Have you got what it takes to become a Business Banking Rockstar?

Dominating the business banking game is not easy…but it is not impossible either! You need some essential biz banking skills and a proven plan of attack and everything else will start falling into place! Everyone starts at the bottom of the ranking reports. The bankers who figure out the path to the top are able to claw their way up and stay at the top of the ranking reports! How do they get it done?

Business Banking Rockstars are committed to mastering the business banking game! They do the required heavy lifting like taking accounting & financial analysis classes, read books, beg for training, hunt down mentors, read the credit policy manual, develop a good relationship with their credit manager, and a lot more.  As a result, they are able to land an awesome mentor who teaches how to get to the top faster, they get into a good training program because they exhibited initiative & tenacity, and, the most important ingredient, they start believing that they can become a Business Banking Rockstar!  You can’t become what you don’t believe is possible!

Business Banking Rockstars master every aspect of the business lending cycle. They easily fill their pipeline because they know how to leverage digital marketing to research and connect with their prospects at lightening speed. They master product knowledge and turn product features into benefits.  They then use “benefits”  to quickly convince their prospects that they have the solutions their prospects need!  They are able to quickly vet their prospects and only work on deals that are likely to get to the finish line!  They are able to navigate any type of financial statement and tease out the information they need to get their deals approved.  They learn financial analysis which helps them quickly get the credit team to support their deals right out of the gate!  They are able to write an effective credit memo that contains all the information needed for the credit team to approve their deals!  They are able to take a disciplined approach to managing their deal flow and still find time to remain laser focused on their marketing activity. Naturally, Business Banking Rockstars earn the respect of their leadership and credit team when they do all these things!  Respect then translates into more compensation, more career opportunities, financial freedom, work-life balance, and whatever else the Business Banking Rockstar believes is possible!
