The Irish Tech News Podcast Delight is a deposit strategy
🎙️ "Delight is a deposit strategy."
In this episode of One Vision Podcast, Angela Scott, Sales Enablement leader at Zions, joins host Theodora Lau, to discuss her idea that “delight is a deposit strategy,” arguing banks can win deposits by creating intuitive, responsive, and even enjoyable experiences that make money movement easy, especially when digital experiences are constrained by shared core and app vendors.
They get into:
Why delight isn’t fluff
Why the best deposit strategy makes money easy to move in and out
The chick-and-egg trap of building on the same handful of core and app providers
Financial literacy, and why communities shouldn’t bear the burden
Why we need to make banking more legible
Angela stresses balancing efficiency and humanity through employee, digital, and brand experience to build trust.
💬 “If you want deposits, you have to bring the right environment to set them free.”
