The Iowa Bankers Association offers the following marketing programs to help support member banks’ marketing efforts.
Bank Perks
This program provides member banks with an affordable and customizable checking account program to generate non-interest income.
Scenes of Iowa Calendars
The Iowa Bankers Association offers the Scenes of Iowa calendar, developed exclusively for member banks, using photographs taken of Iowa scenes by Iowa bankers, their family members or bank directors.
The calendar is a high-quality, low-cost marketing tool and is custom imprinted for each bank with their logo, office locations, website address, etc. Thank your bank customers for their business with the Scenes of Iowa calendar. They will enjoy the scenic tour through Iowa’s four distinctive seasons and your bank name and logo will be in their home or business all year long.
2024 Calendars Now Available for Order!
IBA member banks may place calendar orders online. Calendars ordered by Aug. 4 receive the early bird rate of $1.45 per calendar. Orders received after Aug. 4, but by Sept. 1, will be $1.55 per calendar. The last day to order 2024 Scenes of Iowa calendars is Sept. 1 and all calendars will be shipped by Nov. 1. Please direct questions to Disa Erickson at (515) 286-2901.
Unfortunately, inflation has also impacted the printing industry. Due to increased paper, printing, fuel and shipping costs, the price per calendar increased this year. The IBA is working closely with our print vendor to evaluate ways to best mitigate future increases.
Now Accepting Photos for 2025
The Iowa Bankers Association is now accepting submissions for the 2025 “Scenes of Iowa” calendar photo contest. Iowa bankers, bank directors, and anyone related to either are eligible to submit photo entries. If you’d like your creativity displayed in homes across Iowa, send in your photos that depict life in Iowa and its four distinctive seasons (e.g., farms, historical locations, seasonal colors/ landscapes).
To submit your photos, please complete the Scenes of Iowa Photo Contest Entry Form and email your form along with your photos to derickson@iowabankers.com. Participants may submit up to 12 photos. The deadline for submissions is Dec. 15, 2023.
