Family Caregivers and Seniors Invited to Help Create a Buzz in the Elder Care Industry |
|
|
|
by Barbara MascioThe demand for Senior Approved Services from the consumer (family caregivers and seniors) requires the ability to recommend and endorse safe reliable companies. Founder of Senior Approved Services, Barbara Mascio, is asking all family caregivers and seniors to help create a buzz in the elder care industry.
"You can help us build our network of Certified Senior Approved Services so that we can better serve you", welcomes Ms. Mascio who further comments, "I feel so bad when we receive an inquiry call from a family that has contacted us knowing that we will only endorse and recommend a service that has a proven history of quality care, and then we have to tell them, sorry we dont have a business in your area." Taking some good advice from author, Malcolm Gladwell who wrote the book, The Tipping Point, the staff at Senior Approved Services has come up with a fun contest to create that industry buzz. Family caregivers and seniors are encouraged to send a page inviting businesses to consider going through the required consumer-driven survey process in order to be added to the exclusive network of services. The contest will give away cash prizes of One Hundred Dollars, Fifty Dollars and Twenty Five Dollars - each month - to the person (s) that has sent the most email invitations. Barbara asks, "Help us build our network - help us get the message to the elder care industry that you - the consumer - prefer to contract with a Certified Senior Approved Service." See http://www.seniorsapprove.com/contest.html for all the details.
