Independent owner/operators

Are you a multi-generational, family-owned community considering bringing in outside management for the first time?

Or are you working with a management company, and you are wondering if there is a better option?

In either case, you’re turned off by “cookie cutter” solutions and insist on an approach that is designed and tailored to your specific community.

TruNorth understands you might be hesitant to bring in a new, outside resource, for fear that it could compromise your community culture and values. Respecting our customers’ culture and values is one of our core values!

We know your local market has unique characteristics. We won’t come in and change things just for change’s sake.

Here’s what TruNorth brings to the party for independent owners like you:

  • We’ll assess your community infrastructure and approach to branding and make recommendations on how to level things up for you.
  • Our team of independent senior living professionals will complement your existing staff with professional training and virtual support.
  • We can often enhance your marketing campaigns with more effective lead generation and sophisticated sales training.
  • We can help you strengthen your sense of community with support that’s tailored precisely to your situation. Let us help take your team from good to great with a clear vision and commitment to ongoing learning.
  • And if your community is in need of a refresh — or even a total makeover —let’s talk about how to make this happen without “throwing the baby out with the bathwater.”

Are you living with any of these issues?

  • Occupancy below 80%
  • Over-relying on outside staffing agencies
