Feature Value Added Service: The Gift of Selfless Love
The Gift of Selfless Love, a customizable eight-and-half minute video, focuses on introducing the topic of prearranging, preplanning and prefunding in a sensitive and non-intrusive manner. Each component - prearranging, preplanning and prefunding - is presented in a professional style, helping the families in your community understand how each process is important and how it provides peace of mind to surviving loved ones.

Following are ways The Gift of Selfless Love can help generate leads:

  • Use the video to introduce prearranging, preplanning and prefunding to community groups, including retirement centers, local associations and organizations.
  • Give the video to seminar participants to take home and share with loved ones, providing a transition for families to discuss a sensitive topic
  • Customize the DVD or VHS by developing a personalized cover and inserting your firm's name and logo at the end of the video.
  • Returning the deceased to their home can be an expensive and complicated process. Because of rising transportation costs, help your families be prepared if a death occurs away from home

Contact your account executive, marketing partner or general agent to discover how Assurant Preneed’s The Gift of Selfless Love can provide your families with peace of mind, or e-mail contact.atl@assurantpreneed.com.
