Community Engagement
Winning Hearts & Minds
As the United States continues to prosecute the War on Terror, across the nation Americans
continue to display their pride and patriotism to a degree not witnessed since
the World War II era. VFMC Funeral Home Providers are a catalyst for their communities to show support and
honor our Veterans and Active Duty Military.
Public relations is the opposite of advertising. In advertising, you pay to have your message placed online,
in a newspaper, or on television or radio. In public relations, the article or
spotlight that features your company is not paid for. Most important publicity has greater credibility with
the public than does advertising. Readers feel that if the media is featuring
your company, you must be doing something worthwhile.
Since 2008, the VFMC Signature Community Engagement Programs have been winning the hearts and minds of
communities all across America.
Hundreds of VFMC Exclusive Funeral Home Providers enjoy top of mind awareness created by the exposure and
visibility that our nationally
acclaimed public relations programs deliver. VFMC provides the tools and materials to ensure your success,
including press releases,
Facebook posts, flyers, ads and much, much more.

Top of Mind Awareness
The key to standing out in your market is having a compelling position & message that anyone can instantly understand. The ValMark "Hospice Collaboration Program" is a meaningful way to elevate your funeral home's Unique Value Proposition (UVP) while emphasizing your commitment to the needs of your client families. It's an excellent way to communicate a higher standard of service, bolster your differentiation and increase visibility.
The National Hospice Organization and its standards document recognizes the significant role of America's Best Funeral Homes & their FH Provider Network in collaborating with the hospice team prior to a death, at the time of death and after the death has occurred. The funeral home owners representing ABFH appreciate the trust that families and hospice workers place in them and they constantly strive to be deserving of that trust.
