The Pre-Need Advantage

When They Walk Out With a Nokbox, They Walk Out With More Than a Plan.

Families who plan ahead with you deserve something real to show for it.

When a family chooses to plan ahead with you, they typically leave your office with paperwork. But when they walk out with a Nokbox, they carry home something they'll open, use, and show to everyone they know. That box on their shelf becomes a daily reminder of the decision they made — and the funeral home that made it easy.

Families who love their Nokbox talk about it. When their friends ask where they got it, they'll say your name. That's not just a gift — it's a referral engine, a goodwill builder, and a differentiator that sets your funeral home apart.

It also fits naturally into promotions: include a Nokbox with every pre-need contract signed this month, and give families one more reason to act today instead of waiting.

The Challenge

Families Aren't as Prepared as They Think.

Even families who plan ahead often leave the practical details of daily life completely unaddressed. The pre-need conversation covers arrangements — but not the accounts, passwords, documents, and directions their family will desperately need afterward.

570

Average Hours to Settle an Estate

According to EstateExec, executors spend an average of 570 hours settling an estate — most of that time searching for things that should have been organized long before they were needed. A Nokbox changes that.

Only about 17% of families who will eventually need funeral services have a pre-need policy in place — a significant opportunity to reach families before the moment of need.

62% of adults say pre-planning is the responsible thing to do. They just need the right conversation — and something tangible to take home.

The Document Scramble

When someone passes, families search drawers, laptops, and boxes for accounts, passwords, and property records. The average estate takes over 500 hours to settle — most of that spent finding things that should have been organized.

The Gaps a Will Doesn't Fill

A will gives legal access. It doesn't tell the family where the keys are, which accounts to close, what subscriptions exist, or who to call. Those details fall to whoever is managing the estate — usually while grieving.

The Missed Connection

Families who come to you underprepared face more stress and more decisions. A family that walks out with a system in place is a different experience for everyone involved.

What It Is

The Nokbox™: An Instruction Manual for a Family's Life.

The Original Nokbox open showing color-coded labeled folder tabs inside

A complete, color-coded system with 67 labeled folders, 72 double-sided worksheets, and clear directions for the next of kin — for every item in a life.

  • 67 folders covering every account, document, and asset
  • 72 worksheets — one side for the owner, one side for the family
  • Portable box with key bag and document bag included

When a family has a Nokbox, your work together doesn't end when the appointment does. It continues every time they open it.

What Funeral Home Professionals Ask Us

Everything you need to know before bringing the Nokbox into your funeral home — answered directly.

What exactly is the Nokbox and what does it include?

The Nokbox is a complete, color-coded life organization system — 15 categories, 67 labeled folders, and 72 double-sided worksheets that guide the owner through what to gather and the next of kin through what to do with each item. It includes a zippered document bag, a key bag, and comes in a portable box with handle. It covers everything from bank accounts and insurance to passwords, vehicles, pets, and childhood photos.

How do funeral homes typically use the Nokbox in pre-need packages?

How do business gift certificates work for funeral homes?

Business gift certificates let you give families the gift of organization without holding inventory. Families receive a certificate and redeem it online, choosing the Nokbox version that fits their home best. Gift certificates ship free to families upon redemption. Contact partnerships@thenokbox.com to discuss the right option for your funeral home.

How many families use the Nokbox and where has it been featured?

More than 500,000 families across the United States have a Nokbox, with over 15,000 verified reviews and 85% rating it 4 or 5 stars. The Nokbox has been featured in The New York Times, Wirecutter, Forbes, and the Denver Business Journal. Jaime Sarche, Director of Preplanning at Feldman Memorial in Denver, CO, publicly recommends the Nokbox to every family she works with.

Peace of Mind, Every Day

A Gift That Stays With Them — and Keeps You Top of Mind.

That box on their shelf doesn't just hold their documents. It holds a memory of who helped them get ready.

Most funeral home touchpoints happen once. A Nokbox happens every time a family opens a drawer, adds a document, or tells a friend they finally got organized. It's a daily-use tool that carries your name forward — long after the appointment is over.

Families who receive a Nokbox as part of their pre-need package share it with siblings, recommend it to friends, and return to your funeral home when the time comes — because you gave them something that mattered.

"

The Nokbox is a highly-recommended organizational system to help your family manage your estate and final arrangements.
