Did you know?

  1. Well over half the monuments sold in Northwest Ohio are purchased by the husband and wife together.

    A memorial is intended to memorialize and celebrate a life together. It is best purchased when both spouses are alive to make the design choices. But, even when there has been a death, after an appropriate period of mourning, the sale of a memorial can be a rewarding experience because if done properly, the family will truly appreciate the counsel and care you provide.

  2. Almost 70% of the memorials sold each year in Northwest Ohio fall into a predictable and limited range of styles, sizes, and colors.

    This makes it very easy to learn the basics of memorial sales. Our system of designs, approvals, and computer generated order forms makes selling and ordering memorials mistake proof. We can guarantee that the memorial will exactly meet the specifications and lettering instructions called for by the purchase order. This eliminates any risk on your part.

  3. The price of memorials is becoming more and more expensive and this has forced many families to purchase smaller memorials made of less expensive granite colors.

    Affordable Monuments is revolutionizing the way memorials are priced and sold. We do this by cutting out the middleman. Unlike the typical retail memorial dealer who sells on commission, our dealers purchase directly from the granite supplier and pay us to engrave and set the memorial. This means you can offer your community the same high quality memorials as other retail dealers but at significantly lower prices. Imagine saving your neighbors, family and loved ones money, providing a rewarding service to your community all while creating a profitable business for yourself.

You can do this by giving them a choice and it is much easier than you might think.  In fact, most of our dealers start out by selling monuments to family members and friends at great prices.  This gives them the opportunity to “get their feet wet” in a low pressure sales environment.  After they have sold their first 4 or 5 monuments, they realize how easy our program is to use and they are ready to expand their business to the local community.  As an added plus, these first customers readily tell others about the deal they got and how fast their monument was delivered.

We make selling memorials very easy.

All of our memorials are sold from an actual drawing that the customer approves at the time of order.  In fact, our system of drawings, proofs, and approvals, is mistake proof.  While we cannot stop the customer from giving you a wrong spelling or date, we can make certain that the memorial will be engraved exactly as the customer ordered it.

There are no startup costs or investment requirements and we provide an array of selling tools. These include granite samples and photos, brochures, design albums, and full color drawings.  Our easy to use interactive website allows you to create or order designs online and print a picture of the memorial for the family to approve.  All sales and order forms are provided with all the pertinent information filled in for you.

Once you sell the memorial, your job is done.  We order the granite for you, engrave it, and set it in the cemetery after the cement foundation has been installed.

Even though our suggested retail prices are lower than any other retail dealer, you will still make a good profit from every sale.
