The GIF Filled Christmas Special | Friday Funeral Fast Wrap #15

One Week Until Christmas

The world has needed Christmas more than ever this year and finally… it’s here!  We are one week away from the merriest moment that reoccurs every 365 day. That’s right… It’s jolly time! I know a lot of events  have been canceled, so I’m officially declaring this the annual FFFW Christmas party. There’s gonna be games, good news, and a WHOLE lotta GIFS. So let’s kick off the weekend and the final week of Christmas celebrations!

TOP GIFTS FOR FUNERAL DIRECTORS

I know we’re a little bit late, but if you’re willing to pay for some overnight shipping, CD has some great gift ideas for you. CLICK HERE to read the whole article full of gift ideas for death-care workers. AND trust me, that article is fantastic, but there was one thing missing.

A Tesla hearse. 

This has been done before and it should be done some more. If my dead body is going for a final ride, it should go out in the most bougie, trendy, Elon Musk-y way possible. Heck, with their self-driving capabilities, you could catch up on some sleep while going to the graveside. What could go wrong??? Don’t wish small folks, ask Santa for the Cyber Hearse this year!

HOLIDAY TRIVIA

The Statue of Liberty was a Christmas gift from France to America and is considered one of the biggest gifts ever. But… how much does it weigh?

CRUSH SOCIAL MEDIA AS A FUNERAL HOME

(SPONSORED)

Funeral homes and any death-care business NEED a good social media presence. This isn’t always as easy as it seems. BUT… if you’re looking for an easy way to get some likes on your page, we have you covered!

Top 3 Things that are social media gold.

1) Babies. People love babies. They’re chunky, they’re small, and they just randomly stare at people a lot. That being said, if you see a picture of a baby on social media and you DON’T engage with it – you actually are a bad person. Like no joke. Well, kind of no joke.

2) Puppies. These are like babies with more fur and less questioning about its parents being “ready yet.” I like puppies, you like puppies, and we all like to LIKE puppies on social media.

3) Puppies and Babies. That’s right; it’s not rocket science. Babies do good, puppies do good, you combine them, and you get something simply amazing! This is like french fries dipped in a Wendy’s Frosty; it’s simply a combo that is almost too good to be true!

Now, these three types of content are fantastic, but if you want a social media strategy that REALLY works for you and your funeral home – you need to do a little more than that. You need DISRUPT Media.
