Marketing RAP Returns May 7: AI Strategies + CEO Insights You Won’t Want to Miss

Community bank marketers, now is the time to secure your spot for CBA’s Marketing RAP on May 7 at Georgia Banking Company in Atlanta.

With just two weeks to go, this is your opportunity to step away from the day-to-day and invest in ideas, insights, and connections that can strengthen your bank’s marketing strategy for the rest of 2026.

A featured highlight of the day is Chris Bates, CEO of Agora Eversole Marketing Agency, who will lead an interactive session, The New Bank Marketing Playbook: How Modern Banks are Adapting to AI and Customer Expectations. Chris will share a strategic framework for identifying your best-fit customers, sharpening your messaging, and using AI and digital tools to create more efficient, results-driven campaigns.

You’ll also hear directly from the C-suite during a special CEO Panel featuring:

• Ross Mynatt, President & CEO, Craft Bank
• Chad Jones, President & CEO, First Bank of Alabama

This candid conversation will offer valuable executive-level perspective on what successful marketing looks like from the top — from measuring ROI and strengthening brand presence to gaining leadership alignment and buy-in.

Beyond the sessions, Marketing RAP offers one of the best opportunities to connect with fellow community bank marketers, exchange ideas, and learn what’s working across the industry. Don’t miss this chance to gain fresh strategies, hear directly from bank CEOs, and return to your bank with ideas you can put to work right away. Register today and join us May 7 in Atlanta.
