New Strategies for On-boarding Your New Members
First impressions last forever–and drive growth!
SETTING UP THE STAGE
It’s Time to Look at Things Differently
• The types of members currently recruited.• Current member acquisition costs.• Attrition rates and the way new members are on-
boarded.• The way member communications are used to
cross sell and create loyalty.• Use of multichannel collaborative efforts.
The Impact
A 5% increase in money-losing members will
reduce Net Income by 37%.

The Alternative
Growing profitable member segments by just 5% will cause Net Income to
spike by nearly 40%.

Cost to Acquire
Acquisition costs per member typically exceed $350
and with additional incentives
can increase to as much as $500.

Lifetime Value
The average tenure of a member at a Credit Union is roughly 7 years.
• Not long enough to recover the accumulated operating losses.

What’s your best cost estimate to acquire a new member?
The Real Story
• Data suggests that more than 90% of institutions under-estimate true Customer Acquisition Costs.
• Credit Unions continue to engage in member acquisition marketing campaigns that generate operating losses.

Finding Profitable Members
• While creating awareness, mass media does not let you target high potential members.
• Finding and adding more unprofitable members has a negative impact on the institution’s health.
The Big Question
What percent of your members are most profitable?

A Bigger Question!
Why spend $500 to recruit
a new member
with a high probability of attrition
and potential lifetime
value of $140?

Make it “sticky”
Reduce Attrition & Cross Sell
• You have a 50/50 chance of keeping a member who has only a savings account with your credit union active in the first year, but…• 10 times more likely to keep a member who has both a
checking account and a savings account.
• 18 times more likely to keep a member who has a checking account, a savings account and an installment loan.
• 100 times more likely to keep a member who has a checking account, a savings account, an installment loan and a safe deposit box.
