JAY BAILEY FLORIDA LICENSED PRE-NEED COUNSELOR

WHAT DIFFERENCE DOES MY BEING LICENSED MEAN TO YOU?

KNOW SOMEONE IS WATCHING ME. I HAD TO HAVE A BACKGROUND CHECK AND SOMEONE COULD TAKE MY LICENSE AWAY ETC.

WHY I DO THIS JOB… Stick ‘em Up!

July 18, 1998 my mother passed away.

• The funeral home talked us into a $10,000 upgrade for her casket as our last act of love.

• I think they robbed my family and took advantage of us at the lowest point in our lives.

• I want to make sure that people have information to make better decisions.

HAVE YOU HAD A SIMILAR EXPERIENCE? •

DON’T BE FOOLED BY SHADY BUSINESS TACTICS!

•

PRESTIGE-“YOUR ENTIRE FAMILY & FRIENDS WILL BE HERE, WE NEED TO PUT ON OUR BEST FOOT FORWARD.”

•

GUILT-“DOESN’T YOUR LOVED ONE DESERVE THE BEST?”

•

BAIT & SWITCH-“OUR PRICE IS ONLY A FEW HUNDRED. DOLLARS”-

•

(THEN YOUR FAMILY IS UPSOLD LATER AFTER YOURE GONE BECAUSE YOU ONLY PURCHASED A PORTION OF WHAT IS NEEDED.)

WHY THE SUDDEN NEED FOR PRENEED? The Culture Changed TEN YEARS AGO: 65% DIRECT BURIAL

35% CREMATION

TODAY: 48% DIRECT BURIAL

52% CREMATION.

WHY? • THE CHURCH CHANGED IT’S VIEW • WORST ECONOMY SINCE GREAT DEPRESSION • LACK OF AVAILABLE CEMETERY SPACE

SO LET’S TAKE A LOOK AT THE FUTURE.”

TODAY More People are Cremated Than Buried.

AS DEMAND GROWS WHAT WILL HAPPEN TO THE PRICE?

*NCS SERVICES EXCEED LOCAL BRANDS.

• PUBLICALLY HELD COMPANY TRADED ON THE NYSE • ROUGHLY 2,100 FUNERAL HOMES AND CEMETERIES WORLDWIDE • OVER 25,000 EMPLOYEES • COMBINED TOTAL ASSETS WORTH OVER $11.9 BILLION DOLLARS.

DOESN’T THAT SOUND LIKE THE TYPE OF COMPANY YOU WANT TO TRUST WITH YOUR FINAL WISHES?

WHO IS A PRE-NEED PLAN FOR? PRE-NEED PLANS ARE MORE “ABOUT” YOU…THAN “FOR” YOU!

IT’S REALLY “FOR” YOUR FAMILY! (When this plan

goes into effect you will no longer be living.)

1.

2.

To Protect your loved ones at their most emotional day from getting taken advantage of financially.

So your family will not argue over what your final wishes are!

YOU BUY A PRE-NEED PLAN FOR YOUR LOVED ONES!

IS YOUR CURRENT PLAN-NO PLAN? •Who will be in charge and what will they do first? Second? Etc… •How do I ensure my wishes are carried out once I am gone?

•Will we pay the proper amount and not be taken advantage of?

•Who will pay for my final arrangements?

•What if they disagree?

•Who will notify everyone I care about?

•Who will coordinate, file and obtain the necessary medical permits?

•Who will notify and file with the necessary government agencies? (VA, Social Security, etc)

NOT HAVING A PLAN MEANS “YOU PLAN TO LET SOMEONE ELSE DEAL WITH THE CHAOS”.

HERE’S OUR PLAN…………………...

1-855-4MY-WISH Just one phone call from anywhere in the world 24 – 7 (Anytime) is all your loved ones will ever have to do.

APPTOINTMENT!

HERE’S WHAT YOUR KIDS WILL SAY…..

• “LET’S NOT TALK ABOUT THAT NOW.” • “I WILL HANDLE THAT WHEN THE TIME COMES”.

ARE YOU READY TO LEAD “THE CONVERSATION”?

• “DON’T WORRY I’LL KNOW WHAT TO DO”.

• “I KNOW WHAT YOU WANT”.

TIME MAGAZINE SAYS: Parents need to be parents one last time. “It’s selfish not to take care of these end of life issues and selfish not to communicate with your kids or loved ones about them.”

More importantly, it’s the final statement you make as a parent, you should make this decision and not leave it to your kids or loved ones. Done openly, it will ensure the greatest legacy of all: family members who remain friends after you’ve gone.

WOULDN’T YOU AGREE?

ARE THERE RISKS TO BUYING “PRE-NEED” PLANS?

Florida law requires a pre-need company to place a significant portion of pre-need sales in escrow overseen by the state. Today we have over 266 Million in an escrow with the state of Florida.

THE STATE OF FLORIDA ENSURES PRE-NEED PLANS HAVE ZERO RISK.

WHAT ARE THE ODDS YOU WILL USE YOUR PLAN? •

•

•

Chances of having an accident on the way to here are 20,000 to 1.

The Irony is that you are prepared for something that might happen not something that will happen.

Chance of us passing away is 100%.
