THE Process
The Situation
The Washington Post experienced a significant reduction in celebration and obituary notice submissions.
They need to increase their close rates for interested customers.
The Solution
They found that by offering a keepsake plaque with each of their notices they were able to add value, increase their brand exposure and build goodwill within their local community.
“Customers LOVE the keepsakes because they are personal and permanent. That is why it is a part of our process at The Washington Post. We earn additional revenue over our cost, but the added value benefits the family. We give them something back and that has made the program very successful. “
