May 2019 – The Busy Season for Grave Care

As I visited several local cemeteries this morning, I readily noticed hundreds of grave sites in desperate need of grass cutting and detailed trimming.

Grass grows very quickly this time of year. A couple weeks of neglect means a cemetery can quickly become overgrown. Family members of those buried in your local cemeteries want their loved one’s grave sites well maintained.

Not only is it a sign of respect for those who have departed, well manicured grave sites make family visits more enjoyable. Especially on Mother’s Day and Father’s Day, visits to Parental grave sites are even more meaningful. If grave sites are overgrown with long grass, family visits become distracting. No one wants to visit their parents to find their grave sites overgrown with long grass.

If you have ever thought about starting your own grave care business, plot maintenance will become an important part of your business. Grass cutting sounds simple but it is an integral part of proper grave plot maintenance. There are correct methods of cutting the grass around a grave plot. Cutting the grass properly using these methods helps your Grave Care Business to build a professional reputation and attract many more clients.

Of course, grass cutting is not the only service a professional Grave Care Business will perform. There are many other services such as tombstone cleaning, floral grave decorations, documentation and photography services, cemetery mapping, and many more.

If you have ever thought about starting your own Grave Site Maintenance Business, we have developed a professionally produced Grave Care Business Course that will help you start your own business.

Please take a moment to read through our main website to learn how you can start your own business. Order the Grave Care Business Course directly through this website. We will ship it promptly to you via USPS Priority Mail.

Grave Care Business – Growing Demand

I just got off the phone with a very sweet lady who is looking for someone to perform grave care for her parents who have both passed away.

She had a bit of an accent and I asked where she was from.  It turns out she and her husband are originally from Germany.  Back in Germany, she pays someone to look after her husband’s parent’s grave sites.

Both her parents are buried here in the United States.  Unfortunately, she has been unable to find anyone who performs grave care close to where she lives.  She called us, through our website, to see if we could help.  It’s much too far for us to drive and we don’t have any contacts in that immediate area.  If we knew of someone in that area who had purchased our Grave Care Business Course, we would gladly make a referral to her.

Cemetery Maintenance and Grave Care – Spring 2018

Provide Cemetery Grass Cutting & Grave Site Maintenance and Make Money Doing It.

It’s March 2018 and the grass is already growing. I was in the cemetery this morning. This picture shows that it is time for springtime cemetery maintenance.
The grass has really shot up over the weekend. If you provide cemetery maintenance and grave care, you’ve already noticed a number of phone calls requesting grass cutting around your clients grave sites. Spring has come early to a large portion of the country and now is the time to start making money with your Grave Care and Cemetery Maintenance Business.

Grave Plot Maintenance and Tomb Stone Cleaning

If you’ve never heard of this business, you might ask: What is Grave Site Maintenance?

Grave Care is a niche business that allows you to make money providing services such as: plot maintenance, tombstone cleaning, grave decorations, and more. For many families, adult children have moved away from their hometown or a remaining spouse is no longer able to properly take care of their loved-ones’ grave sites. Some cemeteries have maintenance personnel. However, the workers provide only basic maintenance. Other cemeteries are staffed by volunteers or some other cemeteries are neglected. In all these cases, family members are willing to pay good money to have someone pay proper attention to the grave site.

Grass cutting is just one aspect of this business. I will say this: this time of year there is a great opportunity to make a lot of money cutting grass in cemeteries. If you are detail oriented and if you are conscientious enough to mow the grass properly and not do damage to the gravestones, you can do very well providing grave care services. I urge you to get started now because March and April are prime months to get good paying clients.

Let’s face it; it’s nice to make a lot of money in your business. Grave care transcends “just doing it for the money.” This is a very rewarding business and your clients will be grateful you are providing these services.

Passionate about Cemeteries and Grave Care

We are passionate about cemeteries. We believe that by teaching others how to start a Grave Care Business, cemeteries will be better taken care of.

Our Grave Care Business Training Course will teach you how to start your own Grave Site Maintenance Business. Read more about it on our homepage. The course includes support so if you have additional questions, we are happy to help.

Christmas Decorations in Cemeteries – Time To Remove

christmas_grave_decorationsChristmas Grave Decorations Should Be Removed In A Timely Fashion

I love seeing well-placed Christmas decorations in our local cemeteries. The weather in December is drab and decorations help cheer things up a little. Well maintained Christmas decorations bring a bit of color into the cemeteries at a time when the grass and trees are a sullen brown. Families of those interred in the cemeteries like Christmas decorations, too. In fact, Christmastime is one of the busiest seasons of the year for people paying to have grave decorations placed.

Once Christmas is over, there is a certain amount of time before decorations become disheveled. I like to removed Christmas Grave Decorations by January 15. Most Christmas oriented grave decorations are placed in late November. By mid-January, Christmas decorations have been on the gravesites for over 6 weeks and they begin falling apart due to wind and rain.

Grave care customers appreciate when you take the extra steps to remove decorations in a timely manner. An additional benefit to this is that winter time ground work can be performed between now and Valentine’s Day when the next floral decorations will be placed.

Proper rotation of Grave Decorations is important.

Goose Poop in a Cemetery

goose-poop-cemetery

For we are entrepreneurs; there is no challenge which doesn’t have a business solution….even Goose Poop.

I was in one of our large local cemeteries last weekend. I’ve been there hundreds of times yet I’ve never seen a single goose until yesterday. There were dozens of geese wandering through a section of the cemetery near a small pond. The pond normally contains ducks but the geese were overrunning the whole area.

Local residents like to feed the ducks. However, I wonder if the aggressive geese will force the ducks to leave.

If you’ve ever been around geese, I’m sure you know the expression “like poop through a goose.” Yes, they’re nasty and they poop on everything. Geese show no respect for gravestones and I saw many grave markers covered with familiar goose poop markings.

geese_cemetery“Yuck. Disgusting.” is what I originally thought. But, soon, it occurred to me that this goose poop is an income possibility for Grave Care Business owners. When it comes to money vs. keeping goose poop off gravestones, family members will pay good money to make sure their loved-ones gravestones are not stained by the unfortunate fouls.

Goose poop on tombstones is something I will be studying the next few weeks. This will become a new income stream for Grave Site Business owners who service cemeteries in areas affected by geese.

If you’ve ever thought about starting your own Grave Site Maintenance Business, this is a fantastic time of year to get started. This is a profitable and rewarding business. We have developed a professionally produced Grave Care Business Instruction Course to help you start and operate your own successful Grave Care Business. Read through our website to learn about the business course. You can order directly though the ordering page and we will ship it to you promptly.

Goose poop notwithstanding, please let me know if you have any questions about the Grave Care Business course.

Grave Site Maintenance Business – Improve Your Life

Sharing my love of cemeteries, gravestones, grave yards, and grave care, is important to me. I feel very lucky that I have a passion in life and this passion allows me to visit cemeteries all over the world. I’m lucky (I know that) and I want to share my passion with everyone who shares my love of cemeteries. So, in my blogs and my videos, I often like to share beautiful cemetery sunsets and interesting tombstones and well-manicured cemetery lawns. I believe if we focus on beautiful & positive aspects of life then beautiful and positive things will find us. Sure, I know life can be difficult (and starting a business can be challenging) but focusing on positive things will bring positivity into our world.

Along with visiting great cemeteries, I love finding interesting or funny or inspiring grave markers. I came across one yesterday. It was a grave marker of an adult whose parents had preceded her in death. There was an arrow on her tombstone with the words “I’m With Them.” Though death of a loved one is sad, the positivity of this inscription lightens the sadness.

Positive Grave Stone

This morning, I was in a new (new to me) cemetery performing documentation work. As I strolled the grounds looking at gravestones, I found a gravesite inscription that brought me down a few notches. As I read his tombstone, I wondered what his life must have been like? Was he sad all the time? Was he mad all the time? Did he have health problems? Or family problems?

sad_grave_marker

“A Lifetime in Hell?”

For such an inscription to be placed on a man’s tombstone….it makes me wonder about this man’s focus in life. If he would have changed his focus in life to a more positive outlook, could he have had a happier and brighter disposition?

Maybe.

Changing people’s lives – The more I speak with people around the country, the more I realize many people enjoy exploring cemeteries. One of the reasons we developed the Grave Care Business Course is to help people start their own Grave Care Businesses. It gives an opportunity to start a fulfilling, worthwhile business. Doing something fulfilling and worthwhile (and profitable) gives you a positive outlook on life.

If you’ve read through our website, you know that we offer a professionally produced Grave Care Business training course designed to help you start and operate your own successful Grave Care Business. I love hearing from people we have helped. Entrepreneurs sometimes struggle with starting their own businesses – We’re here to help.

Grave care is a rewarding & profitable business and I love focusing on the positive aspects of helping people get started.

If you’ve ever thought about starting your own Grave Site Maintenance Business, I think you will be very pleased with the amount of material included. Your parcel will be shipped promptly after you order. If you have any questions. please let me know.

October Cemetery Sunrise

Cemetery Sunrise

October’s shadows lengthen as the morning’s sun glints reflectively off polished marble gravestones.

With 20 mile per hour wind gusts and temperatures dipping into the 50’s,
this brisk October morning reminded me of the tasks ahead for Grave Care Business owners.

Leaf fall will reach its height in a few weeks. Tree branches will tumble down in blustery weather. Autumn rains will cause erosion problems. Summer floral grave decorations will need to be replaced by more appropriate autumn colors. These are all opportunities for Grave Site Maintenance Business Owners to increase their client lists, improve their services, and increase their revenue.

The opportunities for Grave Care Services are plentiful this time of year.

Gravestones – Proper Care

Improper Gravestone Handling

Proper gravestone care is something we take very seriously at GraveCareBusiness.com.

Gravestones, especially older gravestones can be porous and fragile. Harsh handling of fragile gravestones can cause irreparable damage. We try our best to put forward the most up-to-date acceptable practices in gravestone care.

I was in a cemetery recently where the gravestones dated back to the early 1800’s. Many of the stones were common fieldstones marking unlabeled grave sites. Other headstones were modern granite carvings with easy to read names and dates.

One of the gravestones had very faint lettering. The backside of the grave marker was especially difficult to read.Chalked Gravestone

Unfortunately, someone had dusted the marker with powdered chalk in an effort to better read the lettering. It’s very unsettling when I see a grave marker with chalk (and in some cases, shaving cream). These are old-timey practices that supposedly help people read names and dates off headstones. Although chalk makes it marginally clearer to read inscriptions on gravestones, it leaves a very unsightly look to the stone. If not washed away promptly, chalk can remain in gravestone crevices for an extended period of time.

Old Gravestone Damage

In the Grave Care Business Course, we have dedicated one section to the proper care of gravestones. Included, is a tutorial on methods you can use to examine hard-to-read grave markers. There is no need to use chalk.

Old Headstone Damage

If you have ever thought about starting your own Grave Care Business, it will pay you to use correct practices in Grave and Tombstone care. For more information about our Grave Care Business Course, please read through our website. You can order the course directly and it will be shipped out to you, normally, within 1 business day.

We love cemeteries and gravestones. We want to do what we can to make sure they are properly cared for.

Please let us know if you have any question.

September Grave Care

autumn cemetery

Autumn is a perfect time for Grave Care Services

And here we are in September. The long, hot, dusty summer is coming to an end. Ahead of us are days of slightly cooler weather and azure blue skies. Autumn is my favorite time of year and my favorite season to spend in my many local cemeteries.

Autumn brings with it the need for Grave Care Services. Grave plot maintenance, tombstone cleaning, and change-outs of grave side floral decorations are of particular interest right now. Additionally, those of you performing gravestone restoration services should complete your gravestone repair work before harsh winter weather arrives.
