Meet Frank, a future Assisted Living Locators franchise owner. We’ll follow Frank as he gets to know the brand and industry, and we’ll be alongside him as he teams with Assisted Living Locators to transform the business and help create a new model for compassionate, honest client care.
Frank’s journey from client to Assisted Living Locator's owner positions him as a key figure and gives him the franchise opportunities in healthcare he’s dreamed of.
Frank has always been drawn to service and community support. His first job was mowing lawns in his neighborhood, and his favorite part of the job was the sense of connection and joy he felt from helping others.
The experience stuck with Frank throughout his early years, and it guided his career choices along the way. He graduated from college with a degree in social work, and he immediately found work at the local state medical center.
The work was good, but Frank felt unfulfilled, as if he could be doing more for his career and his community. Then, when Frank was in his mid-40s, he discovered the potential of becoming an Assisted Living Locators franchise owner, and his life changed.
Like many future Assisted Living Locators franchise owners, Frank first became familiar with the brand when a family member needed assistance with daily tasks. He and his sister searched for a placement service for their aging mother, and they fell in love with the Assisted Living Locators business model.
Frank very quickly recognized the care that Assisted Living Locators put into their work, and he appreciated the empathy and understanding they showed him and his sister. They had begun their search unsure of what to look for, and Assisted Living Locators were the perfect choice to help them learn more about placement.
Placement choices and decisions are often complex, and Frank and his sister were relieved to have an honest partner in the process. They found themselves relying on their local Assisted Living Locators franchise to help them sort through their options and make an informed selection based on what was best for their mother.
Frank was struck by the community spirit and compassion their Assisted Living Locators representative extended to him and his family. And he was blown away by the expert care they received along the way.
Most of all, Frank admired the Assisted Living Locators franchise business model, which worked directly with living facilities and services to remove the burden from the families. It spoke to his love of community service and inspired him to look further into franchise ownership.
Frank began by stepping back and taking a look at the overall industry to review its past growth and future potential. And he was impressed with what he saw.
The U.S. population is aging, and that’s driving steady expansion in the assisted living facilities industry and related markets. The industry has seen a 2.7% compound annual growth rate over the past five years, and that growth is projected to continue and even accelerate over the next five years.
Not only is Assisted Living Locators in an industry on the move, but its business model places it in its own category. Its focus on building networks of top-quality facilities for a wide range of needs aligned with Frank’s outlook on the future of the business.
After digging into the brand and reviewing its Franchise Disclosure Document to learn about the financial and business specifics, Frank was ready to move forward and join Assisted Living Locators as a new franchise owner!
Once he’d made his decision, Frank and the brand got into high gear. They began working together to develop Frank’s franchisee profile and started the process of getting to know each other and determining how well they might work together.
Frank soon met with the brand’s leadership to finalize the onboarding and find the ideal territory for his new business. After that, it was time to train up and start working!
Frank was helped along the way by the Assisted Living Locators franchise team, who put their expertise to work on his behalf. The Assisted Living Locators Integrated Network (ALL-IN) gave him access to the brand’s proprietary, cutting-edge technology, and its comprehensive owner training helped ensure he was prepared for Opening Day.
Today, Frank puts his people skills, compassion, and dedication to community to work every day as a franchise owner with Assisted Living Locators. And he still gets the same joy and sense of connection when he helps a client through difficult times with ethical, caring support.
At Assisted Living Locators, we’re changing lives, one client at a time. We believe that every family deserves honest, expert placement assistance for their loved one, and we designed our business with their needs in mind.
Assisted Living Locators is expanding again, and we’re looking for potential franchise owners to join us.
