BIRMINGHAM, Ala. & HOUSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--In honor of National Small Business Week, Cadence Bank announces two new websites dedicated to helping small businesses thrive, while celebrating the many vital contributions of America’s small business owners.
Where Small Businesses Thrive is a site where small businesses can interact with Cadence Bank and each other, and find valuable business advice, motivational insights, banker bios, useful products and services, and other resources to help run and grow their businesses. Visitors to the site are encouraged to “Tell Us Your Story” and ask questions to which a Cadence Small Business banker will respond. Questions and answers, with approval, are posted to the site so others also may benefit from the tips provided.
“We have created this site as a community for small business owners and executives,” explained Rick Claypoole, director of retail marketing and product development. “Many small business owners face similar challenges and share many of the same questions. We have capitalized on the wealth of knowledge among our Small Business Banking team, bringing together numerous resources in a single location to help small businesses meet these challenges head on.”
Gary Wright, small business banking executive at Cadence, said: “When small business owners are ready to meet with a banker, they can explore our banking team’s experience and philosophy - even their hobbies and interests - to help build the type of sound relationship that is so essential to business success.”
Simultaneously, Cadence launched another new website - Cadence Bank Small Business Portal - offering its clients access to best-in-class small business services with preferred pricing. Services include marketing assistance, staffing support and shipping discounts to support business growth.
“For small businesses with limited staff and resources, identifying an experienced vendor that can offer strategic yet affordable solutions is crucial,” Claypoole noted. “We have streamlined that process with a one-stop shop for vetted nationally recognized providers that can directly impact a company’s bottom-line.”
Debbie Innes, retail banking and treasury management executive, added: “We believe relationships are everything. We are constantly asking ourselves, ‘How can we bring long-term value to our clients?’ These newly launched solutions are intended to help small businesses build continued and sustainable growth. While we celebrate their successes each and every day, National Small Business Week gives us the perfect opportunity to do so in a significant way.”
