Small Businesses Unhappy with Bank Service

While many small business owners are optimistic about 2011, a lot are dissatisfied with the service they receive from their business banks. According to this article, they are unhappy with the overall banking experience for a second consecutive year.

The most important thing that small business owners look for in a bank is an open line of communication. When an owner and a bank account manager understand each other (goals, needs, etc.), the business runs smoothly. There aren’t any surprises, which allows for optimal productivity. Since this type of service has seemingly waned, more and more small business owners are switching to different banks.

This idea of stability and trust in a bank is essential when establishing one’s small business. Often times, as described in the article, small business owners turn to smaller, regional banks to find this type of commitment and dedication.
