Paul Bischmann named Vice President of Business Development at VisionBank
VisionBank is pleased to announce the January 2020 appointment of Paul Bischmann as their new Vice President of Business Development. By leveraging VisionBank's best practices along with his own extensive financial expertise, Paul partners with business and individual customers to deliver a relationship-based approach tailored to their specific needs and goals. Paul is also passionate about cultivating the VisionBank brand with an expanded focus on new product development and deposit acquisition strategy, as well as elevating sales culture through mentoring and motivating team members to their highest possible level of professional growth. But he is most excited for the opportunity to be a part of VisionBank’s dedicated effort to provide expert relationship management to any current or potential clients across the Topeka and Kansas City Metropolitan market areas who are looking to proactively and exponentially build their businesses.
“The addition of Paul to our team allows our bank to keep up with continued demand for quality banking products from a locally-owned bank,” says bank President, Gary Yager. “Our bank was founded on the belief that a bank can best provide excellent, personalized service to its customers when it is rooted in the community it serves and isn't part of a giant banking conglomerate. Paul knows our branch markets so well, and his sincerity with customers and team members paired with his innovative ideas make him an ideal match for VisionBank.”
After majoring in Theatre & Film at the University of Kansas, Bischmann managed restaurants and night clubs in downtown Lawrence, KS for over a decade before transitioning to a highly successful career in the financial sector. His 15 years in banking leadership has equipped him with the experience to compliment VisionBank in all aspects of business development. In addition to his professional duties he has also enjoyed serving as a Community Organizer for ‘One Million Cups’ entrepreneurial workshops for over 4 years.
Founded in 2005 VisionBank has always taken pride in providing impactful value to the municipalities in which they reside as the premier community banking and lending option, and further distinguish themselves from their competition with an exceptionally agile portfolio of personal and commercial product offerings. Unlike regional or national corporate banking institutions, VisionBank is deeply committed to exceeding their client’s expectations through an unparalleled team of knowledgeable banking professionals who truly embrace delivering the highest possible standard of customer service. With the Overland Park location in addition to their two flagship Topeka branches, VisionBank is uniquely positioned for prolific growth and success in the expanding market areas they proudly support and serve.
