Home Helpers is out for money only! Do not get involved with this organization. I am speaking to all with sincerity and concern. I do not want anyone to go through what myself and many other franchisees have gone through.
They promise you the world during the corporate visit, and then you never hear from them again. Do not believe Gary at all. Do not believe Emily Dickinson. Do not believe Mercedes Schneider. Do Not believe Jeff Seihl.
If you do decide to get involved please review the contract with an attorney.
1. Realize that you have to pay for the support offered, which was NOT disclosed in the intital meetings.
2. Do realize that you have to pay for the ElderCare Link leads and service and anything other service offered through HH Franchising.
3. Do realize that you have to pay minimum royalties of 300.00 even if you're not in business.
4. Do ask about how to get out of the business. It's of no benefit to the franchisee.
A. Option 1: You sell it yourself
B. Option 2: They sell it for you. If they don't sell it within 6 months, they automatically take it from you.
5. Do realize that no one will help you.
6. Do realize that they make up charges.
7. Do ask about turnover rate in the area you're wanting to purchase.
8. Do ask about what they do with the 150.00/month marketing fee.
9. Do realize that no one will come to your home and help you set up like a few other home care franchisees. There is no corporate presence in each state like some other franchises.
10. Do call other existing franchisees about their experiences with corporate. Search for locations online, and call them. Don't use the contacts given by corporate. If anyone is interested in a class action, please respond.
