Business Experience Requirements |

Experience | Owning an Amada Senior Care business requires an investment with two major components - human and financial. Above all, we're looking for good human beings - compassionate and motivated individuals with a drive to help and a drive to become effective business leaders. We can train you in nearly everything else, but nothing can compensate for lack of desire and heart. We look for franchisees who are: *Compassionate/Charitable *Competitively driven to be the best *Urgency in all things *Farmer/Entrepreneur mentality *Confidently Humble | Although professional service or sales experience can be a plus – Senior Care Authority will provide you with hands-on technical training before you open your “doors” for business and will be there for you every step of the way as you learn how to run and operate your location. |
