Great Lakes Partnership Launches Virtual Roundtable Events for Agents and Funeral Home Owners
Richmond, MI – April 8, 2025 – Great Lakes Partnership (GLP), a leading provider of premium marketing and preplanning solutions for funeral homes, is proud to announce the launch of its new Virtual Agent Roundtables and Virtual Owners Roundtables. These quarterly Zoom events are designed to bring together funeral professionals —for meaningful conversation, collaboration, and connection leveraging the convenience of technology.
As the industry continues to evolve, GLP recognizes the importance of adapting to meet the needs of today's busy professionals. These virtual events offer agents and owners separate, dedicated spaces to discuss current challenges, celebrate victories, and share insights in real time—all without leaving their office or funeral home.
“Time is one of the most valuable resources for both funeral home owners and advance funeral planners,” said Jon O’Hara, CEO of Great Lakes Partnership. “By moving these roundtables to a virtual format, we’re not only saving time and travel—we’re making it easier than ever to foster connection.”
Inspired by the efficiency of virtual models used by leading corporations, GLP is excited to bring this approach to Michigan’s funeral professionals. The quarterly roundtables will serve as a platform for education, idea-sharing, and support—ensuring that every voice, no matter the location, can be heard and valued.
Virtual Agent Roundtables and Virtual Owners Roundtables will begin this quarter, with invites and Zoom links sent directly to GLP partners.
