Increase in cremation awareness leads to small business making big gains

November 25th, 2008

Everlasting Memories made a major change of scenery in the month of August.  The small company has experienced an immense amount of growth in the past year and was forced to move into a suite of offices four times the space of their initial office.  The move was a welcome relief to the staff of Everlasting Memories and they are thriving in their new environment.
Several factors contributed to the switch in office space.  The business itself has experienced a measurable amount of growth due to an increase in awareness of cremation jewelry.  Cremation jewelry has hit an all time high for popularity rate as consumers strive to find an affordable yet beautiful way to remember a loved one.

Cremation jewelry, which is a small jewelry pendant that holds some cremated ashes or other memento to honor your loved one, used to solely be accessible through funeral homes.
Now you can purchase cremation jewelry and other cremation items online without paying the high overhead that you would experience in a funeral home or crematory.  Also, with online shopping becoming increasingly popular and in high demand, sales have continued to grow and escalate for Everlasting Memories.

The increase in sales has prompted a need to hire more staff at Everlasting Memories.  The company has nearly doubled in size in the past year and continues to grow and surpass their expectations.  Everlasting Memories has become one of the leading online suppliers of funeral jewelry to consumers and continues to be a leader in providing cutting edge pendants and other exciting products such as cremation rings and cremation diamonds to those that have lost a loved one.

The new building is as exciting as the move itself.  One of the owners of the establishment was actually born in the building back when it was a catholic hospital.   Occupying a city block next to beautiful tree lined neighborhoods, the structure houses over sixty different businesses and entities.  Here you will find an eclectic mix of businessman and entrepreneurs that have grown and become recognized and reputable enterprises.  Ironic that what once was an establishment geared towards helping and giving back to the community now houses an industry leader like Everlasting Memories whose goal is to help those that are grieving for their loved ones!

Everlasting Memories is an inspiration to those that are starting small but have big dreams.  In a matter of four years they have more than doubled their staff and their online growth and have moved from a small one room office to a suite of offices in a busy downtown district.  They have been instrumental in increasing awareness about cremation jewelry and other cremation products available online and have maintained their business integrity by providing a quality product at an affordable price.  If you were to ask Everlasting Memories, though, they would tell you that the most important thing they have achieved is that they have made a difference in people’s lives and have helped those that are grieving move forward.

Everlife Memorials Offers Resources to Cope with the Death of a Pet

November 8th, 2008

In most families, children are often the ones that have the most interaction with pets. Pets usually take on the primary role as the children’s companions and playmates in the family. Thus, when a pet dies, it is more than natural for the child to be upset, especially when the child is too young to understand what death really means. In the death of a pet, it becomes important for parents to help their children through the experience of pet loss.

As a service to its clientele, Everlife Memorials has launched a new section on their official website that is devoted as a resource on various issues surrounding the death of a pet. “Pet Loss Resources for Grieving Pet Owners” contains many articles and guides for pet owners and their children to get through their grief over a pet’s death.

According to the Everlife resource, honesty is the main key to helping children overcome pet loss. Explaining to the child as truthfully as possible that the pet has died instead of making it seem that the pet has run away is the better option, says the resource. The belief that the pet has run away will only result in the development of feelings of abandonment on the part of the child. It is an emotional scarring that the child may not overcome as he or she grows older.

Avoidance of euphemisms is also something that parents should do when explaining the death of a pet to their child. Children can be literal; to them, the phrase “putting the pet to sleep” only means that their pet is sleeping and can still be woken up. It can also lead them to forming fears about going to sleep.

Advising teachers and care givers that pet death has occurred in the family is another thing that parents should deal with to help their child cope with pet loss. The teachers and care givers can lend a hand in supporting the children, especially when their reaction to the death of a pet is depression or withdrawal from other children.

Holding a pet memorial service can also help children greatly in overcoming pet loss. A pet memorial service can bring a form of closure to the children; it can aid them in accepting the fact that their pet is now gone from them and will no longer return. Parents can also keep the memories of the pet alive by giving their children pet memorial accessories such as cremation jewelry, keepsakes and ceramic pictures.

Being honest about the pet death and explaining the death in terms that they can understand is the best way that parents can help their children with the death of a pet. Being able to comprehend the death is something that the children will need to move on. Eventually, they will be able to accept a new pet into their lives once again.

Since 1999, Everlife Memorials has provided memorial products and customer service for families dealing with the loss of someone they love. In addition to pet memorials, Everlife Memorials offers a full range of memorial products for humans, including urns, cremation jewelry, and more.

Everlife Memorials Launches New Line of Personalized Pet Memorials

November 4th, 2008

Scottsdale, AZ – November 03, 2008 Pets are not just animals to their owners; they are members of the family. They are cherished with as much love and care as their owners can give them. When pets die, it is common for their owners to get pet memorials so that their beloved pets can live on in their memories for many years to come.

The demand for pet memorial products is growing these days. In even higher demand are personalized pet memorials, where the pet owner can come up with a customized design to commit to the remembrance of a pet. To respond to this increasing demand, Everlife Memorials has come up with a new set of personalized pet memorials.

Everlife Memorials has a number of product lines that can be customized for pet owners who wish to honor their pets with a pet memorial. These products are:

· Cremation jewelry. Cremation jewelry pieces are trinkets that can contain an engraved picture of the pet or the ashes of the pet. The container is often a pendant that is suspended from a chain made from either sterling silver, titanium, pewter, brass or gold. The pendant can be lettered with the name of the pet and the pet’s dates of birth and death.

· Cremation urns. Cremation urns, whether they are made from metal or stone, can be made into personalized pet memorials as well through engraving. Metallic urns, be they bronze, copper, stainless steel or pewter, are engraved through casting or with the use of a special machine. Stone urns, like those crafted from marble, granite or onyx, are sandblasted. The engraving could be something as simple as the name of the pet and the pet’s dates of birth and death.

If engraving directly on the urn itself is not desired by the pet owner, there are other means of customizing the urn into a personalized pet memorial. Engraved nameplates can be put on the urn. Other ways of customizing the urn include the placement of urn pendants or personalized easels.

· Pet gravestone markers. For pets that are buried in a cemetery or the home garden, pet gravestones are ideal for marking the final resting place of the beloved pet. Pet owners can select among a wide range of markers, be they sandblasted or laser engraved markers, or upright pet monuments. They can even incorporate their own design onto their choice of a personalized pet memorial.

Since 1999, Everlife Memorials has provided memorial products and customer service for families dealing with the loss of someone they love. In addition to pet memorials, Everlife Memorials offers a full range of memorial products for humans, including urns, cremation jewelry, and more.
