Willamette Community Bank’s 2011 “Customer Success Stories”

Total Value – Any bank can offer deals…..for us it’s about total value. The Willamette Community Bank team knows our business well….It seemed like it only took moments to validate an opportunity with the purchase of a new high-technology machine-tool. Our financing needs were met with competitive rates, great terms,speed and convenience. A bank that truly understands how you do business is rare; all the way down to knowing many of us by name. Believe me: Willamette Community Bank has “service like no other” I promise.

Always There – Willamette Community Bank continually exceeds their motto ”to provide service like no other”. They have provided me with outstanding financing and support which allowed me to build my practice. They have never let me down and are always there when I need them.

Choose Local – What other bank can you call to get your deposits and a real person reads them off to you? Instead of asking to see my drivers license before every transaction, they greet me by name as I come through the front door. The tellers ask about my day, make sure all of my banking needs are met and I get a Werther’s Chewy Caramel on my way out the door. With our restaurants, we try to source as much local product as we can, so it only makes sense that we bank with a local company. Choose local. It matters.

Friendliest Bank – Willamette Community Bank is by far the friendliest bank we have ever worked. No other place I go to has practically everyone calling to me “Hi” when I walk in. That’s a great feeling. We have a unique loan with the Bank and the staff has gone way over the top to work with us. This adds up to Service Like No Other. We have worked with larger banks in the past and there is no customer service and no real caring for small businesses like ours. Willamette is for us.

Long Standing Relationships – I am extremely pleased to be a customer of Willamette Community Bank. I have found their service at both the local branch and their lending division to be unsurpassed. I have recommended the Bank to several of my clients for varied reasons and they have all appreciated the referral because of the service they have also received. I like working with a community bank and appreciate their knowledge of the economics of the local area.

Partnership- I would like to thank you for being my banker. When I met you I was with a big name bank that did not share the same ideas and goals that I have. They were more on the bank’s goals. Which is okay for the bank, but I want to be in it for the long term. When we talked, I shared my goals with you and the direction I wanted to go. You could see a clear vision in the company. At that point I felt a partnership with Willamette Community Bank. Because when a small business succeeds we all succeed. So I want to thank you and your staff which was very helpful in transferring our assets to Willamette Community Bank.

Best Service – The service that your staff offers in unparalleled, truly “like no other” in my experience. In the last week of December I found myself up against a deadline to make an equipment purchase before January 1st. I called Willamette Community Bank on Wednesday and was funded on Friday. Out of dozens of finance deals that I have been through, this was by far the best service I have ever received.

Thank you-

I felt it necessary to share with you what you and your bank has done for DnB Painting. We now have 30 employees which is an increase from 7. We are doing 4 prevailing wage jobs, a 54 unit new apartment complex in Dallas, at least one new home per week and so many other things that I couldn’t begin to list them. We have more work for the summer than we can almost handle at this point. Without you, This would not have been possible!!!!!!!  It has been quite a challenge to say the least but we are on the right course and thru God you have made it all possible!

Thank You SO MUCH!!!!!!
