How to Build Financial Relationships

<p>How many people do you share all your financials with? We sit down with commercial banking relationship manager, Drew Shiavone. We talk about financing for business owners and how to have conversations involving sensitive financial topics.</p><p>--</p><p>My name is Drew Schiavone and I am a Commercial Banking Relationship Manager for First Citizens Bank in Columbia, SC.  After graduating from The University of South Carolina with majors in finance and economics I went straight into a leadership development program with BB&T (Now Truist).  The first two years of my career were spent in an underwriting/analyst role for large industrial and large commercial real estate portfolios.  I have spent the last 6 years as a commercial relationship manager calling on CEOs and CFOs of small $50+ million revenue companies.  In my role, I am primarily responsible for client management, pipeline development, and financial analysis/debt structuring for companies in various industries.</p><p>I believe in being an active citizen in my community and most recently have been involved through my board service with the United Way and Richland County First Steps.  Due predominately to my volunteerism, I was recently named a top 10 finalist for the Columbia Young Professional of the year.</p><p>On a personal note, I enjoy good food, traveling, golf, and Gamecock football.  My wife and I just celebrated our 1 year anniversary and we are crazy dog parents to 1-year-old golden retriever. </p><p>~ ~ ~</p><p>Support the show on Patreon <a href="https://www.patreon.com/norlund"><strong>@norlund</strong></a></p><p>Your help goes a really long ways!</p><p>Check out more details about the show and t-shirts at <a href="http://thebluersky.com"><strong>thebluersky.com</strong></a></p><p>Follow on Twitter <a href="https://twitter.com/chris_norlund"><strong>@chris_norlund</strong></a></p><p>Follow on Instagram <a href="https://www.instagram.com/norlund/"><strong>@norlund</strong></a></p><p>Stay positive and thank you so much for listening!</p>
