Benefits To Being Online:
Why be online?
As you know, the first time anyone thinks of contacting a funeral professional is when there is a death in the family. Questions of who they contact, how much it will cost and what happens next? These can all be a challenge to ask during a time of great upset. Another issue is many people never consider planning their funeral in advance. They might make a will, but not aware that they can pre-plan their funeral wishes. Pre-planning a funeral provides peace of mind. From this, the question of where to begin arises and research online who can assist them with their wishes and what to do next.
What are some of the benefits?
Professionals in the funeral industry need to build trust online. This is not only for their local community, but also beyond. Enlightening people on the undertaking of funerals both unexpected or pre-planned. And giving more insight into all that happens is even more necessary than ever. Social media has a wide reach. It is fantastic for getting you noticed online. Not only within your local community, but further afield. It is also a wonderful tool to show your commitment. Providing an insight into how you can serve those needing you most, at what can be a very difficult time.

Some of The Funeral Businesses I Am Honoured To Assist:
I found our session with Eimer extremely valuable and informative. Social media can seem quite daunting but Eimear helps to make it approachable and by sharing her insights and teaching us the benefits of these platforms, Eimer has provided us with the tools to ensure our business remains at the forefront of peoples minds. I learned a lot In one 90 minute session Thank you.
I recently had a Google My Business profile session with Eimer. Up to now, my confidence and knowledge in this regard, has been very limited. I now feel in a better place on this front. Eimer is fantastic, and the support she has given me has helped me to be able to tackle my profile! Many thanks Eimer, I look forward to our chats and your advice in the future.
During the course of 2021 Eimer has become a hugely reliable and valued colleague. She provides the solution to the specialist needs of my clients who need support and guidance in the vital task of making social media work for their businesses. Eimer is a personable and perceptive communicator who works tirelessly to achieve results for her clients. I have, and will continue to recommend her services safe in the knowledge that no one else is able to provide such an outstanding service.
Really professional and expert advice. Thank you Eimer for your valuable insights and teaching into the benefits of Social Media for our Business. You made what can seem a daunting subject approachable and achievable and I learned a lot. Thank you.
A whole new world! I had no idea how valuable & effective an active social media presence could be & Eimer has certainly opened my eyes. We in the funeral services are often reluctant to promote ourselves. Yet the people using our service often have to choose a firm to entrust their loved one to at a most difficult time & based solely on a website or advert. What better way to make people aware of our services &, more importantly, our ethos, our competence, our compassion & our capabilities & expertise as Funeral Directors. Social media allows us to present the person behind the company logo & Eimer has a wealth of knowledge & original ideas as to how it can be utilized. With our towns & cities growing rapidly & the constant movement of people, we cannot continue to rely solely on family traditions & familiarity to bring customers to our door. Our online presence is becoming increasingly important & will continue to do so. It has been educational & enjoyable working with FIT Social Media & Eimer has sparked in me the courage & interest I needed to enter this world of endless possibilities.
Eimer helped me realise the true potential and value of a good online business presence. With myself being a bit of a Technophobe, she was extremely patient and informative, showing me exactly how to increase business by utilising several online platforms including Google Business, Facebook and our own company website. I would thoroughly recommend Eimer Duffy at FIT Social Media Training for all your online media training.
