Banks and credit unions balance technology and in-person service By Michael Daigle For XCEL Federal Credit Union, the 21st century form of banking was thrust upon them by the attack on the World Trade Center, where its headquarters was located. “As tragic as that day was, on Sept. 2 our members still needed access to their accounts,” said XCEL director of marketing Thomas Quigley. “So our members taught themselves about remote access.” The result: Before Sept. 11, 14 percent of XCEL transactions were done remotely. Today, the figure is about 96 percent, Quigley said. XCEL’s tagline is “United Service and Technology.” While the credit union has claimed that tag, it describes the trend in the banking and credit union industry. New technologies, younger customers and the need to keep up with social and life changes have created the need for financial institutions to change their delivery models, including the creation of smart phone apps that give a consumer direct access to services, industry insiders said. At the same time, maintaining physical branches remains an important part of their business model, they add. Millennials are “more into speed, security (and) convenience and not so much into building personal relationships,” Quigley said. “They bank at 1 a.m. or when they get up in the morning.” But that does not always last, said Dittrich of Provident Bank, which is why local bank branches are still important service centers. As the move to mobile banking accelerates, banks and credit unions are balancing face-to-face experiences with online service. “A face-to-face visit allows our bankers to provide the personal service needed when a customer wants advice or a recommendation on the best product or service to meet their needs,” said Ronald Schwarz, senior executive vice president and chief revenue officer for “They open an account at Lakeland Bank. 18 but at 28 they need different things -- that first car, a first house,” he said. “Different life Michael Powers, vice president of lending, marketing and business development for decisions and we need to be there to help.” Garden Savings Federal Credit Union, said, “Account openings and loans in particular are Schwarz of Lakeland said a fundamental change is that branch bankers offer services still services that some people prefer to handle in person.” Often, those customers have that are “more consultative than transactional.” specific questions about the transactions, he added. (Continued on page 5) But the switch to technology is on. Schwarz said Lakeland sees an annual shift to electronic banking of 10 to 15 percent. Greg Dittrich, regional manager for Provident Bank, said roughly 50 percent of the bank’s transactions are electronic and Powers of Garden Savings said, “a large majority of our total transactions types are handed electronically, including deposits.” Businesses learn how to make more sales By Christopher Reardon Dietrich added, “It’s about convenience and choices.” A group of business owners and professionals recently learned how to double their sales with no additional effort and increase their bottom line by 10 percent. All over breakfast. The range of services offered by these institutions covers personal and business accounts, free checking, mortgages, business services account such as cash flow management and high level services such as wealth management. The group was attending the Good Morning, Morris networking breakfast of the Morris County Chamber of Commerce, which featured Carl Gould as the guest speaker. Gould is president of 7 Stage Advisors, a business growth advisory firm. The personal services that are transactional – deposits or loan payments, for example – “are more easily handled online for those individuals who are comfortable with the technology,” Powers said. “In sales, it’s the last little bit of energy that gets the sale,” said. “You don’t get any points for just showing up. This is attractive to younger customers, the experts said. “In most cases in business if you come in second, that’s fine. But the one place in business you cannot come in second is in sales. In sales, there’s first place and no place.” Gould told the audience if they get most of their business from referrals, they are friends selling to friends. To reach their full sales potential they must become strangers selling to strangers. “The challenge of friends selling to friends is it will never stop,” he said. “You will always have to keep coming back. You have to become strangers selling to strangers or you’ll never get out of the loop.” (Continued on page 3) M O R R I S C O U N T Y C Trust Yourself. But Talk to Pros.

M O R R I S C O U N Businesses learn how to make more sales To do this, businesses must “think obnoxious,” Gould said. They must make an obnoxious offer – price their products or services in away no one else does and make a promise no one else makes. “Make an offer in your niche market no one else has the guts to make,” Gould said. He encouraged the audience to identify the number one problem their customers face and promise they won’t have to deal with it anymore. “You can’t just make the standard offer,” he said. “It has to be obnoxious.” Gould advised them to double their price, then double it again and to promise and deliver extra value. “If you create enough value for the customer, price sensitivity goes away,” he said. Gould then provided the nine steps for doubling sales and increasing the bottom line by 10 percent: (1) Planning; (2) Marketing; (3) Lead Generation; (4) Conversation/Offers; (5) Qualifying; (6) Transition; (7) Paperwork; (8) Approval; and (9) Closing.

Spend more time on your business, less on your banking. “Do each of the steps a little bit better and you will double your sales,” he said. By thinking obnoxiously and improving each step of the selling process by 10 percent, businesses will reach their full potential, Gould said. “You’re doing so much right. You’re just missing the last little bit,” he said. Gould, who recently released a book called Biz Development Done Right, which he co-authored with Caryn Kopp of Kopp Consulting, also partners with the chamber to teach a 12-session business acceleration program called HyperGrowth. The 2016 HyperGrowth program will begin June 2. Gould and the chamber are offering three free previews of the program, March 29, April 7 and May 10, from 2:30 to 4:30 p.m. in Gould’s office in Butler.

An older branch could have been 3,500 square feet while new ones that include ATMs can be 1,500 square feet, he said. It is all about how to balance customer needs and the delivery of services. The need to close or shift a branch depends on market factors, as well, the experts said. In 2015 in New Jersey, 50 bank branches were closed and 65 were opened, according to the state Department of Banking and Insurance. Quigley of XCEL said site selection can be a matter of how many members live within two miles, highway location, the mix of uses in the neighborhood and the age of the population. Powers said Garden State branches have been in place for years and are “designed to be conducive to the majority of our 25,000plus members in the communities and organizations we serve.” Co li v e s Dittrich of Provident said a change affecting branches and branch locations is the size of new branches or relocated B E R O F C O M M E R C E Powers said a Maplewood branch near Seton Hall University is important as the college is now a member of the credit union. Quigley said all parts of the banking business are consolidating. “It’s a combination of merger and members taking advantage of remote services,” he said. Cell phones are more powerful than the computers on the Apollo space ship, he said, and “people are harried, running around with their kids. They need to make things easier.” Attending the February networking event sponsored by the Young Professionals Committee of the Morris County Chamber of Commerce were (left to right) Vincent Cirianni of The Preferred Client Group; Joanna M. Fellon of Friedman LLP, an event sponsor; Christine Cox West of International Planning Alliance LLC; Mairead Togneri of Garden Savings Federal Credit Union, an event sponsor; and David Bruno of The Bianchi Law Group. Powers added, “The challenge for the financial industry on the whole becomes how to manage and best utilize the right resources so that the proper combination of technology and live employees satisfies, as best as possible, everyone from baby boomers to millennials.” Photo: Distinctive Media Colon cancer is detectable, preventable and curable. ies cop os lon sav e M (Continued from page 1) For individuals, that means detailing mortgages and lines of credit and for businesses, cash flow and capital spending needs, he said. “The goal is to optimize the various delivery channels that our customer want to use,” Schwarz said.

Economic development means jobs The Morris County Chamber of Commerce is fortunate to have a strong partnership with the Morris County Board of Freeholders and many leading private sector companies in our region to promote economic development. The Morris County Economic Development Corporation (MCEDC), a division of the chamber, serves as the economic development arm of the county and works to retain the jobs we have and attract new investment and jobs to our area. Economic development is a competitive game, with municipalities, counties and states all competing against each other for capital investment. As we know, New Jersey does not score well on many business climate studies comparing costs from state to state. We will never be a low-cost state but we have so many positive attributes that are important for investors and employers. First is our talented work force. Companies know they can find the people they need here to operate their businesses. The New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania region represents the crossroads of business on the East Coast and our proximity to Wall Street is a plus for many larger multinational companies. Our ports and airports provide opportunities for all businesses to grow around the world. The Christie administration also has worked hard to reduce business taxes and reach out to the business community. Here in Morris County we have some of the best K-12 schools, open space and responsible county and municipal governments looking to support business growth. So as one business leader said in a recent meeting I attended, “Let’s stop apologizing for ourselves and get more aggressive about promoting all the good things we can offer investors.” We recently met with the Freeholder Budget Committee to discuss what some of our options might be in this regard. Some of our biggest developers have told us we should be spending more time promoting our region at major industry trade shows, such as BIO-NJ, and other industry gatherings. We know that over time the costs of doing business in New York City will drive some companies to look westward. Is there a way for us to promote Morris County as a hub for technology companies as well as pharmaceuticals, for instance? An important factor for success is our relationships with local officials. In many cases they provide the necessary permits for companies to renovate buildings and secure approvals. We recently worked with a billion dollar company moving to Parsippany that had a very tight move-in schedule and the mayor and his team did a great job in turning around the necessary permits. We also know that our competitor communities around the country spend money on digital marketing programs and professional videos. We’re looking at these and other options to improve our online profile to give people globally a better sense of the advantages they can enjoy by investing in Morris County. On Friday, March 4, we will host our Annual MCEDC Awards Luncheon with Bob Ackerman, vice president and US country head real estate and facility services at Novartis, as our keynote luncheon speaker. Bob played a leadership role in the expansion of the company’s East Hanover site over the last decade, anchoring more than 5,000 jobs in Morris County. A pre-luncheon panel comprising leading developers and major property-owners in Morris County will begin at 10:30 a.m. and will focus on several significant economic development projects currently underway in Morris County. Please attend and learn about many significant investments being made in Morris County. Paul Boudreau President Morris County Chamber of Commerce A M B E R O F C O M M E R C E Inside Edge...

Though concerned by the continuing downward shift of the stock market, wealth managers and financial advisors in Morris County say their clients are insulated because their short- and longterm plans are designed to withstand sharp drops in the market. “Don’t get caught up in emotion,” said Jim McCarthy of Directional Wealth Management in Rockaway. “The thing I’m telling my clients is to have a plan, a roadmap, and part of that roadmap is how we deal with bumps in the road,” he added. “Those bumps are going to come but because we’ve built that into the plan, we’ve accounted for that. “The types of assets they own minimize the impact. I keep reminding clients we have a plan. Let’s stick with the plan.” In business 13 years as a certified financial planner and a New Jersey Monthly Five Star Wealth Manager two years in a row, McCarthy underlines the need to understand an investor’s horizon. Briccetti In addition, for the third consecutive year, Berkeley has been recognized by U.S. News & World Report among the top 100 Best Colleges for Online Bachelor’s Degree Programs. ..........................................................

Susan Miano was promoted to partner in the Forensic Accounting, Litigation Support and Valuation Services Group. She is a graduate of St. Francis College with a bachelor’s degree in accounting and is a CPA. Scott Stavin was promoted to partner in the Tax Services department. He is a graduate of Binghamton University with a bachelor’s degree in accounting and Fairleigh Dickinson University with a master’s degree in taxation and a graduate certificate in corporate taxation. Geoffrey Wilson was promoted to partner in the Tax Services department. He is a graduate of the University of Pittsburgh with a bachelor’s degree in accounting and Baruch College with a master’s degree in taxation. “If you’re talking about a long-term horizon of 10-plus years (the current market downturn) shouldn’t be a major concern,” he said. “A shorter-term horizon presents some concern. “It also depends on where you are in the life-cycle. If you’re getting ready to retire, this is pretty scary. If you’re 30 or 40 years old, contributing to a 401(k) or SEP account, this is a great time. You’re getting to invest money at discounted rates.” Kim Luthy of Allied Wealth Partners in Parsippany has been making calls to hundreds of clients to provide reassurances but she is finding most of them are not worried. “I am proactively reaching out and the response I get most is, ‘Thanks for the call. It’s been on my mind but I know we’re good,’” she said. “The crux of what I do is not only building wealth but helping them protect it. “This is not something out of the ordinary,” she added. “Every six-seven 7 “Every six-seven years we see a pull back, a correction…if our goals remain what they were when we first sat down, we will only have to make minor changes.” years we see a pull back, a correction. Historically, this has happened before and if our goals remain what they were when we first sat down, we will only have to make minor changes.” Luthy said her clients understand they need to look at the bigger picture. “I just had a client in here today to go over their portfolio and compared to the markets, our portfolio is not down as much because we immunize them from the peaks and valleys in the market,” she said. David Greenberg of Integrated Planning Concepts in Livingston shares Luthy’s broader view of the market. “To me, the story has never changed,” he said. “It’s always the same, always has been. This has happened many times in the past and will in the future. It’s part of the normal flow of the market. “So if you’re the type of person investing money in the market and there is risk of any kind, ideally it needs to be understood that the investment is for the longer-term purposes. When you have a longer-term view of the money, the shortterm volatility is not as much a concern. “The message I give to clients is, ‘Be balanced and don’t have all your eggs in one basket,” he added. “The kind of planning I do has clients place their assets in guaranteed securities and insurancebased programs so they are insulated from market risk.” As a result, Greenberg said he is not getting a lot of calls because clients do not have to deal with volatility or because they expect volatility for the portion of their portfolio earmarked for the market. “They’re not scared or nervous,” he said. “They understand ups and downs are part of the overall plan.” M O M Ro r R rI i sS O nUt yN “T B Yu s iCn H B nE n Recti O F C Co u e sAs MC o o nC ” O M E o Rr yC D iM r ect E Accounting and Consulting Friedman LLP 100 Eagle Rock Ave., East Hanover, NJ 07936 Phone: Sari Gluckman, 973-929-3500 Fax: 973-929-3501 www.friedmanllp.com Friedman LLP has been serving the accounting, tax and business consulting needs of public and private companies for over 90 years.
