Trailblazers 40 Below Lindsay Thomas: Find Your Niche

Want to compete? Seek out members your credit union is relevant to.

That’s how we compete,” Thomas said. “Even the largest credit union is small compared to Wal-Mart. We, as credit unions, need to find our niche. We can either go after the same people or let Wal-Mart serve those and we’ll serve our niche differently.”
