Videos are Great Sales Tool for Care Management

June 27, 2022

Videos Are A Powerful  Marketing Tool

Videos are a powerful marketing tool  .The power of video marketing shows in its growth into a $135 billion industry. Brands everywhere are realizing the value of videos and creating them. According to ALCA’s former marketing guru Courtney Pulitzer,75 million people watch videos every day and stunning viewers retain 95% of the message while watching compared to only 10 %-of reading text.

Use Videos In Your Own Care Management Marketing

Show your community your agency’s excellent safety through videos, done with a phone by a talented staff member. Take the example of Lifespan a 35-year-old geriatric care management home care agency that provides Quality of Life activities and adds videos about  Lifespan‘s Well Being Program. They upload them to their YouTube channel another great way they build trust with their agency. Market safety from Covid-19.

 Videos are not hard to make

You just need a smartphone tripod and a person to do the videoing Learn to shoot great videos yourself. Look at my latest video made with my iPhone.I have a YouTube Channel on Geriatric Care Management for years. I made most of them with an I phone. However, you may need some expert help. I have gotten much more sophisticated and now have two videographers. An excellent one is Tapfilms, also used by Lifespan. A second is East Coast Studios which does all my online classes in geriatric care management. If you join to the Aging Life Care Asso ( ALCA) use their excellent video marketing resources

What Are Your Choices in Aging Life or GCM Client Software?

June 4, 2022

 

 

What are the Four Geriatric Care Management Databases?

 

There are only four significant aging life or GCM Software Choices ?  So the options for client software are slim. Jewel Code  and  My Junna  are two choices. Care Tree    I  Health Home  are two more options. Geriatric care managers and  ALCA managers who

have home care staffing themselves are fans of  Clear Care, which offers staffing if you also have private duty home care but is not really as user-friendly for care management needs with limited space to document & no care planning at all.

Which GCM Database Should you Choose – See my Newest Webinar?             

If you are a geriatric or aging life care manager or a private duty home care agency doing geriatric care management start up or still on paper- which GCM software choice should you use and why.

Join me for my newest free webinar on August 25, when  I will show zoom interview with all 4  four CEO’s asking them what are the features and benefits of their software and why their product stands out from their competition.

This gives your care management or homecare agency a more profitable bottom line in running a business.
