It’s obvious. It’s everywhere. And, yes, it’s sometimes rude. People who own Smartphones constantly pull them out of their pockets to send text messages, check email, read the news, and catch up with their family and friends on social media…even ignoring the family and friends who are there in front of them (I am totally guilty of this). In places where strangers are sitting and waiting, like doctors’ offices and airport terminals, the Smartphone viewing reflex prevails where traditional reading materials like newspapers, books, and magazines once reigned as the media of choice.

We head to the great white north, home of superior Maple Syrup your favorite comedians, politeness, and unfortunately Justin Bieber and Nickelback. We hop across the border to Niagara to talk about the importance of Facebook ads and how they can give you leverage in your market! Thank you to Funeral Plans Canada for hosting us!

Ryan is EXPOSED as a terrible (.....) in FUNERAL hustle 015! Part 2 of our Boston NFDA recap we swing by the Pierce Chemical booth for a GOLDEN giveaway, Homesteaders and Disrupt Media join forces and drop knowledge on traditional and digital marketing.

It’s just business. No travel, no airports, no Uber rides, just the daily grind. On this episode of FUNERAL hustle follow Ryan through a week at DISRUPT Media’s HQ. See the meetings, hear the conversations. This is our most transparent and intimate episode; a real look at how DISRUPT functions, the team meetings, one-on-ones, client success stories and Ryan shares about how he thinks and processes death. No filters, no sugarcoating, no gloves – this is just business.

Social media has taken every industry and profession by storm. But it’s not like it came quietly, we have been talking about it for years. Everyone saw it coming, but no one in the death care space was prepared.

How much does Facebook advertising cost? This is a common question for funeral homes who are just getting started with it. And unfortunately, there really is no cookie cutter, one-size-fits-all answer. But what we do know is Facebook advertising is massively under priced.

Finding content for your funeral home's Facebook page can be tough. We have you covered! We have created a Father's Day video post that is perfect for your funeral home's Facebook Page.

One of the biggest misconceptions surrounding Facebook in the funeral profession is this crazy idea that you can schedule your entire year of Facebook content in just 5 minutes and that it will produce results that are valuable. NOT GOING TO HAPPEN!
