Buying a Home Care Franchise

After contacting our team, we’ll schedule an introductory call. During this call, you’ll learn more about our available territories, our process for approving new owners, and the investment required for a Senior Helpers franchise. At the same time, we’ll discuss your personal goals for franchise ownership and how Senior Helpers aligns with these objectives.

After your initial call, we’ll invite you to join us for a Concept Discussion to learn more about the Senior Helpers brand and our franchise offering.

The Concept Discussion is a live, one-hour webinar hosted by a Senior Helpers franchise development specialist. During this webinar, you’ll learn about:

• Our company’s history, mission, and values
• What makes the home care industry so attractive to entrepreneurs
• How Senior Helpers stands apart in the American home care market
• What makes Senior Helpers a uniquely strong franchise offering

Following the Concept Discussion, you’ll be invited to a Training & Operations Discussion, and you will receive a copy of the Franchise Disclosure Document (FDD).

Our Training & Operations Discussion will walk you through the steps for starting your senior care franchise, including the training and support provided by our corporate team. This webinar will give you an overview of operations, staffing, financial planning, and licensing, among other aspects of managing your franchise. At the same time, we’ll walk you through all of the ways that we support you in these areas.

After the Training & Operations Discussion, we’ll invite you to join us for our final webinar, which focuses on marketing and IT systems for your franchise.

Our third and final webinar is our Marketing and IT Discussion, which focuses on how marketing and IT systems can drive new business.  We’ll walk you through the marketing programs and collateral we offer to support lead generation, including commercials, radio spots, local marketing materials, and referral sources. This webinar will also detail how to harness online recruitment and referral sources for caregiver staffing.

Following this webinar, we’ll invite you to contact other Senior Helpers franchise owners to learn more about what to expect as a franchisee.

Before buying your home care franchise, we encourage you to contact other owners in the Senior Helpers franchise family. This will give you the opportunity to hear directly from franchisees about what to expect with a franchise. It also gives you the chance to ask questions about the investment, the opening process, and the day-to-day work of managing a franchise.

After speaking with current franchise owners, candidates are invited to interview with CEO Peter Ross before the final stage in our Discovery Process.

Prior to approval, candidates are invited to speak one-on-one with Senior Helpers CEO Peter Ross. This conversation will provide you with an in-depth understanding of our company’s vision, core values, and direction before purchasing your franchise. It also provides you with a chance to speak with an industry leader who has more than two decades of experience in senior home care.

After this conversation, candidates are considered for approval and invited to “Meet the Team Day” to complete the purchase of their franchise.

The seventh and final step of the Discovery Process is “Meet the Team Day.” Once candidates have been approved, they are invited to visit with our team virtually or in-person at our corporate headquarters in Towson, Maryland. Candidates attend meetings with key members of our executive team, where they will receive a comprehensive overview of each department.

Once all parties have agreed to move forward, the candidate is awarded the franchise and signs the franchise agreement to purchase.

At that point, you can begin training and start preparing to open your franchise!
