The following post is a reply from Randy McCormick addressing the question "the future of the Funeral Industry and whether or not the Independent Funeral home will survive" asked by member and guest blogger Kathy Jackson. Kathy asked this question to receive feedback she might be able to use in her doctorate thesis. Randy concentrates more on the future of the Independent Funeral home. I hope that you will read what Randy has written. He has provided us with great futuristic thoughts of how Independent Funeral homes must progress to be able to compete with Corporate firms.
Independent funeral homes are as much a part of the ‘future of the profession’ as they have been the ‘backbone of the profession’ in the past.
By: Randy McCormick
Yes Kathy, the independent funeral home will survive in the future and here are a few loosely organized thoughts that are strictly Randy’s ramblings. An apology for the grammar, tense shifts and crappy sentence structure, but it is late and my bed calls. Yes the Independent funeral home will survive, but not in the traditional form we have come to recognize in the past. The independent funeral home of the future will need to loosen the laces of the tight leather Oxfords they have suffered over the past twenty years and slip on a soft crepe sole (perish the thought) that is more comfortable. Today’s consumer arrives at the door in designer sneakers and considers jeans a dressy option. The independent funeral home that is wise enough to embrace the changes in small ways will survive. I don’t mean to dress casually in the workplace, but try more relaxed staff photos in the foyer or advertisements. Let the public see them at play, doing hobbies or sports on a staff page on the website. Loosen the tight Oxfords and breathe. The independent funeral home of the future will need to leave itself open to the possibilities of on-line arrangements. Yes – full on-line arrangements with NO interaction. Believe it or not, we do it now and there are those who want it no other way. It feels cold and heartless to some of our directors, but we are here to serve everyone … without prejudice. The independent funeral home of the future will need to have ten price lists for cremation. The myriad choices will make them comfortable with their cremation choice, rather than feel guilty they are not being more traditional. We have run six cremation prices lists for the past ten years and you would not believe how well they are received. It is high time we added the other four starting with a few green options. The independent funeral home of the future will have to provide good daycare on site to its staff. We considered this option five years ago and should have made the leap of faith then. Child care is so expensive and what better to make you stand apart in the community than a staff daycare on site where lunch hour takes on a brand new meaning for a working parent. Families worrying about youngsters at a service could be offered the care facility for free and I know the word of mouth advertising that would garner. The independent funeral home of the future will have to have a contingency plan in place for disaster service for those needing our help. Again on-line arrangements and two way web cam interaction in case of pandemic worries.The independent funeral home of the future will have to get real with profit margins or risk government intervention and subsequent regulations. The high prices charged by some of the corporate funeral homes are simply laying out the red carpet for regulation, especially when independent facilities are providing the same service for less money. All it will take is a pandemic situation with government health boards calling the shots for this profession to be forever changed. The independent funeral home of the future will have to be cognisant that the funeral business is no longer sacred. The internet has opened all to the public. www.seemerot.com and some of the sites providing autopsies and narrated embalming seminars are already part of the public domain. The independent funeral home of the future will have to be fierce and dedicated in its defence of family service. It will be set upon on all sides by the corporate giant, but the public will refuse to see that as a negative thing. If they did, Walmart, Auto Malls and Microsoft would be in trouble. Are they? The independent funeral home of the future will have to leave itself open the possibilities of its chapel being requested for weddings and outside seminars. Chapels need to be planned from the inception as multi-purpose facilities with their doors open to the public = even on weekends. How will this happen – we are going to have to hire an events manager rather than try doing it ourselves. But – just like a hotel concierge, that person’s entire job will be to market and to make it work – not wash cars and do transfers on the side.The independent funeral home of the future will not own expensive vehicles but will realize that there are dozens of limo companies out there that service graduate and wedding clientele every day. Perhaps part of the ‘concierge’ duties to coordinate … The independent funeral home of the future will work from a product book or online catalogue rather than offer a handful of caskets that they have decided that the public will buy. Funeral home showroom stock is usually comprised of what the casket salesman convinces the owner is on sale - if it doesn’t sell – or gets shop worn – discount it and eat the loss … All thinking of the past. Convert the space to something useable, get out the catalogues, and get selling. You will be offering ten times the selection and maybe even sell that bronze more often now that you are showing a dozen or so choices. The independent funeral home of the future will offer at least two computer stations for friends and relatives to leave condolence messages. Every home has two or three. Why shouldn’t an independent funeral home have a couple in the entry area? The independent funeral home of the future will record well wishers if they choose to step in front of a stationery camera, discreetly placed at the reception to speak condolences or a tearful – or happy – memory. It’s not rocket science; this stuff is so easy these days. Web casting will happen as an everyday occurrence and will be expected – no, taken for granted by everyone. The independent funeral home of the future will supplement its stock of memorial books with U-Build-It choices of plank pages, photo pockets and receptacles for memorabilia storage. Independent funeral homes can do these things without head office approval. Besides, the option can be greened up with recycled paper lets you look like the greenest business in town.Kathy. I feel that, contained within the above brief points, are just a very few of the ideas that Independent Funeral Homes will adopt that will insure their survival. As I said, the independent funeral home doesn’t have to await head office approval to experiment with viable local options and that facilitate survival. The independent funeral homes are as much a part of the ‘future of the profession’ as they have been the ‘backbone of the profession’ in the past.

He recently exhibited at the Global Green Expo in Jersey City, N.J., showcasing environmentally friendly coffins and green burial options directly to consumers. (The Green Funeral Service Desk Reference includes an article about Prout's experiences at the show.) A true environmentalist, Prout installed a solar roof at his funeral home a few years ago, and thrives on making money and finding opportunities in a market that many other funeral service professionals ignore. Prout also works closely with green cemeteries in his area.

Many people these days are looking for hearses for sale. Many people in the market for hearses for sale enjoy the macabre nature of these funeral cars and the looks they get when they go down the street. But how many people buying hearses for sale know much about these unique vehicles? Here are some surprising and not-so-surprising facts about hearses and their role in our society
• The first motorized hearse in the United States was used on January 15, 1909. It was for a funeral procession in Chicago. The funeral director that first used this hearse was H.D. Ludlow. There were reports of a similar vehicle used in Paris in 1907, though. • Until 1909, hearses were typically horse-drawn carriages that carried the deceased. • Many early hearses were also ambulances. You may still see these in smaller towns and cities. • In the United States, Lincolns and Cadillacs are the most common bases for hearses. In Europe, companies typically use Jaguar, Mercedes-Benz and Volvo for hearse bases. • Hearse clubs abound across the United States and other nations across the world. Hearse enthusiasts gather at annual events to share their fondness for these cars. • The proper term for a hearse in the funeral industry is “funeral coach.” This term has a more appealing connotation to it than “hearse.”
Now that you know some of these facts, you might be even more interested in hearses for sale. Check one out today! You never know when it’s going to be your turn to take a ride in the back of one.

MyWonderfulLife.com, the new innovative web site for funeral planning, was founded in 2008 by Sue Kruskopf and Nancy Bush. Kruskopf is chief creative officer of Minneapolis-based Kruskopf Coontz, while Bush is an account executive with ClearChannel Radio in Minneapolis.
I received this post in an email this morning. I am anxious to read your comments. Has anyone already done things like this through the funeral home you work for? - Ryan
After attending a string of “typical” funerals (complete with droning organ music and stale sandwiches), Kruskopf saw a need for something different in the funeral industry. As a fun-loving person, she couldn’t imagine celebrating her life “in a 1960’s funeral home with hymnal Muzak playing softly in the background.” Nope, hers would be a party in a great restaurant with good food and wine – two of her favorite things.
A Baby Boomer herself, Kruskopf figured that the rest of her generation would feel the same. She was right. Traditional funerals are becoming a thing of the past, and Baby Boomers are leading the charge to find new ways to celebrate their life, death, and leave a legacy. This internet-savvy bunch wants as much control in their death as they did in their life.
The numbers are there too. According to the National Funeral Directors Association, 62 percent of Baby Boomers want “personalized funerals” and 71 percent do not want a “traditional funeral.” Even more interesting, 14 percent requested “a party in my honor.”According to the National Center for Health Statistics, 2.3 million people die every year, and by 2040 that number is expected to double. This means more of a demand for funerals, and a demand for more funeral options—all of which can be planned through MyWonderfulLife.comNancy Bush, who is Kruskopf’s close friend, had also experienced far too many funerals and knew what a burden planning a funeral can be. But the tipping point came when her husband, John, was diagnosed with cancer in 2005. He lived for 10 months before succumbing to the disease in 2006 at age 53.
Even though an illness can give a person time to think about funeral plans, this was not the case with John. He felt that by “going there,” he would be giving up. There was no web site like MyWonderfulLife.com, which Nancy felt would have made it easier for him to express personal wishes, and to leave letters and memories for his family.
After John’s death, Nancy found that she and her family were at the mercy of the traditional funeral home and what they had to offer. With the help of many friends, a memorable celebration was held that embodied John’s life. From this experience, the idea of MyWonderfulLife.com was brought to life.
MyWonderfulLife.com was created by Kruskopf Coontz in conjunction with Clockwork, a web development firm.
Competition In The Funeral Industry Just Got Stronger: Funeral Consultant Heppell Announces First Ever Online Program To Differentiate Funeral Homes and Cemeteries From Their Competition
Competitors in the funeral industry just got their wake-up call. Robin Heppell, CFSP, has created a four step process for funeral industry firms to separate themselves from their competition. Funeral Manager Secrets
Victoria, BC – Robin Heppell has officially put funeral competitors on notice: Price Discounters (and Price Matching Firms) will lose calls to Full Service Funeral Homes and Cemeteries as they will be able to easily differentiate themselves from their competition after completing the Funeral Manager Secrets “Strategic Thinking” program. As Robin Heppell added, “The ‘Strategic Thinking’ program will walk funeral home and cemetery managers step by step through the strategic analysis process and the program ends with the ‘Differentiate and Prosper’ module. Many firms know their strong points, but sometimes have a hard time crystallizing their strengths and conveying that message when called upon by price-sensitive consumers.”This course will also assist in expanding the “business mindset” of funeral professionals by assisting them with identifying: • What social trends and demographic issues they will have to face in the future• Who are going to be their new competitors, such as hotels, restaurants, golf courses, and how to stay ahead of them• What are their strengths and opportunities that they can capitalize on in their marketTodd Van Beck on having a Business Mindset for Funeral Service, “How simple this profession was forty years ago and twenty years ago and how it has moved so rapidly to a level of searching, complications, as society has changed, the value system has changed, and its been kind of rapid fire. So the mindset of the funeral director – it’s being begged to move from a caregiver, ministerial model to balance this out with business thinking.” Robin Heppell is a fourth generation funeral director, with over 20 year’s experience in a highly competitive market. He is a faculty member of the Canadian College of Funeral Service, a regular contributor to Mortuary Management and the Canadian Funeral News, and frequent presenter at regional and national conventions. In the past six weeks, Heppell hosted an interview series titled, Having a Business Mindset for Funeral Service, where he interviewed funeral professionals, Nancy Lohman, Nevin Mann, and Brad Scott; funeral consultants, Todd Van Beck, Mike Kubasak, and Bill Bischoff; and business professors, Dr. Kevin Hindle and Dr. Brent Mainprize. Over 380 funeral professionals registered for this informative series. To take the first step in differentiating your firm from your competition and to receive immediate access to the recorded interviews, go to Funeral Manager Secrets now.
Summer for the funeral industry often means a slow down in business. When business is slow seeing employees just standing around can really get some owners in a panic. Why not take those employees standing around and put them to good use? Below I have put together a general Summer To-Do list that is sure to help them pass the down time usefully.
This list is a general list, look at your funeral home and make a list that is tailored to your needs. Most of the stuff that needs done, can be done be people who you already employ, saving you money on labor cost.
If you have already made a list like this, what where some of the things you included? Maybe one of your ideas could spark an ideas for someone else.

We've been dealing with SpartaCraft for a few years now and are very happy with them. They are wonderfully efficient with ordering and delivery. Very easy to set it all up and lot's of room for extra revenue. Our families have also appreciated the quality. We have a small display in our main foyer and have even gotten a few orders from people at wakes. I'd fully recommend their product and service.
I am extremely excited to announce that ConnectingDirectors.com will be exhibiting at the 2008 NFDA Convention in Orlando. This will be our first experience exhibiting at the national convention. We have secured booth #2169. I have included a few details about the booth.
What I know for sure:
A Few Possibilities:
Below is an example of the CD.com booth for the Ohio Convention:
I would like to limit the booth to only one table, providing more space for visitors to gather to listen and watch a walk through of the website and all of it's features.
I am open to any suggestions for the booth space. This is a great opportunity for CD.com and I want to make the most of it.
In an effort to cover some of the convention expenses CD.com is running an advertising special. If you would like information on our discounted rates please email me: ryan@connectingdirectors.com. (Advertisers on CD.com will also be listed and displayed in the booth during the convention)
