Homesteader's Thrive Executive Summit is built around one question: what does it take for this profession to keep moving forward?

Over two days, funeral, cemetery, and cremation professionals will work through the decisions shaping what comes next.
✅ Pricing in a tight market.
✅ What a firm is really worth.
✅ How buyers, sellers, and lenders are behaving right now.
✅ Where technology helps, and where it costs you trust.

We’re proud to help power those conversations. Jake Johnson and Vince Roberge will take part, sharing what we’re seeing in regards to customer expectations, financing your growth, and succession planning alongside the other voices moving this profession forward.

It’s happening October 7 to 8 at The Ritz-Carlton, Amelia Island. Register now!

Did you miss last week's Johnson Consulting Conversation?

Lacy Robinson sat down with Savannah Evanoff of Ring Ring Marketing, to talk about what actually makes a funeral home's social media presence work: not a fancy content calendar, but consistency and authenticity.

As Lacy put it: credibility + empathy = trust. That's the whole game.

Most funeral homes know they should be posting. Far fewer feel good about what they're posting.

On August 19th, Lacy Robinson sits down with Savannah Evanoff, Director of Social Media at Ring Ring Marketing, for our next Johnson Consulting Conversation. It's an honest look at what works and what backfires when funeral homes show up online.

We'll cover:
→ Content pillars your staff can actually keep up with
→ Why Facebook builds pre-need trust quietly, not through the hard sell
→ Where AI helps your marketing, and where human judgment is non-negotiable

Wednesday, August 19th | 11 AM PT / 2 PM ET
