“100% Pure Content – No Sales Pitches”
I received a phone call from a funeral home owner asking about the Workshop. His main concern was… Is the event going to be just a big sales pitch for services that I offer like so many other funeral conferences!
I responded – Absolutely Not! It’s going to be all content.
But better than me just saying that, see what people said about my last conference…
Sean Douglass, El Segundo, California
Rob's presented everything in an easily implementable manner that I can take home and put together easily. I really expected it to be a hard sales pitch and something that I could only do with Rob's help, and no, Rob's given every secret away, that I can take home and utilize it from scratch. He has been tremendous. Rob obviously knows his marketing and knows his advertising.
Kurt Soffe, South Jordan, Utah
I’ve really enjoyed Rob’s conference. Going to one of his conferences is like taking a drink from the fire hose. He provides you with so much great information that I’m looking forward to getting back to our firm to hopefully improve what we do for our families. … I’ll tell you, just to realize the power that the Internet has. I know we have three faces to our families, one is obviously face-to-face, second is our phones, but third is our website. Rob has taken that level of awareness to a new height for me.

Here is what some past attendees have said about Heppell’s seminars…
Anne Geib, New Philadelphia, Ohio
Rob's done an excellent job of not only telling about very technical details but providing overview, how it can fit into your entire marketing plan. We're learning why you do things, how to measure them, and how it's going to benefit your company, which I think has been exceptional for me. Not only has he given us very specifics, but he's allowed your mind to wander and to figure out how it fits into your organization. It's been incredibly helpful.
Ross DeJohn, Willowby Hills, Ohio
The seminar has been tremendous. What I expected I think was a lot of ideas and thoughts, but what Rob is excellent at is putting it into play. So many of these seminars you go to it seems like everyone's got these great ideas, but then they leave you to go home and your head is so filled with these ideas and excitement but you don't know how to get started. Rob does an excellent job at putting everything so simple. Just like the name of the seminar. It's a blueprint. All we have to do is go back and execute.
