Banks coming to me

:

I'm starting a new business and recently registered for a corporate license. A week later a Business Banker showed up at my current place of business to introduce himself and to see if I would consider opening my new business account with his bank (Chase Bank). He went on to say that his bank is not the big, impersonal bank I may think that it is (really now). Not to mention his bank is right across the way from my business.

Well this is a first for me. In all the years I've been in business (19 yrs), I've never had a banker show up and ask me to open an account with his bank. This is an uncommon economic indicator.
