As people get older they begin thinking about the type of legacy they will leave behind, for their children, grandchildren, friends, neighbors, and even their community. August is What Will Your Legacy Be Month and it’s a good time to consider this, especially if you’re looking to own a home care franchise or some other business.
How could a home care franchise strengthen your legacy?
People who often get invested in home care services do so because they want to make a positive difference in the lives of others. The most common population relying on in-home care support are seniors, but disabled adults of just about any age can also benefit from support on a regular basis.
There is heated and ongoing debate across the country about just how much these home care aides get paid. It’s not the type of job that’s going to make someone rich. Even the vast majority of people who own a home care agency or franchise are not deluded into thinking they will become millionaires by doing this type of work. They are providing a service and many of them had a parent, grandparent, or other individual in their family who relied on this type of support (or who would have benefitted).
What makes a home care franchise investment a good legacy?
Not only will you -as the owner of a home care franchise- be helping elderly and disabled adults who need assistance at home throughout your community, when you build a strong business and great relationships throughout that community, you may eventually have something to hand down to your children or grandchildren. Even if they don’t want anything to do with this business in 10, 20, or even 40 years when you finally decide to retire, you will have made an indelible positive mark on your neighborhood, town or city, and overall community.
We don’t need to be famous to leave a lasting impression.
Most people who leave behind a positive legacy are not famous. They aren’t rock stars or movie stars, they aren’t politicians, they aren’t inventors, etc. They were people just like you and me. They were average, ordinary individuals who recognized a need and sought to fill it.
A quality home care franchise company will not only stand behind their franchisees, supporting them every step of the way, they also will actively seek out those who aren’t doing this for money first, but because they want to help those most vulnerable get the care and services they require at home. That is a wonderful legacy.
