In the spring of 1991 a childhood dream came out of Curt Christman's mind and became a reality. Lewis County Monuments was started. In 2007 the name was changed to North County Memorials Inc. to better facilitate the current vision of serving Northern NY. Currently, Curt and his eldest son Christian are in a partnership operating the monument business. This small business has endured the ups and downs that all businesses encounter. Come along and enjoy the ride!-

    Thanks for talking about this topic Christian. Always a good one to cover. When you work with a family, you always expect them to reach back out or purchase that same day. It doesn’t always happen, as you know. Sadly some will go somewhere else in an extreme case for one reason or another. Best thing you can do is make sure to reach out on a set timeline, and do your best to get their business. It’s happened to me plenty of times, best you can do is learn from it! Have a great week.

    I would be sure to leave a timetable for reaching out to a prospective customer so that there is an agreed upon date for reestablishing communication. It's a relationship and should be treated as such to achieve some form of closure.

    One of the things we do is visit with funeral homes and their directors and educate them on the process of making a memorial and the length of time it takes to complete. We try to educate them so that they can convey that to their families. If the customer is hoping for a spring time memorial, then ordering one during the winter months is the best time. All of that work can be completed while the cemeteries are frozen and we can't service. But in the spring their memorial is ready to go. Last year, January was our 2nd busiest month of the year. Just some food for thought, seems to have really helped us. Keeping making these awesome videos!

      @atclfi3 4 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Agreed, Winter is the best time to order. I have so many people come in during the spring to early summer and want their monuments out by the end of the year, which doesn’t always happen! I always encourage people the best time to order is December - February!
