credit card processing, but none are happy with the service regardless of the provider. Where are the Profit Pools within each segment? Source: BOLB Strategy document o Deposits – Projected AnnualEarnings on Balances per customer $443 (based on $22,126 ACB of non-analysis customers at 2.00% spread). o Average annualNet Merchant Services income per customer $761 o Average AnnualBusiness Check Card Income per customer $285 o Average AnnualBusiness Credit Card Income per customer $637
