On this episode of The ASHHRA Podcast, we delve into the current system of employee compensation. Hosts Bo and Luke are joined by guest speakers Rob Frohwein and Kathryn Petralia, co-founders of Keep Financial. They discuss the flaws in the traditional bi-weekly payment system and how it benefits payroll companies, banks, and intermediaries more than the employees and employers themselves. The conversation shifts towards the potential benefits of restructuring compensation to eliminate middlemen, save on fees, and take advantage of the time value of money. This shift could lead to increased employee retention, easier attraction of talent, and better overall performance. The current system, they argue, is not aligned with the way businesses operate or how employees manage their lifestyle. The focus of this episode is on moving towards flexible compensation, where employers can customize the size of compensation and employees can personalize it to fit their specific needs. The speakers emphasize that this shift is not about making employees millionaires, but about improving their financial position and providing them with more control over their compensation.

Chris and Gerry chat with Kathryn Petralia from Keep Financial about creating equity with equity and what companies are missing.

Today's business environment – with rapidly changing employee behavior, unprecedented resignations, and evolving socio-economic conditions – has rendered traditional recruiting and retention methods ineffective.

At a high level, how are you helping HR pros, leaders and employees?  (recruitment, retention, and performance)How does high employee morale along with employee engagement lead to higher productivity, less turnover and ultimately increased compensation ROI for that organization?According to a report from The Conference Board, salary budgets are set to increase 3.9% this year – the largest amount since 2008: “The rapid increase in wages and inflation are forcing businesses to make important decisions regarding their approach to salaries, recruiting and retention. In particular, companies are likely to raise wages aggressively for their current employees or they will risk even lower retention rates.” Tell me more about the impact of increased wages and rising expectations around compensation.  Your team recently announced updates to the Keep Employee Engagement Platform (KEEP). How does KEEP offer an innovative way for employers to direct compensation into plans that enhance the engagement, retention, and performance of their most valuable employees?

We started a new recurring series with Fintech Brews & News called Women in Fintech, where we will be highlighting female founders, subject-matter-experts, and thought leaders in the fintech space! In our first episode in the series our host Nikkee Rhody sat down with Kathryn Petrailia, Co-Founder of Kabbage and her new fintech venture Keep Financial. They discuss Kathryn's journey as a female founder in the fintech space, her time at Kabbage, her new startup Keep Financial, and so much more.

Employee retention is something that many companies, large and small, struggle with constantly. Despite this obvious pain point, there has not really been a fintech-focused approach to attacking this problem. Stock options and season tickets to ballgames will only motivate, or be appropriate for, certain audiences. But everyone loves cash.My guests on today's episode of the Fintech One-on-One podcast are Rob Frohwein and Kathryn Petralia. They became big names in the fintech space as the founders of Kabbage which they sold to American Express in 2020. This dynamic duo is back with a new company called Keep Financial and they are out to revolutionize employee compensation.Connect with Fintech One-on-One: Tweet me @PeterRenton Connect with me on LinkedIn Find previous Fintech One-on-One episodes

Worried it's next to impossible to get your finances in order by this point? What if I told you it could happen by Thanksgiving? (For those of you caught in the infamous 2020 haze, that's a little more than a month away). Today our roundtable crew share their personal tricks of the trade they employ to manage their budget, lower their expenses, and keep charge of their finances. Joining us on our roundtable is the mind behind the Own Your Money brand and Stacking Benjamins' partner in our Making Money Easy course, Belinda Rosenblum; Kevin Payne from the popular Family Money Adventure blog; and basement regular Len Penzo... from the aptly named Len Penzo dot com blog. After our contributors finish sharing their top finance tips, we'll give them a break while we shine some light on small businesses and what they've been experiencing this year. Helping us shine that spotlight is Kabbage co-founder, Kathryn Petralia. Kabbage was the second biggest PPP loan provider, and Kathryn will share the mistakes she's seen businesses make, what businesses should be doing right now, and what we can maybe expect in the future. We'll finish out the show with our Magnify Money segment - our caller Jambalaya wants to self-insure his health costs. He breaks his plan for his, and makes sure to let us know that he's otherwise healthy. Jambalaya asks for our seal of approval: is his plan sound, or, in his words, "should I keep it simple stupid?" Our roundtable will share their thoughts on our caller's plan. Naturally, we'll make some airtime for Doug's Friday trivia game show. This week's question? The original iPod sale price!

The provision of financial services is profoundly changing worldwide – so much so that many commentators are predicting the death of banking as we know it. The threat of banks’ extinction is not new; it’s been heralded many times in the past. For centuries, as banks have expanded and evolved, they have faced competition from other types of financial institutions. Despite high barriers to entry and as a result, relatively low turnover, many commentators have anticipated the end of the traditional banking business model. Today, we are again experiencing radical changes in the way households and businesses transact. The primary drivers are rapid advances in technology and post-crisis changes in the financial regulatory landscape, both of which have fuelled increased competition and encouraged new entrants in the provision of financial services. Critically, today’s competition to big bank business models emanates from nonbank firms whose core strategy centres around technological innovation (Big Tech and FinTech firms) and from nonbank financial institutions (NBFIs), such as large asset managers. This event, jointly organised by Bruegel, CEPR and ECARES will feature the presentation of the the latest Geneva Report on the World Economy, authored by Thomas Philippon, Kathryn Petralia, Tara Rice and Nicolas Véron. The report reviews the financial services landscape and how it has changed over the last several decades; discusses the competition from FinTech and Big Tech; and considers critical public policy questions surrounding the future of banking and concludes with suggestions of future work.

On 24 September the CEPR launches the latest Geneva Report on the world economy, called Banking disrupted? Financial intermediation in an era of transformational technology. Tim Phillips asks Tara Rice and Kathryn Petralia, two of the authors, whether fintechs and cryptocurrencies signal the beginning of the end for banks.

In our conversation, Rob and Kathryn tell their story, on how they’ve built a company that has extended $6 billion in credit to 165,000 people in the United States. They explain how they started with e-commerce companies and now service all small businesses.  They describe their gradual realization that their loans can help these businesses manage cash flow -- a critical need. And they share their thinking on the regulatory challenges ahead for the space, including the risk that new regulation will stifle innovation.

Georgia is home to over 160 FinTech companies and organizations, making the state a global industry leader in FinTech innovation and execution. Recently, we had the opportunity to sit down with two of the founders of Kabbage, one of Atlanta’s most prolific FinTech disruptors.

On the latest episode of the SaaS Revolution Show we chat with SalesLoft CMO, Sydney Sloan. She shares lessons from her vast experience in customer-focused marketing and the metrics she has learned to swear by and report.  Sydney has always been customer focused. Even back in the 90s when there were no CRM systems and no one spoke about the importance of myopically focusing on the customer. At the time she was doing what would end up a 15 year stint at Adobe - the place Sydney says she grew up in a way. At trade shows she would stand beside her sales colleague and have long conversations with people who visited their booth about their problems and challenges. Towards the end of her time in Adobe, she finally had a more customer experience role, leading the Customer Marketing. From then on, there was no going back. Her career would see her work for companies such as Jive Software and Alfresco. A little over a year ago, she joined Salesloft where she has been building a strong relationship between Marketing and Sales and has influenced how the work of marketing is reported to the board. Listen on to hear: What are the most important metrics in B2B marketing  Which are the ones that Sydney focuses as CMO specifically Why marketing should own the pipeline Sydney Sloan is one of many excellent speakers we will host at SaaStock19 in Dublin this October alongside Claire Hughes Johnson, COO, Stripe, Leela Srinivasan, CMO, Survey Monkey, Kathryn Petralia, Co-Founder and President, Kabbage, and Girish Mathrubootham, CEO, Freshworks.

On the latest episode of the SaaS Revolution Show, we host Rory O'Driscoll, Partner of Scale Venture Partners and talk about the things he believes SaaS entrepreneurs should be mindful of even as the SaaS industry seems to be thriving. Originally from Ireland, Rory moved to California 28 years ago. For 25 of those, he has been investing in enterprise software with Scale Venture Partners and its predecessor. In that time he has learned a lot of things about the world of venture funding, starting with the fact of just how deceivingly easy all of it seems, yet how difficult it is to make the right decisions about entrepreneurs and their companies and have the conviction to see them through the tough times.   Rory has also learned to count his blessings and remember that a lot of the successful bets he has made have a lot to do with luck. That humbleness is what keeps him cautious even in the best of times for SaaS and in this interview he shares some of his reservations about valuations, market saturation, the increasing competition, making the economics work and others. Listen on to hear: How worrisome is the market saturation in SaaS How other companies are dealing with that issue How to become recession proof Rory O'Driscoll is one of many excellent speakers we will host at SaaStock19 in Dublin this October alongside Claire Hughes Johnson, COO, Stripe, Leela Srinivasan, CMO, Survey Monkey, Kathryn Petralia, COO, Kabbage, and Girish Mathrubootham, CEO, Freshworks.

One of the last sessions at SaaStock18 was a bonus chat that brought a double dose of Canadian accents - April Dunford, the world's foremost expert on positioning sat for a conversation with Mark Organ, CEO and founder of Influitive. Even though they spoke at 4;20 on the day weed was legalised in Toronto, the topic they covered on the day was slightly different - category creation. On this week's episode we are bringing you their entire chat. Category creation had been coming up again and again during the two days of the conference. It's something that Mark, who has started 7 companies in his career, two of which category creators, is all too familiar with. His first one was Eloqua, which he founded 20 years ago and the second is his current company, Influitive, which he started 8 years ago. In their conversation, April and Mark talk about the origin story of each, to what extend Mark realized he was creating categories at the time, how he sold the idea to funders and customers, and many other. Both agree just how difficult category creation is and why you need to be built for the ordeal it would take. Mark and April also touch on the subject of the future of marketing and where the industry as a whole is going. Both Mark and April will be returning to Dublin, for SaaStock19. There, they will be joined by SaaS thought leaders such as Claire Hughes Johnson, COO, Stripe, Leela Srinivasan, CMO, Survey Monkey, Kathryn Petralia, COO, Kabbage, and Girish Mathrubootham, CEO, Freshworks.

In London, David M. Brear, Simon Taylor, and Sarah Kocianski were our hosts, joined by: Marieke Flament, European Managing Director and CMO of Circle, Simon Vans-Colina, Engineer at Monzo, and Daniel Hegarty, CEO of Habito. Over in Atlanta, Sam Maule and Doug Bobenhouse are joined by three pairs of guests: Rob Frohwein, CEO of Kabbage and Shannon Johnson, Group President of Financial Institutions at Cardlytics; next up was Kathryn Petralia, COO and Co-Founder of Kabbage, and Andrew Morris, Chief Content Officer at Money20/20; rounding out the show we had Howard Bush, Principal on Industry Experiences and Banking and Capital Markets Lead at Microsoft and Ginger Schmeltzer, Owner and Principal at GDS Advisors, LLC. Coming on to incredible music and an epic trailer we kick things off with insight into challenger banks. The UK’s digital banks may be profitable sooner than you think Monzo, Starling and Tandem all expect to have hit profitability by 2020 or sooner. The panel examines if Monzo can hit profitability so soon given losses quadrupling recently, Starling's profitability from new revenue streams like business bank accounts and marketplace partnerships, and Tandem acquiring 250K customers since the start of 2018. Next up Starling Bank ditching the purple for a new set of cards, cards for the bank's consumer accounts will be teal, while its business accounts will be turning navy blue. And all cards are portait. Just by like we have Megan Caywood of Starling fame in the audience to show it off. We move on to Snapchat shutting down Snapcash and giving the space over to Venmo. Snapchat will abandon the peer-to-peer payment space on August 30th. The service was powered by Square Cash. Snapcash gave Snapchat a way to get users to connect payment methods to the app, which were vital to the company’s aim to become a commerce platforms where you can shop without leaving the app. Launched in 2014, ahead of Venmo and Zelle but has ultimately lost customers to both companies. And finally the London team takes a look at what happened to celeb-endorsed cryptocurrencies. Heading over to Atlanta Doug and Sam kick things off with Rob Frohwein and Shannon Johnson on Uber and Venmo partnering to deliver a new payment experience. The four discuss Uber and Venmo are partnering to deliver a seamless new payment experience available with Uber and Uber Eats. More than 6M payments on Venmo mentioned “Uber” in their description over the past year, how big a deal the partnership is, how important it is that Venmo is offering bank-like solutions without being a bank, and Venmo's security. Next up, Kathry Petralia and Andrew Morries walk on stage to a great deal of applause, to discuss Facebook Google and others uniting to let customers transfer data between apps. They take a look at whether this is a bonus for start ups, what it means for privacy and data security and why Apple is conspicuously absent from this initiative. Howard Bush and Ginger Schemltzer are on stage next to discuss VISA MoneyGram and Visa Team preparing to deliver real-time global P2P, whether it's a digital and mobile payment option targeting milennials, if cash is still king, why the plan is starting with Mexico and the Philippines and where they'll go next. And finally the panel takes a look at a woman driving through the streets of South Korea and leaving $14,000 worth of cash in her wake.

What would you guess is the percentage of small business owners who hope that one day their children will follow in their footsteps? For all the headaches that ownership brings, a surprising 84% of the more than 1,000 small business owners who responded to a recent survey said they’d wish the blessings and the curses of entrepreneurship upon their kids. Kathryn Petralia, president of Atlanta-based Kabbage – the global financial services and technology company that conducted the survey, tells host and reputation coach Dean Rotbart that in the eyes of survey respondents, nothing defines the American Dream better than being your own boss and owning your own business.  Hear all the fascinating results from the Kabbage small business survey this week on Monday Morning Radio.

This episode of Payments on Fire covers two topics - payments in Atlanta and the essential challenge of online authentication and identity. May in Atlanta - Fintech South and Glenbrook Payments Boot Camp Everyone in the payments industry knows that Atlanta is a hotbed of activity. Coming shortly to Atlanta are two fintech-focused events that will add to the goings-on. The Fintech South conference takes place on May 7 and 8. With great speakers - and great sponsors like Glenbrook and the Technology Association of Georgia - the conference describes itself as “FinTech South 2018 is a global exchange of insights, innovations and trends fueling tomorrow's financial tech industry. “Attracting international companies and speakers across multiple industries, FinTech South is an opportunity to engage with 400 FinTech companies employing more than 130K employees globally, generating $72B in revenues, and processing over 118B transactions annually.” Speakers include: Kathryn Petralia, President and Co-founder of Kabbage Barry McCarthy, EVP of Network and Security Solutions at First Data Nuno Sebastiao, founder and CEO of Feedzai, who is also a past guest on Payments on Fire. Right after the conference ends, Glenbrook will host our Payments Boot Camp on May 9 and 10. Both events draw will attendees from all over North America. So if you want to expand your network, hear the latest at the conference and/or get smart about how payments work, come to Atlanta. Authentication, Biometrics, and Banking Authentication online remains one of the most challenging aspects of life online. Given the complete availability of personal data, account takeover has never been easier for the hackers. Knowledge-based authentication (KBA) asks softball questions like “what was your father’s middle name?” Easy stuff to find online. User IDs and passwords are even easier to find. We have a problem. Strengthening the connection between an accountholder’s true identity - perhaps proven by a drivers license or passport - and the credentials that the user presents online is necessary and the topic of this Payments on Fire episode. George speaks with Andrew Gowasack, CEO and co-founder, of TrustStamp, an identity verification company using AI and facial biometrics to create a strong, unique digital credential. For a few use cases, TrustStamp also employs a blockchain-based database. Andrew knows all about the Technology Association of Atlanta, too. So, take a listen and geek out in this conversation about authentication, biometrics, and how to answer the online conundrums of “who are you?” and “do I trust you?”                    

Karl Ulrich does a great job of summarizing what Kabbage, founded by Kathryn Petralia, does, after several minutes of intense conversation around APRs and credit lines: “I can get a reasonable amount of money in ten minutes, at not-onerous interest rates, with you guys doing the work of filling out the forms based on access to my financial records.” Here’s how Kathryn puts it: “Kabbage is a data and technology platform, enables real-time lending just to small businesses. We do this both directly in the US, and deployed over $4 billion to 130,000 small businesses in the US, and we also operate internationally, through partnerships with large institutions that licensed our technology to do the same thing abroad. We partner with big banks like Santander, ING, and Deutsche Bank. And our customers are able to, using our automated platform, get through the entire application process for a small business loan in less than ten minutes, and actually in many cases have funds in their accounts.” Listen to their half hour conversation for a deep dive into small business lending and how Fin Tech—and especially Kabbage—are changing how it happens. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Kathryn Petralia is the President and Co-Founder of Kabbage. A financial services data and technology platform that provides an automated application process for small business loans. In this episode, Kathryn admits that she never saw herself as an entrepreneur, but always pursued jobs that sparked her interest, which happened to be start-ups. From crowdfunding to angel investors, Kathryn advises on how to prove your business’s worth by being committed to actually doing the work you set out to do. She also highlights how the internet is the great equalizer. In the case of Kabbage, this distinction removes gender, ethnicity and other cultural barriers from the loan application process which levels the playing field. She is giving small business a greater opportunity to pursue their interests to make a difference. You can follow Kathryn and the Kabbage team at @kabbageinc Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.

I love Kabbage (https://www.kabbage.com), the incredibly popular small business lending company based out of Atlanta. To be fair, I also love cabbage, a highly underrated vegetable in my opinion. One of the key reasons I love Kabbage, besides their outstanding product, is their founders. Both Rob Frohwein and Kathryn Petralia are inspiring leaders; both extremely funny, extremely bright, and extremely personable. I will be interviewing Kathryn (recognized by Forbes in 2017 as the 9th most powerful woman in finance) at a future date. I have to as Rob wouldn’t quit telling me how great she was during my interview with him. This little anecdote is a prime example of Rob’s character. He always looks to put others first, whether that be with his teams, his customers, or his partners. He is simply a nice guy. Our conversation is a masterclass in entrepreneurship, in what it takes to found a successful company, in how to build a strong company culture, and in how to maintain focus while still evolving the company’s products. This is Kabbage’s story… Special Guest: Rob Frohwein.

On this episode of Inspired Insider, you’ll hear a helpful lesson from entrepreneur and innovator Rob Frohwein about how they celebrate milestones at Kabbage. In the early days of Kabbage, Rob’s co-founder, Mark purchased champagne for each member of the seven-person team.
