Home Care Assistance Franchise

Our pilot office had gross sales of $776,661 during its first year of operations and $1,932,911 during the second year.

Recently, Entrepreneur boasted that senior care is the hottest franchise idea for 2004. The authors explain that the senior opportunity is only in its first inning, and dramatic explosive growth is still to come in the decade ahead.

Home Care Assistance Franchise is uniquely positioned in the industry to take advantage of the senior market. It is based on a new, powerful business concept. This focus results in greater profits per client and shorter time to profitability.

Why Home Care Assistance Franchise?

Unique concept. Home Care Assistance Franchise has a unique business concept. We target consumers who need 24 hour, 7 days a week, live-in home care. This under-served market segment consists of people who have chronic, low level health problems, but who are also quite capable of living at home, well into the future. They simply need additional support to live independently.

Distinctive brand identity. We are so committed to building brand equity as the 24/7 Live-In Specialists that we secured a nationwide phone number for consumers to call who need our service: 1-866-4-LiveIn. We trademarked a name for this service: In Home Assisted Living® , and we are the only company in the industry to offer an exclusive We Will Be There® Guarantee.

Short time to profits. The advantages of focusing on 24 hour, 7 days a week live-in services are two fold. First, we provide a much needed service for seniors who wish to live independently and avoid moving into nursing homes. And second, the 24/7 live-in services generate greater revenues per client and hence a dramatic compression in time to profitability.

No dominant national brand. According to The Wall Street Journal, general awareness of the average franchised home care agency is less than 1%. This is the Home Care Assistance Franchise opportunity.
