The Five-Minute Branch
New York metropolitan area
A compact branch with no teller line organizes five-minute conversations around one real-life money task.
Concept image / not client workHelp a fictional credit union start useful acquisition conversations with younger New Yorkers while protecting privacy and avoiding high-pressure selling.
Audience / Freelancers, hourly workers, and first-time savers who want practical answers before choosing a financial institution.
Guests choose one private topic card—irregular income, first emergency fund, shared rent, or rebuilding a banking routine.
Trained educators use laminated scenario boards and neutral examples; ambassadors never ask for account balances or provide individualized financial advice.
A privacy screen lets interested guests check eligibility and book a branch or video appointment on the institution's secure device flow.
Daily compliance review samples talk tracks, consent language, lead handling, and the physical security of all devices.
TARGET, NOT RESULT.
