Eternal Image Updates,
Eternal Image anticipates inclusion in BusinessWeek SmallBiz feature on the Funeral Industry
Earlier this spring Eternal Image provided interviews and information for an article in BusinessWeek SmallBiz on the funeral industry. Look for the June/July issue of BusinessWeek SmallBiz magazine on newsstands Monday, June 16. We are expecting an article on how small businesses are impacting the funeral industry featuring Eternal Image and CEO Clint Mytych. Those interested can also visit the BusinessWeek SmallBiz website (www.businessweek.com/smallbiz) on which we anticipate will appear a more detailed editorial and slideshow of the Eternal Image product lines. .
BusinessWeek SmallBiz is a bi-monthly publication written for small business owners and entrepreneurs. The magazine is circulated to more than 670,000 readers and includes tips on running a small business and important news for small business owners and entrepreneurs that affects their business environment. .
As Auditors Wrap up, Eternal Image Moves Closer to OTCBB
Auditors from Demetrius & Company, L.L.C. are at Eternal Image headquarters now wrapping up after a two day stay. Eternal Image is looking forward to taking the next step in the process to be quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board.
We want to know what you think of our products. We want to know what images you would like us to add. And most of all we want you and your family to have the easiest possible experience.
There are many people who for their own reasons want to believe that themed funerals are a passing fad. They believe that the idea of branded funeral products is trend that will sputter out and that this company will fail.
We believe otherwise. (Otherwise, there would be no reason to be in the business, right?)
There are 75 million Baby Boomers in the US alone. As a generation they are used to getting not only what they need, but what they want – and what they want are brands.
Think of it this way: people don’t buy soda – they buy Coke™ or Pepsi™. They don’t buy cars: they buy GM™ or Toyota™ or BMW™. They wear branded clothes, eat branded food, carry branded phones (you likely don’t have a PDA – you have a Blackberry™ or Treo™) and make “Xeroxes” (our apologies to Xerox™) instead of photocopies.
So, if in life people are brand loyal, why should that not extend to their funerals? Even before our products there were funerals with themes such as Jimmy Buffett/Margaritaville™, Harley-Davidson™ and NASCAR™. (That’s not to say these folks were using licensed images – as far as we know they were not. These were just regular people trying to include their passion in the celebration of their lives.)
At Eternal Image we are building something strong and long lasting. We see the aging Boomer population (of which our management team, Clint being the sole exception, all belong) as an opportunity to change the funeral industry.
The Boomer generation is a world of brands. There is every reason to believe that the desire for top brands will continue from life through the burial process. And we will be here to bring them more than what they need, but what they want.
Our Licenses
Eternal Image currently has licensing agreements with Major League Baseball™, STAR TREK™, Precious Moments®, the Vatican Library Collection™, American Kennel Club™ and the Cat Fancier's Association™. Our team relentlessly pursues new licenses all the time, and many companies approach us to consider their brands as candidates for a line. During the next months we expect to announce the expansion of our products into other brand groups. Check this web site for more information.
