Business Profile: Peoples State Bank

Peoples State Bank is a $1.5 billion financial institution and community bank founded in 1962, serving north, central, and southeast Wisconsin from twelve full-service banking locations.

"At Peoples, you'll experience a different type of bank, one staffed by friends and neighbors of your community who take the time to listen and help you find the best financial products and services to move you ahead," said Amber Gober, Branch Manager III AVP with Peoples State Bank. "Peoples offers business banking, treasury management, retail and mortgage services, and more!"

Gober volunteers as both an Ambassador for the Greater Wausau Chamber of Commerce and a member of the Chamber's Women's Leadership Conference planning committee.

"We're not only a financial partner, Peoples State Bank gives back time, talent, and over a quarter of a million dollars each year to local community needs," said Gober.

The staff at Peoples State Bank understands that everyone who walks through the door has a story and it’s always enjoyable getting to know them.

"Some visit us daily, while others stop by only a few times a year," said Gober. "Either way, we truly value the conversations we have—whether it’s learning about their families and lives or just sharing a friendly moment."

"While our goal is always to assist with their financial needs, what really matters is building those personal connections and making people feel welcome and understood," said Gober.

The staff at Peoples State Bank loves finding an excuse to have fun. This may manifest itself in dressing up in fancy hats to celebrate the Kentucky Derby or hosting games in the office to celebrate the Summer or Winter Olympics.

"Some of the videos that different department teams have created for synchronized chair spinning and dancing certainly stand out!" said Gober.

Peoples employees love being a part of the communities they serve. Many at the bank enjoy volunteering in the community, giving back to the communities that do so much to support them.
