"The challenge is always how do you remind everybody in the day to day that [long-term relationship building] is the goal. You have your setup where you have your manufacturing side of the business deciding lending policy and then you have your distribution, still pretty much set up by channel. They're not usually pretty well connected... Making sure that users feel valued, they feel safe, they're protected, and that the things that are being served to them are appropriate to them is hugely valuable for businesses." – Robyn Eastlake Listen nowWhat you'll learn
