How do we describe the holiday season? Magical, wonderful, exciting, warm… busy, stressful, distracting. If we’re being completely honest, the holidays make it really hard to stay focus and remain productive among the crammed schedules and extra time off. Aside from the hustle and bustle of family plans and travel, you’re likely finding your schedule filled holiday parties, charity drives, and many other events the season brings.
We often see challenges as a new generation grows and begins to integrate itself into adulthood. It’s not news to anyone that the Millennial generation at large has struggled to integrate with older generations. With the rising trends and news stories of the war between the Baby Boomer generation and Millennials, it’s becoming increasingly apparent that institutions like banks must appeal to adults with a wide variance of expectations, preferences, and needs.
Teslar is excited to announce that we will be attending the 26th Annual Acquire or Be Acquired (AOBA) Conference in January 2020 in Phoenix, AZ.
It started with Black Friday. Now we have Small Business Saturday, Flannel Friday, Cyber Monday… so many fun things to end our Thanksgiving holiday with. On the tail end of this list we have Giving Tuesday, the Tuesday after Thanksgiving each year.
Small Business Saturday is an annual tradition that occurs the Saturday after Thanksgiving. Locals are encouraged to “shop small” and show support to the diverse businesses in their community. The holiday was created by American Express in 2010 and has seen rapid growth every year since.
We hope you all enjoy good company, a great feast, and make the best memories today! Perhaps the best thing about Thanksgiving is the chance to show your gratitude to those who mean the most to you.
For many of us, Thanksgiving offers no gifts or events, less hustle and bustle, and lots of time together with our loved ones, delicious food, and grateful hearts. With this downtime typically comes every family’s unique traditions. We’ve asked our employees here at Teslar to share some of their favorite Thanksgiving traditions they look forward to each year and now we’re sharing them with you! With their help, we’ve compiled a list of fun Thanksgiving traditions you can adopt in your own family.
What a wonderful time of year. This week families and friends will gather together to celebrate and give thanks for all of the amazing things life has to offer. Thanksgiving is one of the few holidays that does not typically offer gift-giving, just simply centers around connecting with loved ones.
Financial well-being defines all the intricacies of your money management. It goes beyond your income and credit score. It’s about your relationship with money—how you behave with money and how you spend money. Regardless of how large your income, if you are spending everything you make you are not getting wealthier, just living a higher lifestyle.
Community banks today are finding themselves under mounting pressure. The battle for deposits is more critical than ever before, new entrants to the space are creating unprecedented competition, customer expectations continue to climb and technology is evolving at a rapid rate. Not to mention, these institutions are expected to effectively manage and maintain regulatory requirements, security protocols and growing their portfolios – all within set budgets.
