> Bank branches exist to sell new accounts. They are sited to maximize new accounts and the value of those accounts.

Funny, just recently I was trying to help someone switch banks and we went to 3 different branch locations in an attempt to open a new account.

The first didn’t have any reps working that could help open a new account and the other two didn’t have any availability to help with opening a new account and requested we schedule an appointment and come back.

We went online to schedule an appointment but the first available slot was at least 2 weeks out.
