August 21, 2009 Maine credit unions are reaching out to new and potential members where they are - online! Maine CUs can now be found on the social networking site, Facebook. The profile includes polls, videos, and pictures that share how credit unions are active in Maine communities. It is also a place to get the latest updates on new credit union, ATM and shared branching locations. This is part of Maine credit unions' expanding social media presence, which includes a blog, titled "What's More in Maine." Here, visitors can find frequently updated posts that discuss why Maine is a great place to live, work and play. The blog is a part of Maine credit unions' new consumer website, www.mainecreditunions.org.
"The primary goal of Maine credit unions is serving their members. That means playing an active role in their lives, providing them with the access, information, and news they need to thrive financially," explained John Murphy, President of the Maine Credit Union League. "Increasing the presence of Maine credit unions through social media offers members another way to connect and communicate with their credit union, or to find a credit union that meets their needs."
