Greeting Express Partners with ASD to Offer Directors Exclusive Discounts on LIFE Photo Books

Durham, NC — Greeting Express recently joined ASD – Answering Service for Directors’ Rewards Partnership Program to provide funeral professionals with savings on the company’s unique line of custom photo books. As an ASD Rewards Partner, Greeting Express will offer ASD clients exclusive discounts on the company’s LIFE Book Program licensing fee, which provide families with a distinct and lasting memorial of their departed loved one. As a leading printer of hard cover photo books, Greeting Express specializes in high-quality personalized products that commemorate significant life events. Led by Anthony DeMarco, Director of Sales, the company began offering the LIFE Book Program to funeral professionals after DeMarco lost his father in late 2010.

“My goal was to create a product of superior quality that would be a highly valued tangible keepsake while inexpensive at the same time.” DeMarco said.

Families can customize their loved one’s LIFE Photo Books with the photos, captions, font, and style of their choosing and include funeral items such as an obituary or mass card. The final product is a stunning, enduring memorial that families will appreciate for years to come and funeral attendees will never forget.

LIFE Photo Books can provide comfort to families for many generations, but require only a few minutes to customize with Greeting Express’ unique creation tool. The user-friendly program was designed with simplicity to meet the time sensitive demands of the funeral profession. Greeting Express offers a next day delivery option to guarantee that directors receive the book in time for the funeral service. The LIFE Photo Books are a lasting way to memorialize a loved one, and starting at $20 for a single book, they are also extremely affordable and less expensive than many floral sprays.

Working with 25 percent of the nation’s funeral homes, ASD – Answering Service for Directors has been providing professional and compassionate call support to funeral homes since 1972. Greeting Express joins ASD’s Rewards Partnership Program, which brings exclusive benefits to funeral professionals who require services or products from one of ASD’s highly regarded Rewards Partners.

“We feel extremely honored to be a part of an exclusive group with such an amazing and reputable company.” DeMarco said.

ASD clients will receive an attractive discounted rate on the initial licensing fee associated with the LIFE Book Program ordered through Greeting Express. Both ASD and Greeting Express are enthusiastic about working with one another to ensure that funeral professionals have more ways to save.
