Why Is In-Home Care Hot? Take a Look at the Facts

Why Is In-Home Care Hot? Take a Look at the FactsThe franchising world is filled with endless opportunities, making it difficult to select the career path that is likely to present the brightest future. From fast food to fitness, there is a franchising opportunity for every interest, and each one has its pros and cons. However, if you’re interested in investing in a franchise that offers explosive growth along with the chance to make a difference in your community, one franchise sector shines brighter than most others – in home care for seniors.

Why is this franchise sector so appealing for savvy investors and entrepreneurs?

Let’s take a look at the facts!

-There are more than forty-million seniors in the United States

This means that seniors make up a huge segment of the population – 13.1 percent, in fact! But that’s not all: in just 35 years, the total number of seniors in this country is expected to double, and people over the age of 65 will represent more than 20 percent of the population. As the senior population grows, so will its need for care.

-More people want to “age in place”

Nursing homes and care facilities will always have their place, but they are becoming less and less appealing to the senior population. In fact, 90 percent of individuals aged 65 and older say that they would prefer to remain in their current residence as they age. Technology helps make this possible, but the the presence of in-home caregivers from companies like Always Best Care makes it even more appealing and practical. This means that home-care franchisees will always have a viable business model to work within.

-Health care jobs are moving to non hospital settings

According to the U.S. Department of Labor, occupational growth will occur at a rate of nearly 50 percent for home-health and personal home-care careers in the coming years. Who will employ these caregivers? Franchisees in the home-care industry, of course!

-Costs of care are rising

Why Is In-Home Care Hot? Take a Look at the FactsThe cost to care for a person suffering from Alzheimer’s or another form of dementia is predicted to rise substantially. The cost to treat Alzheimer’s alone is expected to exceed $1 trillion annually in the United States. This means that families will increasingly look to save money wherever possible while maintaining a high standard of care. Companies like Always Best Care will be there for those families, and franchisees will find themselves in a position to not only achieve business success in a lucrative market, but to make a real, lasting difference in their communities.

Franchise With Always Best Care and Join a Flourishing Industry

Franchising is a great way to achieve business success, but the home-care industry offers the opportunity to make a difference in a rapidly changing world, as well. If you’re interested in getting on board with your own senior-care franchise, contact Always Best Care today!

Meet Bryant Greene – Our Amazing Franchisee of the Year!

Meet Bryant Greene – Our Amazing Franchisee of the Year!Of all the wonderful franchise owners in the Always Best Care system, perhaps no one exemplifies perseverance and success quite as well as Bryant Greene, owner of Always Best Care Senior Services of Philadelphia. Not long ago, Greene found himself laid off as a victim of the “Great Recession,” wondering what his next move should be. Today, he is one of the brightest lights in the growing in-home care industry.

How did he do it?

He worked hard and followed the Always Best Care franchising system!

Corporate Experience Transformed into Franchise Success

In 2009, during the peak of the recession, Greene found himself out of a job. His two decades of corporate experience somehow didn’t appeal to employers, so he sought different opportunities. While attending a job fair, he was introduced to the idea of going into business as a franchise owner. At first, Greene was skeptical, thinking that buying a franchise business would be a poor financial – and career – decision in the midst of a catastrophic financial downturn. However, once he was introduced to the growing senior-care industry, he saw a clear path forward. Remembering his grandparents and the appreciation he developed for seniors when he was younger, he decided to invest in a franchise with Always Best Care.

Amazing Growth After a Slow Start

Things didn’t take off as quickly as Greene had hoped when he opened his first Always Best Care franchise in July, 2010. In fact, the office didn’t attract its first client until three months later! Fortunately, Greene and his staff continued working hard and following the ABC franchise system. Then, once the business was approved for Pennsylvania’s Medicaid waiver program in February, 2011, tremendous growth started to occur.

These days, Greene can boast about a thriving business with more than 1,200 employees and offices in Philadelphia, Bristol and Yeadon. Later this year, a Wilmington, Delaware office will be added to the mix. Although Greene has experienced amazing success and growth as an Always Best Care Franchise owner, the focus of his business remains firmly centered on the care of seniors, believing that the business is only as good as the service it provides.

 

Well-Deserved Recognition

At the 2015 Always Best Care International Conference in San Antonio, Texas, Greene was recognized by the national franchise as its franchise owner of the Year.Meet Bryant Greene – Our Amazing Franchisee of the Year! Thanks to his commitment to in-home senior care, his willingness to give back to the community and, of course, the growth of his business, Greene was an obvious selection for the award.

While Bryant Greene’s success is exceptional, similar results can be achieved by anyone who invests time, energy, money, hard work and dedication into their Always Best Care franchise. Certainly, Greene’s business savvy has helped him succeed, but it’s his commitment to the finely tuned franchise system that has made him a leader in the senior-care industry.

Please refer to the current Franchise Disclosure Document (FDD) for required and pertinent information related to investing in, and operating, a franchise.  Each franchisor must publish and annually update an FDD.  The FDD is made available to you as part of the Discovery process, after your initial discussions with the franchisor.

Learn These Three Communication Keys for Franchise Success

Learn These Three Communication Keys for Franchise SuccessWhen people think about business ownership, they often conjure mental images of lone visionaries who built their companies by hand from the ground up. While there are certainly examples of this kind of entrepreneurial success out there, it is far from the norm. In most cases, businesses only prosper when cooperation and communication are present. This is especially true for franchises.

Whether it’s the franchisor communicating training principles effectively, or it’s a franchisee explaining to an employee how to perform properly, the quality of interactions between people has a lot to do with the prosperity of a franchise.

Here are just some of the ways in which effective communication can make a real difference.

Training

When you look at the most successful franchises, one thing stands out: franchisees know exactly what they have to do in order to succeed, and they feel confident in their ability to carry out the actions that will make their businesses – and the franchise, in general – as successful as possible. This only happens when comprehensive training programs are implemented and made available as conveniently as possible.

Additionally, franchisees need to be able to convey what they’ve learned to the employees on their staffs. When training is consistent, useful and comprehensive from the top down, the whole process is easy. That’s why you should look for a franchise that takes training seriously when you decide to invest for yourself.

Taking Advantage of Technology and Online Tools

Businesses that don’t take full advantage of the Internet exist in a different time and place, and it’s only a matter of time before they face the same fate as the dinosaurs that they resemble. Some franchises have been able to continue operating based on old methods and models, but the franchises that flourish in today’s climate are those that have embraced and integrated technology fully into their operations.

When you do your homework about franchises, be sure to pay special attention to the businesses that have embraced technology and the Internet. These companies represent the cutting edge of franchising, and they give you the best chance of growing your business effectively today and for many years down the road.

Person-to-Person Interaction

Learn These Three Communication Keys for Franchise SuccessTechnology and the embrace of the Internet are incredibly crucial for franchise success and effective communications. However, nothing will ever replace the power of personal interaction. Successful franchises combine high-powered digital tools with support provided by real people with experience, knowledge and wisdom to share.

When it’s time to make a choice in purchasing a franchise, be sure to select one that provides person-to-person support in real time. When you’re able to work with people who have succeeded using the franchise system, you give yourself the best opportunity to build the business of your dreams!

Want Franchise Success? Follow These Tips!

Want Franchise Success? Follow These Tips!One of the best ways to start your own business in today’s economy is to purchase your own franchise. Franchises offer entrepreneurs the chance to take full control over their careers without requiring them to start completely from scratch.

When it comes to operating a franchise successfully, many of the concepts that are relevant to other ventures also apply, but there are a host of specific factors that franchisees need to consider in order to ensure growth, prosperity and an excellent reputation with their unique businesses.

#1 – Know Your Community

Some franchisees believe that a well-known company name is enough to establish their businesses within their respective communities. While the ability to lean on a familiar brand name can certainly make life easier, it’s still necessary to be active in the community.

Making your business known in the community by donating time, services or supplies to worthy causes – or by turning your business into a resource – is a great way to establish trust and goodwill. On the other side of the coin, it’s also a good idea to get to know your local competitors and what they’re doing to succeed in your part of the world.

#2 – Practice Outstanding Customer/Client Service

Again, you can’t depend on the name of your business to ensure that the people you serve are satisfied; you must work just as hard as any other business owner to make sure that your customer/client base keeps coming back (and recommends you to as many people as possible)! Customer service is key, so give your audience plenty of opportunities to not only find satisfaction, but to also report on their experiences through social media, reviews and other outlets.

#3 – Use Social Media Wisely

Want Franchise Success? Follow These Tips!Speaking of social media , you can grow your franchise business by leaps and bounds if you know how to use platforms like Facebook, Twitter and Google Plus the right way. Maintain profiles on the popular social media sites, and be sure to engage with your customer/client base regularly. Also, make sure people know where to find you online. Social media platforms are free to use, and they can be the most powerful marketing tools available in the current digital age.

#4 – Take Advantage of Your Franchisor’s Support!

Of all the tips that you can take advantage of as a franchisee, this one is the most crucial. Franchises are successful because they use proven, repeatable methods and techniques to establish themselves, grow and profit. Whatever you do, avoid second guessing the valuable wisdom handed down from your franchisor, and be sure to take advantage of all the tools and technology made available to you.

Stuck in a Financial Rut with Your Career? Buy a Franchise!

Stuck in a Financial Rut with Your Career? Buy a Franchise!Our economy is changing rapidly, and the people who seem to be succeeding are those who have taken life directly by the reins. Entrepreneurship is rapidly becoming the best way to succeed financially in our current economy, but many people cannot simply drop everything to start a new business; the risks are too great.

Thankfully, franchising offers a wonderful alternative for people who feel a need to take more control over their careers, but who may not want to start from square one.

Let’s take a look at some of the reasons why buying a franchise could be the perfect decision for you and your career!

Built-In Success

The most attractive aspect of owning a franchise is the proven track record that comes with ownership. Successful franchises are built on the work that’s already been performed by people like you in the past.

Training

Going into business alone is a lot like flying blind, and some people navigate this way better than others. With a franchise, you are given the tools and training to succeed during every step of the process. Successful franchise operations train their franchisees so that they’re prepared to excel in any situation.

Marketing Help

Going into business often requires people to wear many different hats, which can lead to people spreading themselves – and their talents – thin. This is especially true when it comes to marketing, which is arguably the most important aspect of any business today. Thankfully, franchising allows you to focus on doing your job without having to spearhead a powerful marketing campaign all by yourself. You’ll certainly have to do your part in terms of promoting your business, but you’ll be backed by proven strategies and tools that will help you attract – and retain – customers and clients.

Avoiding Risk

Stuck in a Financial Rut with Your Career? Buy a Franchise!Entrepreneurship is all about risk – the greater the risk, the greater the reward – but it doesn’t always work out positively. Sometimes the greatest risks lead to the greatest downfalls, and that can make going into business for yourself unattractive. Franchising, however, allows you to enter the world of entrepreneurship without taking on the type of risk that might put you or your family in financial danger. This is not to say that risk is absent from the franchise experience; but you can feel much more confident about moving forward successfully when you bring your talents, dedication and passion to the ideal franchise opportunity!

A Look Into the Future of Senior Care – What’s Around the Corner?

A Look Into the Future of Senior Care – What's Around the Corner?Times seem to be changing more rapidly than ever before, and the senior-care industry is not immune. Technology continues to advance at a blistering rate, and people are living longer lives, which has forced individuals and families to think differently about how they take care of the senior population. Navigating the transforming landscape will be challenging, but we’ve looked ahead to make some predictions about where the elder-care industry will be headed in the next few years.

Let’s have a look!

#1 – A New Ideal

For decades, the automatic response to aging was to investigate nursing-home care. The idea of allowing Mom or Dad to continue living and thriving at home was simply not a viable choice for most families. Today, however, staying at home has become the dominant model for effective senior care. When you look at the amazing benefits that seniors can experience by staying at home, as well as the financial benefits for families, it’s easy to see that the in-home-care model will continue to dominate our industry in the coming decades.

#2 – Technology Rules

Even if seniors don’t embrace the latest technological advances, modern technology will have a major impact on how the elderly live their lives. Technology keeps families and friends connected, plus it can be used to automate various functions of the home, making life much easier for seniors. As time goes by, technology will only become more important, which means that those of us in the senior-care industry will do well to stay on top of the technological wave.

#3 – Living Longer and Living Well

A Look Into the Future of Senior Care – What's Around the Corner?Life expectancies keep rising – seniors are enjoying life after retirement for longer than ever before, and they are taking full advantage of the time that they have available to them. Today’s aging population is youthful and vibrant, and its members are interested in living lives that are filled with fun, adventure and vitality. The desire to live a rich, active and fulfilling life is strong among today’s seniors, and they recognize that they can age more gracefully – and happily – by remaining at home. This means that in-home senior-care providers who furnish opportunities for vibrant, active living will become increasingly attractive to the aging population.

The Future of Senior Care

No one knows for sure what the future will look like, but it’s easy to see where the senior-care industry is going. The nursing-home model is a thing of the past, and seniors are living rich, full, independent lives. This is great news for those of us involved with in-home care!

Buying a Franchise? Follow these Five Tips for Success!

Buying a Franchise? Follow these Five Tips for Success!Buying a franchise is not something to take lightly, especially if it’s your first time going through the process! Purchasing a franchise is like nothing else in the business world – it’s similar to starting or buying your own business, but with the reputation (and expectations) of a successful entity in your corner – which is why you need to make sure you understand some of the lesser-known points about the franchise-purchase process. If you’re ready to buy your own franchise, but you want to ensure that you do so as successfully as possible, use these five franchise tips!

#1 – Know Yourself, Your Skills and Your Interests

Franchises are attractive to many people because they provide a way to jump onboard an already successful business opportunity; however, you shouldn’t just sign up for the most lucrative franchise opportunity you see. Instead, analyze yourself and your passions; then you can determine the type of franchise that will inspire your enthusiasm, which will lead to greater profits (and personal happiness)!

#2 – Use All of The Research Tools You Have Available

These days, there’s no excuse to be uninformed about the details surrounding various franchising opportunities. Perform your due diligence and make sure you take advantage of the Internet, word of mouth, personal inquiries and all other forms of research. You’ll have a much greater chance of hitting the franchise jackpot.

#3 – Pay Attention to Franchise Disclosure Documents (FDDs)

Don’t make the mistake of simply scanning Franchise Disclosure Documents! These documents contain complicated and sometimes confusing language, so you need to ensure that you understand what you’re getting into. Thankfully, attorneys are available to assist new franchisees when it comes to comprehending FDDs.

#4 – Don’t Focus on Just the Short Term or the Long Term
Buying a Franchise? Follow these Five Tips for Success!Operating a franchise is a huge responsibility, which is why you can’t expect to buy, then sit back and watch the money pile up. It takes work and leadership from you, and you need to be sure to have a handle on the day-to-day operations of your business as well as the long-term vision for the franchise. Spending too much time focused on just one of these areas will cause your business to suffer. That’s why selecting a franchise that allows you to apply your vision (and hold your interest) today and years in the future is so important.

#5 – Trust Your Gut

All the research, studying and hard work you perform in the process of selecting and purchasing a franchise is meaningless until you actually make a decision. There will be no easy answers, even if you’ve left no stone unturned in your process. Therefore, you need to be able to trust your instincts. After all, if an opportunity looks amazing on paper, but it just doesn’t feel right in your gut, it’s not one you should pursue.

Transform Your Franchise into a Resource for the Community

Transform Your Franchise into a Resource for the CommunityWhen most people think about the term “marketing,” they’ve got dollars and cents in mind. While it’s important to keep your eyes on the bottom line at all times, marketing can also play a crucial role when it comes to establishing your senior care franchise as a community resource. Following are some ideas to help you maximize revenue while creating a strong local presence for your business.

In the Digital Realm

A recent blog post here discussed how you can use the power of social media to market your franchise effectively. You can also use social media tools like Facebook and Twitter to reach out to people and organizations in your community.

Here’s how:

-Find and follow influential individuals and organizations within your community, then take the time to introduce yourself and interact.

-Promote local events – even those for which your business is not directly involved. This shows that you’re “plugged in” to what’s going on in your area.

-Show what you’re doing to benefit the community. Don’t be shy! If you’re doing good things in your area, people should know about them!

Other digital marketing strategies that can double as excellent community-involvement tactics include using local guest bloggers on your blog or website, performing Search Engine Optimization (SEO) to ensure that you stand out and updating your local business listings on Google, Facebook, Foursquare and Yelp.

In the “Real World”

Becoming a resource for your community is only possible when you actively pursue opportunities to show people in your area who you are. Of course, you’re busy running a business, but you need to remember that part of running any successful business is marketing and local outreach. Thankfully, it doesn’t take that much time to take positive steps toward making your franchise a local mainstay and source of pride.

Here are some ideas you can try outside the digital realm:

Transform Your Franchise into a Resource for the Community-Organize community outreach projects with businesses that are in adjacent industries. For example, you could work with the local clinic or the chiropractor next door to organize a fundraising event that benefits local shelters or food pantries.

-Sponsor the local Little-League team. Kids’ sporting events bring families out of their homes so they can gather together. Be a part of the community bonding that happens by donating money, equipment or uniforms to a local team. You’ll get great publicity, plus you’ll show that you and your business support events that bring people together.

-Send personalized notes. Is there a new business in your zip code? Have you been meeting with potential clients? Do you want to let someone know that you appreciate the work they did for your business? In this era of digital communications, a personalized “thank-you” or “welcome” means more than it ever has, and it can help you establish your business as a true pillar of the community.

Five Essential Tips on Hiring the Best Caregivers for Your Franchise

home-care-franchise


One of the first challenges you’ll face as a senior-care franchisee is the process of hiring help. During the initial stages of your business, you’ll probably find yourself wearing numerous hats – sometimes all of the hats – as your franchise gets off the ground. Eventually, though, there will come a time when it simply makes sense to bring new people on board. The subject of hiring has been addressed previously on the blog (link to: https://franchisewithalwaysbestcare.ca/hiring-staff-for-your-home-care-business/), but it’s important to focus on how you can hire the best caregivers, specifically.

Following are five essential tips on hiring the most qualified and effective caregivers for your senior-care franchise.

  1.  Always Have a Plan
    As a business person, you understand that positive results usually only happen when you have a plan. This goes for hiring caregivers for your franchise, as well. Before you start recruiting, make sure that your business plan accounts for a method of bringing on new staff members. It’s also important to research compensation and benefits packages that will help you attract the best candidates. You might also consider incentive programs that will make it easier for you to attract – and retain – caregivers that truly make a difference.
  2.  Understand Seniors’ Needs
    Do you know what your clients really want and need when it comes to their care? What are they asking for? What kinds of personalities do they respond to? Do you understand the specific challenges associated with your unique group of clients? By analyzing and understanding the distinctive needs of your seniors, you can hire caregivers that align perfectly with the requirements of your client base.
  3.  Cast a Wide Net
    You can certainly save time and money by limiting your advertising and recruiting efforts, but you’re only sabotaging your own business in the long run. Research the best places to advertise for new hires, and take advantage of as many of them as you can. Remember that it’s important to use both traditional media and methods (newspapers, employment and trade publications) and more recent innovations (social media, online forums and job boards, etc.) to make the largest pool of qualified candidates aware of your needs.
  4.  Proper Interview Preparation
    You’ve probably had to prepare for several job interviews over the years as a candidate, but now you find yourself on the other side of the recruitment desk. On this side, it’s just as – if not more – important to prepare properly for interviews. Have questions ready and be poised to answer candidates’ questions about your business accurately and expertly. But remember that it’s important to not keep your nose buried in interview notes while you’re speaking with candidates; this can keep you from noticing when you’ve built an instant rapport with the ideal candidate!
  5. Trust Your Instincts and Training
    You entered the senior-care franchise industry to make a difference in your life and the lives of others. Your instincts have led you to this point. Your training and diligence have helped you lift your business off the ground. When it’s time to hire caregivers, remember the things that have helped you become successful thus far. If you’re prepared well for the process of hiring caregivers, you can rest assured that the instincts and training that have gotten you to this point will also help you find the ideal candidates for your growing business.

Help is on the Way!

Congratulations! You’ve reached the point at which hiring caregivers is the logical next step in the growth of your senior-care business. Getting to this level has required you to build your business intelligently and with a great deal of hard work. Thankfully, hiring caregivers will mean that you won’t have to work quite so hard in the future, which will allow you to concentrate on the next steps for the continuation of your franchise’s growth.

Five Franchise Myths Debunked

senior-care-franchise

 

If you find yourself thinking about new professional opportunities, you will probably perform some research on franchising.  Becoming a franchise owner is attractive because it gives you the best of two professional worlds: the ability to operate your own business independently, but with the support of a successful organization behind you. If you are intrigued by franchising, you may run into some conflicting reports about what it is like to operate your own franchise.  However, it can be difficult decoding myth from reality when it comes to franchise facts.

To help you make the best possible decision for your future, here is a list of some of the more common myths about running your own franchise. These myths only serve to muddy the waters in regards to franchising, and they discourage potential franchise owners from pursuing fulfilling opportunities.

 

 

Franchise Myth #1 – “Most Franchises Fail Within the First Year of Operation”

The first year of operating any business is difficult, and franchises are no exception. However, the fact is that most businesses do, in fact, survive their first year of operation, and less than 40% of businesses fail within the first two years of existence. As long as you go into franchising with a solid plan, sufficient capital and strong financing, you’ll have a solid base with which to begin.

 

Franchise Myth #2 – “There’s No Real Freedom in Franchising”

This myth has persisted for quite a while, even though it is just not true. One of the main reasons people go into business for themselves is to gain more professional freedom. They want to escape the corporate structure, and they think that the presence of corporate backing in a franchise situation is just another way to become a “cog in the machine.” The truth is that you are the real boss in your franchise, regardless of the franchisor you’ve partnered with. You are responsible for decisions impacting advertising, marketing, hiring and managing. Of course, with a franchise, you always have help available, but when it’s your franchise unit, the buck stops with you.

 

Franchise Myth #3 – “There’s No Creativity in Franchising”

Similar to Myth #2, this one assumes that some franchisor representative or policy will stifle any creative decisions made by franchisees. Thankfully, this one is also untrue! Certainly, the franchisor will monitor and guide certain aspects of your business, but those guidelines only exist because they have been proven to boost performance, whether they pertain to uniforms, signs or other facets of the operation. Moreover, many of the best policies that franchisors have implemented have come from the creative suggestions of franchise owners.

 

Franchise Myth #4 – “The Right Franchise Opportunity Doesn’t Exist”

So many people wait for the perfect opportunity, then never actually take any chances. A casual glance at franchise opportunities may reveal that the bulk of professional options exist within just a few industries, but those who scratch a little more deeply under the surface find that franchising opportunities are available for just about every interest, budget and skill level.

 

Franchise Myth #5 – “I Just Can’t Afford a Franchise”

It takes money to buy into a franchise, but it takes an investment of some kind to get into any kind of business, regardless of your level of involvement. Before you dismiss franchise ownership because you’ve heard some figures related to popular mega brands, investigate some of the lesser known industries and you’ll find that some franchises are much more affordable to start than others. The senior home care industry, for example, is rewarding, and the cost of entry is much less than you might expect.

 

Is Franchising the Right Opportunity for You?

Franchising is not ideal for everyone who wants to go into business, but it shouldn’t be discounted because of some persistent myths. For many people, franchise ownership provides the perfect balance between complete autonomy and corporate backing. The lesson here is that there are common myths about franchising that might be keeping you and others from experiencing the perfect professional balance. Don’t let them hold you back any longer!
