What would you need to start your own funeral business? -

I think I would be good at it. Would I have to start as an apprentice somewhere?

Are you in America or the UK? If you are in the UK you have to go for something called a diploma in funeral directing. Usually people in the UK belong to the British Institute of Funeral Directors after receiving their diploma. Unfortunately, I don t know much more than that about the UK.If you are in the U.S. you will want to look into the American Board of Funeral Service Education. There you can look at accredited schools in funeral directing. Usually is is a 4 year mortuary science or funeral director type degree. Individual states also have their own licence requirements. Some require an associates degree, an apprentiship, and passing a board exam, while others want the four year and the board exam, so you will have to look into that as well.You are also obviously going to need a small business loan and remember that althought I think it is a decent job pay scale wise, it is not the highest. Even for those who own their own business, they can expect a max salary of about 60,000. Usually its more like 30,000-50,000 per year. Here s a great job description site: http://www.bls.gov/oco/ocos011.htmGood luck!

A licensed mortician, a few contacts in the casket industry, lots of embalming fluid, a cosmetologist, a hurst or two, a business license, and much more. You should interview someone in the business to see what all is required.

you need to have good business plan to supply to any institution you re looking to get a business loan from. Without a plan, showing financial structure and planning it s going to be impossible to get a loan.

Hmmm. A freezer, a furnace, corpses, and most important a clothing pin to plugging the nose.Oh, and a shovel coming in handy too.

Because people are just dieing to get in. What better business to be in with the way the economy is today.

Lots of licenses.The handling of dead bodies is a highly regulated industry.

bodies

Dead people.

Lots of dead bodies.
