Southern Bancorp's Customer Connection - A different kind of newsletter from a different kind of bank
View this email in your browser

We understand. The idea of reading a bank newsletter probably ranks somewhere between cleaning out gutters and getting a root canal...but before you hit the delete button, give ours a chance! It's a different newsletter because we're a different kind of bank. We were founded to spark economic growth in underserved communities and help families and small businesses strengthen their financial foundation...while hopefully having some fun along the way. We hope you'll enjoy this quick peek inside Southern Bancorp as much as we enjoy having you as a customer!

While you can certainly open a bank account and apply for a loan with us, did you know that in several of our locations you can also receive credit and home buyer counseling? Or get trained on starting a business? Or even get your taxes done for free? These are just a few of the examples of how we go Beyond Banking.

To learn more, check out the story of Vernetha Jackson, an amazing woman who had long dreamed of owning her own home but thought that dream was out of reach. That is, of course, until she learned about the unique services at Southern Bancorp. We worked with her to chart a course that would turn her dream into a reality.

We love our people! And that's we decided to show them off in a recent ad campaign! In several markets, we invited staff to dress up in the jerseys of their alma mater. They were great "sports" about it and ended up having a lot of fun! Follow us on Instagram for more fun photos!
