28 JANUARY / FEBRUARY 2018 PRODUCTS & SERVICES PROFILE Quality Products And ‘top-shelf’ service Article author Rod Lasley Vice President - Products & Services Indiana Bankers Association rlasley@indianabankers.org @rodlasley FF&S, newly relocated in Anderson, has been serving Indiana banks since 1986. This longevity has been achieved by listening and providing comprehensive solutions to clients’ needs in the areas of printing, forms and office supplies. With more than 30 years of experience, the FF&S team understands the unique needs of financial institutions and focuses on being flexible and creative in meeting those needs at a scale that makes sense for each individual institution. Jeff Williams, the owner since 2006, prides himself and the company on being a partner with the bank, not just a supply vendor. FF&S works diligently to adapt its products and processes to best fit each financial institution’s operations. The company continually monitors each client’s use of products and provides recommendations to improve efficiency. In today’s environment, financial institutions not only want the product, but they want it when they want it and how they want it. FF&S is always working to streamline ordering and delivery methods to minimize the amount of time necessary to fulfill the request. While Indiana is home for FF&S, you have the comfort of knowing the company has vast experience, working with over 300 banks nationwide. It currently has 38 employees, including three full-time sales representatives covering the Indiana market. By working with over 70 banks in Indiana alone, FF&S is able to manage your warehousing and distribution needs efficiently, using various locations throughout the state. Speaking of distribution, one trait that sets FF&S apart from many other supply providers is the fact that it doesn’t simply deliver to your door and leave a pallet of items in your lobby for you to deal with. Instead, FF&S delivers on the shelf, exactly where you want it – even if it’s on the top shelf. By focusing on banks, FF&S has any item you need in your bank – from letterhead, forms and envelopes to deposit slips, loan tickets and business cards; from promotional items, copier toner and office furniture, to break room and custodial items. All of these quality offerings are available to you through a customized online store, allowing your staff to order items quickly and efficiently, while also providing management with the appropriate detailed reports of activity and accounting entry for month-end balancing. With your Indiana Bankers Association membership, the set-up and installation of this tremendous service is provided at a heavily discounted rate.
