Ready to ‘Meet Your Banker’? Video Series Serves as Virtual Handshake

It’s entirely common these days to manage your personal money through a website or in a mobile app without ever interacting with a human being.

But when it comes to business banking, a strong relationship between you as the owner and your banker is crucial to your business’ success. When you experience a challenge as a local owner, your banker should offer a unique perspective based on the work they’ve done with hundreds or even thousands of businesses throughout their careers.

Getting to know your bankers and lending experts is the goal of our new “Meet Your Banker” series, videos that illustrate how your Plumas Bank financial professionals can help your business thrive.

Video Series Connects Local Owners with Bankers

“When our business clients thrive, the local economy thrives — and that’s the fundamental purpose of a community bank,” said Stacy Kendall, Plumas Bank’s Vice President of Marketing and Community Impact. “This video series highlights the banking professionals who live and work in our region. It reveals the value of the relationship between local business owners and the bankers who are dedicated to their success.”

Bankers and lenders assist you as a business owner with revenue and expense management and seasonal cycles. They support the purchase of equipment, supplies, inventory and real estate. They introduce banking and lending products, creating efficiencies within your business. They position your business to grow and expand — not to mention the continuous education they provide on cybersecurity, fraud prevention and financial resilience.

In short, your local bankers and commercial lenders are the experts who will help you navigate the everyday challenges of establishing, maintaining, and growing your business.
