Here are some key highlights from this episode:

  • The fifth ‘P’ of marketing: Outside of product, promotion, placement and price, Jonas explains how he learned about a fifth ‘P’ in the core principles of marketing—personalization. Personalization and understanding the borrowers needs is crucial for financial institutions to adopt in order to stand out in a competitive market.
  • A forward-looking underwriting approach: Jonas shares that Laurel Road’s innovative approach to underwriting considers what their borrower’s financial stability will be based on their career path and professional specialization.
  • “Know me, hear me, help me”: Customers expect personalized interactions and service that acknowledges their individuality and specific needs, not generic approaches. This personalized approach is crucial for building lasting relationships and loyalty in banking.
