Special Edition of Radio Free CU Show: This week we will look back at our show on the Millennial Generation (see featured show below) and talk about what Credit Unions can do to engage this young and vital demographic. The 3 young Millennials who were on the original have passed Credit Union info on that show via facebook, twitter and myspace to over 50 of their friends and family. This show will be full of useful and workable solutions for successfully engaging the future members and employees of Generation Next. We will blend live radio with educational content that you would expect to find at a conference event. Join us.

All radio shows are archived if you can’t listen at noon EST.

We interviewed 3 members of the Millennial Generation. This was an eye-opening look at a generation who does not trust the word “free” or understand the term “Checking.” Therefore, “free checking” may resonate with them about as much as, “in-dash-8-track-tape-deck.” This is the generation that is going to change everything. This is generation next.
