Busting the Myths of Local Advertising for Funeral Homes

How to Invest Your Dollars Wisely for Increased Sales

Napoleon Hill, author of “Think and Grow Rich” is quoted as saying, “Whatever the mind can conceive and believe, the mind can achieve.” But the truth is, many funeral homes can’t conceive advertising because they don’t believe it works for “their business.” That is a myth!

Advertising can work. It’s worked for Coca-Cola and GEICO. It can work for funeral homes too. This workshop will tell them how.

The first roadblock funeral homes face is “what to say.” It’s easy for furniture stores and restaurants to advertise, but writing ads based on “Death and the Funeral Process” is not easy.

If funeral homes intend to remain profitable and expand in this world of growing cremation percentages and shrinking margins, they need an advertising strategy faster than word-of-mouth.

This workshop reveals how advertising works best for funeral homes, what you can say, and tips on Radio, TV/Cable, Internet, Outdoor, and Facebook.

Registration is closed for the October Post and Boost webinar presented by Bill A Johnston.

Continuing Education credits approved by the following states:  North Carolina; and also all states that accept certified CE providers of the American Academy of Funeral Service Practice.

Additional state approvals coming soon.

Learning Objectives

1. Local advertising can work for funeral homes

2. Word-of-mouth may be the best advertising, but it’s too slow if you intend to expand sales

3. Knowing there are Four Pillars in Effective Local Advertising

4. Understanding the role of TV/Cable, Radio, Outdoor, Newspaper, Google, and Facebook/Instagram

Program Outline

1. Advertising does work. Coca-Cola and GEICO prove it.

2. The role of death metrics and demographics in advertising

3. Four strategies to grow sales. Which one(s) should you do?

4. Reach: How many do you need to reach to grow?

5. Frequency: Change the way people think

6. Consistency: The Sales Funnel

7. Copy: What do you say and how do you say it?

8. Google is the Yellow Pages; Facebook is the Newspaper

9. Media quick hitters: TV/Cable, Radio, Outdoor, the Newspaper

Business Benefits

1. By knowing how advertising works, it will be easier to “believe” it can work for their funeral home.

2. The sales funnel will help operators visually understand the need to always be advertising

3. With the four pillars of effective local advertising, wasted ad dollars can identified and redirected

4. Not advertising has long-term consequences to the equity value of the business, especially in competitive markets.

5. The sales funnel will help operators understand the need to always be advertising

6. Be encouraged to discover an advertising strategy that can expand their sales.

January 2023

Here’s what we’ll cover in this month’s update:

  • Cremations are invading bottom lines. We have copy ideas to help.
  • Don’t fall for the new scam asking for credit card information.
  • Welcome to new customers across the country.
Post and Boost Logo

The Cremation Invasion

More of our funeral home customers are experiencing how cremation calls are invading their bottom line. 

How do you address this?

How do you keep your bottom line healthy? 

You can grow your call volume, raise your prices, or develop a comprehensive sales process that puts you in the position to manage and maximize every sales opportunity.

Is it selling or is it offering? 

Often during any sales process, sellers forget who is responsible for determining the overall cost of a funeral.

Yes, the funeral home sets the pricing, but it’s the customer who determines how much they are willing to spend. 

Key Thought: Offer products and services that lets customers decide for themselves how much they want to spend.

New topic for you to consider: “Traditional Cremations”

Have questions? Give Bill a call to discuss in detail: 336-516-9163

In his book, “How Facebook Works for Funeral Homes,” Bill outlines a list of proven topics that work for funeral homes. Schedule an appointment with Bill and get a FREE copy.

ALERT: Credit Card Scam

We’ve learned that there is a new credit card scam targeting businesses that advertise on Facebook.

Listen to this: A customer told us recently that someone had reached out to them with an urgent message stating that their credit card needed to be replaced to boost their advertising on Facebook because it was expired. All they had to do was click on the link provided to update their payment information.

Red flag, anyone?

At Post and Boost, we buy Facebook ads on behalf of our customers. To make it as easy as possible for you, we manage the Ad Account and if there were to be any issues with an expired payment account, Bill would be calling you directly.

Never click on a link that’s been provided to update your personal information.

If you see a suspicious email or text from someone claiming to be from Facebook, and you’re not sure if it’s legit, call us at Post and Boost and we’ll look at it together.

Welcome New Customers

We’re welcoming new customers in Alabama, Georgia, Illinois, Kansas, Minnesota, North Carolina, Philadelphia, and Wisconsin this month. What an abundant start to the new year!

We’re thankful for all our customer referrals. And especially, for all of those who participated in our “Refer A Friend, Support A Cause” campaign over the holiday season.

All the promised donations have been sent. And those who were referred received a free copy of our book, “How Facebook Works for Funeral Homes.”

Custom Holiday and New Year Posts

Our holiday posts for clients are often a hit!

Each funeral home celebrates the season in different ways. Let us know how we can highlight your unique way of bringing cheer to your local community. Some of our customers host an annual memorial service, a candlelit evening of remembrance, a toy drive – even a meal for Veterans and/or First Responders. We’re here to help support your engagement with a strategic plan on Facebook.

And as we think ahead toward the new year…

Are you offering FREE calendars to the community? Let us know! If you’re giving calendars away, we’re happy to create a custom post for you.

Differentiate Your Services

One of the ways you can stand out from other firms in the area is to highlight the services you offer that no one else does. One of our customers in the western part of North Carolina came to us with an idea on how to expand the Cremation topic.

If you have an on-site crematory, you may want to expand and edit your topics preference list.

Have questions? Give Bill a call to discuss in detail: 336-516-9163.

In his book, “How Facebook Works for Funeral Homes,” Bill outlines a list of proven topics that work for funeral homes.

Need New Photography?

How are you feeling about the pictures you’re seeing on your Facebook Page? If you think it’s about time to schedule a shoot for updated photography, chances are we’re thinking about it too.

Let’s get you on the schedule. We know the holidays are a busy time for everyone and staff members may be on vacation visiting family, but there may be a sweet spot in mid-January or early February that works for all! Figure out a day or two that works best for your team and reach out to our Post and Boost Photography Coordinator, Matthew Ayer.

EOY Thoughts on Facebook

If you’ve been following tech and financial news this year, you’ll know that Meta (Facebook) is reducing their staff in order to help improve their bottom line.

And you may think that has a drastic impact on active users on the Facebook platform (Instagram too), but rest assured, numbers continue to be robust; and it still represents the best, local advertising value in every market in the United States.

“Refer A Friend, Support A Cause” Campaign

“Refer A Friend, Support A Cause” is a new, annual holiday promotion for Post and Boost. If you refer a friend in the funeral home industry who you think might be interested in our service, we will make a $25 contribution to the cause of your choice.

You can refer up to four individuals, which means a $100 donation to the cause of your choice. To learn more, get in touch with Bill: 336-516-9163.

The absolute best way to get the information you need to consider whether this is the right opportunity for your funeral home’s advertising plan is to schedule an introductory appointment with Bill. We make it easy for every funeral home to have a Facebook strategy that rocks!
