Some analysts argue that Internet banking is revolutionizing the banking industry. Others see the Internet as simply adding another delivery channel for remote banking to existing channels such as automated teller machines (ATMs) and telephone banking. As with other areas of e-commerce, discussions about Internet banking often proceed without reference to the actual state of market developments. While Internet banking is the subject of a large amount of industry discussion, it remains the case that only a small percentage of banking transactions are done online, and only about a third of all banks currently offer online savings. Nevertheless, the adoption of Internet banking by banks has grown at a very rapid pace, and many banks, including some of the nation’s largest institutions, have made the development of services over the Internet a major component of their business and marketing strategy.

Despite popular impressions, and the rapid growth in the number of banks offering online banking since the beginning of the “Internet era” in financial services several years ago, a minority of banks in the United States offered transactional Internet banking as 2001 began. For purposes of this article, we define a bank as offering “transactional” Internet banking if it provides the ability for bank customers to transact business (e.g. access accounts and transfer funds, apply for an account or a loan). By “Internet bank” we mean any bank offering Internet banking, including, but not limited to, “Internet-only” banks.

Internet banking  is a subject receiving great attention in the banking industry and the regulatory community. To some extent, the intense interest in Internet banking reflects a more general interest in the role of the Internet as a vehicle for commercial activity. However, interest in Internet banking may be particularly keen since a strong case can be made that banking, along with other financial services, provides a particularly fertile environment for the development of e-commerce. At its core, banking and money market account involves the collection, storage, transfer and processing of information assets, and the Internet is an incredibly powerful and efficient tool for handling these information processes.

Creating the right team is imperative to your success. A team is comprised of people who can bring necessary skill sets to the venture. A team is different from partners. Partners are financially and legally tied to the venture while team members are brought in to create and continue the process. Team members can be employees or sub-contactors.

These are people you can control – you get to pick them. You can use their services for as long as you like. If they don’t work out as planned, you can find a different team member or you can find a place on the team where this person can be more effective.

Creating the right environment for the team is equally important. People will give their best when they feel that their services are being valued and that they are entrusted with producing a part of the success of the venture. Team members must have the same values as that of the venture and they must follow the same code of conduct consistent with your desired outcome. They must truly want the venture to be a success and feel that they are a part of that success. They must work well with the other team members.

Differences are encouraged only if they are presented in a positive fashion, recognizing the efforts of the others. Each team member must give more than they are asked for in their areas of expertise. This does not mean extra hours; it means working with heart and soul, working with the creative minds flowing, working with a positive mental attitude, and working together with the others so that all are winners.

What ideas do you have that will create a positive, successful team? How can you create this team and have each person feel that they are as important a part of the success of the venture as you are? Study successful entities to find out how they treat their team members. Find out what motivates team members in successful entities to keep them successful – is it money, power, trust, fear, etc.? Thinking these things out before you create the team will help you in putting together the right team for your venture.

You should write out all the positions of your team and keep updating it as you grow as when you grow you will need to change out some positions on your team. This is a big mistake that people make as they grow. They keep the same team members that were effective when they were small and they do not re-evaluate the need for replacing members who have not grown to levels where they are now needed. Therefore the overall team growth is limited by the lack of ability of one or more members. Just like upgrading your peer group, always be open to and active in upgrading your team members.

You must strive to place the right people on your team. This goes for all positions you pay for, including lawyers, accountants, advisors, sub contractors etc. Be clear on what is a must upfront and make the positions open as specific as possible.

If you are just starting out then make your team as simple and complete as possible. Just be sure that your team members are able to excel and have knowledge in the industry and direction you are going in. The last thing you want to do is to have to micromanage your team members. If you find you are doing so you have made a mistake and replace them right away.

Your team members must be proactive to your needs and outcome. If not replace them or place them in a position where they can be more effective. Please always keep in mind that in most cases you are paying for their services in one manner or another. Never pay a team member 100% upfront for their services as this always gives them something to aspire to. Placing the right team members in the right place will make your endeavor soar.
