I would recommend JCG’s services to my peers as a great resource for the funeral profession. They can assist funeral homes in maintaining and growing their current ownership stakes as well as valuating your firm for a succession plan in the future.

A good memory I have had with JCG is the amount of detail and time they have invested working with me specifically to ensure the successful approach we’re looking to achieve at Weigel Funeral Home.

I am thrilled to share my experience with Johnson Consulting Group. Their professionalism is unmatched, consistently demonstrating deep industry knowledge and always leading with integrity. We have worked with them on multiple deals and their balance, with representing seller and buyer, is top tier. They do a superb job breaking down the performa and gathering all the necessary information from seller to clearly display the business financials for the buyer. They are always available and have exceptional customer service. Thank you Robert Murray, Karen McCurdy, David Adams and Team for always giving your best!

Caring Service Group

I have been a client for many years. The experience and insight at all levels is top notch. Greg, Nelson, Bernie, and Vince are always responsive. They are a professional group of individuals that pay attention and listen to our needs.

JCG is the right fit for me and I would recommend them for coaching and sound advice!

3 words that come to mind about JCG are polite, assuring, and confident.

A few years ago, Nelson and Vince visited us to present an on-site training program for our management team. Since that time, we have sent new location managers to Scottsdale to participate in the program. The two most beneficial aspects are the personality assessments and the individual coaching.

The individual coaching that each participant receives from a Johnson Consulting mentor serves as an example of how to help people set specific goals and achieve them through follow-up and holding them accountable. This is a great benefit of the training and is very helpful for the managers as they coach the teams at their locations.

Johnson Consulting provide tremendous value as funeral home consultants. Our six location firm has benefited from their insight and coaching. We recently participated in their Leadership Management program in Scottsdale. It was well organized and had fabulous insight provided by Vince, Derrick and Nelson.

I am writing to express our appreciation for the exceptional work carried out by Ryan and Nelson.

Their dedication and commitment to maintaining the financial integrity of our organization have been truly commendable. The meticulous attention to detail and the tireless efforts they invest in their work reflect their professionalism and passion for excellence.

In the ever-evolving landscape of financial management, Ryan and Nelson consistently demonstrate their ability to navigate complexities with finesse. Their contributions have significantly contributed to the success and efficiency of our accounting processes.

As we celebrate their continuing efforts with Thanos Group, it is only fitting to acknowledge the positive impact they have had on our team and the organization. Their teamwork, analytical skills, and problem-solving abilities have undoubtedly elevated the standards of our accounting practices.

I am confident that their continued efforts will play a crucial role in the continued success of Thanos Group. We are congratulating Ryan and Nelson on their outstanding achievements and thanking them for their unwavering commitment to excellence.

Thank you for your attention, and I look forward to witnessing the continued success.

Had to give Vince and Johnson Consulting a shoutout thank you again for the invaluable experience in Scottsdale with Dave Shank last March and May. Had to give credit where it’s due and hope to send some of my staff to see you in the future.

Hope all is well with you, sir. Thanks again for a meaningful experience last year!

Before the Incentive Compensation Plan (ICP), our company’s bonus payouts lacked consistency and transparency. I primarily decided on them based on what I considered a good quarter or year. However, with the ICP in place, it has eliminated any confusion among employees regarding the timing and eligibility for bonuses. Additionally, it has positively impacted our survey response rate, as the funeral directors now understand that a specific response threshold must be met for bonuses to be awarded.

The ICP is a vital tool that ensures bonuses align with company performance goals while remaining fair and attainable for employees. Once we’ve set the annual budget, my involvement is minimal until we receive the quarterly reports. These reports are invaluable for our quarterly reviews and decision making.

I highly recommend Johnson Consulting’s Incentive Compensation Plan. It has revolutionized our bonus approach, making it more meaningful and aligned with our company’s success. The customization, ease of management, and insightful reports make it an excellent choice for improving compensation structures.

We have been with JCG for about four years. As we have expanded and grown we hired our own CFO and separated from JCG. After four months we realized we had made a mistake. I called JCG and explained what had happened and asked if they could help us out. Of course they did and with in four weeks they had everything caught back up for us. They have been terrific. Nelson and Niccole have been the biggest help to us, but I know there is a whole team working behind the scenes to keep us going.

Vince and Nelson did an outstanding job of facilitating the steering committee meeting. They treated our business as if it were their own. Their thoughtful input, suggestions, and comments were always very insightful and helpful. Please relay to them my heartfelt gratitude for their passion and dedication of making our operations and business the best. We look forward to implementing what we went over and becoming a better funeral service organization.

The importance of shared values

In David Rabenhorst’s words, it was very important for him to work with someone who shared his core values, and would at all times have his best interests at heart. We’ve taken great pride in always being there for David, and for guiding him through the sale of his funeral home business. It’s the kind of trust we strive to earn from all of our clients.

A partnership among friends

Rick Allnutt discusses his 20-year relationship with Johnson Consulting and how it evolved into a genuine friendship over that time. When Rick decided it was time to sell his funeral home business, he knew he could rely on our “honesty, knowledge, and experience” to ensure that the buyer checked all the boxes for Rick and his family.

We cover a lot of ground so you don’t have to

It’s been a pleasure to work with Brad and Trish Hansen. Through the years, we’ve provided support in various facets of their funeral home business. The Hansens have relied heavily on our Management Services and Performance Tracker software to help them operate more strategically while managing their continuous growth.

There for you from start to finish

Laurens Fish first turned to Johnson Consulting for help with his funeral home’s accounting needs. When Laurens decided to sell his business a few years later, he knew that he could rely on our expertise to guide him and his partners through the complex process. This “start to finish” approach is central to everything we do for our clients.

To operate a business you need the numbers

Tom Starks of Starks Family Funeral Homes & Cremation Services shares how JCG took his business’s financial operations to the next level. This included preparing his children to take over the family business as part of a comprehensive succession plan. For us, that was all part of a relationship based on friendship and trust.

We appreciate your sensitivity and understanding in regards to the difficult decisions we faced in choosing a successor to continue our family legacy.

During the entire process I was very comfortable with the professional yet personal way details were handled and now that we’re finished I am very confident in the results.

When we decided to take the next step for our business, there was only one company we considered to help us, Johnson Consulting. We have known the Johnson family for years and our respect and trust for them runs deep. Their team was excellent at keeping everything on track through closing and we greatly appreciate their expertise throughout.

Randy Schoedinger

Without question, I highly recommend the Johnson Consulting group and will always appreciate the initial help to get started from Tom Johnson.  In addition, Jake Johnson, Karen McCurdy, Simon Wong and especially David Adams all contributed to a smooth process. David Adams led the team that got us through the finish line.
