5 Ways to Market Your In-Home Senior Care Services During the Holidays

Marketing During the Holidays

It’s that time of the year again! The shopping spirit is in the air, and small businesses are dreaming of big sales, of willing buyers with open wallets. However, none of that is a guarantee. Strategic marketing is needed to leverage the festivities for improved sales during the Holidays.

Remember, too, that at this time of the year, consumers are crushing under a barrage of marketing messages. If you provide in-home senior care services, your strategy should, therefore, cut through the clutter and reach the right people where they are.

Here are some excellent holiday marketing techniques for home care services:

1. Find a holiday angle to your services

The holiday feeling is about sharing and caring, and that ties in well with the nature of your senior care business. Currently, friends and family gather to share the love, and there is no better time to deliver an infomercial on your top care services.

Create a thoughtful, inspiring, and heartfelt video on the beauty of in-home senior care and how it enhances the quality of life for the elderly and their families. For example, do a video directed at family caregivers that could use a break to be “just family members” this holiday season. You offer to supplement in a few days to a couple of weeks of service and while you assist with ADL’s and medication reminders, they can focus on their family.

Be sure to share this on your social media pages, promote it on YouTube and email to local community reps. Be prepared to answer questions especially if families are bringing loved ones home from long-term care facilities and need extra help. Learn the ‘vacation’ rules for Medicaid and Medicare coverage to provide extra peace of mind.

2. Get your clients involved

The best holiday messaging should tell the story of happiness and overcoming challenges. If you have clients willing to testify for the excellent quality of your care services, ensure to leverage that. Self-proclamation and inflationary claims don’t accomplish as much as user testimonies do.

You can send out these personal client stories through email, publish them as a series of social media posts, on flyer distribution, or online video. Don’t forget to thank your clients, their families, and everyone involved, wishing them happy holidays and include a call to action. For example, they may have family in town for the holidays so offer additional hours of care so they can enjoy their company and not put them to work or worry about things that need to get done.

3. Give away something meaningful

Let your business reflect the giving that embodies this holiday season. Your current and potential clients expect to be treated this time of year. Promotions can help you break through the market even when you are just starting out.

Your holiday promotion this year can be informed of surprise gifts for the families of your existing clients, discounts to past clients or prospects, or a community senior fun event. You can also partner with other non-competitor brands, health services providers, churches, and other organizations in spreading seniors love this holiday season. Just ensure that there is an awareness value for your business in that arrangement.

Holiday gifting helps to:

  • Spread awareness
  • Increase brand love and deepen brand loyalty
  • Increase the number of referrals

4. Add a festive holiday appeal to your website

It’s a new digital age that we are living in. Pew Research reports that 70 % of seniors go online and use digital services. The inventor of the Web, Tim Berners Lee, is himself a baby boomer, and that shows that the elderly don’t live in a faradays cage of sorts. And if the seniors are not that internet savvy, at least their kids and supporters are.

This holiday season your social media pages and website should be extra interactive full of thank you messages and best wishes. Your landing pages should be holiday-themed. Your entire site needs to be current and informative, enjoyable and assuring of the legitimacy and professionalism of your services.

5. Get out, be part of the community and build a dependable referral program

Unlike most other businesses, an in-home senior care business mostly thrives on referrals. You will find that more than half of your quality client introductions come from health service providers. Introductions from community leaders and local organizations can also give you the leap you desire.

Ensure, therefore, to engage with these people often, more so this holiday season, and offer them incentives/gifts as an appreciation for their leads. Remember to also keep in touch with clients and caregivers through postcards or greetings cards this holiday season.

Don’t let your senior care business miss out on the growth potential of the holiday cheer. Follow the above simple marketing during the holiday strategies and watch your business grow.

A Place At Home Opens its 10th Location

Innovative senior care company continues to expand.

A Place At Home opened its doors in North Texas on Monday, October 14th. It is the tenth APAH location to open its doors nationwide. APAH has launched other franchise locations in Austin, TX, Colorado, Michigan, California, Oregon, Arizona, Arkansas, and Papillion, Nebraska. The corporate headquarters is located in Omaha, Nebraska.

Founders Jerod Evanich and Dustin Distefano opened APAH in 2012. Both men shared a passion for making changes in senior care. They created a continuum of care model to ensure APAH would be a true solution, rather than just another home care agency. This model includes four service lines which are in-home care, care coordination, senior living alternatives, and staffing.

A widely positive response led to exponential growth, ultimately culminating in the decision to open franchising opportunities across the nation. The first new franchise opened its doors in 2017 in South Denver with owners George and Grace Bradley.

This year Evanich and Distefano celebrated their tenth location by launching the First Annual Franchise Convention, where they brought all of their new franchise owners together, giving them an opportunity to socialize and benefit from a number of seminars.

“It’s the first of many milestones for the franchise system,” said Evanich. 

“The growth we’ve seen since 2017, and hosting our first annual franchise convention, is a significant turning point for our brand. We’ve gone nationwide, and are in discussion with a prospect to potentially go international in order to reach more seniors in need of our services,” adds Distefano.

Evanich said they focus on finding the right people to expand their brand. “More and more entrepreneurs are looking for meaningful business opportunities, as well as a quality service model they can stand behind.”

APAH Convention: First of Many Great Things to Come

A Place At Home hosted its First Annual Franchise Convention on September 26-28, 2019 at 1415-The Meeting Space in Omaha, Nebraska. We welcomed a powerful group of franchisees, sponsors and speakers from across the country for three days of engaging events, information and networking.

The festivities kicked off with a Welcome Reception at Wilson & Washburn, sponsored by INSPRO and Ideal Payroll Service. Franchisees from Colorado, California, Arizona, Oregon, Arkansas, Texas and Nebraska were able to meet for the first time or catch up with old friends from their APAH training week.

During the convention, President of A Place At Home, Jerod Evanich, welcomed everyone and discussed APAH’s roots. He surprised the group with a video message from Paula Howard, one of the original three founders of APAH. She shared that though she’s retired now, she is so proud of the growth APAH has seen under the leadership of Dustin and Jerod and wished everyone success in their own franchises.

The day was filled with thoughtful and engaging speakers from Hurricane Marketing Enterprises, Clear Care, Volpe Consulting & Accounting Services, and Home Care Compliance. The closing presentation was given by CEO of A Place At Home, Dustin Distefano. Dustin shared statistics on where the company is today and what goals we plan to accomplish going into next year.

After the convention, the team gathered at Get Out: Omaha where they split into two teams and had 60 minutes to get out of a live-action escape room. Both teams made it out with time, even just seconds, to spare! Buzzing with victory, everyone gathered at Upstream Brewing Company for the Awards Dinner sponsored by Volpe Consulting & Accounting Services, to celebrate the success over the past year. The following awards were presented:

New Franchise Will Allow Many North Texas Seniors to Stay at Home

Senior Care Franchise in Allen

A Place At Home Brings an Innovative In Home Senior Care Model to North Texas

Joe Christie and his wife Janis have been awarded the right to open a new A Place At Home Franchise serving Allen, Plano, Frisco, and McKinney, Texas.

A Place At Home opened in 2012 in Omaha, NE. Each franchise offers a range of customized senior-care services designed to help seniors stay in their homes as long as possible. This includes a wide range of customizable in-home solutions and care coordination assistance services. When it is no longer safe or viable for the senior to live at home, APAH offers free transition counseling and placement services to help get seniors into the right assisted living facility. 

Janis comes to the role with a long history of providing assistance to individuals and families. She’s been working at a non-profit that provides families in need with food, clothes, and school supplies. She has also worked with Meals on Wheels, where she got to know many seniors. 

Joe is a former VP of sales who worked in the hospitality industry for over 20 years. “I have experience providing clients with outstanding customer service and attention to detail.” He also assisted in launching a company-sponsored national food drive in conjunction with the Aidmatrix Foundation and Second Harvest Food Bank.

They both chose to transition into senior care for personal reasons.

“My mother was ill for many years,” says Janis. “My father was caring for her, but he needed assistance with her care. He didn’t know how to find it, or where. He had to work his way through the difficult process of balancing my mother’s needs with his own by himself.”

Joe adds, “Watching two loved ones struggle with age-related illnesses brought awareness that seniors and their families need assistance. My mother’s husband was bed-ridden and she was left to care for them both, despite having neither the skill nor the stamina, to do so.”

Joe adds that a social worker contacted him one afternoon to inform him that his father’s Alzheimer’s disease had left him unable to care for himself. “I was named his guardian. I had very little understanding of what this entailed, so it took me weeks to sort through the responsibilities or make any progress with his care. Needing so much help, and being unable to find it, was an eye-opener for me.”

“We want to make a difference for both seniors, and their families,” said Janis

Joe adds that he’s impressed by A Place at Home because it offers a continuum of care model that’s affordable, adaptable, and well-coordinated. 

Co-founders Jerod Evanich and Dustin Distefano have a mission to make sure this level of care is available across the entire nation. That’s why they decided to start franchising. They look for professionals who share their core values, nicknamed the “C.A.R.E.” model. C.A.R.E. stands for Compassionate, Accountable, Respectful, and Ethical. 

“Joe and Janis truly model our C.A.R.E. values and we look forward to watching them apply these high standards across their new franchise,” said Distefano.

ABOUT A PLACE AT HOME

New Senior Care Option Now Available in Papillion

Senior Care Franchise in Papillion

Renowned Senior Focused Care Solutions Company, A Place At Home, Awards New Senior Care Franchise in Papillion

Rick and Kris Perkins have cared about the safety of Larimer County and Douglas County residents for a long time.

Rick is a former counselor and manager who spent 20 years with Child and Adult Protective Services, as well as serving as Program Coordinator for the Juvenile Assessment Center. Kris is a former 911 dispatcher and EMT, and worked in sales and deployment roles for Motorola Solutions, Inc. where she deployed public safety software across the United States.

Now this husband-and-wife team is turning their attention to senior care issues by opening a new A Place at Home franchise in Papillon, NE. The APAH innovative care model has been wildly successful because it tailors senior care solutions to the needs of individual seniors and their families. 

Each franchise offers a wide range of in-home care services, care coordination services, and senior living placement and transition services.

The Omaha-based company has experienced explosive growth all over the country after its launch in 2012. 

The Papillion franchise will open at 10791 S. 72nd St., Suite #104 in Papillion, and will also serve Bellevue, Offutt, Ralston, Chalco, La Vista, Council Bluffs, and Center Lake.

The couple came to this decision after seeing the challenges for care and living transition for Rick’s 97-year old grandmother. “Helping seniors age in their own homes has become a passion for me,” he says.

“We chose A Place at Home after completing a market analysis on multiple franchises in the home care industry,” adds Kris. “We quickly realized that the men who created A Place at Home truly cared about what they were doing, and why. And we felt the four core values of the APAH C.A.R.E. philosophy—Compassionate, Accountable, Respectful, and Ethical—align with our own personal values.”

The main goal of A Place at Home is to help seniors stay in their homes as long as it is a safe, viable option. Transitions to senior care centers are offered as a free option when an APAH’s services simply won’t suffice any longer.

“We understand enlisting the help of professionals to care for loved ones is a tough decision to make,” said Rick. “We want to be able to relieve some of the stress on families when they’re faced with that decision. We want you to know we’ll treat your family like we’d treat our own family. And we want to ease the stress of the transition to an assisted living facility, when the time comes.”

To A Place at Home founders, Jerod Evanich and Dustin Distefano, awarding franchises to the right people is an important part of fulfilling their mission: “To be passionate professionals providing the compassionate care solutions you need, when and where you need us.” 

“It always starts with a conversation,” stresses Jerod. “We only want to work with people who are truly in alignment with the C.A.R.E. philosophy. If your personal values already rest on that foundation then we’re happy to help you parlay your professional background and acumen into becoming a successful A Place At Home owner.”

5 Business-Busting Mistakes to Avoid

Launching your own business is a life-changing endeavor. Once you take that leap of faith – you are journeying towards building your own legacy and attaining that highly sought after all-American dream.

Just as with anything rewarding in life, business ownership doesn’t come without challenges – especially during the initial start-up phase. Paying due diligence and proactively preparing for any potential bumps in the road will prevent disastrous, business-ending obstacles and lead you on a path to success.

1. Choosing the Wrong Partners

Value your intuition, do background checks and add the right skills. Before partnering, thorough due diligence, and careful business planning, is always required. Almost automatically, you may plan on going into business with spouse, family or old friends. Stop to consider whether they have what your business needs. If they’re partially funding your new venture, you could consider making them silent partners. Another avenue would be creating an employee relationship, to get the expertise needed, without giving away part of your company. Hire or partner with trusted people, who have skills that complement yours, rather than needlessly duplicating your talents.

When you do begin partnerships (or hire key employees/managers), it is crucial that you create a clear, documented division of responsibilities to prevent misunderstandings that could destroy your company down the road. Remember, you need partners that will commit to their role, share your vision for success and have the positive attitude to help you get there.

2. Going It Alone on Business Decisions

Use a board of directors, business coach or mentor, to help bring balance, objectivity and required expertise to your decision making. If you make crucial decisions alone, or with a like-minded co-founder,  you can become trapped in an echo chamber. You may be “too close” to the business to see the best solution. However, you can certainly be the final word and key decision-maker. Make sure this, along other partner duties/expectations, is documented when starting your company.

3. Ignoring Competitors and Customer Feedback

Monitor competitors closely, so you can clearly differentiate your company and lead the market. Excel at what they lack and promote/advertise your uniqueness to win customers! Furthermore, seek customer feedback and monitor online discussions. This protects your reputation and provides useful Intel to help shape your products/services going forward.

4. Not Establishing Customer Personas

Know your target market(s) well. Create customer personas for each unique market segment that would benefit from your services. Each persona gives you a representative customer/prospect to “speak to” in your advertising, blog posts and social media content. The persona can include demographic information, like age, gender and income level. Flesh out the personas with as much detail as possible, including each persona’s goals, preferences and problems they need to solve.

5. Not Being Financially Prepared

Be sure to have enough money to cover your initial business start-up costs, including capital expenditures like supplies,vehicles and/or equipment. You’ll also need operating funds to keep your business going until initial customers come your way. Additionally, it is crucial that you set aside funds for future, often unforeseen issues that can come up in a new business. This helps ensure that your new business can survive until it begins to thrive.

Austin, Texas Gains New Senior Care Option

Austin families struggling to find appropriate senior care options may soon be able to breathe easy. A Place at Home, an Omaha, NE-based senior-focused care company, is opening its first Texas franchise here. Residents of Austin, Round Rock, Cedar Park, Georgetown, Leander, Liberty Hill, and Hutto will be able to request services as early as July 15, 2019.

To make sure he can serve his customers to the utmost, franchise owner Paul Walton is currently scouting a centrally-located office location.

APAH offers a continuum of senior-focused care services. These include in-home companion care, home care, personal care, and medication services. Families may also take advantage of care coordination services such as healthcare advocacy and navigation, transition assistance, and medication management.

When seniors are ready to transition from their home to a senior living community, APAH offers a no-cost consultation service. Our Senior Living Advisors are highly knowledgeable in the senior living landscape and offer personalized service and trusted referrals to families who might otherwise be overwhelmed by the process of finding the next place to call home.

“I decided to team up with A Place at Home because of the growing need for quality senior care,” says Walton.” More people are retiring right now than at any time in our nation’s history, and that means there’s the potential for some serious gaps to form in terms of providing seniors with quality healthcare.”

This is especially prominent in the Austin area. A Place At Home keeps people living at home, wherever their home may be, providing families another option.

Walton says he chose APAH in particular because he resonated with the company values.

A Place at Home’s core values is embodied in the We are CARE philosophy. CARE stands for “Compassionate, Accountable, Respectful, and Ethical.”

“Families are the cornerstone of our communities and my mission is to strengthen our communities by delivering on these core values to families in the Austin area,” says Walton.

He noted that healthcare professionals appreciate the continuum of care the APAH model offers to their patients. “Providers are confident when giving A Place at Home as an option to continue the highest quality care for their patients in their own home.”

Walton brings plenty of experience to his new role. He has a B.S. in Behavioral Neuroscience, as well as a wide range of experience spanning multiple industry verticals. He’s been a firefighter, a lifeguard, and a first responder. He then went on to enter the Enterprise Rent-a-Car management training program. It’s recognized as one of the premier management training programs in the nation.

Walton’s time at Enterprise gave him the foundation he needed to enjoy repeated success in business, a skill that will be of great value when building his new senior-focused care business.

Other industries where Walton has spent time include Pharmaceutical, Finance, I.T., Sales & Marketing Consultancy, and e-Commerce. He has also launched several other ventures.

“A Place At Home is proud to partner with such an experienced professional,” says Jerod Evanich, Co-Founder and Head of Development at APAH’s corporate offices. “But more than that, we’re proud to partner with someone who has dedicated his life to embodying the principles we value.”

Are You An Ideal Franchise Partner?

Many entrepreneurs looking for a new business venture choose to invest in franchising due to the proven systems, demonstrated success and support that a franchise system can offer. However, being a franchisee isn’t for everyone – this type of business ownership requires a unique mix of qualities, skills, and aspirations in order to succeed.

At A Place at Home, we consider candidates with a variety of experiences and backgrounds, and we seek franchisees who will be a strong representative of our brand. A Place at Home franchisees often share these similar qualities:

Passion for Giving Back to the Community

Ideal owners should possess a passion to own a senior-focused care company that largely stems from personal experience of caring for those who need care.  This can include those who have a background in the medical or senior care field; been impacted by a senior; possess the desire to be part of a movement to provide a higher level of senior care; or someone looking for a career change that will make a difference in the quality of life of others.

Background in Business and Management

Franchisees should be able to give direction and handle the responsibilities of management, delegation, and leadership, as franchisees own and run their own franchise location. As a franchisee, you are in charge of your own business, but you will still benefit from the support of a franchisor, meaning it’s important for franchise owners to have a mix of skills typically held by an employee, and also a boss.

Innate Ability to Network and Build Relationships

While passion and experience are important factors for business success, the ability to connect with others and build meaningful business relationships is essential to the overall growth of your business. It is especially important in the senior care business to be out in the community. Whether it’s marketing at assisted living facilities or participating in community events – if you are able to create a partnership authentically, then you have the capability to propel your business to the next level.

Goal-Oriented and Driven to Succeed

As a franchise partner, you will gain immediate access to 40-hours of hands-on training and ongoing support, but ultimately, you have to execute the business plan. To do that, you need to have an internal drive to take not only your career, but your business to the next level.

Willingness to Follow a Proven System

Franchisees must follow the processes and systems that a franchisor has in place, which is why candidates who possess the traits of a dedicated employee are often approved. Veterans, in particular, excel in franchising, as their military training often enables them to be mission-focused and to run their business with respect for and understanding of rules and regulations.

Align With Philosophy

The “We are CARE” (Compassionate, Accountable, Respectful, Ethical) philosophy should align with your own personal objectives and a willingness to incorporate these values into their everyday role as A Place At Home franchise owners as well as everyday interactions with clients and their team. There should be an innate desire to network and build relationships within the community with the intent to grow the business and take on competitors while constantly driving to greatness.
