ABOUT
Remedy Gives Back
We Support Our Community
The Remedy Gives Back program was created to support the local communities where our bank/credit union clients are across the United States. During the holiday season each year, we ask our clients we served in that fiscal year to submit local charities that they would like to support through the Gives Back program. In December, the Remedy Team meets and decides which non-profit organization to fund that year and then we ask the bank or credit union to present the check on behalf of Remedy Consulting. Also, we select local charities in Southeastern Wisconsin as most of the team is based in Wisconsin.
Below is a sample list of the organizations that received Remedy Gives Back funds:

After completing one renewal on your own, it was evident that market pricing information was necessary for an effective negotiation. Remedy was able to provide that plus other contract information that made for a positive renewal. Remedy was able to achieve more than our expectations, including significantly lower rates.
Amy Johnson, COO
Dairy State Bank, Rice Lake, WI
Remedy Consulting was able to achieve much more than our expectations during our core contract negotiation including significantly lower rates and contract language that much more favorable to the bank. We were extremely impressed with the project management and professionalism shown by the Remedy Team. Highly recommended.
Walker Jordan, President
Bank of Monticello
Cornerstone Bank thanks Remedy Consulting as a strategic partner in core contract negotiation. Brian, Project Manager, streamlined the process of our core vendor renewal and advised us as to the new technologies that we could continue/implement and still receive a cost reduction on our five-year contract. We are happy to highly recommend Brian and the Remedy Team.
John Doull, President
Cornerstone Bank, Overland Park, KS
We wanted to ensure our pricing and contract terms were in line with those of other financial institutions. Remedy had the tools and knowledge to help us out. The process, from beginning to end, lasted about 4 months. Remedy took care of all the negotiations and simply kept us apprised of where the negotiations were at and how they were going.
Ben Hansen, CEO
RSNB Bank, Rock Springs, WY
Our organization was engaged in a negotiation with our core provider for a contract renewal. Although we were already well into the process, I made the decision to hire Remedy because I felt the negotiations were taking too long and consuming too much of my management team's time.
Josh Hoppes, CEO
Mutual Savings Association, Leavenworth, KS
