Cemeteries are for the living.
Cemeteries are essential.
They honor those who came before us. They preserve our heritage. They protect our history. They help us both greave and celebrate. And they've done so for centuries.
That said, fewer than 10% of U.S. cemeteries have a social media profile. The death care industry is woefully absent from where their communities are.
This is where we come in.
Trustone Media is a content production company devoted to helping cemeteries engage their communities more meaningfully and creating more opportunities, through social media content.
What we do.
Evaluate
What works best in Atlanta is not the same in Dallas, Seattle, New York, or that tiny town in the middle of Montana. Our intake form helps us evaluate your situation and needs. The form is followed up with a phone call to answer questions (yours and ours), and from there we will provide a few options to choose from.
Strategize
We will develop a social content strategy that is appropriate for you and your cemetery, taking into account your circumstances and budget. Not everyone can afford everything, and sometimes "everything" isn't the answer.
Train
We do not manage your social media. We train your staff to do it. We offer in-person and remote training, working with your team on best practices, techniques, production calendars, and short-cuts. We will help turn them into the influencers they never knew they could be. And no, this doesn't mean they're in front of the camera, although sometimes ... maybe ... a star is born.
Produce
Together we'll create content that better engages your communities. From seasonally relevant content, news, and events, to more captivating videos, we'll write, shoot, and edit stories that matter. You'll learn the tricks of the trade, and your cemetery will be more than a place of remembrance. It'll be a vibrant, cultural hub, the way it ought to be.

We know that social media is among the last things a cemetery has the time to manage. Serving families in their time of need is the prerogative, without question. But creating better, more relevant content is easier than most cemeteries realize, and it can lead to many more opportunities, even revenue streams.
Our training and productions are bespoke to the tasks at hand. We've created weekly series. We've created annual shareholder videos. We've created content for landing pages.
About us
TruStone Media is a content production company with more than 25 years of experience in production and marketing—with a particular affinity for cemeteries.
We specialize in video and social media campaigns. More than that, we work with cemeteries to train their own people to create its own content.
We are not a marketing agency. We do not buy media or place ads. We do not manage social media accounts. We give your team the tools, training, and confidence to do it themselves.
And that makes all the difference.
It's showtime.
You can always reach out to us directly, or use this intake form to tell us more about your cemetery and what you hope to accomplish. We will get back to you as soon as possible and schedule an introductory meeting.
