Competition:

There are several local, regional, and nationwide elder care service providers and a variety of senior care centers and assisted living facilities. Families are seeking different solutions and like to research and investigate before making a decision. Word of mouth, reputation, and referrals are key to gaining client trust and engagements. The quality of the service is the main discriminator followed by the variety of services and the reliable communications.

Potential Growth:

The business does not utilize a marketing campaign and devotes only the minimal required budget towards advertising and yet still generates over $600k/year in sales. There is opportunity for a better marketing plan to increase general brand awareness. Other areas of growth include networking among the various senior care medical practitioners in the area. Informational campaigns, such as through social media, are under-utilized and could open a great deal of new sales. Additional areas of growth to consider are:

1. Payer Relationships- increased access to Medicare programs.
2. Referral Networks- companies that share common marketplace demographics and who supplement or compliment the services you provide.
3. Tech Tools- incorporating technology to improve communications and engagements while also distinguishing your services above others.
4. Home health support for senior patients with chronic conditions.
5. Greater involvement in home treatment non-medical programs.
6. Data tracking and information gathering to qualify for certain Medicare programs.
7. Support for medical equipment use, training, and assistance.
8. Demographics population is continually increasing.
