Retail Account Opening Validation
An Ethnographic Research Study
What research challenge were we asked to solve?
The project team was asked to develop a tool that can be used across channels to facilitate consistent relationship building, identify consumer goals and financial needs, personalize product recommendations, and improve the referral process.
The new process tool was piloted in branches during Fall 2018. In the first quarter of 2019, the tool was piloted within the phone bank.
Because the phone bank is a different channel than the branches, with different resources, limitations, and goals (for customers, colleagues, and the business overall), it was important to test this tool within its’ intended setting to gauge how appropriate it is within this channel.
To comply with my non-disclosure agreement, I have omitted and obscured confidential information in this case study.
