Introducing Visiting Angels, the Stateside success in the field of care – now launching in the UK


offi ces. The business has been built over 20 years with strong ethical and community values at its core. The lessons learned from 20 years in the


V


private care sector are now being brought over here as the Visiting Angels franchise is offered in the UK for the fi rst time. Managing director Dan Archer explains: “One thing that we learned in the US is the importance of structuring the business as a carer-centric organisation. “Many care businesses pay lip service


to their carer focus without carrying that through to the structure that they operate. We have built the business by asking the question: ‘What does that mean for our carers?’ As we move into franchising we will be taking the same approach: ‘What does that mean for our franchisees?’”


"Our early fra nchisees will benefit from being part of a close-knit group and having a real influence on the direction of the business"


A franchise with Visiting Angels will


deliver experience on day one. Almost 600 franchisees regularly provide best practice content that new UK franchisees will gain access to. Dan continues: “Our business is new in the UK and our early franchisees will benefi t from being part of a close-knit group and having a real infl uence on the direction of the business in the UK. At the same time we have a wealth of experience in the US we can call upon and we’re

p Dan Archer, managing director of Visiting Angels


following in the footsteps of other Stateside homecare brands that are now established in the UK. It is a genuine win-win.” Dan has a wealth of franchise


knowledge. Having been in franchising since the 1990s and he is also a former British Franchise Association director having served on the bfa board for nearly six years. He has extensive knowledge of the homecare sector with a brief spell at Home Instead Senior Care in 2011 and more recently being in part responsible for turning around live-in care specialist Promedica24 as franchise director and latterly managing director for the UK business. Dan says: “I have had some fantastic


teachers in franchising I have worked with remarkable people in both franchise and care businesses, I am looking forward to bringing my experience to bear on the development of Visiting Angels in the UK.” Launched in 2017, the Visiting Angels


franchise is seeking fi ve exceptional candidates to join the business as the founding franchisees. Dan concludes: “Our model is already well proven in the US and we have made the necessary legislative adjustments before starting the piloting of the business in the UK. We are now looking for fi ve interested parties to join us during 2018, to work with us as development franchisees.” These development franchisees will


benefi t from being fi rst into the business and as a result will be part of defi ning the future success of the franchise and will work closely with the team at head offi ce. A reduced fee is being offered to the development franchisees. l
