Two Things You May Not Know About Funeral Webcasts

Funeral webcasting enables family and friends to take part in their loved one's funeral or memorial service despite illness, finances, or distance.  It gives mourners who can't travel the opportunity to watch the service live, just like they were there or watch it later at their convenience. 

Recently improved technologies and less expensive broadband, paired with deployments of the military oversees have all lead to an increase in the use of funeral webcasting.  Now survivors who cannot attend a service in person are not just limited to sending sympathy cards and funeral flowers, they too can have closure.

Funeral webcasting offers friends and family members the ability to virtually attend a funeral regardless of their circumstances or their location.  Through funeral webcasting, the bereaved can view a memorial at anytime, anywhere in the world, in the privacy of their home.  Additionally, a webcast can be viewed live or delayed for each individual’s preference and needs.
Here are two things you may not have known about funeral webcasting:

1.  Your Client Families Will Want to Webcast

After the service, the funeral director may keep the video on his website for a specified period of time. Some funeral webcasts are available for viewing for as long as a year after the service. In other cases, the family or funeral director may decide to make videos available for shorter periods, such as three to six months.  Each returning visit to your website puts the name of your funeral home in front of your client families – again and again.
