Funeral Home Announces Web Video
Heartland Cremation launched an interactive video-driven website which incorporates a virtual host to take visitors through the site, as well as online videos about cremation and veterans’ benefits. According to the Heartlands president, Andrew Loos, they have recognized the need to offer an unobtrusive place for families to research and explore cremation and burial options. “The last thing anyone who is experiencing sorrow or loss wants to do is explore funeral arrangements with a stranger”.
Prizm, a Kansas City-based online video company, added the video elements to the site. “This compassionate video provides a solution to a very sensitive matter that has been prevalent among consumers for decades,” Loos added. “Now, families can explore their options in the privacy of their own home without the pressure of a funeral consultant.”
