2008 OGR Educational Seminars

Fall Seminars Tackle "Business Fundamentals...Connecting the Dots"

It's a fundamental fact of doing business. Every decision you make, every task you implement, can have multiple ramifications for your funeral home. Be it a fiscal decision, a staff hire, a new technology. The result is sure to impact your staff, your profitability and growth - and the families you serve.

The two educational programs being offered at OGR's 2008 Fall Seminar Series will help you understand, prepare for and implement changes necessary to your firm's fiscal health and growth, as you learn, enjoy and connect with fellow members.

Take steps to secure a more fundamentally sound future. Register now for these outstanding educational meetings and OGR-only social networking opportunities.
