For UK social care providers
You're too dependent on LA referrals, and you want more self-funding residents
Self-funding residents generate considerably more revenue per week than LA-funded placements. But attracting them requires digital visibility, family confidence-building, and a differentiated proposition that most providers haven't built.

From Paul
Tell me where that £115,200 is coming from, and I'll come back with the three things to fix first.
A few quick questions, about two minutes, and no typing. I read every one myself and reply with the three things costing you most and where I'd start. If it's useful, we talk. If not, you've still got a clear picture.
No obligation, no sales call unless you ask for one, and nothing automated lands in your inbox.
