What can you share with entrepreneurs that they should know in their relationship with a processor?
You want to understand who you’re doing business with. The ethics of the company that you’re doing business with is hugely important and U.S. Bank has continually been recognized as the world’s most ethical company. Partnering with a company that’s going to help you grow and considering your business long-term is also very important.
Can you share just a little insight about how you envision both your time and your talent being shared at RICE?
We intend to be a hub inside of RICE. We want to have a presence there. We want to have meet-and-greets there. We want to have bankers there. We want to have [opportunities] for you to understand our process and all of those things that are important to you as a business owner, so we plan to be part of the community. The goal is for you to at any time, be able to bump into myself or Jamie, or some other executive from Elavon, U.S. Bank, and ask a question about your business.
