For funeral directors
Help families keep the stories they tell at the funeral.
When someone dies, families gather photos and share memories they may never write down. Mark Books gives them a lasting home for those stories, at no cost to you.
What families get
- A funeral memory booklet, with a date agreed before they order
- A full Memorial book afterwards, written with the whole family
- Every fact checked by a person, and a proof to approve
- Copies for every household, now or years later
What you get
- Sample books for your arrangement room
- A trade price to resell, or a 10% referral fee that we always tell families about
- Simple cards with your referral code to give to families
- An optional co-branded edition with your name inside
How a partnership works
Three steps, and no extra work for your team.
We meet
We visit with sample books and referral cards, and answer your team's questions.
You mention it
When it feels right, you hand a family a card. They contact us when they're ready, with your code.
We take it from there
We look after the family from start to finish and pay any referral fee monthly, with a statement of each order and a yearly total for your payments register.
How we treat families
We never contact a grieving family first. We only reply to the people who come to us.
Books are private by default: we never publish or sell a family's book, and a person on our team checks every page before it is printed. Any fee we pay a funeral director is shown to the family when they order, and we never pay hospices or care homes for referrals.
Hospices and care homes
Life Story books, made while there is time.
Our Life Story book is made with someone who is still here to answer the questions, often with a son, daughter or grandchild beside them. We'd be glad to talk about working with your residents and their families.
Let's talk.
We're starting with funeral directors in and around Birmingham. Email us and we'll arrange a visit with sample books.
