Honestly I know how much resiliency this couple and all your guests posses in order to run and sustain a business. This field is hard and often times the people running these types of businesses aren’t recognized because you have your head down working trying to compete with the big businesses like they said. These other companies can squash you if you don’t stay diligent. Respect to them!
@@brittanymayo1528 I’m interested in this field because I have always wanted to be a clinical psychologist…but..not perform therapy. Do you mind sharing the credentials you needed to break in?
@@allanaingram8691 Hello, It depends on what state you're trying to do it in as well as what services you want to offer because the qualifications vary. Typically, there needs to be at least 2 owners and one that is a licensed therapist, social worker, psychologist, RN, or psychiatrist. There a few services you can offer where you can just hire the credentialed person without ownership.
I’ve been doing this since 2015....yes it’s a lot of work however, working for the “white man” is just as hard, yet you pay more taxes and reap LESS reward being an “employee”. To the point...the “black” culture has been lost for a long time now! It’s time to “level up”
@Social Proof What stood out to me the most was that your sincere inquisitiveness gave way to you milking SO MUCH information out of them! I'm so interested but cannot afford the Start-up & pks Licensing pkg
@Mike Johnson I agree with you, she is so excited becuz they are winning and I love it, to see Black women excited like this is a great thing, Brad and his wife is doing the damn thing. This is my 3th time watching am no doubt getting the course.
It was never $20.00 When they said nineteen ninety five... they meant $1,995.⁰⁰. That's why they always dance around saying what the price is in so many of these podcasts pushing courses... No shade, but just saying
Two great people. They were so passionate , there were a lot of interruptions and word crashing, They really got me interested. Thanks for this interview, David.
What she saying is absolutely correct. A lot of people don't know that they can get services. I help Seniors ALL THE TIME because I have a love for them and it's a lot that they do not know. PS. I don't have a lot of time to save my licence. U have a certain amount of hours the U Have to put in. In order to keep ur licence. My last time working as a CNA was the Monday before Thanksgiving 2020. I Truly don't like the hand that I have been forced to take. I won't step out of my safe zone right now just to be paid $10.00 a hour. Not right now being that I don't have to pay for any medical bills or medication. Unless I'm covered financially. ❤ to live I have to at least make more then $10. To $12 a hour. And I live in a RETIREMENT COUNTY where a lot of these services are Desperately Need. ESPECIALLY, ESPECIALLY the Transportation services. Also where I Live...... There are " NO " BUSES 🚌.. WISH I HAD THAT BREAK
As someone that’s in the Homecare industry in a different state I find the numbers mentioned exaggerated.. the patients with those high amount hours are there but not as frequent as it made seem.. the majority of patients has between 14-30 hrs weekly, and the majority of the “nurses” which they should say home health aides are people who want to work cases with less hours bc its less work so they can sit and be on their phones for majority of the shifts..the high turn over coupled with McDonald’s and Aldis paying $12-15 an hour is creating a shortage of employees. Government is also reluctant in pumping more money in Medicaid so we can pay aides good competitive wages with Amazon and Walmart etc. All in all a good industry, the pros outweigh the cons- and if you see folks creating consulting courses for any industry it’s not from the kindness of their heart but more as an income stream. Lastly, I call cap on the $1M in their first year story.. it simply isn’t going to happen especially with unskilled services. To scale that you would need close to 100 patients, 30 patients they were doing 6 figures, not 7.
Thank you for another perspective. I'm troubled by the number of these folks with dollar signs in their eyes, only talking best case scenario of how much money you can make. I hope these business owners are careful and truly care about their clients.
Had to come back & give my feedback. Due to me trying to save coins I purchased this course (instead of Gooch’s, which I recommend) and I have to say that it is NOT worth $900 at all. They’re basically sharing the same information in their RU-vid interview videos (they are either VERY tight on sharing information or creating courses is not for them). All the modules are videos of them talking for about 5 min or so, through out the course they mention links in their videos and there are NO links (you’ll actually see people commenting that underneath the module videos with no response), there are NO screen shares just short videos of them talking, she hardly talks in the videos, he does most of the talking and lastly ALL the information that Gooch has given in his interviews for FREE are basically in their course so you can save your money. One thing that I’ve learned from purchasing a course is the more information someone is willing to give in their interviews the better their course is.
To my knowledge Gooch actually learned from them which is why I decided to get their course and not only that but it was cheaper. However I do recommend Gooch’s course although it is more but it’s worth it bc it has more to offer.
Did you find it was enough information to get started? I’m currently looking to do this in my state. However I know states has different rules so seeing if it’s worth it to at least get Goochs.
Thank you for this feedback! I can't follow these two. I'm sure they're knowledgeable but I don't think training or interviewing is their thing. I learned a lot from just 1 of Gooch's interviews. The only thing they talk about here is program program program and they don't elaborate on anything!
What they're not telling you is that the business changes drastically when trump was in office. They were making way more for less effort before he went into office and alot of them are transitioning because it's too much involved to make those types of numbers these days. A lot of the ones in my town are starting trucking companies now.. thats why they're consulting.. it's easier to get paid that way and pass the paton to others.
I love the idea of helping people & making splendid money simultaneously!😊 It's also personal for me growing up with two autistic brothers. Having outside care is crucial but most families are unaware of programs. My bros are my 💗 & inspiration 💯 Thanks David😊
This right here hit home HARD... I have an adult son with mental issues and I need to provide a home health care service for him. He has “Medicaid” but they will not approve a CNA b/c he can bath and clean himself. BUT.. they don’t consider ALL the things he can’t do .. cook, clean, wash laundry, grocery store shopping, pick meds up etc. So I’m deciding to get licensed myself.. can this program help me? I’m in the state of New Jersey🙏🏾
How do you get over the constant staffing shortages and turn over ?I have a agency in Cincinnati oh . The money is there this is true my first year made great money but by the time we pay out over time were barely breaking profit and good reliable staff is so hard to find . I am constantly working and canceling plans. Do they offer private consultation for existing business needing assistance to restructure ?
Hey Toniera. I’ve had similar issues in Michigan in my business. I’d love to connect and hear more about how things are going in your business. Considering opening in a few more states and looking to network.
On staffing shortages go to "indeed" and register or apply. They will help you get staffing. There are so many agencies that do that these days. This industry is good. Less work, way more money than a 9-5pm for sure. At the beginning you have to be very patient, do lots of marketing for your company. Please don't forget your goal is to service your clients, the money will follow.
I wonder if it’s worth opening in my state of Pennsylvania. My daughter has been asking me to open one with her for a few months now. I am interested in running in home care and I have experience from 2001
I encourage you to do it. I am in NJ and I am sooo glad I've found this. My son has CP and good qualified nursing care is very much needed. But I do believe you have to have a heart for it and not just be in it for the money. Some nurses have no business being in the home care field.
@@ingagillett-spio7567 I really appreciate your encouragement I am so happy you went through with it. I am definitely consider doing it. There are so many ways to approach this venture. 🤔☺️
Why don't Ms. Ghi hire someone to do the extra 2 sheets of paper so they can be 14 million dollar Company. Hire me to do the paper work. I'm not far from Georgia. I'm in NC
Can you get speakers who are knowledgeable about a Texas program? I bought a program from one of your guest and didn’t know about the extra costs and just got a lot of promises. I am glad they said upfront they don’t know other states yet.
@Supporter Sandra I’ve been on the Texas website, but it doesn’t cover the business aspect of how to find clients and nurses who want to do administrative work. The total costs of running this business. I like that this couple has a FB page for collaboration. Are you in Texas?
Yeah, I’m in texas and got licensed. The course is just an introduction, there’s wayyyy more to deal with you. If you don’t have prior business experience it’ll be tough.
I didn't really like their energy together it didn't seem in sync with them constantly talking over one another especially her constantly wanting to be heard. The industry is dope but their course seems meh due to them not wanting to give away the sauce which is why people would be wanting to pay. The husband is a pretty good speaker though.
@@RealSocialProof Brad's podcast led me to Gooch's podcast. We are on our way! Thank you for providing great content! Hey I have a business thats working wonders with minimal oversight...I would love to present on your platform.
This was an informative session & I have shared it with family. Nice couple but the wife needs to curb her excitement & let her husband complete a sentence. It is obvious that he adores her which makes for a dynamic duo. I wish them well.
@Jonathan Brown Yeah he was a much better speaker… and that’s no shade to her… we all have our strengths and weaknesses. It seemed like she was just trying to “get to the point” but he was much better at telling a story and making it interesting. I was getting frustrated watching it Lol but I could tell she was just excited
@Buttaf1ngazz he should of left her at home Lol. Public speaking is not her strength. But in all seriousness, she was just really passionate. Hopefully she let’s him speak more in any future interviews they have.
I own a non medical home care company in the Midwest and we have to bill for at least 665 hours per week to gross $1mil a year with just Medicaid clients. Plus you need about 22 caregivers working approximately 30 hours weekly. It’s not easy but it is doable! Great discussion! 🤎
@@RealSocialProof there were a lot things. 1st, they're working 8-10 hours/wk providing care that is much needed in most urban cities. 2nd, the unskilled/ skilled information they provided. 3rd, the ridiculous amount of different angles of mental and physical health care a Home Healthcare provider could perform. 4th, the truthfulness of some of the losses they've experienced and why it happened. 5th has to be how they bounced back to 6.5 million/yr. 6th is the importance of not focusing solely on the money, but the focus being on the quality of care you provide, sharing knowledge with families who need some type of guidance towards receiving respite for the issues and barriers that the families/ guardians experience on a daily basis, while also giving them somewhat of a new lease on life to breathe a bit without worry of the care provided for their loved one(s). A family member being able to work while care is provided is one the #1 issue I've observed in this field over the last 20 years which sometimes doesn't allow them to really meet their immediate need at times which may cause frustration. Final point which was critical, was the families being informed on how they can receive moneys for providing care for a love one which you mentioned with your late uncle🙏🏿. The interview gave both personal information as well as entrepreneurial information with a brief explanation of how important those 85 pages of State Regulations are needed for licensing, the importantance in relation to the timeliness of becoming licensed as a provider and receiving client referrals afterwards.
Hi David, I'm avid listener of your podcast and I would thank you for providing valuable information! I just finished listening to this podcast and I have a couple of questions and I wanted know if these guest have an email. Thanks again!
@@RealSocialProof As always it is the content and how they have achieved what ever they have that fascinates me most, obviously the delivery will cause an affect in different ways ...... and its 1 am in the morning so i will go back to sleep
No it’s not. Unless you can afford paying for an office space before you even get the license or clients. And if you can find a nurse willing to work for you. Can’t pay them minimum wage.
In PA, there is a program that if your income is too high, the payment is prorated based on income and your medical expenses are discounted and/or reimbursed.
Sometimes it is difficult but they said that they pay & treat them well, like family & they have above average retention of staff of 4 years. If you do the right thing as the employer it is likely that folks that work for you will conduct themselves accordingly.
@@Aqueenlee This is absolutely true! I have been in Healthcare for about 25 years and I've always been asked how do I get people to work on my shifts including the weekends. 80% is about respect and maintaining a positive culture. The other is pay or at least acknowledging the work of the individual staff. This couple seems to be awesome people to work for if I was an employee.
Yes! I would have loved to hear him get his point across uninterrupted. I applaud his patience but she made it seem like he was incompetent in the business by not working as a cohesive team and cutting him off mid-sentence so much.
@@MI-zz3mc I think she’s just really excited and didn’t realize she was doing that. You definitely can’t run a healthcare business if you’re not passionate about it, because it is a headacheeee 😩
@@RealSocialProof I was providing services out of my home for 15 years, and didn’t even know the home health unskilled side even exist! I immediately went to my computer seeking information from the state website! Give me 12 to 14 months , and I will me sitting down telling my story with you 😀 Your show jus Created another millionaire, Thx you 💃🏿💃🏿💃🏿❤️
What they said about states only wanting to work with larger organizations is true. I work and a organization nonprofit that does group homes and a heads. And the larger companies in our area are buying up all the smaller group homes
Yep. That’s exactly what happens to all small businesses from Mom and Pop Airbnbs, Restaurants to Group Home etc. People still don’t realize the serious consequences of the current administration laws and regulations that are implemented one by one in different states. Hopefully people will make up before is too late to make a change.
I usually love these interviews but this one doesn't sit to well with me. $4,000? I have some many questions 🤔 how much are these low income families being charged/elderly? When they can call their insurance company about services and fill out applications for free. Maybe I need to watch again for more clarity. How do they handle abuse and neglect accusations???
A lot of these families with disabilities have Medicaid/Medicare and have a waiver qualifying them for these services . it’s billed through the state and the state cuts the check directly to you .The financials are not the families responsibility . @Camille McCY
Some nursing homes and senior living with nurses charge waaay more than that (like 6-8K plus) a month. But most if not all of these clients have government subsidies any way so it's not an out of pocket cost. Since virtually no one could afford that, unless they were well off.
She might have meant well but it came off really chatty. They should do separate interviews in the future b/c the interruptions were over the top for me. A great conversation is formed between people who speak one person at a time.
How much are they paying their nurses? She said they get $40/hr for 120 hours a week. Nurses are generally getting paid at LEAST $30/hr. So are they only profiting $10/hr.
@@RealSocialProof thank you for broadcasting this 💎. What stood out the most to me was how they started off with the actual personal care homes then transitioned into other areas in the same field and was able to do so very effectively and successfully. You can tell the wheels in their minds never stopped turning and they were always looking to improve their business and gain momentum for their income levels. It just puts bright a smile to my face. 😀
For someone that’s lazy as she say she is, she sure can talk a lot. I was kinda wondering if Chad was gonna get a whole sentence out without interruption 🤷🏾♂️
Hell they never broke down skilled vs unskilled. They have some knowledgeable information just not good in explaining. I'm very interested in this business but this interview wouldn't make me want to pay for their program or consulting.
Non skilled is personal care services like bathing & respite care. Skilled nursing will require a LPN or RN : gtube feeds, trach suctioning, medication administration etc
The business seems very practical but when they were asked about doing this in other states, there seemed to be a slight hesitation imo. Can it be done in NY?
