Insights from Bank Business News Featuring Pulsate CEO Sarah Martin
Sarah Martin, CEO of Pulsate, was recently featured in Bank Business News alongside other industry leaders to discuss the transformative trends shaping banking in 2025. At Pulsate, we’re driven by a mission to reimagine banking’s digital landscape, and Sarah’s insights capture how banks can embrace these trends to create meaningful customer connections and drive growth.
The New Paradigm: Digital Platforms as Profit Centers
“In 2025, digital banking platforms will no longer be viewed as transactional cost centers,” Sarah states. “Instead, they’ll be reimagined as profit centers with immense potential.” With up to 30% of customers checking their banking apps daily, there’s a golden opportunity for banks to meet their customers where they are—not just with transactions but with meaningful, tailored micro-engagements.
But here’s the catch: Many banks are falling short. “Current digital platforms often function as facilitators,” Sarah notes. “They’re good at processing transactions but lack the ability to recognize and address customer needs in real-time.” Pulsate aims to change that, enabling banks to transition from reactive to proactive customer engagement.
Bridging the Gap: Unlocking New Opportunities
“Banks have a unique opportunity to set new benchmarks for customer engagement,” Sarah explains. By embracing data-driven strategies and advanced technologies, banks can provide seamless and personalized experiences that resonate with their customers. With the right tools, banks can not only match but exceed expectations, creating a competitive advantage in the evolving digital landscape.
Sarah emphasizes that the journey begins with leveraging advanced analytics, automation, and soon-to-come AI—not as buzzwords, but as practical tools for real-world transformation. “The key is focusing on solutions that align with your bank’s goals and customer needs,” she says.
Data: The Untapped Goldmine
One of Sarah’s most compelling insights revolves around the power of data. “Every customer interaction generates data,” she says. “Whether it’s logging in, making a payment, or responding to a digital message, these touchpoints are invaluable clues to customer needs.” The challenge? Volume. With so many data points, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed. Sarah’s advice: “Start small. Focus on one data point, leverage it to benefit your customers, and build from there.”
Empowering Banks: Pulsate’s Vision for 2025
Under Sarah’s leadership, Pulsate is at the forefront of helping banks harness these transformative trends. From data-driven insights to intuitive user interfaces, Pulsate’s Opportunities Engine is designed to drive growth, deepen customer relationships, and enhance operational efficiency.
“The future of banking isn’t just digital,” Sarah concludes. “It’s intelligent, personalized, and human-centric. At Pulsate, we’re not just building technology; we’re building the future of how banks connect with their customers.”
