Leading Home Care Company to Increase Franchise Presence in South Florida through Strategic Franchise Expansion Initiative

Homewatch CareGivers, a leading home care company domestically and internationally, announced today a strategic plan to expand into Fort Lauderdale through franchising. This plan will allow the company to provide its high quality at-home assistive services to a greater number of clients throughout Florida.

There are currently three offices in the state – Miami, Sarasota and Jacksonville. The strong performance of the existing franchise operations is driving additional expansion, which includes offices opening early-2017 in Palm Harbor (serving Pinellas County) and North Tampa (serving northwestern Hillsborough County).

Now, the Homewatch CareGivers Franchise Support Center is accepting and reviewing franchise inquiries in the Fort Lauderdale area. Ideal Homewatch CareGivers franchisees have a strong passion for helping people and are active members of their communities. They enjoy networking and working collaboratively with others – whether it’s with their clients, their caregivers, office staff or local referral partners and healthcare providers.

In addition to Fort Lauderdale, Homewatch CareGivers is also targeting attractive Florida markets such as Tampa – St. Petersburg – Clearwater, Orlando, West Palm Beach and Port St. Lucie. Currently, there are over 200 Homewatch CareGivers franchise units across 34 states domestically, as well as in Canada, Central America and South America.

“We are eager to grow our Homewatch CareGivers franchising family in Fort Lauderdale,” said Chip Baranowski, director of franchise development for Homewatch CareGivers. “We want our home care services available to anyone who may need assistive care and connecting with suitable franchisees here is key for making this happen. We are confident with our prospects in the area and are looking forward to moving ahead here.”

Homewatch CareGivers provides home care services for families arranging care for senior-aged loved ones and others living with chronic illnesses, convalescing after illness or surgery or who prefer to age in their own homes under the supervision and care of highly trained caregivers. Homewatch CareGivers is widely known for providing reliable, convenient services for the elderly and families of those in need.

Homewatch CareGivers strives to provide best-in-class support for its franchisees. The home office has a unique support system in place for its franchisees. In addition to its proven model, the home office works closely with each franchisee to establish a 52-week Business Implementation Plan (BIP), which addresses areas that are needed for a franchisee to run a high-quality, successful operation in their first year.

Additionally, new owners are coached through a Market Action Plan (MAP) with focused training on client acquisition, networking and strategies for community outreach, as well as creating detailed and individualized marketing plans. The home office, which is also referred to as the company’s Franchise Support Center, provides an ideal model that each franchisee can easily roll out in their respective markets, and the team offers subject-matter expert advice to help their franchisees seamlessly find success on a localized level.

“Our support system is what sets us apart from other concepts in the industry,” said Julie Smith, president and COO of Homewatch CareGivers. “We’ve worked hard to perfect the system in order to provide a way for each franchisee to seamlessly increase their client base and revenue, as well as increase their quality of life. We believe this system will work very well for the entrepreneurially spirited individuals in Fort Lauderdale who are interested in beginning their journey with us.”

The estimated initial investment for a Homewatch CareGivers franchise ranges from $87,000 to $137,400, which includes a franchisee fee of $49,000. Interested individuals must also have a minimum net worth of $350,000 and $50,000 liquid capital to ensure additional funding is available while launching their franchise.
