Ready to Increase Revenue in 2022?

Let’s face it, after the past couple of years, you probably want to be on a vacation. Yes, you probably want to be on sunny shores, wearing a floral shirt while drinking out of a coconut. Actually, we really want that for you, but…

Before you do all that- you need to increase your revenue.

That’s where Parting Pro comes in.

​​Parting Pro users are converting more price shoppers, selling more merchandise, increasing efficiency with digital forms, and generating more positive reviews. To see how much they can help you, they’ve developed an ROI calculator so you can see for yourself what Parting Pro will do for your business.

Let’s go get that coconut!

“THE BIG GAME” COMMERCIALS ARE ALL ABOUT DEATHCARE

There’s a big event happening this Sunday and it’s always been known for its entertaining advertisements. Recently, commercials involving deathcare elements have made their way into the programming. I went ahead and compiled my list of the three best ones!

  1. This Iconic Doritos Spot

2. This Google Commercial (You can actually read a CD take on it HERE)

3. And of Course, BABY NUT!

As Joey Burrow sends the Rams season to the grave, I’ll be looking out for some more funeral commercials. WHO DEY!

COMIC OF THE WEEK

You can rebrand anything.

YOU OTTER BE PROUD

Let’s be honest, our profession gets a lot of negative press, so we’ve searched the internet to find stories of funeral things getting respect, and doing great things!
1) How this attorney became a ‘death doula’ to help terminally ill
2) Parting gift: End-of-life planning eases family burdens
