Could you run a home care Agency franchise? The answer might surprise you.

Today’s post shares 5 facts about the average Executive Care owner that show how accessible our opportunity truly is.

Executive Care owners love their work

You can’t fake passion. Nor can you teach it. If you aren’t truly passionate about helping seniors in your community, then this isn’t the home care agency franchise for you.

But that’s not to say you have to be passionate hands-on caregiving. You can do plenty of good for your community by finding qualified caregivers for families in need, or supporting America’s homecare infrastructure as a multi-unit investors.

Does the comfort, safety, independence, and quality of life of older adults matter to you? Do you want to make a difference? Executive Care can help.

Not all home care agency franchise owners are “active”

Whether you’re looking for an engaging day-to-day career or a more passive investment, Executive Care has a proven system in place.

We offer 3 business models:

Single Unit Owner

Multi-Unit Owner

Semi-Absentee/Investor/Executive Model

You don’t have to be a millionaire to open a home care agency franchise

Given our brand reputation and the level of support we offer franchisees, many people are surprised at just how little it costs to start a home care agency franchise with Executive Care. Contrary to popular belief, you don’t have to be a millionaire: typical initial investments range between $99,650 and $161,900.

Discounts are available. We proudly participate in the International Franchise Association’s (IFA) VetFran program by offering veterans a 20% discount on the initial territory fee.

Multi-unit owners save even more money. Second territories franchise fees are reduced to $35,900 and Third territories are reduced to $29,500.

Most Executive Care franchisees had no prior healthcare experience

You may think that you need a degree or certification in healthcare before starting a home care agency franchise, but that’s simply not the case. In fact, some of our most successful franchisees started with our company without any healthcare skills or experience.

This works for two reasons:

First, as mentioned previously, some investors choose to take a semi-absentee role, focusing on executive-level decision-making that distances them from frontline care duties. Likewise, some single unit owners simply choose to focus on business management and hire qualified staff to handle the hands-on caregiving.

However, those who want to get involved in caregiving will always have that option, thanks to our powerful training system. Our individualized training program focuses on the skills you need using a combination of in-class instructionals, hands-on workshops, and on-site coaching.

Some Executive Care owners had never owned businesses before

Over the years, we’ve found that successful candidates possess the following qualities:

Strong leadership ability

Readiness to learn

Passion to succeed

Exceptional time-management skills

Ability to multitask

Commitment to the senior care mission

Dedication to community

You’ll find that “business ownership experience” is not on the list. While it certainly helps, no prior experience is needed. As mentioned previously, our training covers all you need to know to succeed in this industry, and our proprietary business management software creates major advantages in scheduling, time and attendance management, billing, payroll, customer relations management, and more. Additionally, we offer constant opportunities for continuing education.
