CUNA Marketing & Business Development Council Dispels Myths about Marketing
MADISON, WI (June 17, 2013) A new credit union marketer is emerging — one who understands how data can drive decisions, one who measures, shows and shares results for marketing initiatives. This marketer knows how to collaborate with other credit unions, while maintaining a unique brand identity; the marketer builds internal bridges, manages risk, and is sought after as a potential CEO. For this 21st century marketer to flourish, many myths that affect the profession must be put to rest.
A new white paper, from the CUNA Marketing & Business Development Council, “Marketing is Easy and Other Myths: Strategies to Demystify Ten Misunderstandings That Plague Credit Union Marketing Professionals,” dispels ten of the most common misunderstandings that concern the ever-changing role of credit union marketing by asking:
- How do marketers show overall value to the credit union?
- In what ways can credit unions work together to gain market share?
- How can marketers position their messages to make better connections with consumers?
- What skills are important to create better business development and marketing programs?
- How can marketers work better with CFOs?
CUNA Council members are eligible to receive complimentary copies of this, and over 300 other white papers; non-Council members may purchase white papers for $50 per copy.
The paper is available online in the white paper section of www.cunacouncils.org.
Press may contact Natalie Sherry at nsherry@cuna.coop for a copy of the white paper.
