Do You Have a Speakers Bureau To Attract Alult Children ?

February 17, 2023

Schedule Speaker’s Bureau Now for Post Holiday Barrage of Callsred-phone.jpg

Your greatest influx of clients calling you is right now over the winter season. This is when there is a heightened awareness of the need for care of elders by adult children, as so many elders become ill and are hospitalized during the height of the flu season and the remaining covid variants..

What is a Speakers Bureau ? Why have one?

What is a Speakers’ Bureau

A Speakers’ Bureau is a series of hot topics presented to clubs senior networking groups EAPs or made into webinars that draw potential clients. We have put together a series of hot topics in the form of customized speeches for you to draw in local and long-distance adult children without doing the preparation yourself, like delicious premade meals you pop in the microwave

 

What Clients Does it Attract

The hardest to market to is adult children and a speakers bureau is a perfect means to find adult children. They are ravenous for solutions to their eldercare problems and finding those answers in community forums from experts with actual answers ( not pills, medical equipment, or health plans but actual experts with answers to adult children’s problems – a speakers bureau is the perfect forum for your marketing.)

 

  • What do you to prepare for Speaker’s Bureau

    images_20141216-184443_1.jpg

  • A series of hot topics in parent care problems. For example “when Adult Siblings are not doing their share,” When Should an Elder Move from their Home” ” 10 warning signs your parent may need help”
  • Pre-prepared speeches on a hot topic fully outlined and vetted with user-friendly language
  • You must create an outline plus handouts with your company contacts plus email contact sheet, so the audience walk away with something you handed them and you can add them to your Constant Contact or Mail chimp database
  • Start Your Speech?– a pop quiz on aging for example.

  • Sample -Have you and your aging parents planned for their physical decline?
  • Do you have resistance when you talk to your aging parents about planning for the losses of aging?
  • Are you worried about paying for your parent’s care?
  • What does a speaker’s bureau do for you?

Want the Care Managment Benefits You Can show an Elderlaw Attorney?

February 21, 2022

WHO IS YOUR TARGET MARKET

How do you sell your care management to an elder law attorney? As a geriatric care manager, you want to have success in marketing to this group? Why? prime targets are  3rd party targets including elder law attorneys. They are in the top five third parties who do not hire you but make great referrals to your agency. How do you sell your care management -your business financial success depends on third parties like elder law attorneys, who will refer these sometimes-desperate adult children and their aging parents.

These good  3rd part targets will refer elders and their families to you if you have a really good marketing campaign to reach them. This ” golden” group includes elder-law attorneys, trust officers, upscale assisted living, and concierge physicians.  More third parties for you to contact to grow your business include the county and state senior services,  information and referral agencies in each county, funded by the Older Americans Act, hospital-based care managers, and physicians, including geriatricians and internists.

All of these marketing targets serve the same demographic as you do. However, the first group serves the same financial demographic as you do elders in the top 10%

The more elder law attorneys who will refer adult children to you, the better the chances of your financial success at your GCM or aging life business. But how do you sell your care management through designing your marketing campaign?

HOW DO YOU SELL CARE MANAGEMENT  TO AN ELDERLAW ATTORNEY?

How do you sell your care management to an elder law attorney? Once you make an appointment with an elder law attorney,  you sell care management or products to her. First, you describe the facts about services and position your business So show them you are the best care management agency in your area to serve her or him.

Your business financial success depends on selling to third parties like elderlaw attorneys, but you have to use specific sales points. The next important sales point and the key one is you showing the elder law attorney how using your agency will “benefit him or her” in his or her practice.

How do you sell your care management- through your value to a key 3rd party? For example, elder law attorneys are skilled in their field of law but not skilled in working with dysfunctional families, rife with divorce, sibling rivalry, and bad parents. Many entitled parents did not care for them as children and now they are expected to care for that parent. A benefit to an elder law attorney who is not skilled in therapy is  Care Managers are therapeutically skilled in dealing with these angry adult kids, blood, or step from a broken nest.

WHAT BENEFITS  SELL GERIATRIC CARE MANAGEMENT TO ELDERLAW ATTORNEYS?

Benefits for elderlaw attorneys can show them  “What’s in it for them by referring to you.

  • You are a health care professional who can assess capacity BENEFIT you will always advise whether the older client has the ability to make legal  decisions
  • You are an expert  with dysfunctional  families BENEFIT–You can take therapy off att plate and help family members support the client’s legal care decisions
  • You Can Facilitate family meetings over non-titled assets like the salt and paper collection BENEFIT  so the attorney who is not a therapist can work on more important legal titled assets like property

Is Your Business Marketing Plan 4 Updated With Omicron Scourge ?

January 14, 2022

 Do You Have a Care Management or Home Care  Marketing Plan For the Omicron Explosion?

 

Omicron explosion  Covid-19

How do you successfully market the safety of your care management or home care business during the 2022 Omicron worldwide surge?  How can you overcome customers’ hesitation to use your agency when Omicron still wildly spikes, variants may be around the corner, most Americans are predicted to get Omicron  as Omicron/ COVID surge all over the world

DURING OMICRON SURGE DID YOU EDIT YOUR MARKETING  PLAN?

 

Omicron Marketing Plan

During the Omicron explosion, your audience is everyone who wants to know that it is safe to use your services. So, how are you going to add that to your marketing plan? Will you have clearly defined COVID -safe policies on the front page of your website like Lifespan, a geriatric care management agency in Santa Cruz, Ca?

Will you use videos of your staff to show your agency’s commitment to COVID safety? How will you adjust your marketing plan during the omicron explosion to make clients choose you over the competition in your area?

During this worldwide omicron infestation, will you add a new COVID -19 Coaching service to help local and long-distance families understand how to keep their elders safe from COVID while sheltering in place, recovering from COVID at home, or going into the hospital and recovering after hospitalization?

 

According to the CDC, more data are needed to know if Omicron infections, and especially reinfections and breakthrough infections in people who are fully vaccinated, cause more severe illness or death than infection with other variants. So spreading your agency safety policy through social media, your newsletter, your website, and talking to clients is critical and it needs to go into the revision of your marketing plan ASAP.
