Denny Hatch Great Story

Good Day
The following story is from the marketing blog of Denny Hatch, renowned publisher,marketing expert, and copywriter:
“Frank Brock was president, First Bank of Troy, Idaho. In 1960 Troy’s population was 555. Frank Brock’s bank had 6,000 active accounts.

He had customers in 45 states and around the world as distant as Pago Pago and American Samoa.
Frank Brock knew precisely what business he was in. “I am in the business of providing financial services for my customers-from cradle to grave.”
Brock’s Very Personal Approach
Brock knew virtually all his customers by their first names. His day was spent on the phone with customers, clipping newspapers and dealing with correspondence. Whenever a customer married, died, moved away, gave birth, etc., Brock sent a personal remembrance.
