Griswold

When Lisa Hall decided to leave her established career in the automotive industry, she knew she had to take the opportunity to do something meaningful. Coming from a family of entrepreneurs, Hall recognized an exciting chance to start a business of her own, take control of her destiny and give back to those in her community.&nbsp;“My whole family is made up of business owners,” said Hall. “My husband, son, and father all own businesses, and my daughter is in the process of opening her own business. So I thought that business ownership made sense for me. I was never opposed to franchising, but I never thought about it before looking into it myself. I’m at the point in my life and career where I want to ensure that I would have support and proper training for whatever I choose. That’s why franchising appealed to me — because I knew I would have that background help.”During her search, Hall found several home care businesses that interested her, but nothing stood out like&nbsp;<a href="https://www.griswoldhomecare.com/franchising/?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=why-this-former-engineering-manager-is-supporting-and-caring-for-elders-with-griswold-home-care-2720082" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Griswold Home Care</a>. Founded in 1982 as the first non-medical home care franchise in the United States, Griswold Home Care is backed by over 40 years of experience providing quality home care to the elderly, disabled adults, and individuals recovering from illnesses. Griswold was founded by&nbsp;<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jean_Griswold?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=why-this-former-engineering-manager-is-supporting-and-caring-for-elders-with-griswold-home-care-2720082" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Dr. Jean Griswold</a>, a senior care professional who had multiple sclerosis (MS) and recognized firsthand that the elderly often lacked the assistance they needed to remain independent at home.“I initially made a spreadsheet and went through everything regarding the brands I was considering,” said Hall. “I looked through the territories and their demographics to the training processes of each brand. I was amazed by the support and confidence I got talking with the Griswold Home Care corporate team. The amount of support and experience they bring to the table is fantastic, so I went with them. After my discovery day at Griswold Home Care, I was completely sold. I followed that instinct, and I’m so glad I did. They did training even before I took over the business, and even now, as I officially step into my role as owner, I have calls planned out with the corporate team to make sure I succeed.”But it wasn’t just the&nbsp;<a href="https://1851franchise.com/griswoldhomecare/how-a-griswold-home-care-ownership-transfer-fulfilled-two-dreams-at-once-2716306#featured">support of the franchisor</a> that drew Hall to the Griswold brand — she was also passionate about the senior care service she could offer.&nbsp;“I really felt compelled to do this,” Hall said. “My mother-in-law was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s, and I know personally how hard it is for a family to watch someone go through that. At the time, we didn’t realize that there were options like Griswold Home Care that would come to her and make her life a bit easier. That’s why I love this business and this industry. I want to make that experience a little easier for other families and help relieve a bit of their stress.”Now, after officially opening in August, Hall is excited to begin her journey as a business owner of one of the country’s top home care companies and provide this&nbsp;<a href="https://1851franchise.com/griswoldhomecare/as-the-demand-for-in-home-senior-care-increases-griswold-home-care-leads-the-pack-2715667">essential service</a> to her community.&nbsp;“My past customer service experience and dealing with quality issues will help me succeed and stand out,” said Hall. “I also plan on bringing more marketing to my three territories. I want people to know that we are here to help and bring peace of mind to them, and I think the best way to do that is to get the word out. I also think my passion for this industry will stand out. I want to ensure that my business supports local causes that align with our values. For example, we are sponsoring the local Alzheimer's walk.”Looking ahead, Hall says growth is definitely in her future. “My plan is to market the brand in my area and really reach out to people who might not have heard of the brand or this type of service before,” she said. “And there are a lot of untapped markets that I eventually want to look at buying.”<a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/michael-slupecki-08b2288?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=why-this-former-engineering-manager-is-supporting-and-caring-for-elders-with-griswold-home-care-2720082" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Mike Slupecki</a>, CEO of Griswold Home Care, says the corporate team is equally excited about what Hall can achieve with the brand. “We are delighted to welcome Lisa to the Griswold team,” he said. “We are looking forward to growing in Dallas, and the opportunity to do so with a franchisee who has such a personal connection to what we do makes this transition that much more meaningful.”Franchise opportunities range from&nbsp;$95,850 to $174,100 including a $49,500 franchise fee.
