Say goodbye to managers and board members who bring your CU down.

If you’ve read any of my articles or heard me present, you know I’m a passionate credit union advocate.

Expressions such as “thinning the herd” sound harsh, except when we talk about non-performing members. We’re comfortable when it comes to members. Many are willing (anxious even) to close accounts that are not profitable, become dormant or become a net expense to the organization. We try to cross-sell, activate and then – at the end of the day – if they don’t engage, we either fee or escheat them out.
