Dear Jake,

Welcome back to Johnson Consulting Group's company Enewsletter providing updates and information to the funeral professional. We hope that you will find the content meaningful as Johnson Consulting continues to grow and enhance its services! As always if there is anything that you feel Johnson Consulting can do for you, please feel free to call me personally to discuss opportunities. May the holidays be pleasant for you and a happy new year!

Short Survey

As with every newsletter, we like to put together a short survey and then anonymously share it in our next newsletter. (Follow this link to take this survey...Customer Satisfaction & Incentive Survey)

Results From Last Survey

In the last company newsletter, we asked the readers for their input on various questions regarding training and development. Of those who responded 83% said that they regularly participate in a training and development program. 55% said that they have 1 to 3 training programs they utilize in a year while the other 45% said they conduct 4 or more different training programs. Another question asked was whether the more preferred training method was in person or online through the web. 77% of those respondents indicated that live or in-person training sessions were preferred. Interestingly enough though, 90% of the respondents said they would be willing to utilize online training and development. Also interesting was that 67% of the respondents said they would take the online training regardless of whether they were to receive continuing education credits to do so. As it relates to the time in the program, most were agreeable to sitting through a 1 to 2 hours session, but no longer. I find these results interesting as training becomes more and more of importance in funeral businesses. Our business is changing all the time and the existence of continual improvement on our service delivery at all levels of the funeral process is critical. I hope you will glean valuable input to this data so that you can better your programs as well. Keep in mind that Johnson Consulting offers training programs for virtually every aspect of the funeral process. You can research this library by clicking here.

Thinking of Selling your Business?

Douglas O. Meyer (Law Office of Douglas O. Meyer Woodland Hills, CA) The last several years were a tough time to try to sell a funeral home. Values were depressed and then the credit market collapsed, so would-be buyers couldn't obtain financing for a purchase. Now, however, I'm seeing more acquisition activity. For those of you thinking of selling, I have the following suggestions and observations... (Click here to view this article in it's entirety)

A Wake-Up Call: Are You a Party Planner or a Creator of Meaningful Funeral Experiences?

Alan D. Wolfelt, Ph.D. (Center for Loss & Life Transition) www.centerforloss.com Perhaps it is time for a "wake-up call!" There is an undeniable truth that more and more people are saying things like: "When I die, just get rid of me...no muss, no fuss. Maybe you can throw a party, but I sure don't want a funeral!" I believe it is time for those of you committed to the future of funeral service to firmly choose your course- or the relentless drift of events will make decisions for you. How many families have walked through your doors in recent years requesting not a funeral, but a "celebration" or a "party?" Quite a few, if the conversations I regularly have with my friends in funeral service are any indication. Of even more concern, do you think your helping role is to create one of these two options for families? While it is tempting to think your job is to create a celebration or a party when that is what is being requested, I would urge all of us to pause for a moment and consider what's best for families served.

Cemetery Succession and Exit Planning

Tom Johnson (Chairman) Recently, Tom Johnson was asked to "weigh-in" on the below trends Cremation - I think everyone will agree that the cremation rate will continue to increase. But I also think the number of cremations with some sort of service will also increase. That's good news! Many funeral directors around the country are getting better each day in the handling of a cremation family. All funeral directors who handle cremations need to continually improve in this area. Most suppliers and consultants in this business are also willing to assist. (Click here to view this article in its entirety)

Strategic Planning: From your budget to your facilities to your finances-Get your year off to the right start

Tom Johnson & Jake Johnson (Chairman & President) The subject of this article is most interesting for a couple of reasons; one, most funeral directors do little strategic planning and, two, even less prepare an annual budget. I have spoke about this subject for many years but see little progress. The typical modus operandi for most independent operations is to keep things just the way they are. It's worked in the past to some degree. However, it probably will not work in the future. (Click here to view this article in its entirety)

Cemetery Succession and Exit Planning

Tom Johnson (Chairman) Recently, Tom Johnson was asked to "weigh-in" on succession planning at cemeteries. 1. Why is exit planning for cemetery owners important? Succession planning for cemetery owners may be more important than any other type of business for on simple reason; you have a depleting resource. Once a cemetery is full there is nothing to transfer or sell. The only remaining issue is the liability of maintaining the property into perpetuity. Hence the importance of looking at your cemetery and understanding the current and future inventory needs. A Masterplan is essential for this reason.

Testimonials

"We would like you both to know that we truly appreciate your help and assistance with the sale of our funeral home. We came to the little town of Manton when I was 21, fresh out of college and married for only a few weeks. We owned the funeral home for almost 43 years so parting with the business was a very big deal to us. We knew that a funeral director in the area would probably buy the funeral home. We consider all the neighboring funeral homes and funeral directors to be friends and colleagues and not competitors. We didn't want the sale of our business to jeopardize this friendship in any way and Dale did an excellent job of dealing will all interested funeral directors in a professional and friendly way. He was persistent but not demanding and seemed to work tirelessly through may disappointments and setbacks. We would recommend Dale and Johnson Consulting 100% and have told several other funeral directors this when asked how our sale went. Every day we are realizing new possibilities that being not tied down to the phone and responsibilities of a job are offering us. Thank you for your friendship and help to us." - Fred & Elaine Hall, Manton, MI "Please accept this expression of my most sincere appreciation to you and your fine staff for the many hours expended on our behalf involving the sale of our 87 year old family firm, Don Grantham Funeral Home. As a funeral home owner and director my experience has obviously been limited to the operation of our business. It was comforting to know that we entrusted the marketing of our business to an organization that exhibited to us that they cared as much as we did about locating the right purchaser for our business. In the midst of accumulating information, evaluations, screening qualified potential buyers, to compiling all necessary data and most important of all maintaining our desire to locate the right fit for our particular situation, your organization was outstanding in its professionalism our industry strives to achieve. Over the course of our association I never had an unanswered phone call, a question that went unresolved, prompt and prepared responses and a positive, calming attitude that shifted the enormous demands from me to your firm's expertise. Our decision to entrust Johnson Consulting Co. with the sale of our business was by far the best decision we made. I have nothing but the highest admiration and esteem for the services extended to our family by your organization. Thanks for making a "hard decision, easy." - Jim Grantham, Duncan, OK "When my husband, William Ready, died in 2000 I inherited 2/3 of Ready Funeral Services, Inc. and my daughter, Michele, 1/3. The business consisted of three funeral homes and a crematorium. Two years later I built a new state of the art crematorium. Three years ago Michele came to me and said she would like to purchase my shares. I contacted the Johnson Group through the assistance of a good friend, and I was put in touch with Bill Cutter whom I communicated with on a weekly basis by e-mail or telephone. By May of this year Bill had a complete proposal prepared ready to go to market. The end of the story is that my daughter now owns the business and this never would of happened without the hard work of Bill Cutter and the Johnson group. Anyone who would like to talk to me concerning the Johnson group I would be most happy to accommodate." - Jane Ready, Burlington, VT "In January 2010, Fares J. Radel Funeral Homes needed to refinance our funeral home in Cincinnati. The loan amount was over $1.5 million and I found in dealing with traditional banks, they do not fully understand the ebbs and tides of funeral home cash flow. After repeated meetings with many large and small banks we turned to Johnson Consulting, a specialist in funeral home financing and consulting. I contacted Kelly Herdt and he began a search for capitol. Kelly "shopped" banks, credit unions and venture captial groups. In 2010, our country was in a very harsh economic environment (needless to say), Kelly found us financing to refinance the deal. It is nice to deal with people such as Johnson Consulting and their wonderful staff, who are familiar with funeral home owner's needs. Again, thank you for everything." - Fares J. Radel, Cincinnati, OH "Just wanted to let you know what a positive experience it was to have Greg and Al out to St. Louis last week. Greg and Al obviously know their stuff and did a great job explaining to our staff and managers and owners what exactly they were doing there and more importantly sometimes, what they WEREN'T doing there. I know Oliver and I both are excited to move forward in so many aspects and look forward to our next steps. I'm glad we got started early in the year so that we can move forward in 2011 with a fresh start. Thanks again!" - Justin King of Heartland Pet Cremation, St. Louis, MO "Perhaps the most valuable lesson I learned through my journey with JCG is knowledge is important and should be gathered from as many sources as possible and on a continuous basis but timing is king. We were fortunate our relationship with JCG started many years before we seriously considered a sale. Having a business valuation performed by professionals, and unencumbered by circumstances that might dictate a quick sale allowed us the luxury to evaluate and become comfortable with every detail of the valuation and our business. Accordingly, we were able to improve business operation and its value." - Barry Murphy, Oakton, VA

Unless you are marooned on an island somewhere (or are an SEC football fan), Canada, mexico, india, you are probably aware that one of the most talked about consequences of the mid-term congressional elections is that Congress may extend the so-called "Bush Tax Cuts."

Your company's reputation as an industry leader in Funeral Service Consultation is more than well deserved. From the very first contact, your staff members, Mike Bishoff and Frank Puccio put me at ease and made the entire process as painless as possible. Regarding record-keeping and sales analysis, they certainly helped me gather and provide the myriad of information required.

Her financial acumen, in my opinion, has no equal. Since May when Cyndi came on site, the morale of our entire work force has changed 180 degrees. She had an insurmountable task in this respect alone and won the accolades of the employees in short order. She has been tireless in building a good rapport with customers and mending broken bridges from the past, Lorazepam For Sale. This has been astonishing for everyone around here. Rarely a day goes by that we do not receive a compliment on the cemetery, which has not happened in over fifteen years. I have every confidence that Cyndi will turn sales around. She has laid the base for a good foundation. It is inevitable that good things will follow. I would like to thank you for your willingness to help me. I really cannot believe what Cyndi has been able to accomplish in just five and on half months. She is the best thing that ever happened to me and to Restland." - Mark Lehnert of Restland Memorial Parks, Inc., Monroeville, PA

"When it came time for me to retire and to sell my late husband's and my funeral business, I turned to Johnson Consulting Group to analyze its value. Their knowledge and expertise produced a well considered valuation report. Dave Hirt and mike Bischoff were generous with their time to make sure I understood how Johnson Consulting Group analyzed the value of the business and to advise me concerning how to prepare the business for sale. Because of my confidence in their valuation services, I chose to use Johnson Consulting Group to market my funeral business. They were with me every step of the way to facilitate the due diligence process and worked well with my accountant, attorney and advisors. In the end, Johnson Consulting Group found a buyer for our business that will carry on the values and traditions that my husband and I built over our lifetimes." - Dr. Julia Marshall of Marshall's Funeral Homes, Inc., Washington DC
