Tasha Beauchamp, an Aging Life Care Webmaster, Research Scientist owner of Elder Pages Online, LLC  had this tip in an ALCA blog  about in-person presentations 

“You provide enough information to demonstrate your expertise, but as someone mentioned already, not enough detail that you are giving away the store.  One way to get an insight into what people are interested in and will attend a speakers Bureau presentation is to look at the top eldercare-related searches on Google compiled by the Pew Internet Project:” according to Tasha Beauchamp, Aging Life Webmaster, and Research Scientist.

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

Omicron Gone Nuclear-Are you Marketing Your Agencies COVID-19 Safety ?

January 3, 2022

 

How Do You Market the Safety Of Your Agency with Omicron Cases Exploding Nationally?

What is the best way to show the Covid -19 safety protocols of your GCM or homecare agency with new Omicron surge exploding COVID cases once again?  You must overcome adult children’s hesitation to use homecare and GCM services. Why hesitation? Although about 62% of all Americans are now vaccinated -while— more than 87 percent of adults 65 and older — have been fully vaccinated, yet terrifying the public and adult children who care for aging loved one’s needing care at home —as  COVID exploding again with the highly contagious omicron variant accounting for an estimated 58.6% of sequenced U.S. virus cases in the week ending Dec. 25, as the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s Nowcast model showed, was up from an estimated 22.5% a week earlier ., 22% self identify as anti-vaxers,  So aging families remain very nervous about your agency coming into a senior home.

During this new COVID-19 Omicron surge what families look for in your agency is your Covid 19 safety of staff- the care providers, care managers, and office staff’s vaccination rate, your safety protocols, PPE equipment use, and evidence that you work with your local department of health, state and CDC to stay compliant.

DO YOU CREATE A COVID -19 SAFETY MARKETING PLAN?

Hygienic shield offering COVID-19 Saftey from omicron

A key element that goes into that marketing plan would be an e-newsletter, with a marketing campaign on your covid-19 safety  sent out in formats like Constant Contact   Survey Monkey  other choices

This will boost the clients you can serve, as the Omicron surge has made adult children and elderly clients are nervous to have visitors come to their homes, exposing elders

States and individual health systems have historically addressed vaccination requirements for diseases such as influenza and hepatitis B. You must follow your state’s COVID regulations.  Today, more than 2,500 hospitals, or 40 percent of all U.S. hospitals, have announced COVID vaccination requirements for their workforce. They span all 50 states, the District of Columbia, and Puerto Rico.  Potential clients need to know your care staff and care managers you use are incentivized to get vaccinated.

Other Ideas to Add to your e-newsletter about COVID

Warning about Omincron surge 

Include Videos in your e-newsletter like this terrific e-newsletter that Lifespan, a care management agency in Santa Cruz, Ca. uses introducing their staff products and services during COVID. 

  • Tell a story with the COVID safety you want to show future clients and their adult children
  • Use your i phone to record your video

  • marketing Covid -19 safety of your agency

  • If you are a care manager, include a list of great reasons that a client or customer should work with an ALCA or Geriatric Care Manager during the Coronavirus pandemic. ALCA members get this in a flyer “Why Work With An ALCA Member During A Crisis “.The Aging Life Care Association has huge resources for dealing with coronavirus impact on geriatric care management. This makes joining ALCA now a great idea in this lethal pandemic and its deadly effect.
