GoodOaks Homecare Franchising

🥂 What a 24 hours!

Yesterday was one for the books....

By day, we were named WorkBuzzWorkBuzz Best Franchise – Management, and by night, we picked up the Franchisor of the Year – Expanding award at British Franchise Association Awards. Not a bad shift!

These awards mean a huge amount to us and are a real reflection of the passion, commitment and care shown by everyone across the GoodOaks network.

And of course, a big thank you to the BFA team for an unforgettable conference and evening celebrating everything that’s great about franchising. We’re still smiling (and maybe still carrying our trophies around the office… 🏆 )

What do I need working capital for? 💰

When it comes to starting a GoodOaks Homecare franchise, working capital plays a crucial role. Unlike many other businesses, homecare has relatively low overheads—no need for large stock, equipment, or machinery.

However, your working capital serves as your financial buffer during the initial growth phase, ensuring you can cover any shortfalls as your income catches up with your overheads.

During the first 2-3 years, as you expand, managing cash flow will be key, especially during periods of high growth. Having the right amount of working capital will help navigate fluctuations and provide peace of mind.

Ready to start your franchise journey? Let’s talk about how working capital plays into your long-term success.
