Online Appointment Scheduling

As COVID infection rates continued to climb, it became clear that there would be no immediate return to normal. Banking-by-appointment, once a nice-to-have option, is now a critical tool to maintain efficient, safe operations and grow business in the foreseeable future.

COVID-19 has changed how every organization interacts with its clientele. Tasked with everything from new cleaning and sanitizing regimens to enforcing social distancing guidelines, banking leaders struggle to balance customer or member satisfaction and safe, efficient operations.

While many states are reopening or adjusting their restrictions, banks and credit unions must deliver nimble responses to demands from customers and employees for safety. As COVID becomes a long-term reality, striking the right balance between safety and efficient operations is key.

Retailers are beginning the reopening process, but the landscape has changed dramatically in a few months. Consumers are uncertain about how they want to interact with brands, and a patchwork of guidelines across states impacts how and when national retailers can open their doors regionally.

Retailers across the country are actively planning how to safely reopen their doors or welcome customers as COVID social distancing orders are rolled back across the country. While experts don't know exactly how customers will feel about shopping in stores, they agree that retail will be different.

Amid the Coronavirus quarantine, consumer habits are quickly shifting, and retailers are looking at ways to connect with consumers in the short- and long-term. Here’s how to personalize online and offline interactions and form long lasting loyalty, even at a distance.

Small businesses in need of urgent financial assistance from COVID-19 disruptions are looking to banks for help. The small business loan program, part of the CARES Act, was launched last week, but a confusing set of guidelines from the federal government has left banks scrambling.
