Marketing Support to Get New Clients

One of the biggest challenges when you start a business is getting new clients. At Walfinch, you have access to a marketing support team who are experts at helping you use Google, social media and other marketing channels to generate business.

Business Development Support to Grow Your Business

Compliance Support to get you to Outstanding

Home care is a regulated sector and a poorrating from your regulator can damage your reputation. At Walfinch, you get a dedicated quality and compliance manager to make sure you always get a positive rating and stay ahead of the competition.We aim to get over 70% to outstanding and the national average is 4%. All franchisees inspected this year are rated good or above!

Coming into the care sector is daunting if you haven’t worked in it before. However, you don’t need a background in care because at Walfinch you’ll have an initial face to face training programme designed to prepare you for running your business. You’ll also have
regular ongoing workshops to keep you up to
date on industry trends.

Starting a business is expensive and you can run into unexpected costs. At Walfinch, you can access start up funding from banks or the Government to help you get started. Your support team will help you use this funding to make your business profitable as quickly as possible.

If you don’t have any experience running a
business it can be worrying at first. At Walfinch, you have franchise support managers who will help you reach profitability quickly and sustainably.
