About the FI GROW Team

Our Mission

At FI GROW we believe traditional bank marketing is broken. Fragmented digital efforts waste money and produce bleak results. We create digital experiences that align your marketing and sales efforts and enable your financial institution to have a meaningful impact and achieve your goals.

Our objective is to enable community-based financial institutions to use digital marketing success to drive purposeful and lasting impacts in their local communities.

Our Solution

We build robust digital branch experiences that put marketing and sales on the same team while also creating an impeccable user experience for customers.

Digital branches replace old school websites and disjointed marketing channels so you can delight customers, create a more positive workplace, and ensure your institution will not only grow but thrive in the evolving digital economy.
