Policies you can cite

SaaS package count
One LP = one package. Multi-location dropdown = same package.
›
  • One website → one LP → one package, regardless of chapels/brands in the location dropdown.
  • Multiple websites → one package per website.
  • Reference example: V Todd Ferreria's site includes Nassau Funeral Home as a separately-branded dropdown entry — still one package because one LP.
SaaS tier: default Engage
Only 1–2 clients on Foundation today. Frame Engage as the standard.
›

Driver = SMS appetite. Engage layers SMS onto nurture, aftercare, NPS, and review generation. Tiers can mix across packages for clients with multiple LPs. "Almost all our clients are on Engage" is true and accurate.

Ad differentiation (competing locations)
2 approved versions per campaign. Defined as 10mi sm/mid · 5mi urban. Share openly.
›
  • 2 approved ad versions per Standard Preneed campaign (client approves both up front).
  • Competing-location definition: 2+ Fintra clients within 10mi (small/mid-market) or 5mi (urban).
  • Commitment: competing clients never run the same version concurrently. Fintra rotates between approved versions.
  • Seminars: imagery is food-based, overlap unlikely. If timelines overlap, captions are also differentiated.
  • The definition is fine to share openly with clients — it's a feature, not a secret.
SMS consent (TCPA)
Explicit written consent at capture. Sent on behalf of Preplan a Funeral.
›
  • Explicit written SMS consent required at point of capture. Email opt-in does NOT cover SMS.
  • All Fintra SMS sent on behalf of Preplan a Funeral (single sending entity).
  • Fintra-provided disclosure + privacy link (info.preplanafuneral.com/Privacy-Policy) sits immediately below the phone field, 10pt min. Partner does not modify.
  • TCPA-aligned.

AM operating standards

Hub alert subscriptions: keep current
Lead / Reporting / Feedback checkboxes. Update on-call, when stale, at renewal.
›

Each client has Lead / Reporting / Feedback alert checkboxes in the Hub. AMs are responsible for keeping them current — update on the call when a client expresses a preference, when you stumble on a stale setting, and proactively at renewal. Backend isn't live yet; capture data anyway so when it ships, no client gets surprised.

File Cases with deliberate priority
The priority you pick IS the SLA. Don't default to Normal.
›

When filing a Case in the Hub, the priority field you choose is the SLA you're committing to. Don't default everything to Normal. When in doubt, err high — downgrade later if it turns out lower-stakes.

Renewal-call hygiene
Before close: alerts, counselor info, location dropdown, package mix.
›
  • Confirm Hub alert subscriptions reflect what the client wants
  • Confirm counselor name/photo/reply-to email are current (staff changes are the #1 reason nurture feels "off-brand")
  • For multi-location FHs: verify the LP location dropdown matches their current footprint
  • Note any tier/add-on mismatch (Foundation client behaving like Engage; running seminars manually without the add-on)

📣 Facebook Ads
Purpose-built lead-gen + seminar campaigns, quarterly themed, you approve once.
›

Fintra runs purpose-built Facebook campaigns for one job: filling your appointment calendar with preneed leads and your seminar room with RSVPs. Every quarter you get a themed strategic plan — "Honor & Reflection" in Q4, "Seasons of Legacy" in Q2, and so on — with two preneed concepts and seminar options ready to go. Lead capture happens on your landing page; results show up in your weekly Monday digest and the Hub. You approve once per quarter; we handle production, placement, performance, and the boring parts.

⚖️ Fintra vs. boosted vs. self-managed
Why our ads outperform boosting and DIY — the wrong-tool-for-the-job framing.
›

Boosted posts are optimized for engagement — likes, shares, comments — not lead capture. Boosting is the wrong tool for the job: your page feels active but almost no one books an appointment off it.

Self-managed Facebook ads can work, but the cost is the time it takes to learn lead-gen ad mechanics, write the copy, design the creative, set up the audience, monitor spend, and rebuild it all next quarter when fatigue sets in. verify

Fintra runs lead-generation campaigns built specifically for funeral homes, in a 2026 calendar of quarterly themes with proven concepts. You approve once; we produce, run, and optimize — Facebook's dynamic creative system tests our approved variants and concentrates spend on whichever is converting best in your market. Leads flow into your nurture sequence automatically. You get your time back and your seminars get filled.

🎯 Landing Pages
Converts existing traffic into leads — doesn't generate traffic. 3 of 4 bookings same-session.
›

Important framing: a landing page converts existing traffic into leads — it doesn't generate traffic the way Facebook ads do. Facebook ads go out and find an audience; a landing page gives the audience already on your website a place to raise their hand. Best practices to maximize that conversion: clear linking from your main website to the LP, single CTA per page, educational "6 Questions" approach to build trust before asking for anything, mobile-first design verify. The thank-you page is where the real magic happens — 3 out of 4 of all appointments are booked in the same session as the LP submit, right on the thank-you page while interest peaks. Fully branded to your funeral home. One page per landing page; multi-location funeral homes can serve all locations through a single dropdown.

Landing page Thank-you page

💬 Engage / Lead Nurture
26-day sequence: 8 emails + 4 texts. Catches the ~25% who book later via email.
›

Most preneed leads aren't ready to book the moment they download a guide. Fintra's Lead Nurture series — 8 emails and 4 texts over 26 days — keeps your funeral home top-of-mind, and stops the moment a family books. The headline result: about 1 in 3 landing-page leads books an appointment with you, and 3 out of 4 of those bookings happen in the same session as the original LP submit — right on the thank-you page, while interest is at its peak. The remaining quarter come back later through nurture, via the appointment link in their emails. Every message is white-labeled — your logo, your counselor's name and photo, sent from your email address — with unique booking links that route to your appointment request form, and your agent is alerted the moment that form is submitted. SMS consent is collected at the point of capture (TCPA-aligned), so when texts go out, they're going to families who opted in to hear from you.

🤝 Aftercare (Grieve Well Live Well)
12-month at-need series. Slowest-burn, stickiest part of the stack.
›

Grieve Well Live Well is a 12-month aftercare series for at-need families — 10 emails and 3 texts across three phases: comfort and resources in the first 60 days, ongoing support through 120 days, and continued presence with planning information for the rest of the year. Genuine care first, always. The series is fully white-labeled and signed by your team. verify Aftercare drives the relationships that earn referrals and the trust that converts to preneed conversations down the road — though that payback is long-tail and not something we attribute directly. It's the slowest-burning but stickiest part of the Fintra stack.

⭐ NPS & Reviews
7–10 routed to Google/FB reviews; 0–6 to private feedback. Protects reputation, grows GBP.
›

Fintra's NPS system asks every family one simple question after service, by email and text. Families who rate 7-10 are routed to leave a Google or Facebook review — that's how your reputation gets built without anyone on your team chasing reviews. Families who rate 0-6 are routed to a private feedback form so concerns reach you first, not the public internet. You get satisfaction data you can act on, your Google review count grows month over month, and unhappy families have a place to be heard before they post.

📅 Appointment Scheduling
Request-based, not auto-book. Why we don't use Calendly.
›

Fintra uses a request-based form, not a calendar-block tool. Families ask for an appointment; your counselor confirms a time that actually works on their end. This sounds like a small distinction but it matters: a family in the middle of a stressful decision doesn't always know which open slot suits them — and a counselor who's been pulled into an unexpected service shouldn't have a stranger auto-booked on their calendar. Request-first protects both sides of that conversation and lets your team stay human instead of transactional.

We've already tested calendar-block tools (Calendly) — the request form converted better. Not revisiting.

🗂️ The Fintra Hub
Lead history + Monday digest. "No spreadsheets, no guesswork."
›

The Hub is where every lead, every campaign, and every appointment lives in one place. Complete lead history at a glance, pipeline stage on every contact, one-click outcome marking (Funded, Unfunded, Do Not Contact, Record Appointment), and real-time enrollment in nurture and aftercare. Open it anytime for live numbers — or skip the login entirely; a weekly performance summary lands in your inbox every Monday morning. No spreadsheets. No guesswork. Just clarity.

"What if I have a local competitor running with Fintra?"
2 approved versions + rotation policy. Sharing the 10mi / 5mi definition openly is fine.
›

Short answer: You won't ever see the same ad as another Fintra client in your market. Here's how we define and handle it.

"We plan for this from the start. Every standard preneed campaign has two approved ad versions, not one. We define competing locations as two or more Fintra clients within a 10-mile radius in small and mid-market areas, or 5 miles in urban markets. When that situation exists, we rotate between the two approved versions so you and another Fintra funeral home are never running the same creative at the same time. Both versions are approved by you up front, so there's no extra back-and-forth. For seminars, imagery is food-based and overlap is unlikely — but if two competing-location seminars have overlapping timelines, we differentiate the captions too."
Do
  • State the 10mi/5mi definition clearly — it's a feature, not a secret
  • Frame the 2-version policy as proactive, not reactive
  • Mention the seminar caption differentiation
Do NOT
  • Promise "territory exclusivity" — we don't offer that, only ad-version differentiation
  • Name the other Fintra client in their market
"How are you targeting people? By age? Income? Homeowner?"
Don't go into mechanics. Pivot to results and similar markets.
›

Default move: do not educate prospects on our targeting mechanics. Dodge and pivot to results.

"Our targeting setup is part of what we've built and tuned for funeral homes specifically — it's not something we walk prospects through. What I can tell you is what's working: [insert their CPL or lead count, OR results from a similar market]. If it'd be helpful, I'm happy to share what we're seeing for funeral homes in markets like yours."
Do
  • Anchor on results — actual leads, actual CPL
  • Pivot to "similar markets we serve"
  • Treat targeting as proprietary by default
Do NOT
  • Name targeting categories (age, geography, interests, etc.)
  • Quote any parameters or ranges
  • Suggest we target on "interests" — we don't
"We tried Facebook ads before and they didn't work."
Reframe to setup quality. Don't assume they tried with a generalist — likely a deathcare-adjacent vendor.
›

Context: Most funeral homes that tried FB ads previously tried with their preneed insurance partner or another agency in the deathcare space, not a generalist agency. Don't frame the failure as "you went to a generalist" — that's usually wrong and feels insulting. Reframe to setup quality and what's different about our approach.

"That's a common story — and it's usually less about Facebook itself than about how the campaign was set up. Preneed lead gen needs a very specific setup: lead-capture forms (not boosted posts), quarterly creative rotation (not one ad running for six months), and a clear path for what happens to a lead after they raise their hand. That's the part most setups miss. Whether the previous vendor was an insurance partner, another agency in the space, or someone outside it — the same gaps tend to show up. What I can show you is what we're seeing for funeral homes in markets similar to yours."
Do
  • Acknowledge the previous attempt as common
  • Anchor on setup/mechanics, not "you picked the wrong vendor"
  • Pivot to similar-market results
Do NOT
  • Assume they tried with a generalist agency
  • Imply their previous vendor was incompetent
  • Disparage preneed insurance providers — they're often the previous vendor
"Our demographic isn't really on Facebook."
55+ is heavily on Facebook now. And adult children — also on Facebook — often drive the planning conversation.
›
"That used to be true. Adults 55 and older — including the 65, 75, 85+ ranges — are now among the most active groups on Facebook in the US verify. And separately: most preneed decisions involve adult children, who are absolutely on Facebook. So even if grandma isn't scrolling, her daughter often is — and she's the one who tends to start the conversation."

verify "Most active groups" claim — confirm with a source (Pew, Statista, Meta) before publishing externally.

"What % of Facebook leads end up booking appointments?"
FB and LP are separate funnels. Anchor FB on volume + cost; don't quote a conversion rate.
›

Important context: FB Lead Form leads do NOT pass through the landing page — they're captured directly on Facebook's form and flow straight into nurture. So the LP-to-appointment conversion math doesn't apply to FB-sourced leads. Don't conflate the two funnels.

"Facebook ads do a specific job: they fill the top of the funnel with high-volume, low-cost lead capture and they fill seminar seats. We treat FB and landing-page leads as two separate funnels because they enter the system differently — and they each pay back in different ways. The honest question I'd reframe with you is: are we delivering enough leads at the right cost into your nurture, and are seminars filling? Let's look at your numbers."
Do
  • Anchor FB ads on volume + cost
  • Acknowledge FB and LP as separate funnels
  • Anchor on seminar attendance and cost-per-lead
Do NOT
  • Quote a blended nurture conversion number
  • Quote any FB-specific conversion rate
  • Suggest FB leads pass through the LP
  • Volunteer a per-source breakdown

verify Whether FB leads SHOULD pass through the LP for double-opt-in or a stronger conversion handoff is a separate strategic question — not something to solve in a script.

"Can I see all the nurture messages going out under our name?"
We don't send the full sequence. Sales walks through select examples + provides subject + timing list.
›

Approach: We don't hand over the full nurture sequence. Sales walks through 3–4 selected messages live on the onboarding call, then provides a written list of subject lines + send timing for the rest. If they push for full verbatim copy, that's a gated request.

"Happy to walk you through it. On your onboarding call we'll go through a few of the messages together so you can see exactly what your families are receiving — and I'll send a sheet that lists every send, the subject line, and when it goes out. The full verbatim text we keep close because the messages are part of what makes the program convert — they've been refined over time and we don't want them out in the open verify. But you'll have full visibility into the cadence and the topic of every send."
Do
  • Offer onboarding-call walkthrough of 3–4 messages
  • Provide subject + timing list for all sends
  • Frame full copy as a closely-held product asset
Do NOT
  • Send the full sequence verbatim by default
  • Promise verbatim copy without a gated request
"Why can't I customize the nurture sequence?"
Consistency IS the conversion lever. Same answer as "can I see all the messages."
›

Same anchor as the message-preview question above: consistency is the conversion lever.

"What gets customized: your branding, your counselor's voice and contact info, your booking links, and which families enter the sequence at all. The messages themselves stay consistent because they're part of what makes the program convert verify. The day we let one client change them is the day that client's conversion rate is at risk. That's the trade-off and we've made it on purpose."
"Why a request form instead of Calendly?"
Request-first protects both family and counselor. We tested calendar-block — request form won.
›
"A family who's just decided to talk about funeral planning shouldn't auto-book onto your counselor's calendar without your team having any say in it — and your counselor shouldn't have a stranger appear on their schedule during what might already be a hard day. The request form lets your team confirm a time that actually works on both ends. It feels like one extra step but it's the right step for this conversation. We've actually tested calendar-block tools — Calendly specifically — and the request form converted better. We're staying with it."

Pillar 1 — Facebook Ads
Quarterly themed lead-gen + seminar campaigns, 2 approved versions, client approves once.
›
What they bought
Quarterly themed lead-gen + seminar campaigns. 2 approved ad versions per Standard Preneed campaign. Production handled by Fintra; client approves once per quarter.
What it's doing
Pull from Brittney's quarterly report — lead count, CPL, seminar RSVPs vs. target.
Talking points
  • Tie performance to the seasonal theme that ran ("Honor & Reflection drove X leads in Q4").
  • Preview next quarter's theme so renewal feels like continuity, not transaction.
  • If CPL is rising: frame as audience saturation, recommend creative refresh or theme extension — don't apologize.
Upsell triggers
Seminar ad add-on · Tier 1 Refresh (+$50) for clients wanting their voice on standard creative · Tier 3 Signature (+$200) for clients ready for original work · Additional location enrolling
Pillar 2 — Landing Pages
Converts traffic into leads. 3 of 4 LP-to-appt bookings happen in the same session.
›
What they bought
Branded LP + thank-you page using the "6 Questions" educational approach. Converts existing website traffic into preneed leads — doesn't generate traffic on its own. One package per landing page.
What it's doing
Pull from Hub — LP visits, form submissions, TY page bookings.
Talking points
  • Reframe up front if needed: LP is a conversion tool, not a traffic-generation tool.
  • Headline: ~35% of LP leads book an appointment company-wide; 3 of 4 of those happen in the same session as the LP submit. The TY page does ~3× the work of the standalone appointment page.
  • If submissions are low: traffic problem, not a page problem. Check LP linking from their main website + their ad delivery.
  • If submissions are healthy but TY bookings are low: counselor follow-up speed is the gap.
Upsell triggers
New website or new brand → new LP package · Multi-location dropdown clean-up if locations have shifted

What they bought
26-day automated sequence — 8 emails + 4 texts. White-labeled. SMS-consent gated. Stops when family books.
What it's doing
LP lead → appointment conversion rate · sends delivered · opt-out rate.
Talking points
  • Headline stat: ~35% of LP leads book an appointment. 3 of 4 of those happen in the same session as the LP submit (right on the TY page). The remaining quarter come back later via the appointment link in nurture emails.
  • If pushed on FB-lead conversion specifically: anchor on FB's job (top-of-funnel volume, seminar seats) and pivot to the LP funnel as where the conversion math happens. Do NOT quote a blended nurture conversion number.
  • If they ask "can I customize it" — refer to the locked customization policy ("consistency is the conversion lever").
  • If they want to see every message — refer to the program preview deck (Sales Materials → Nurture).
Upsell triggers
Foundation client showing nurture-curious behavior → Engage
Pillar 4 — Aftercare (GWLW) + NPS
12-month at-need series + NPS routing. Slowest-burn, stickiest part of the stack.
›
What they bought
12-month at-need support series (10 emails + 3 texts, 3 phases) + NPS routing (7-10 to Google/FB reviews, 0-6 to private feedback form).
What it's doing
GWLW engagement · NPS response rate + score · Review count delta since onboarding.
Talking points
  • Aftercare is the slowest ROI lever — it pays back in referrals and preneed conversions 12–18 months out.
  • NPS isn't just measurement — the routing protects the public review surface.
  • Frame review growth month-over-month, not absolute count.
Upsell triggers
Foundation tier client not using NPS → Engage · NPS detractor patterns surfacing systemic service gaps
Live links
Pillar 5 — The Fintra Hub
Centralized lead/campaign/appointment management + Monday inbox digest.
›
What they bought
Centralized lead/campaign/appointment management + Monday inbox digest.
Talking points
  • If they say "I never log in" — that's fine, the Monday digest is designed for that. Don't push Hub adoption for its own sake.
  • If they DO use the Hub: surface a one-click-outcome metric (Funded vs. Unfunded conversion) to validate the workflow.
  • The Hub is where renewals happen — every conversation should anchor on what the Hub showed this quarter.
Upsell triggers
Multi-counselor FH not using Round Robin yet · Multi-location FH not seeing consolidated reporting
Before you close — checkpoints for every call
Alert subscriptions · counselor info · location dropdown · package mix
›
  • Hub alert subscriptions — confirm Lead / Reporting / Feedback alerts reflect what this client actually wants. Update on the call.
  • Counselor + contact info — confirm white-label fields (name, photo, reply-to email) are current. Staff changes are the #1 silent reason nurture/aftercare feels off-brand.
  • Location dropdown — for multi-location FHs, verify the LP location dropdown matches the current footprint.
  • Package mix — note tier/add-on mismatches (Foundation behaving like Engage; client without seminar add-on running seminars manually).
Leadership calls baked into the Kit
Brittney's report anchors the data · Hub adoption is not a renewal goal · upsells surface organically
›
  • Brittney's quarterly report is the data source AMs anchor on.
  • Hub adoption is NOT a renewal goal — engagement with the Monday digest is the bar.
  • Foundation→Engage upsells surface organically through Pillars 3 + 4 — don't force them at call open.
  • Hub alert subscription hygiene is a hard AM requirement.
Internal: LP variant performance — do NOT share
Per-variant conversion benchmarks. Frame externally as ~35% company-wide only.

Company-wide LP→appointment conversion benchmarks for full-nurture clients:

LP variantConversion
TKG-branded (/getstarted/, /thanks/)39.3%
Fintra-branded (/get-started/, /thank-you/)42.5%
BFP (Beck-embedded forms)35.7%
All LP combined34.7%

Per-variant rates invite "which variant am I on, and can I switch to the better one?" — clients can't switch (it's account-history determined). Frame externally as ~35% company-wide only.

Email templates
Eight fill-in templates: demo follow-up, onboarding, welcome variants, quarterly planning, nudges.
›

Source: Email Templates - Fintra Social Services.docx, refreshed for current terminology. Placeholders in [brackets].

1 · Demo follow-up

Send same day as the demo. Attach only shareable materials per the post-demo library rules (pillar overviews, tier sheets — not methodology docs).

Hi [Client Name],

Thank you again for your time today! I've attached our pricing sheet for your review.

Based on our conversation, I recommend the following plan for [Q#]:

[Package Name] — [Price]/Quarter

verify Ads and content packages are no longer sold as one bundle. Quote them as separate line items: the ad campaign set, and (if wanted) a social content tier.

Content: [Personalized note about their content needs/existing assets — e.g., "Your website is beautifully built and provides a strong foundation for high-quality custom content for your Facebook page. Pairing this with our generic content will give you a well-rounded mix."] You'll receive all custom content in advance for review and approval.

Campaigns: [Brief description of campaign strategy and how it aligns with their goals]. I'll work closely with your team to ensure leads are funneling into your CRM.

I'm excited about the opportunity to partner with you and confident we can deliver real results for [Firm Name]. When you're ready to move forward, just let me know and I'll get everything set up!

Please let me know if you have any additional questions.

2 · Onboarding action items

Send after contract. AM internal: capture the client's alert-subscription preferences (Lead / Reporting / Feedback) during onboarding and set them in the Hub.

Hi [Client Name],

Thank you for your time today! Below are the action items for our [start date] launch.

At your earliest convenience, please complete the following:

  • Accept our Fintra Facebook admin access request
  • Complete the invoice payment
  • Review and approve the campaign outlined here: [INSERT LINK]

I'm looking forward to starting our partnership! Please don't hesitate to reach out with any questions.

3 · Welcome — Ads only

Hi [Client Name],

I'm excited to officially welcome you to Fintra!

Please find your [Q#] deliverables outlined here: [VIEW HERE]

We'll be launching your [campaign type] in [month]. Should you wish to adjust your ad strategy or if any questions arise, please don't hesitate to reach out.

I look forward to delivering elevated social media services that drive results for [Firm Name].

Thank you for your trust and partnership — excited to get started!

verify Ads + content bundles are deprecated — clients now buy sets of ads, with content packages as a separate purchase. Use templates #4–5 only when a client happens to buy both; otherwise #3 is the standard welcome. Confirm the current welcome flow with sales.

4 · Welcome — Ads + Branded content

Thank you for your trust and partnership — excited to get started!

6 · Quarterly planning meeting

Send ahead of each quarterly cutoff — campaign names come from the current quarter's themes (see deliverable schedule). AM internal: use the renewal-call checkpoints (alert subscriptions, counselor info, location dropdown, package mix) during this meeting.

Hi [Client Name],

It's time to begin our [Q#] planning! The goal of this meeting is to review performance from [previous quarter], align on goals, preview campaign options available, and finalize our plan for the upcoming quarter.

I'm excited to walk through some new campaign concepts we have available:

  • [Campaign 1 Name] — [Brief description]
  • [Campaign 2 Name] — [Brief description]
  • Seminar Campaigns — always available

Please schedule your strategy meeting using my calendar link: [Calendar Link]

I look forward to connecting soon!

Note: the calendar link here is fine — the request-form-over-Calendly policy applies to families booking with counselors, not B2B scheduling between Fintra and clients.

7 · Onboarding nudge verify

Send when a client hasn't completed onboarding action items ~5 business days after the action-items email. Launch dates slip when these sit.

Hi [Client Name],

Just circling back on your [start date] launch — we're excited to get going, and a couple of items on your end are all that's left:

[List only the outstanding items — e.g., Facebook admin access · invoice payment · campaign approval]

Once those are in, we're fully set to launch on schedule. If anything's unclear or you've hit a snag, just reply here and I'll walk you through it.

8 · Renewal / planning nudge verify

Send when a client hasn't scheduled their quarterly planning meeting and the enrollment cutoff (1st of the quarter) is approaching.

Hi [Client Name],

A quick heads-up — the enrollment cutoff for [Q#] is [cutoff date], and we haven't gotten your planning meeting on the calendar yet.

The meeting takes about 30 minutes: we'll review how [previous quarter] performed, look at the [Q#] campaign options, and lock in your plan so your campaigns launch on time.

Grab a time here: [Calendar Link]

If the timing's tight on your end, reply and we'll find a slot — I want to make sure you don't miss the window.

"Do landing pages help my SEO?"
Canned reframing — LP is a conversion tool, not an SEO tool.
›

Clients see "a page on the internet" and reasonably assume it's an SEO opportunity. This is the canned reframing.

Short answer

Your Fintra landing page is not an SEO tool. It's a conversion tool. The right question isn't "does this rank on Google?" — it's "is enough traffic landing on it, and is it converting?"

Why the LP isn't built for SEO

  • Dynamic JS personalization at page load — logo, FH name, counselor info all inject after the initial render. Search engines see a generic template on first crawl.
  • Shared domain (go.preplanafuneral.com) — even if Google rendered the JS, the personalized content wouldn't rank under their brand.
  • Structure prioritizes conversion over discovery — single CTA, no blog footprint. Opposite of a page built to rank.

What actually moves their local search

  1. Google Business Profile — most important factor. Active, accurate, regular review activity.
  2. Steady Google review growth — Fintra's NPS routes 7-10s to Google/FB reviews. Indirect but real SEO contribution.
  3. Their main website — content, technical, backlinks. Owned by their web team.

Fintra moves needles 1 and 2 (NPS → reviews → GBP signal). Not needle 3 — that's web-team scope.

"The landing page isn't competing with your main website for search rankings — they do different jobs. Your main site is where someone searches for your funeral home and finds you. The landing page is where curious traffic actually raises their hand. What helps your SEO is the review engine wrapped around all of this — and we're absolutely contributing to that."
Engage / Lead Nurture program overview
Client-facing 1-page deliverable describing the 26-day sequence.
›

What it is

A 26-day automated sequence — 8 emails + 4 SMS — fully white-labeled to your funeral home. Signed by your counselor. Sent from your email address. Stops the moment a family books.

The result

Of the visitors who become landing-page leads, about 1 in 3 books an appointment. And 3 out of 4 of those bookings happen in the same session as the LP submit — right on the thank-you page while interest peaks. The remaining quarter come back later through nurture.

What's in the sequence

  • Day 0–3: Welcome + appointment-request reminders
  • Day 4–10: Trust-building — community ties, planning education, counselor introduction
  • Day 11–18: Decision support — pricing transparency, "why now," common questions
  • Day 19–26: Final outreach + soft break — phone offer, "we're here when you're ready"

Why it's the same across all clients

The sequence is what it is for a reason — it's been refined over time and proven to convert at the rate above verify. Customizing per client would mean rebuilding and re-validating from scratch, which puts that conversion rate at risk. What IS customized: branding, counselor voice and contact info, booking links, and which families enter the sequence at all. The messages themselves stay consistent — consistency is the conversion lever.

What you control

  • Branding + counselor profile (logo, photo, name, reply-to)
  • SMS on/off per program (TCPA-aligned consent at capture)
  • Manual stops via the Hub (Funded · Unfunded · DNC · Booked)

What clients see of the actual messages

We don't send clients the full nurture sequence. Sales walks through 3–4 selected messages live on the onboarding call so they can see exactly what their families are receiving. Clients get a written list of subject lines + send timing for every message in the sequence — but not the verbatim body copy. Full verbatim text is a gated request (per the post-demo doc taxonomy).

NPS & Reviews — what makes ours different
Most NPS tools collect a score. Ours acts on it.
›

Most NPS tools collect a score and stop there. Fintra's NPS system acts on the score:

  • 7–10 routed to a Google or Facebook review — builds reputation, feeds local search ranking.
  • 0–6 routed to a private feedback form — concerns reach the funeral home first, not the public internet.

The routing is the difference. Not just measuring satisfaction — systematically channeling it into review growth and protecting from preventable negative reviews.

How the score is calculated (the "simple confident answer")

NPS asks one question: "How likely are you to recommend us?" on a 0–10 scale. Standard NPS methodology:

  • Promoters = 9–10 · Passives = 7–8 · Detractors = 0–6
  • Score = % Promoters − % Detractors. Range is −100 to +100. Anything positive means more fans than critics.

verify Note the routing thresholds (7–10 → review) are intentionally broader than the promoter band (9–10) — passives still leave good reviews. Confirm whether Fintra's reported score uses the classic 9–10 promoter band before AMs explain the math to clients.

Post-demo doc library — gated vs. shareable
Rule of thumb: what we deliver = shareable. How we deliver = gated. Default gated.
›

Decision rule: If a doc explains what we deliver or why it works for funeral homes specifically, it's shareable. If it reveals how we deliver it or parameters a competitor could reproduce, it's gated.

Mood board + LP placement visual — copy specs for design
Two design briefs: the go-live content preview and the "where LP links live on your site" mockup.

Spec 1 · Client mood board (go-live content preview)

What it is: A one-page visual delivered at go-live for every content tier — Beau's ask for a "client-facing mood board / content preview." Mood boards already exist inside the quarterly demo decks; this makes them a standalone per-client deliverable.

ElementContent
HeaderClient logo + "[Q#] Content Preview — [Firm Name]"
Theme bannerCurrent quarter theme + one-line description (from the deliverable schedule)
Creative samples3–4 sample posts in the client's branding (from their approved tier: Foundation/Branded/Custom)
Caption sampleOne representative caption, personalized
Cadence stripMini-calendar showing posting rhythm (8/mo)
Footer"Questions or changes? [AM contact]" + approval reminder

For design: Canva template so it's repeatable per client per quarter. Portrait, Fintra green accents, client branding dominant.

Spec 2 · LP standard placement visual

What it is: An annotated mockup (or short looping video) of a generic funeral-home website showing where LP links should live — answers "where does this go on my site?" during onboarding.

CalloutPlacement shown
1Header nav — "Plan Ahead" menu item → LP
2Homepage contextual CTA — button/banner in the preneed section → LP
3Footer link — persistent "Preplanning" link → LP
4Flow inset — LP → guide download → thank-you page → appointment request (with the "3 of 4 bookings happen same-session" stat)

For design: Use a neutral/fictional FH site mockup so no client is singled out. Static annotated version first; looping video optional. verify

Prospect drip sequence — non-closed demos verify
5-touch reinforcement for prospects who demoed but didn't close. Skeleton for build.

What it is: Beau's ask — a reinforcement sequence for prospects who took a demo but haven't signed. Skeleton below; needs your voice pass and final asset selection before it gets built anywhere.

Still ahead (needs someone else)

  • Coordination with Brittney on quarterly report format — direct convo

Needs Beau

QuestionContext
API integration selling language. For Funeral Decisions, First Call, Passare, Great Western — which are sell-today, which are coming-soon, which are don't-promise? CIO Data Flows and Architecture → Salesforce have the technical state. Need the selling-language wrapper. One line per integration is enough.

Needs Ashlee (Hub UI)

QuestionContext
Surface SLA commitment on Case detail view based on the priority field — show "Resolution due by [timestamp]" so the team can't miss a Critical-tagged ticket sitting at 23 hours. Hub Cases already has priority as a column. The SLA mapping is on the Quick reference tab. Pair with the AM operating standard (file with deliberate priority).

Needs Brittney

QuestionContext
ETA on the quarterly-with-recommendations report. And — is the doc client-facing as-is, or does the AM layer commentary on top? Monthly report is firmed up. Quarterly format affects how the Renewal Conversation Kit references it. Direct convo, no email needed.
Explicit timelines for Tier 1 Refresh, Tier 2 Select, and the $50 Personalized Proof. Tier 3 Signature has a stated 10-biz-day timeline; the others don't. If a client asks "how long for a Tier 1 Refresh?" there's no documented answer beyond "absorbs into the standard 5-day window." Worth adding to the tier page so AMs have a clean answer.
