Why Franchising?

As a prospective business owner, you may be asking yourself: Should I start my own independent business or buy into a franchise system?

Owning a franchise allows you to operate within an established business model. Unlike an independent business, franchisees can enjoy the resources, relationships and support already built into their company instead of starting from scratch.

Running a franchise is incredibly similar to owning your own small business. However, there are many advantages of franchising that do not typically accompany small-business ownership. Franchise owners actually get to experience the independence of owning a business without taking on all of the risks and expenses that come with startup companies. Learn about the differences between owning a franchise versus owning a business and see how franchising can help you reach your business goals.

Advantages of Owning a Franchise

Franchising may provide a lot of benefits that starting a small, privately owned business does not. While owning a franchise is an investment just like owning a small business, there is a lot less uncertainty that goes with it. Franchise owners can be their own boss within a proven business model, saving themselves the time, cost and risk of starting with an unknown name. 

Franchising is becoming a more competitive resource for business owners in the home care industry. Because the demand for senior care services is quickly increasing, home care franchise owners are in a unique position to grow alongside their business. As you decide what your professional future holds, consider the pros of franchising with a nationally recognized brand like HomeWell, such as:

Perhaps the biggest benefit to working as a franchise owner instead of starting from scratch is that you will already have a base following. HomeWell is a well-recognized name all around the country, and when you set up one of our franchises in your community, people will immediately know what services you’re offering. Combined with the trust your community already has in you, it gives you a leg up finding caregivers and clients alike.

Franchise opportunities generally have unexpected out-of-pocket costs for you, as you can collaborate with vetted suppliers.

Owning a franchise gives you the freedom to work your way. You make your own schedule and decide what kind of manager you want to be. The difference in working with a franchise is that you still have support to help you grow your business.

Our business coaching offers you all the knowledge you need to launch a successful franchise. As you open for business and manage the day-to-day things, our team will be a phone call away. While your franchise is yours to run, we strive to always stay available to answer your questions and give you constant growth opportunities.

Owning a Franchise vs. Starting Your Own Business

Though franchise ownership is similar to starting your own business, franchising has certain unmatched perks. Often, franchises are attractive to business owners because of the support and established processes that are available to the franchisees. Starting a business may take years of planning, budgeting and hiring to make a profit. Franchise owners can get started at an established company and enjoy peace of mind as they learn to help it grow.

More and more business owners are choosing to franchise so they can create a lasting impact on their community without the stress of building a startup. When you own a HomeWell franchise, you even get directed training for every layer of the business. Our franchisees have grown remarkably in the industry because they have access to a strong network of resources. By taking advantage of the opportunities afforded by franchising, our network’s members have accomplished countless personal and professional goals.

When you become a HomeWell franchise owner, you can enjoy:

  • Essential services: As the number of seniors entering retirement increases, the home care industry is expected to grow exponentially.
  • Community involvement: Senior care prioritizes the health and safety of our retired community, and our franchise owners are a crucial component of this involvement.
  • Strong industry trends: As the world adjusts to new trends that allow people to remain at home while receiving important services, such as telemedicine, home care offers new business opportunities.

I have never owned a business and know my weaknesses. I wanted the support of a proven business formula. Why reinvent the wheel when it’s been done?

Tracie Dominguez HomeWell Franchisee in Colorado Springs, Colorado

We recognized the value of a system that is already working and where processes are already developed.  We can leverage the expertise of the franchisor in areas to complement our strengths.  We also see a lot of value in the network of fellow franchisees for sharing of best practices.

The HomeWell franchise community is a great group of people that have open discussion, work to help one another, and maintain a healthy amount of friendly competition. I am glad to be a part of this group.

Josh Frommer HomeWell Franchisee in Anchorage, Alaska

The biggest factor for us in choosing to do a franchise instead of launching a business on our own was really the wealth of knowledge HomeWell provides. We could have gone the route of figuring everything out on our own, but we decided that the training, support, and knowledge the HomeWell team provides was worth the investment.

I love how organized HomeWell is—from its structure to its programs. They know what works and have a step-by-step plan, which removes the ‘guessing game’ that business ownership can feel like at first.

Patricia King HomeWell Franchisee in Glendale, Arizona
