Why not?


Just as banking had become reduced to ATMs, Umpqua flipped the script by encouraging it’s customers to not only bank inside, but to stay a while. Their branches offered free computer lounges, coffee, yoga and local bands with an emphasis on hospitality. Umpqua’s zag to make the bank a community hub again was unexpected and successful. We made sure their marketing was too.
