As a wise person once said, there are only two certainties in life – death and taxes. And if you’re planning on dying at some point in the future, you’ll need a funeral plan.

Okay, so that may be a little blunt. But, the fact of the matter is, if you really want to help your clients prepare for the future, a funeral plan is less of a luxury and more of a certainty.

It might be a little awkward to bring the subject of death up in conversation, but no more so than with selling life cover or writing a will. But you appreciate that sometimes talking about awkward things now can have significant benefits for your clients further down the line.

And, let’s face it, while some clients will never need to make a life cover claim, a funeral plan is pretty much guaranteed to come in handy one day. We can give you all the support and tools you need to raise the topic with your clients – and your clients (and their families) will thank you for putting some financial security in place for when the time comes.

Very simply, a funeral plan from Golden Charter can help offer peace of mind for your clients. Because arrangements are taken care of in advance, it reduces financial stress and worry, and means there are fewer difficult decisions for loved ones to face when it comes to your client’s funeral.
