Caring Transitions

<a href="https://1851franchise.com/caringtransitions">Caring Transitions</a>, the 290-unit franchise providing senior relocation, downsizing and estate sale services, understands that changing the way seniors and families transition is a big deal. That is why the <a href="https://www.caringtransitionsfranchise.com/?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=caring-transitions-announces-new-partnership-with-senior-focused-media-company-growing-bolder-2722296" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Caring Transitions</a> team is committed to getting the word out about the brand and ensuring franchise owners can reach as many people as possible in their local market. As part of this strategy, Caring Transitions recently announced a new media partnership with&nbsp;<a href="https://growingbolder.com/?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=caring-transitions-announces-new-partnership-with-senior-focused-media-company-growing-bolder-2722296" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Growing Bolder</a>, a multi-platform media company that inspires and empowers individuals to live their lives to the fullest.“One of the first steps in our storytelling marketing strategy is this new partnership with Growing Bolder,” said&nbsp;<a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/hvoit?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=caring-transitions-announces-new-partnership-with-senior-focused-media-company-growing-bolder-2722296" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Heather Voit</a>, who recently joined the Caring Transitions team as Vice President of Marketing. “This partnership is going to allow us to connect with their massive audience and share meaningful stories across their platforms.”<h4>What Is Growing Bolder?</h4>Growing Bolder comprises a talented group of acclaimed journalists, broadcasters, and creative professionals dedicated to showcasing the extraordinary lives of ordinary individuals — those who are defying expectations and reimagining life beyond 50. By offering not only the motivation to pursue a healthier and more active lifestyle, Growing Bolder also supplies practical advice, valuable resources, and community support to turn these aspirations into reality.“When people ask about Growing Bolder, the easy answer is to say we are a media company, but we are really a lifestyle brand that is supported by a media company,” said Founder and CEO&nbsp;<a href="https://growingbolder.com/stories/marc-middleton-were-meant-to-lean-into-life-and-value-every-breath/?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=caring-transitions-announces-new-partnership-with-senior-focused-media-company-growing-bolder-2722296" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Marc Middleton</a>, who is a well-known television journalist, author, publisher and filmmaker focused on the changing culture of aging. “We don’t deny that life has struggles as you get older, but every age has struggles. Our culture likes to focus on the negative aspect of aging, but we look at it through a prism of passion, purpose and possibility. Aging is not a problem, it is a process that lets us get rid of what matters least and focus on what matters most. That is what downsizing is all about, and that is why we believe we have found a synergistic partner with Caring Transitions.”By targeting men and women between 50 and 65 years old, Growing Bolder, like Caring Transitions, is catering to the fastest-growing demographic in the country, which currently has a $3.8 trillion economic impact and is responsible for 78% of all disposable income and 58% of all purchasing decisions.“The rapidly-growing senior population is transforming every part of the culture,” said Middleton. “There is an entirely new life stage now, with many people living longer in post-retirement than they did in their entire career. That means there are more opportunities to tell these stories.”And Growing Bolder has quite a few channels for telling these stories, including a&nbsp;<a href="https://growingbolder.com/tv/?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=caring-transitions-announces-new-partnership-with-senior-focused-media-company-growing-bolder-2722296" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">TV show</a>, which airs nationally on public broadcasting stations; a<a href="https://growingbolder.com/magazine/?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=caring-transitions-announces-new-partnership-with-senior-focused-media-company-growing-bolder-2722296" target="_blank" rel="nofollow"> magazine</a>; a<a href="https://growingbolder.com/radio-podcast/?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=caring-transitions-announces-new-partnership-with-senior-focused-media-company-growing-bolder-2722296" target="_blank" rel="nofollow"> radio station and podcast</a>; social media channels and more. “We want to reach older adults wherever they are,” said Middleton.<h4>Inside the Strategic Partnership</h4>So, how will Caring Transitions franchisees benefit from this new partnership? For one, Growing Bolder is set to launch a new editorial content franchise that will be present throughout its entire platform, centered completely on Caring Transitions. This will include sharing the stories of happy clients, interviews with the leadership team, features on successful franchisees, tips on when to make a successful transition and more.&nbsp;“When you can present your message in an editorial way that is relatable, authentic and credible, that is where the magic happens,” said Middleton. “Everything that we produce will be available for Caring Transition franchisees’ free and unrestricted use. We are helping them become a media company by giving them powerful marketing content to share.”&nbsp;For example, Caring Transitions will be featured on 10 editorial video interceptions inside Growing Bolder’s weekly television show,&nbsp;<a href="https://growingbolder.com/whats-next/?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=caring-transitions-announces-new-partnership-with-senior-focused-media-company-growing-bolder-2722296" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">What's Next!</a>, which sees 100,000 average monthly viewers.&nbsp;Caring Transitions ads will also be run on the&nbsp;<a href="https://growingbolder.com/radio-podcast/?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=caring-transitions-announces-new-partnership-with-senior-focused-media-company-growing-bolder-2722296" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Growing Bolder Radio and Podcast on NPR One</a>, which sees 8,000 downloads per week, as well as on its&nbsp;<a href="https://growingbolder.com/stories/the-fountain-of-youth/?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=caring-transitions-announces-new-partnership-with-senior-focused-media-company-growing-bolder-2722296" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Fountain of Youth podcast</a>.

Together, they will deliver enriching content that educates, entertains and supports individuals as they navigate life's transitions, empowering them to live their best lives with purpose and joy.“This is the first step in our fully-integrated marketing strategy and we are very excited to have Growing Bolder as a partner and a producer of assets that our franchisees can use on a local level, while leveraging their reach and engagement on a national level, as well,” said Voit. “They are master storytellers and content creators, and we are thrilled to be working alongside them.”To find out more information on costs to buy this franchise, please visit https://1851franchise.com/caringtransitions

<a href="https://www.caringtransitionsfranchise.com/">Caring Transitions</a> continues to strengthen its leadership bench with the return of one of the most influential figures in the senior relocation industry.&nbsp;With a long history in senior move management and a strong connection to the brand,&nbsp;<a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/nanhayes">Nan Hayes</a> has returned to&nbsp;<a href="https://1851franchise.com/caringtransitions/info">Caring Transitions</a> as Director of Training and Franchise Business Coaching.Hayes brings decades of experience to the position, including her work as a founding leader in the development of the senior relocation industry and her role in helping establish professional standards that now guide the field. Her return marks a full-circle moment for both Hayes and the brand she helped shape in its early years.<h2>A Pioneer in Senior Relocation</h2>Hayes’ journey into senior relocation began long before the industry formally existed. “I started volunteering with seniors when I was a teenager,” Hayes said. “I became a buyer for a large drug chain and worked as an executive, but I always volunteered with older adults. Eventually, I found myself spending more and more time helping seniors.”That passion turned into a professional calling. In the 1990s, Hayes encountered a moment that would shape the trajectory of her career.“There was a moment after we were flipping houses when we were left with a home that still contained all of the owner’s belongings,” Hayes said. “The family didn’t know what to do with their mom’s possessions. It was heartbreaking to see antiques thrown into the dumpster simply because no one had a process or a solution.”Recognizing a major gap in services for older adults and their families, Hayes launched her own company and began developing systems to&nbsp;<a href="https://1851franchise.com/caringtransitions/senior-services-and-the-future-of-franchising-in-an-aging-america-2731562">help seniors transition out of their homes with dignity and organization.</a>“At that time, senior relocation didn’t really exist as an industry,” Hayes said. “I started providing services under my own company and eventually began training people around the country on how to do this work.”<h2>Establishing Standards for an Emerging Industry</h2>As senior relocation services gained national traction, Hayes played a central role in professionalizing the space. She was instrumental in supporting the growth of a national trade organization focused on the sector and helped develop certification programs and operational standards for professionals working with older adults.“My whole position on the industry has always been that it is leadership’s responsibility to set standards,” Hayes said. “We needed consistency so this could become a recognized industry. What are the services? How are they delivered? What are the standards?”Those early frameworks proved essential for a service category built on trust and compassion. “We literally created certification programs because standards in this high-touch industry were critical,” Hayes said.From the beginning, Caring Transitions aligned closely with that philosophy.“Caring Transitions adopted those standards very early,” Hayes said. “They understood that serving older-adult clients is a high-touch business and recognized the need for care and compassion to keep seniors safe. That’s a big reason why they’ve been such a successful franchise.”<h2>A Longstanding Connection to Caring Transitions</h2>Hayes’ relationship with Caring Transitions spans more than two decades. She began consulting with the brand in the early 2000s, working alongside leadership to help develop training programs, operational standards and franchise support systems as the company expanded.“At the time, there were about 20 to 30 franchises,” Hayes said. “Today, there are more than 435 units across the country. It’s incredible to see how the organization has grown.”In 2018, Hayes stepped away from her consulting role with Caring Transitions while caring for her mother, who had been diagnosed with dementia. During that time, she continued working within the industry while remaining closely connected to the mission that had shaped her career.Now, nearly seven years later, she is returning to the organization in a full-time leadership role.“Helping families through times of transition isn’t just my career, it’s my calling,” Hayes said. “I’m grateful and excited to once again work alongside leaders, owners and partners who share that same passion.”<h2>Strengthening Training and Franchise Support</h2>In her new role as Director of Training and Franchise Business Coaching, Hayes will focus on supporting franchise owners and the coaches who guide them through every stage of their business journey.“My focus is helping with everything from new tools and training to coaching skills and how we respond to the needs of our franchise owners,” Hayes said.<a href="https://1851franchise.com/caringtransitions/the-benefits-of-owning-a-caring-transitions-franchise-why-entrepreneurs-are-choosing-the-senior-services-industry-2731583">Caring Transitions’ support system for franchisees</a> has also expanded significantly over the years, and Hayes sees that structure as one of the brand’s strongest differentiators.“There is an understanding that Caring Transitions offers a tremendous amount of support and training for new owners,” Hayes said. “We have onboarding coaches, regional coaches, classroom training, field training and specialized business development coaching.”New franchise owners benefit from a comprehensive onboarding process, and the support continues long after the first year of operation.“As franchisees grow, they have a permanent regional coach who is available anytime they need guidance,” Hayes said. “We also provide specialized coaching in areas like business development and operations, along with extensive resources within our CRM platform.”<h2>Positioned for the Industry’s Next Chapter</h2>Hayes returns to Caring Transitions at a pivotal moment for both the company and the senior services industry. With&nbsp;<a href="https://1851franchise.com/caringtransitions/the-growing-need-for-senior-downsizing-how-caring-transitions-is-leading-the-way-2728831">the aging population driving increasing demand</a> for relocation, downsizing and estate transition services, the market opportunity continues to expand rapidly.“There is a huge influx of clients right now,” Hayes said. “The demand for these services is really taking off.”But Hayes emphasizes that success in the field requires far more than operational knowledge.“For anyone who thinks senior relocation is just a business opportunity, it’s important to understand that this work requires compassion and understanding,” she said. “You’re working with people who are going through major life transitions. It’s hard work, but it’s incredibly meaningful.”That mindset, she believes,&nbsp;<a href="https://1851franchise.com/caringtransitions/10-reasons-why-caring-transitions-stands-out-among-other-franchises-2727831">is what sets Caring Transitions apart</a>. “It’s much more than a business,” Hayes said. “This is truly a calling to work with seniors. The owners in this system understand that, and that mindset really defines Caring Transitions.”<h2>Looking Ahead</h2>As Hayes settles into her new leadership role, she is energized by the opportunity to help guide&nbsp;<a href="https://1851franchise.com/caringtransitions/caring-transitions-surpasses-400-locations-celebrates-record-breaking-first-half-of-2025-2729880">the next generation of franchise owners entering the system</a>.“I’m excited to watch the next generation of owners come in and continue building on what we’ve created,” Hayes said.She also sees tremendous opportunity for the brand to expand consumer awareness about the full scope of services Caring Transitions provides. “We’re in the thick of it now,” Hayes said. “Our job is to help families understand that we are a trusted resource who can help with everything from start to finish — sorting, organizing, space planning, liquidations, online auctions and more.”For Hayes, the return to Caring Transitions represents a continuation of a mission she helped launch decades ago.“It’s incredibly rewarding to see the organization become the national powerhouse we envisioned years ago,” Hayes said. “Helping families navigate life transitions with dignity and support will always be at the heart of what we do.”To find out more information on costs to buy this franchise, please visit&nbsp;<a href="https://1851franchise.com/caringtransitions/info">https://1851franchise.com/caringtransitions/info</a>.

Hayes, a true pioneer in senior relocation, is back with Caring Transitions as the brand’s Director of Training and Franchise Business Coaching. 

Meet Nan Hayes: The Industry Trailblazer Strengthening Caring Transitions’ Operational Leadership

As millions of baby boomers age into their late 60s, 70s and 80s, the demand for compassionate, comprehensive transition services is accelerating. Brands like&nbsp;<a href="https://www.caringtransitionsfranchise.com/">Caring Transitions</a> are at the forefront of that movement, offering professional senior relocation, downsizing and estate sale services at a scale built to meet what many call the “Silver Tsunami.”“When we talk about why this is a growing industry, the major player in that is just the increase in the senior population,” said&nbsp;<a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/joe-lewandowski-822b5011">Joe Lewandowski</a>, Brand President of&nbsp;<a href="https://1851franchise.com/caringtransitions/info">Caring Transitions</a>. “We hear a lot about the Silver Tsunami, and it is now Peak 65 — a four-year period we are in right now where the most Boomers will turn 65, almost 11,000 a day. That trend will continue until 2027.”<h2>Peak 65: A Demographic Wave Driving Opportunity</h2>The sheer scale of aging Americans is unprecedented. Each day, thousands of adults cross the threshold into retirement age. The U.S. population of adults aged 65 and older has&nbsp;<a href="https://www.jchs.harvard.edu/sites/default/files/reports/files/Harvard_JCHS_Housing_Americas_Older_Adults_2023.pdf">increased by 34% over the past decade</a>, rising from 43 million in 2012 to 58 million in 2022. Despite a strong desire among older adults to age in place, with 92% of those aged 65 to 74 wishing to remain in their current homes,&nbsp;<a href="https://www.nia.nih.gov/news/census-bureau-releases-report-domestic-migration-older-americans">more than 3 million adults aged 65 and older</a> relocate each year due to health changes, downsizing decisions and moves to assisted living. “When you look at just that sheer volume, you start to look at where the needs are,” Lewandowski said. “That is a huge contributor to why the senior industry at large is growing.”These needs often become urgent following a triggering event: a fall, hospitalization or the passing of a spouse. In those moments, families must act quickly. “There is a definite need around senior relocation and downsizing,” Lewandowski said. “We have all these seniors turning 65 and they get to a point where they can no longer stay in their home. When a triggering event happens and they are forced to make that change, the senior relocation industry is in demand.”And the demand is already measurable. “When we think about the level of need, we had 50,000 people reach out in 2025 to Caring Transitions asking for help,” Lewandowski said. “That is a huge number. The need is definitely there.”For franchising, that volume represents something powerful: sustained, long-term demand not tied to trends, but to demographics.<h2>Families Are Farther Away and Need Professional Help</h2>The aging shift is compounded by another modern reality:&nbsp;<a href="https://1851franchise.com/caringtransitions/how-caring-transitions-supports-adult-children-in-managing-their-parents-moves-2728833">families are more geographically dispersed than ever before</a>. Nearly 40% of adult children now live in a different state than their aging parents, making hands-on relocation management difficult.“The other piece is the families,” Lewandowski said. “They are not around for a lot of the pieces that come up. More and more families are noticing that their senior loved ones might need to move to an assisted living facility, but there is no one there to help.”For adult children juggling careers and their own families, managing a senior move from afar can take six to nine months, which is time they simply do not have.“If I don’t live in the same state as my parents and these things need to happen, how am I going to do that?” Lewandowski said. “It doesn’t make sense for families, they don’t know where to start and it is a major undertaking to do all these things related to senior relocation.”“That is something a professional organization can accomplish in a matter of weeks,” he added. “They don’t have the time, they are in a different state, it needs to be done.”This gap between need and capability is precisely where senior service franchises are stepping in.<h2>A Recession-Resistant Category</h2>Senior transition services also stand apart in another key way: resilience. Life transitions do not pause during economic downturns. Seniors still need to relocate for health reasons. Estates must still be cleared. Homes must be prepared for sale.<a href="https://1851franchise.com/caringtransitions/caring-transitions-a-recession-resistant-franchise-opportunity-for-entrepreneurs-2730712">Franchisees within the Caring Transitions system have proven this firsthand</a>, launching during COVID, navigating housing slowdowns and even weathering natural disasters while continuing to grow.From a franchising perspective, this stability makes senior services uniquely attractive. Demand is driven by demographics and life events rather than discretionary consumer spending, creating a category with long-term staying power.As&nbsp;<a href="https://1851franchise.com/caringtransitions/why-compassion-driven-businesses-are-thriving-how-caring-transitions-leads-with-heart-and-purpose-2729594">awareness of senior relocation grows</a>, so too does the sophistication of the category. “There is also greater awareness of these services,” Lewandowski said. “Similar to when in-home senior care first started, people weren’t aware it was an option. That is happening now with senior relocation.”Caring Transitions has helped accelerate that awareness through scale and innovation, with more than 440 locations nationwide. That scale is paired with proprietary tools like&nbsp;<a href="https://1851franchise.com/caringtransitions/how-franchisees-can-tap-into-the-rising-trend-of-estate-sales-with-ctbids-2728327">CTBids</a>, the brand’s online estate sale platform, and streamlined quoting and operational systems designed to help franchisees move quickly and professionally.“We have been doing this for 20 years now,” Lewandowski said. “We have it down and know what it takes to help families transition through life’s stages.”<h2>The Future of Franchising in an Aging America</h2>As America continues to age, franchising is evolving alongside it. The next decade will not be defined solely by restaurants, fitness concepts or retail brands. It will increasingly be shaped by essential services tied to demographic inevitability.Senior relocation, downsizing and estate management represent one of the clearest long-term growth lanes in franchising today.For entrepreneurs, the opportunity is twofold: build a scalable, diversified business with multiple revenue streams and make a meaningful impact during some of life’s most emotional transitions.“We’re not just growing for growth’s sake,” Lewandowski said. “We’re bringing in the right owners, people who care deeply about their clients and communities.”In an aging America, that combination of compassion and operational strength may define the future of franchising itself.To learn more about franchising opportunities with Caring Transitions, visit:<a href="https://1851franchise.com/caringtransitions/info">&nbsp;https://1851franchise.com/caringtransitions/info</a>.

The United States is entering one of the most significant demographic shifts in its history, reshaping not only the senior services industry, but the future of franchising itself.

The United States is entering a demographic moment unlike any in its history. With millions of Americans reaching retirement age, the demand for services that help seniors and their families navigate life's changes is skyrocketing.&nbsp;According to&nbsp;<a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/joe-lewandowski-822b5011/">Joe Lewandowski</a>, President of&nbsp;<a href="https://www.caringtransitionsfranchise.com/">Caring Transitions</a>, the current demographic wave —&nbsp;<a href="https://www.limraconsumer.com/harris-fichtner-singletary/">often referred to as “Peak 65”</a> — is driving unprecedented demand for senior-focused services.“We are in a time when more Americans in history are turning age 65 than ever before,” Lewandowski said. “That is about 11,000 seniors turning 65 every single day. 2025 was the largest year in U.S. history for Americans reaching that milestone, and as they age, the need for services continues to grow.” If you're an entrepreneur considering a franchise, this trend presents one of the most exciting opportunities in the market right now.<h2>A Demographic Wave Driving Demand</h2>As the baby boomer generation continues to age,&nbsp;<a href="https://1851franchise.com/caringtransitions/the-growing-need-for-senior-downsizing-how-caring-transitions-is-leading-the-way-2728831">more families are facing complex decisions about housing, caregiving and long-term planning</a>. While many seniors hope to remain in their homes, health events and lifestyle changes often necessitate relocation.“The relocation and senior services business is fueled by triggering events,” Lewandowski said. “By age 65, the probability of disability is about 68%. By age 85, there is about a 45% chance of Alzheimer’s or dementia.”These realities mean that many families eventually must navigate difficult and time-sensitive transitions. For many seniors, downsizing or moving into a retirement community becomes the safest and most practical option.“They may need to move to a home that is more manageable or into a retirement community,” Lewandowski said. “Someone has to go through that process with them.”The process itself is rarely simple. Downsizing decades of belongings, coordinating movers, organizing estate sales and preparing homes for sale can take months when families attempt to handle it alone.“There is a lot of downsizing, coordination, movers and logistics involved,” Lewandowski said. “That is not something the senior is going to do on their own — they are already overwhelmed.”Professional services like those offered by&nbsp;<a href="https://1851franchise.com/caringtransitions/info">Caring Transitions</a> are designed to step in during these moments, helping families navigate the emotional and logistical complexities of major life changes.<h2>Families Are Farther Apart Than Ever</h2>Another factor accelerating demand for senior transition services is the geographic distance between generations. Today, many&nbsp;<a href="https://1851franchise.com/caringtransitions/how-caring-transitions-supports-adult-children-in-managing-their-parents-moves-2728833">adult children</a> live hundreds or even thousands of miles away from their aging parents, making it difficult to manage a relocation or estate settlement firsthand.“About 45% to 50% of adult children live in different states than their parents,” Lewandowski said. “So when seniors need help, they may not be able to turn to their kids to handle it. They are finding someone else to help them.”When a health event or urgent move arises, families often realize just how overwhelming the process can be, especially from afar. “Once families get involved, they also need support,” Lewandowski said. “They need to hire someone to help them because it could take months to go through that process, and they may not necessarily have that time.”For entrepreneurs entering the industry, that gap between need and available help creates a clear and growing opportunity. “It really starts to make sense when you look at it from that perspective,” Lewandowski said. “They may not need services today, but the demand is only going to increase as the population continues to age.”<h2>A Category Becoming More Mainstream</h2>Senior relocation services were once a relatively unknown category. But as awareness spreads,&nbsp;<a href="https://1851franchise.com/why-senior-relocation-is-a-growing-industry-2731507">the industry is becoming more widely recognized</a> among families, real estate professionals and senior living communities. That increased visibility has made it easier for companies like Caring Transitions to explain their value proposition.“We can explain in about 30 seconds what Caring Transitions is because people are becoming more aware,” Lewandowski said.Interestingly, the emergence of new companies in the space may actually accelerate that awareness. “As we see more competition entering the space, it can still be positive because it is bringing more awareness to the industry,” Lewandowski said. “It really helps drive everybody’s business.”<h2>Innovation Expanding the Opportunity</h2>The senior transition industry has also evolved significantly over the past decade, creating new ways for franchise owners to serve clients and generate revenue.When Lewandowski first joined Caring Transitions 16 years ago, estate sales were primarily conducted in person. Today, digital platforms have transformed the process.“When I first started here, downsizing and moving meant physical estate sales,” he said. “But as time changed and trends progressed, online and e-commerce became more popular, especially after the pandemic.”That shift led to the creation of&nbsp;<a href="https://1851franchise.com/caringtransitions/how-franchisees-can-tap-into-the-rising-trend-of-estate-sales-with-ctbids-2728327">CTBids</a>, Caring Transitions’ increasingly popular proprietary online auction platform. For franchise owners, innovations like these expand the services they can offer while making operations more efficient.<h2>A Long-Term Opportunity for Entrepreneurs</h2>For those considering franchise ownership, the senior services industry offers a rare combination of strong demand, meaningful work and long-term stability. Demographics alone suggest the need will continue growing for decades.“There has never been a better time to get into the senior-focused business,” Lewandowski said.As America continues to age and families look for trusted help navigating life transitions, entrepreneurs who step into the space today are positioning themselves in one of the most resilient and rapidly expanding sectors in franchising.And for many&nbsp;<a href="https://1851franchise.com/caringtransitions/why-couples-are-choosing-to-own-a-caring-transitions-franchise-together-2731586">Caring Transitions franchise owners</a>, the opportunity goes beyond business success — it also provides the chance to make a real difference in people’s lives during moments that matter most.To find out more information on costs to buy this franchise, please visit&nbsp;<a href="https://1851franchise.com/caringtransitions/info">https://1851franchise.com/caringtransitions/info</a>.

With “Peak 65” underway and millions of Americans entering retirement age, demand for senior relocation and transition services is accelerating — creating a powerful opportunity for entrepreneurs.

For many aspiring franchise owners, the first few months after signing an agreement can feel like the biggest unknown. What happens between becoming a franchisee and launching a fully operational business?&nbsp;At&nbsp;<a href="https://www.caringtransitionsfranchise.com/">Caring Transitions</a>, the onboarding process is designed to remove that uncertainty, guiding new owners through a structured ramp-up period that blends training, operational preparation and early client acquisition.<h2>Days 1-30: Training, Strategic Start and Building the Foundation</h2>The first month focuses heavily on training and preparation. New franchisees complete onboarding programs designed to teach the&nbsp;<a href="https://1851franchise.com/caringtransitions/info">Caring Transitions</a> service model, including downsizing services, relocation support, estate sales and online auctions through the brand’s&nbsp;<a href="https://1851franchise.com/caringtransitions/how-franchisees-can-tap-into-the-rising-trend-of-estate-sales-with-ctbids-2728327">proprietary CTBids platform</a>.This period also introduces franchisees to the brand’s Strategic Start framework — a structured approach to launching a new location. Strategic Start helps owners establish the operational and marketing foundation they need before serving their first clients. That includes everything from understanding pricing and job workflows to learning how to market services locally. For franchisees like&nbsp;<a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/petelankarge">Pete Lankarge</a> in&nbsp;<a href="https://www.caringtransitions.com/locations/newport-ri">Newport, Rhode Island</a>, the structured support system made it possible to hit the ground running.“What was great from the perspective of the Caring Transitions corporate team was that they provided so much guidance to be properly launched and let us hit the ground running,” Lankarge said.Equally important during this phase is building the initial team and tools required to operate efficiently. Caring Transitions provides franchisees with resources that simplify hiring and workforce management.For Lankarge, one of those tools helped him quickly assemble a team capable of handling early jobs. “For example, we have a partnership with a company called&nbsp;<a href="https://www.jazzhr.com/">JazzHR</a>,” he said. “That is how most of our employees have come in. That is one example of how we found staff members, which is how we were able to pull off the jobs that we had.”With operational systems in place and hiring underway, franchisees spend the latter part of the first month preparing for their initial marketing efforts.<h2>Days 30-60: Building Community Connections and Generating Leads</h2>Once the operational foundation is in place, the focus shifts to generating awareness in the local market. Caring Transitions businesses are deeply rooted in their communities, so relationship-building is critical to early growth.New franchisees begin connecting with local organizations, senior living communities, real estate professionals and other referral partners who often encounter families navigating downsizing or relocation decisions.“I went out and quickly joined the Newport Chamber of Commerce,” Lankarge said. “A couple of our jobs have come from that group in particular. The networking and generating word-of-mouth buzz was a big piece of that. Just helping get the word out.”Corporate support also helps franchisees amplify those efforts through established partnerships and brand credibility. “That is a big benefit of the franchise model,” Lankarge said. “You are not by yourself. It makes it much easier as a start-up entrepreneur.”For franchisees operating in markets where Caring Transitions already has a presence, referral pipelines may develop even more quickly.<a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/jamie-lee-davis-540004155/">Jamie Davis</a>, owner of&nbsp;<a href="https://www.caringtransitionsofgilbertaz.com/">Caring Transitions of South Gilbert, Arizona</a>, quickly found that community relationships played a major role in her early growth.“We have a lot of retirees here, and those communities are very ingrained in what we do,” Davis said. “I have gotten a lot of my work from referrals - I have a few clients who have recommended me to their neighbors or their friends. It’s nice that my clients are so happy that they feel comfortable sharing.”<h2>Days 60-90: Landing First Clients and Learning in the Field</h2>By the third month, many franchisees are actively serving their first clients. Those early projects often become the most valuable learning experiences as owners put their training into practice and refine their operational systems.For Lankarge, the momentum started quickly after his initial team orientation. “We were fortunate to land a very large client two weeks after training,” he said. “Immediately, we got to have the whole team dive in.”The project became an immersive training opportunity for his team. “From that one client, we had a massive home cleanout and ran three separate estate sales from it,” he said. “It launched us to train the team in the field, essentially.”Those early jobs also demonstrate&nbsp;<a href="https://1851franchise.com/caringtransitions/10-reasons-why-caring-transitions-stands-out-among-other-franchises-2727831">the scale and variety of work Caring Transitions franchisees handle</a>. “The project itself was very meaningful - it was a Navy veteran who passed away,” Lankarge said. “They had a lifetime of collecting and a lot of really cool antiques, designer clothing, jewelry and artwork.”For many new owners, the first few months reveal how quickly the business can grow once systems and referrals are in place. “Once we got that big client, I saw why we needed staff assistance,” Lankarge said. “I was able to be the team lead on the project in the field, but the vision down the road is to have others in place who can run the projects.”<h2>Building Systems for Long-Term Growth</h2>As operations ramp up, franchisees begin refining their approach to staffing, marketing and project management. Davis, who opened her Caring Transitions business in July 2025, quickly expanded her team to support growing demand.“I started out with two employees and I now have seven employees,” she said. “I have a business development rep that is connecting with the community, and I also have a social media manager that I brought in part-time. I am also hiring three more people soon.”For Davis, the ability to adapt has been one of the biggest advantages of the franchise model. “A lot of franchises are very cookie-cutter,” she said. “What I like about Caring Transitions is that they have given me tools but really allowed me to adapt them to my strengths and how I want to use the tools.”<h2>A Structured Start With Purpose</h2>While every franchisee’s first 90 days will look slightly different, the overall roadmap remains consistent: training, foundation-building, networking and early client work. With each step,&nbsp;<a href="https://1851franchise.com/caringtransitions/the-benefits-of-owning-a-caring-transitions-franchise-why-entrepreneurs-are-choosing-the-senior-services-industry-2731583">Caring Transitions provides the support systems</a> necessary to help new owners succeed - from operational guidance and hiring tools to marketing resources and coaching.“It’s been amazing - I’ve learned a lot,” Davis said. “It’s hard work at times, but it’s been so rewarding on so many levels that I’m really happy I made this jump.”By the end of the first three months, new franchisees typically have the fundamentals in place: a trained team, an emerging referral network and real experience helping families through some of life’s most emotional transitions. From there, the focus shifts from launching the business to scaling it by continuing to build relationships, serve clients and grow a purpose-driven operation within the community.For entrepreneurs considering franchise ownership, the first 90 days with Caring Transitions demonstrate something important: while the journey requires dedication and hard work, franchisees are never navigating it alone.For more information about franchising with Caring Transitions, visit<a href="https://1851franchise.com/caringtransitions/">&nbsp;https://1851franchise.com/caringtransitions/</a>.

What the First 90 Days Look Like as a New Caring Transitions Franchise Owner

For many couples, the dream of building something meaningful together goes beyond date nights and vacations. It’s often more about creating a shared future with purpose. Increasingly,&nbsp;<a href="https://1851franchise.com/caringtransitions/caring-transitions-cynthia-ronald-cox-hartwell-ga-2730052">couples across the country</a> are finding that franchising offers a powerful way to combine their professional strengths, personal values and long-term goals.With its full-service senior relocation, downsizing and estate sale model,&nbsp;<a href="https://www.caringtransitionsfranchise.com/">Caring Transitions</a> has become an especially attractive option for husband-and-wife teams. The brand’s structure allows partners to divide responsibilities, lean into complementary skill sets and build a business that makes a tangible difference in their community.For&nbsp;<a href="https://www.caringtransitionsofpalmharbor.com/">Ken and Nicki Leonard</a>, becoming franchise owners together was both a natural next step and a deeply personal decision.<h2>A Shared Heart for Service</h2>Before joining&nbsp;<a href="https://1851franchise.com/caringtransitions/info">Caring Transitions</a>, both Ken and Nicki had long careers rooted in helping others."I am a service-minded person," Ken said. "I started doing design work and home repair, and Nicki’s brother, who was an administrator for our county, suggested substitute teaching. I ended up being a teacher for 10 years and when COVID happened, I got out of that. Nicky is a retired registered nurse with the VA, which she did for about 20 years. She is service-minded as well.”Nicki’s health care career spanned nearly two decades. “I started as a surgical technician and eventually went back to school,” she said. “I finished out my 18-year career as a certified wound care specialist. Primarily, our work was with veterans.”After stepping away from full-time nursing and taking travel assignments, the couple began thinking more seriously about entrepreneurship. Ken had always had a side hustle, including a successful Amazon book business, and both felt the pull to build something of their own.“We got the bug of owning our own business and setting our own schedule,” Ken said.When they were approached three years ago about taking over a Caring Transitions territory near them in Palm Harbor, Florida, the concept immediately resonated.<h2>Turning Personal Experience Into Purpose</h2>For many Caring Transitions franchisees,&nbsp;<a href="https://1851franchise.com/caringtransitions/10-reasons-why-caring-transitions-stands-out-among-other-franchises-2727831">the decision to invest is deeply personal</a>. For the Leonards, it was shaped by their own family’s experience.Ken recalls struggling to help his mother from a distance when her health declined.“My mom had severe health issues, but she lived in Baltimore when I lived in Florida,” he said. “Her health started to decline and it was hard to tell from far away. On FaceTime, she seemed great, but when we came to visit her, she ended up needing surgery, and we ended up moving her to Florida. But we didn’t know what to do with the house and all of the things she had accumulated.”At the time, they didn’t know about Caring Transitions. “Had we known about Caring Transitions, we definitely would have used their services ourselves,” Ken said.Today, that lived experience fuels their empathy for clients. “As a husband-and-wife team, we can walk in and we know what that family is living through because we’ve been through it,” Ken said.Nicki adds that their professional backgrounds only deepen that connection. “We really appreciated the fact that our foundation and our professional past truly gives us a rock-solid foundation for these clients,” she said. “We are bringing a skill set that not many people have. It was really a no-brainer the more we started to get involved in the community.”<h2>A Model Built for Complementary Strengths</h2>One reason couples are drawn to Caring Transitions is&nbsp;<a href="https://1851franchise.com/caringtransitions/exploring-the-flexibility-of-owning-a-caring-transitions-franchise-how-you-can-build-a-business-that-fits-your-lifestyle-2729907">the flexibility of its service lines and operational structure</a>. The business includes senior relocation services, downsizing, estate sales and the proprietary&nbsp;<a href="https://1851franchise.com/caringtransitions/how-franchisees-can-tap-into-the-rising-trend-of-estate-sales-with-ctbids-2728327">CTBids online auction platform</a>, offering multiple revenue streams and operational roles.This allows couples to divide responsibilities based on their strengths. Some owners focus on sales and community outreach while their partner manages operations and logistics. Others leverage health care, real estate, project management or marketing experience. The model adapts to the team.For Ken and Nicki, the shared responsibility also means shared impact. “We decided to leave our 9-to-5 so we could make an impact in the community together, and it doesn’t run on the shoulders of one person,” Nicki said.That balance helps prevent burnout and creates sustainability, a key factor for couples planning long-term ownership.<h2>Flexibility That Strengthens Both Business and Marriage</h2>For many couples, franchising represents not just financial opportunity but lifestyle freedom. That was a major draw for the Leonards.“If we want to take a three-day weekend to jump in the RV and visit the family, we can because we know each other’s schedule,” Ken said. “That trust is there because we’ve been married for a while now. I don’t have to worry about somebody doing something with the company while we are gone.”That built-in trust is one of the biggest advantages&nbsp;<a href="https://1851franchise.com/caringtransitions/caring-transitions-macon-ga-jay-mcelrath-leslie-vito-2729746#stories">couples bring to franchise ownership</a>. “We can read each other’s minds. We don’t really have to talk about it,” Ken said. “But you do have to set that work-life balance, so that you aren’t always talking about business.”Nicki agrees that their communication as a husband-and-wife team has been a strength. “Our clients love that we are a husband-and-wife team, they really respond well to it,” she said.&nbsp;That dynamic can be&nbsp;<a href="https://1851franchise.com/caringtransitions/caring-transitions-a-recession-resistant-franchise-opportunity-for-entrepreneurs-2730712">especially meaningful in senior transition work</a>, where families are navigating emotional and complex life changes. Clients often find comfort in working with a team that models partnership and stability.<h2>Building a Business and a Life Together</h2>As America’s senior population continues to grow,&nbsp;<a href="https://1851franchise.com/caringtransitions/scaling-with-purpose-why-caring-transitions-owners-keep-growing-2729104">demand for compassionate, professional relocation and transition services is rising</a>. For couples seeking both opportunity and purpose, Caring Transitions offers a unique path.It’s a chance to combine skills, share responsibility and make a meaningful difference side by side.“Having a spouse that supports you is huge, we could not have done this journey without having each other as sounding boards and true business partners,” Ken said.Together, they’ve built more than a franchise. They’ve built a shared mission rooted in service, strengthened by partnership and sustained by trust.To find out more information on costs to buy this franchise, please visit&nbsp;<a href="https://1851franchise.com/caringtransitions/info">https://1851franchise.com/caringtransitions/info</a>.

For prospective franchise owners&nbsp;<a href="https://1851franchise.com/caringtransitions/what-makes-caring-transitions-the-premier-franchise-choice-for-senior-move-management-2730948">exploring opportunities in senior services</a>, territory availability is often one of the first — and most important — questions. Even after a record year of expansion,&nbsp;<a href="https://www.caringtransitionsfranchise.com/">Caring Transitions</a> still has room to grow in 2026. The brand has hundreds of locations operating nationwide, but there are still dozens of attractive markets where new owners can step in and build a territory.According to&nbsp;<a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/james-stapleton-cfe-0aa67629">Jim Stapleton</a>, Vice President of Franchise Development for&nbsp;<a href="https://1851franchise.com/caringtransitions/info">Caring Transitions</a>, that balance of maturity and opportunity is intentional.“The business can be successful anywhere,” Stapleton said. “We are addressing the needs of people who are getting older and needing help, which is always going to be a demand in every ZIP code in the U.S.”.&nbsp;<h2>How Caring Transitions Thinks About Territory</h2>Unlike traditional brick-and-mortar concepts, Caring Transitions operates as&nbsp;<a href="https://1851franchise.com/caringtransitions/why-franchising-with-caring-transitions-is-a-smart-investment-for-entrepreneurs-2731027#featured">a service-based franchise</a>, supporting seniors and their families through downsizing, estate sales, relocation and life transitions. That model allows franchisees to serve clients across homes, estates and facilities — not from a single storefront.Territories are structured around defined ZIP codes and population density —&nbsp; not only to give owners room to build a sustainable business, but also to protect and grow the long-term value of their territory as an asset.As the system has expanded over the past several years, available ZIP codes in prime markets have become more limited. That scarcity can directly increase the long-term resale value of a territory.“Because of how we’ve grown over the past six years, it allows our owners with these prime locations to really ask for a good amount for their territory itself,” Stapleton said. “If anyone wants new ZIP codes, they have to buy them from the owner. That is very good for a service-based brand.”As availability tightens in high-demand markets, territory ownership becomes more than just a service footprint — it becomes an appreciating business asset with long-term equity potential.<h2>A Record Year With Plenty of Room Left</h2>In 2025 alone, Caring Transitions&nbsp;<a href="https://1851franchise.com/caringtransitions/caring-transitions-closes-out-record-breaking-2025-with-over-400-locations-continued-growth-and-vision-for-2026-2731025#featured">awarded approximately 75 new franchises</a>, bringing the system well past 400 locations nationwide. Even so, Stapleton says opportunity remains widespread.“We have over 150 prime cities that are left across the country, as well as a lot of space in between there,” he said. “New franchisees can build equity immediately.”The brand is currently active in 48 states, with only Vermont and New Hampshire entirely unrepresented.<h2>Priority Markets Still Available in 2026</h2>Caring Transitions is a strong fit for almost any area, but right now, the brand is really focusing its franchise development efforts on places with a lot of seniors, high need for the kinds of transition services, or where it doesn’t have many franchises yet.Stapleton highlighted several key areas where the brand is actively seeking owners:<ul><li>Florida: Miami remains wide open, with a strong need for bilingual owners. Orlando is another major opportunity, along with Pensacola, Panama City and Tallahassee.</li><li>Northern California: Markets including Sacramento and Chico continue to be underrepresented.</li><li>Oregon: Multiple openings remain, including Bend.</li><li>Midwest: The Chicago metro area is currently open, along with much of Northern Indiana.</li><li>Northeast: Central New York, particularly around Syracuse, is available.</li><li>South: Memphis, Tennessee is also a priority market.</li></ul><h2>Matching the Right Owner to the Right Market</h2>Ultimately, territory availability at Caring Transitions isn’t just about filling maps. It’s about long-term alignment between the owner, the market and the mission of the brand.“It can be successful anywhere,” Stapleton said. “But how someone operates, who they serve and how they show up in their community — that’s what really determines success.”For entrepreneurs evaluating franchise opportunities in 2026, understanding where Caring Transitions is still growing — and why — can be a critical first step in building a business with both purpose and staying power.To learn more about available territories and franchise ownership with Caring Transitions, visit&nbsp;<a href="http://1851franchise.com/caringtransitions/info">1851franchise.com/caringtransitions/info</a>.

At a time when more women are pursuing business ownership as a pathway to flexibility, fulfillment and financial independence,&nbsp;<a href="https://www.caringtransitionsfranchise.com/">Caring Transitions</a> stands out as a franchise where women consistently excel. Built around senior relocation, downsizing and estate sales, the brand’s mission-driven model naturally attracts women who want to build profitable businesses rooted in compassion, service and community impact.<h2>From Health Care to Heart-Led Entrepreneurship</h2>For&nbsp;<a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/dershie-kurtz-1b77792ab">Dershie Kurtz</a>, franchise owner of&nbsp;<a href="https://www.caringtransitions.com/locations/boerne-fredericksburg-kerrville">Caring Transitions of Boerne, Fredericksburg and Kerrville</a>, the move into franchising was grounded in decades of service.“I am a physical therapist, so I’m used to working with seniors,” Kurtz said. “We owned a pediatric home health company and did that for about 10 years, which is where I got my business experience from.”After selling that company at the end of 2019, Kurtz initially stepped into retirement — but not for long. When she discovered&nbsp;<a href="https://1851franchise.com/caringtransitions/info">Caring Transitions</a> through a friend’s franchise, she immediately felt aligned with the brand’s purpose.“I loved seeing her work with seniors and helping them move,” Kurtz said. “I loved the brand. I loved the people. Everyone seems to be in it for the right reasons.”She launched her franchise in late 2022 and hasn’t looked back. “We started with our first house and really haven’t stopped since then,” she said. “We go from one house to the next. Sometimes we have two auctions up at one time.”For many women entrepreneurs, one of the biggest barriers to launching a business is the fear of doing it alone. Caring Transitions’ franchise model directly addresses that concern.“This has been a very supportive environment,” Kurtz said. “We have business coaches that we can call on anytime we need help, which is very helpful. Also, connecting with other owners is very helpful.”She especially values&nbsp;<a href="https://1851franchise.com/caringtransitions/why-franchising-with-caring-transitions-is-a-smart-investment-for-entrepreneurs-2731027">the peer-to-peer connections within the network</a>. “Sometimes I’ll gravitate to other women who are trying to run the business themselves,” she said. “We can talk and hash those things out together.”Unlike her previous independent business, where she built everything from the ground up, franchising offered a different experience. “I never felt like there wasn’t somebody I could call to help solve the issue,” she said.Her advice to other women considering the leap into business ownership is simple and direct:“Don’t be afraid to take the leap,” Kurtz said. “You put in a lot of hours, but you are helping people so it is very rewarding. If you follow the steps, you are going to be successful at it. Anytime new people come on board, all of the franchisees try to help each other out.”<h2>Designing a Business Around Relationships</h2>For&nbsp;<a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/alissa-agnoli-51780319">Alissa Agnoli</a>, owner of&nbsp;<a href="https://www.caringtransitions.com/locations/oaklandmacomb-mi">Caring Transitions of Oakland Macomb</a>, the path to franchise ownership was shaped by a career rooted in relationships and empathy. “I spent about 20 years working as a residential interior designer, but I also worked with seniors and studied senior-specific design,” Agnoli said. “I always had a passion for it.”After transitioning into marketing for a real estate team, she found herself working closely with people navigating moves and downsizing — and partnering with a local Caring Transitions franchisee.“When that franchise sold, we wanted to still be able to service the clients in the same way,” she said. “One of our business partners and I realized our brand was really missing the full range of services that Caring Transitions offers.”In 2022, she made the decision to bring the brand back to her market. “Caring Transitions really embodies everything that I want to follow in my own business,” Agnoli said. “We are very relationship-oriented. The services that we offer genuinely make a difference.”For Agnoli, the alignment was deeply personal. “It really aligned with my beliefs as an empath and a giver,” she said. “We are a very big problem solver in helping clients navigate their issues. Helping them solve their problems and their stressors is why we went with Caring Transitions.”Caring Transitions’ model — combining relocation services, downsizing support and online estate auctions — creates&nbsp;<a href="https://1851franchise.com/caringtransitions/how-franchisees-can-tap-into-the-rising-trend-of-estate-sales-with-ctbids-2728327">multiple revenue streams</a> within a single, mission-driven business. But what truly differentiates the brand is the culture.For Agnoli, fulfillment is central to the equation. “For me, it’s all about finding what fills your cup,” she said. “You have to be happy when you are working every day and running a business. You have to find something that makes a difference and makes you feel like you accomplished what you wanted.”<h2>A Franchise Where Women Thrive</h2>As Women’s History Month celebrates the trailblazers of the past, Caring Transitions highlights the women building the future — women who left corporate careers for more meaningful work, women who built businesses aligned with their values and women who are creating local impact through compassionate service.“It’s all about helping people,” Kurtz said. “This business has been such a blessing — a way to use my experience and passion to really make a difference in people’s lives.”Some days are joyful — meeting new clients and celebrating fresh starts. Others are emotional — helping families who have lost a loved one. But for many women franchisees, that meaningful work is exactly the point.“It’s all about finding the right company and the right business to be able to grow as a woman in business,” Agnoli said. “Caring Transitions is a perfect fit.”To find out more information on costs to buy this franchise, please visit&nbsp;<a href="https://1851franchise.com/caringtransitions/info">https://1851franchise.com/caringtransitions/info</a>.
