Meeting franchise candidates is a truly fascinating part of my job. No two prospective franchisees have a similar background or identical professional experience that brought them to owning a home care business or that makes them a stronger candidate versus others. This means that we have an incredibly diverse group of franchisees, who bring a world of different work histories and knowledge to their business that can benefit them and their clients in unexpected and meaningful ways, much like other franchise concepts.
Learn more about a few of our franchise owners to see what I mean:

Greg Wann spent most of his adult working life with Disney before he left corporate life for a non-profit so he could make a difference in other people’s lives.

Read about Greg’s path to home care business ownership in Entrepreneur and the Florida Business Observer.
Malcolm Junior cared for soldiers and their families during a career with the U.S. Army before realizing that he wanted to use his passion for a business of his own.

If you are thinking about owning your own business, think past your last job and know that there is no particular career that might make you the ideal candidate for owning a home care franchise today.
