Before you apply, we’re happy to share basic details about the territory you’re interested in, such as which geographic areas the territory covers and start-up costs for new territories. After you apply, we can discuss further details of the territory, such as senior population, demographics, and more.
When you inquire about a specific territory, you’ll speak directly with the franchise development manager for that territory. They are credible resources to help you explore the franchise opportunity and get the information you need to decide if this opportunity is right for you.
How are territories determined?
Each Home Instead Senior Care franchise has a protected, exclusive territory determined by the number of potential clients it contains. In the 20+ years we have been franchising, we believe that the two main keys to a successful franchise are the right owner and a minimum number of seniors over the age of 65 and that geographic size of the territory and socio-economic factors are less important.
We’re proud of the extent of support we’re able to provide our franchise owners. We have over 22 years of experience and more than 150 staff members at the Home Instead, Inc. Home Office to help you run your business efficiently. You’ll have the support of our operational and technical support teams to coach you through any business and technology questions you may have. Support is available to you 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
Will I be trained to run my Home Instead Senior Care franchise?
Every new owner starts with pre-training assistance to prepare for a week-long training class held at our global headquarters in Omaha, Nebraska. Each owner is then assigned a regional business team to coach them through the critical start-up phase and as they grow throughout their tenure as a Home Instead Senior Care franchise owner.
We also provide specialized coaching tailored specifically for owners who are starting a new franchise as well as owners buying an existing franchise.
Beyond this individualized training, we provide many learning opportunities with our annual convention, field training, owner accountability groups and webinars.
What kind of owner is Home Instead Senior Care looking for?
We know that our proven business model works, so finding the right type of owner is very important to us. They come from all walks of life and backgrounds, but we only award franchises to those who are willing to be involved in the business full-time. Also, while we can teach you to run a unique senior care business, our owners also must have a passion to make a difference in the lives of the elderly.
