Gather was designed to help funeral homes better communicate with families. One great feature that facilitates this communication is the Startup Message.
What is a Startup Message?
The Startup Message is a customizable message that can be shown to all invited helpers who log into Gather for the first time. You are able to fully customize the startup message to meet your specific needs.
Why is this important?
This can be helpful for a number of reasons:
Ensure FTC compliance by showing families a digital copy of your GPL
Let families know the mission, vision, and values of your funeral home
Communicate important information or instructions to families
Write out any legal disclaimers required by your state
Provide important documents that may be helpful in the arrangement process
List important contact information like hours of operation, phone, or email
Anything else that you want families to know
How do I set it up?
Navigate to the "My Funeral Home" page and find the "Configure Startup Message" accordion.
From this accordion, you can customize each detail. You can even attach documents directly from your Document Library. And once you've added all the details, you can see a live preview of the message to make sure it looks exactly the way you want.
πΎ IMPORTANT: Make sure to hit the "Save" button when you are finished editing.
