We offer individuals, families, and organizations a variety of services and products. The choice is yours and pricing is based on the product chosen.
If you love, know and care about someone who…
- enjoys story sharing, reminiscing, and making others happy
- seems to have everything but has never finished “their” story
- is acutely aware of time passing and appreciative of history
- has experienced their own losses and transitions
…give them the chance to tell their story.
Special Services offered by Memoirs by Design are:
• Oral History Recordings – When cost is a consideration, hire us to capture and save “the” story today. These CD recordings buy you time while you determine what to do with the recording later.
• Life Story Books – Hire us to transcribe, write, edit, and organize “the” oral history into a beautifully crafted hand-made book, including those one-of-a-kind special photographs. Our partner, Wiering Bookbinding, provides custom bookbinding services.
• Business and Organizational Stories – If you are affiliated with an organization celebrating a milestone anniversary, consider capturing your memorable stories and unique history. From start to finish, we specialize in assisting owners who want to write their legacy and leave their mark in a powerful and enduring way.
• Do-It-Yourself Interviews – Purchase our 60-page, very special Interview Guide to help you ask the questions when circumstances and other forces keep your storyteller homebound and/or you want to do it yourself.
• Guest Speaking – Are you looking for a unique presentation or interactive workshop for clubs, groups, senior communities, service, and non-profit organizations? Our program, Extraordinary Stories of Ordinary Lives, is both compelling and interesting. We provide attendees with a helpful guide that assists them later when telling a story about a special gift or family heirloom.
• Wag-A-Tale Pet Stories – is a unique animal lover’s service that helps people capture their one-of-a-kind pet stories and turn them into book treasures. Posthumous stories are strongly encouraged!
• Life Movies – Use our professional partner, the specialists at Lifecairn, who provide cinematically crafted life movies for you.
• Lifelong Learning – Visit ActiveMinds, a Colorado resource partner, to learn more interesting programs designed for adults and seniors.
Our finished products surpass genealogy, scrapbooking, or cherished photographs. We like to think that we are firmly entrenched in the "PR" (prevent regrets) business.
Adults today recognize the value of preserving stories. They know that, without the benefit of help from a professional to save the story, those memories may be gone forever. Is there any better way to save a story than by hiring someone like Memoirs by Design to help you?
Memoirs by Design will travel to any city or state where there is an urgency to convey the importance of storytelling or to capture a life story. Our prices vary upon the type of work requested. Other options available include:
- Posthumous stories for families left behind
- Wedding and “The first chapter of our life stories”
- Anniversary and “The next chapter of our lives stories,” and
- Birthday “I can’t be this old” stories
- The Successful Small Business or Non-Profit Story
- Skilled interviewer services for any occasion
- Transcription and CD creation for previously written and/or previously captured cassette voice recordings
