\"\"<\/a>A few weeks ago, I blogged about Mobile Banking<\/a> launching at Vancity. At the time we had just introduced it, as did many other BC credit unions. In fact, 80% of credit union members in BC now have access to this new feature. I also mentioned that all BC credit unions came together to advertise mobile banking province wide.<\/p>\n

Credit unions in BC have been working co-operatively for quite a while now (Gene, do you know how long the Province-Wide Advertising Committee has been around?<\/span>) to advertise our shared differentiators. You can see a bunch of recent BC credit union ads on YouTube<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Each addresses a different perception in the marketplace that we’re collectively trying to address in the minds of consumers. We know we have the emotional, or heart, attributes like giving back to the community, being local, etc… What we need to move the needle on is the intellectual, or head, attributes. These commercials deal with issues like accessibility (Ding Free ATMs<\/span>), full service options (That Guy<\/span>, one of the less successful ads in my opinion). And now with the mobile banking ads, we’re dealing with innovation.<\/p>\n

I’ve embedded the two mobile banking ads below, so take a look, and let me know what you think. I don’t sit on this committee so be honest. Personally, I like these commercials, and I also like many of the recent commercials credit unions in BC have run (That Guy<\/span> excepted).<\/p>\n

Enjoy!<\/p>\n\n\n
