Cemetery plot sales is one of several traditions that have changed recently in the cemetery industry. Many families purchase cemetery plots long in advance in order to guarantee family burial plots and plan ahead for funeral arrangements. This pre-need cemetery sale requires cemetery organisations to create a more efficient procedure to avoid possible risks. For example, records of the interred dispersed in different places or information about the purchasers were entered incorrectly. Chronicle is continuously working on providing plot sales features while offering these functions for you to optimise your cemetery plot sales processes.
Quickly see the available plots
Chronicle cloud-based cemetery software offers real-time digital mapping and records management to ensure that all information regarding the cemetery, plot, ROI, and interments are inherently integrated. The vacant, reserved, or occupied plots can be tracked easily with Chronicle’s high-definition aerial image feature and colour-coded plots, making your search for available plots for selling easier.
With the updated databases, you can avoid the risks of the same plot having double-reserved. More importantly, it is done online, no more rummaging through paper documents, or excel spreadsheets.
Not only does Chronicle help you efficiently manage your plots, but it also helps your community. The members of the public can preview the available plots through their mobile phones and find the exact physical location of the plots with the walk-to-grave feature before purchasing. This is exactly the kind of presentation you want to provide and impress your community.
