Ideal Candidate

The ideal ABS franchise owner is someone who is passionate about seniors and pledges to commit their energy to the service of seniors. Someone who’s drive is second only to their compassion. This person will provide care with integrity, compassion, and respect; someone who will build relationships in the community and establish themselves as the preferred senior care provider in their territory. 

We're looking for franchise owners who are outgoing and have sales, marketing, and/or management experience, and who are results oriented. A person who can build relationships, lead a team, and who has the motivation to excel! You must have a minimum of $50 in liquid capital, and be ready to make a full-time commitment. Home care experience isn't necessary as we'll train you. We also have a passive business model for those who just want to be investors in their own business while we manage it for you. At any time in the future you decide you want to manage your business yourself instead, you can.
