Coopera (ko – pair – a)
Coopera means “cooperate” in Spanish.
To cooperate - because that’s our approach in all that we do.

Common Missteps – Above Surface
• Assumption that translated materials, bilingual personnel, and marketing will be enough
• The right identification policies but not enough understanding/training about why they are important and about their implications
• Assumption that translation of existing English materials would be appropriate for this market
• Spending more money on media buys and advertising than on financial education, partnerships and outreach
• Relegation of initiative to one or several individuals
• Paralysis by analysis
• Ignoring the implications of immigration
• Top-down buy-in does not exist or is seen as lip service
• Desire for a “light-switch” solution

Common Objections – Below Surface• “Hispanics should just learn English.”
• “We have translated all of our materials – that should be enough to attract Hispanics.”
• “Hispanics are low-income – they will be a drain on our bottom line.”
• “Hispanics are undocumented – they will cause compliance and risk issues when they get deported.”
• “We will alienate our existing membership.”
• “Our members think our products are great. Hispanics must not have a need for them, because they are not using them.”
• “We know that we are not serving Hispanics well, but we won’t target them specifically because we don’t target any group exclusively.”
• “We have had that policy for years.”
• “We don’t do community outreach because we need everyone working in our branches.”
• “We only provide deposit, loan, and investment products – not those other products Hispanics use when they are at a check-casher.”
• “Hispanics should just go back to their country.”
• “This is not a market I know anything about so this initiative has nothing to do with me.”

Is considering a Hispanic outreach initiativeWould like more information about the opportunity in serving the Hispanic marketDoes not know where to start but has a growth mentality and the will to succeedMay have some limited unintentional experience with the Hispanic communityMay have “dipped their toe in the water” with some disparate ad hoc initiatives
As a whole, recognizes the philosophical and business imperative of serving Hispanics Has put in place a vast majority of groundwork and foundation-building steps that help the credit union adapt to the market instead of waiting for the market to adapt to the credit unionIs comfortable with serving Hispanics as a method for inclusion and maintains strong member service among all membersIs looking for new/fresh ideas and has a growth mentalityHas established sustainable success, however has not emerged to a place of dominance within their local Hispanic market.
Has successfully served the Hispanic market for yearsHas captured more than their proportional market share of Hispanic membersIs widely considered a preferred financial institution within the local Hispanic communityIs regarded as a best practice within the industryContinues to provide superior service to all members and maintains an innovative culture poised for growth

Groundwork
T1 Board of directors has, collaboratively with management, developed a strategic plan with milestones and goals for serving Hispanic populations
Complete a comprehensive strategic plan on an annual basis. Review collectively as a management group and with board of directors on a quarterly basis. Engagement of board members is as important as gaining their buy-in, because it will help them become champions of the initiative.
Personnel
T1 All employees are trained on the business case for serving Hispanics
All staff should be trained on the Hispanic opportunity. New employee orientation should also leverage Coopera's training expertise and include information about the business case including the Hispanic opportunity and the extent to which the Hispanic market is underserved.
Products
T1 Credit union provides special purpose loans to pay for quinceañera expenses.
Quinceañeras are traditional celebrations in the Hispanic community that are often costly. Repackaging an existing personal loan to meet this need would be appealing to this market.
Processes
T1 Credit union tracks language preference, place of birth, and income of members while maintaining anti-discriminatory practices
Utilize appended data resources available through Coopera and commit to a regular schedule of measurement of progress.
Promotion and Marketing
Strategy
T1 Credit union has developed a marketing plan to reach Hispanic populations
While Hispanic outreach is a part of the credit union’s overall marketing plans, a specific marketing plan should be developed emphasizing word of mouth and grassroots strategies to reach primary and secondary targets.
Print Collateral, Advertising, Signage
T1 Relevant signage uses culturally relevant images and messages
Not all relevant signage has been translated including bilingual branch hours posted on doors, patriot act requirements and NCUA signs.
Web Site/Technology
T2 Credit union has a culturally relevant Spanish Web site The credit union does not have a Spanish Web site.
Location
T1 Branch is children-friendly and is relevant to Hispanic children
More can be done at the Denison and E. Des Moines branches to create a welcoming environment for Hispanic children. Consider having a children’s area with English and Spanish materials such as coloring books and financial education materials.
