In safe hands

Five reasons for becoming a Heritage Healthcare franchisee in 2020

Deciding to open and run a franchise is a big step and requires a huge commitment.

There are a range of comparisons between building a business from scratch and buying into an established brand. Here are five reasons why you’re in safe hands with Heritage Healthcare over opening your own home care business from scratch:

1. A ready-made business

The Heritage Healthcare business model is a proven success. The blueprint is in place, ready and waiting for you to launch your home care business.

The advantage of joining a franchise is that you have the benefit of being steps ahead of someone starting a business from scratch. The support team and fellow franchisees have already experienced most possibilities, so they can advise on the best route of action.

2. Access to an experienced support team

With a combined 80 years of experience within the care industry, the Heritage Healthcare franchising support team have a wealth of knowledge. The head office houses the company’s directors, marketing department and finance department.

On the road is Heritage Healthcare’s franchise support team, who visit each office and help in any way they can to support franchisees in making their business successful. All members of the support team are at the end of the phone and can help with any situation.

3. A well-known brand

Heritage Healthcare is an established brand and household name within the home care industry. The franchise network has worked hard to deliver expert home care within their territories, so many areas around the UK are familiar with the dedicated care services provided. The network is award winning and consistently at the top of home care ratings, with positive reviews from clients.

Rather than starting from the beginning and spending significant time building a reputation, you benefit from your clients already knowing what to expect from the Heritage Healthcare brand.

4. Supportive training

The Heritage Healthcare franchise package offers comprehensive training and development to start you off on the right track. A 10-day induction course ensures you have a thorough understanding of all aspects of the business, including recruitment and employment law, financial training, care certificate training and marketing. Training is hosted at Heritage Healthcare’s head office, so franchisees have the chance to meet each support team member and take a look at what happens behind the scenes.

5. Endless rewards

Owning your own business gives you control. The work you put into the business is what you get out of it, but with a Heritage Healthcare franchise you are fully supported, rather than going it alone. You can manage your workplace culture, making your business the kind you always wanted to work in. Owning a home care business in itself is incredibly rewarding, as you get to reap the intrinsic benefits of making a significant difference to those within your local community.
