Overcoming the Cross-Sell Crisis

February 15, 2006
Many financial institutions search in vain for the customer who will buy multiple types of products from a single provider. It’s no wonder -they’re a potentially lucrative bunch. Winning over one-stop shopping prospects, however, will require changes to products and pricing that many institutions struggle to deliver because of organizational and political hurdles. Plus, implementing proven tactical measures for cross-sell strategies is where many companies miss the mark. At this web seminar, you will find out: who these one-stop shoppers are and how financial institutions can effectively reach them, the product and pricing changes needed to successfully cross-sell, and what separates the good from the great in developing cross-sell programs for call centers, teller lines and new accounts desks.
