Key Elements

Online Ordering

Most Wilbert plants currently receive vault orders over the phone — either during office hours by staff or after hours by an answering service or via an answering machine. Now, with an online ordering system, funeral directors can log in to your website and place vault orders online 24/7. And, because they key in the funeral details and receive an order confirmation summarizing their order, they can be ensured that the order is transferred to you with exactly the right information. Order entry errors are reduced because the order touches fewer hands, and it absolves you of order errors since you are only acting on information entered directly by the funeral director. The online ordering feature is very easy to use and is actively being used by numerous funeral homes.

By using an online order form, the Wilbert licensee gains additional benefits as well. It saves time as the order is captured electronically (no rekeying of data is necessary) and because the licensee doesn't have to stop what they are doing and manually take an order over the phone. A track record and history of orders is kept in the back-end of the system as well, meaning easy access to monthly or quarterly reports. Once an order has been submitted, the funeral director receives an online confirmation and the licensee receives an immediate email confirmation as well. Email confirmations may be printed and used as paper orders or as delivery tickets.

Product Catalog

Each Wilbert licensee that develops a website with Peacock Marketing Group will be given complete access to the online product catalog. This catalog — with more than 200 items offered by Wilbert — will be embedded into your site and your visitors will have complete visibility to pictures of Wilbert burial vaults, cremation urns, and personalization & memorialization products (Life's Reflections, jewelry, framed prints, etc.). And, as products are developed and/or discontinued by Wilbert Funeral Services, your site will automatically reflect these changes.

6 Reasons to Get a Wilbert Website from Peacock Marketing Group

Online ordering is simple and secure. Funeral homes use it every day.
Over 50 Wilbert licensees chose Peacock Marketing to build their websites, and their funeral directors have placed a total of 165,000 online orders through these websites.
Save $.
The biggest efficiency standpoint is that your office manager, plant manager, bookkeeper, or owner don’t have to spend 5-10 minutes per order manually taking the order over the phone. They can focus on bigger more strategic things like growing the business. Also, the online system works 24 x 7, meaning less calls to your answering service or after-hours calls to your employee on-call.
Avoid errors.
Since the funeral director enters their own orders online (incl. death date, spelling of name, etc), it puts any “errors” in their hands. They get a confirmation of their order too so they can review their submission for accuracy. It creates a streamlined, efficient documented track record for both you and the customer.
Showcase your team.
With the Wilbert website you get a team page with employee photos – the second most popular page of all licensees’ sites. Funeral directors like to see the names of employees and look up who they worked with on the service that day.
Make your company look financially sound and display your products.
Do any of your funeral homes not have websites? They expect you to have one too and not having one could have negative interpretations of your company’s financial stability. The website can also serve as an online catalog to your funeral homes that might have limited space in their showrooms. They can instantly see all your urns, vaults, jewelry, customizations, etc. You can’t possibly stock everything in their facility and printed items are costly and hard to share with multiple family members.
Use your website to keep your orders organized.
At any time, you can access all your orders on the back-end of your site. You can also print out the orders and use them as tickets for your drivers without having to manually rekey them. All orders are sent via email so you have 24 x 7 visibility as soon as an order is placed...no need to call the answering service or the office to find out how many orders you have for tomorrow.
