In 2013, Connexus assisted the Small Business Banking Network (SBBN) with its strategic planning, focusing on partnerships and how to yield more impact for the small business banking industry. Connexus worked closely with SBBN management and the board to move toward a sustainable business model. In reviewing the final version of the strategic plan, Gantt chart, and financial projections, the board acknowledged that Connexus had helped SBBN make “quite a lot of progress” and “brought more clarity of what to pursue and not to pursue” in the years ahead.
