Global Funeral Care has extensively researched the problem within the death care industry. This article provides information on the solution, how the platform works for customers, and how the platform works for organizations within the death care industry.
The Problem
Global Funeral Care found three major industry barriers that can be significantly improved.
- No Complete Customization
Complete customization of funerals is not possible. Therefore, customers often end up buying goods and services they don’t want. - No Transparency
Service providers in the funeral industry are often not clear about what customers are paying for. - High Prices
The prices of funeral services have risen almost twice as fast as consumer prices for all items for the last 30 years.
The Solution
Customers can completely customize their funeral by selecting products and services from different organizations. The funeral costs will be updated in real time as soon as products and services are selected by the customer, who can save money when they booking a funeral by choosing less products and services on the platform.
The Global Funeral Care Platform
The Global Funeral Care Platform will be available as application and there will be a mobile-friendly web-version.
