What must be provided when soliciting for funeral services?

When soliciting for funeral services, it is essential to provide a clear price list. This requirement is in line with the Federal Trade Commission's Funeral Rule, which mandates that funeral service providers disclose their prices upfront to consumers. Having a price list readily available allows families to make informed decisions and understand the costs associated with various funeral services. It enhances transparency and allows potential clients to compare services and prices among different providers, fostering an environment of trust and professionalism in the funeral industry.

Documentation of personal relations, a sales pitch, and referrals from previous clients do not fulfill the regulatory requirement for transparency in pricing and do not provide potential clients with the crucial information they need to make a decision regarding funeral services.
