Obituary Assistant is a modern, leading-edge obituary system that lets you easily add obituaries and installs into any website in minutes. Obituary Assistant is free to for any funeral home in the United States and Canada and we pay you a commission on flower sales.
Obituary Assistant can also be used by pet cremation facilities, newspapers and international funeral homes.
Obituary Assistant has a simple, clean dashboard that lets you easily add and manage obituaries.
If you’re on WordPress, you won’t have to login to WordPress to post an obituary. To enter an obituary, log into the FHW Solutions dashboard, add your obituary and it appears on your website instantly. The dashboard allows you to add pictures and videos of the deceased along with service information such as visitations, funeral service, church service and interment. We have standard service types to choose from and you can also add your own service types.
You can choose to allow your website visitors to add pictures and condolences and you be notified by email and or text when visitors have added pictures and condolences. For pictures and condolences submitted by website visitors, you have the choice to auto-approve this content or you can choose to approve each manually. Your visitors can easily share your obituaries across social media which spreads the word of the passing and increases traffic to the services and to your website. Your website visitors can subscribe to a single obituary to receive updates when new content such as pictures or condolences are posted. Visitors can also be alerted to each time your funeral home adds an obituary. This lets your community stay connected to your funeral home, it raises customer awareness and builds your funeral home’s brand name.
Obituary Assistant can also be used by pet cremation facilities to memorialize dogs, cats or any loved pet. Paws Whiskers & Wags is an example of Obituary Asssitant being used for pets.
We initially designed Obituary Assistant for human passings but we have had strong interest in our product from pet cremation facilities. We realize that Obituary Assistant needs to be modified to properly memorialize pets. Here are changes coming to Obituary Assistant to make it more ‘pet friendly’ and our approximate timelines for those changes.
Obituary Assistant is not just about memorials to your website, this is an opportunity to engage your customers and grow your business. Your website visitors can add photos and condolences of the pets they knew and loved. Your visitors will share your pet memorials across social media. They can follow updates for a single pet memorial or they can subscribe to receive alerts each time a pet memorial is added to your website. Not only will familiies be greatly appreciative of your thoughtful memorial service, this lets your business stay connected with your community, it raises customer awareness and it makes your brand stronger.
