Senior living and home care agencies · Digital marketing

Decide each month whether the money goes to families or to hiring aides.

Digital marketing for senior living and home care is the plan that settles what goes to search, paid ads, email and the directories each month, across families and caregiver hiring. GullySales writes that plan, names who owns each piece, and reports it against move-ins and shifts filled.

What digital marketing means

Digital marketing is the combined work of search, social media, advertising and website channels running together rather than as separate projects with separate people. GullySales runs these as one connected system so a change in one channel, such as a new offer, is reflected everywhere at once.

Sales and marketing for senior living and home care agencies, the overview.

Last updated 5 Oct 2026. Rules for this trade differ by state and professional body, and they change. We describe restrictions in general terms, so check the current position with your own council or adviser before you publish anything.

For senior living and home care agencies

Where it usually goes wrong, and what we would do.

  • “Two audiences, one budget, nobody refereeing”

    An agency turning away hours needs applicants more than enquiries this month. Somebody has to make that call in writing and look at it again in thirty days.

  • “The person doing your marketing is on a tour”

    Community relations runs the newsletter, the events and the posts between showings. The work stops in exactly the weeks the showings go well.

  • “Placement fees belong inside the budget”

    The fee on one directory move-in is often the largest marketing line of the month, and it usually sits in a different ledger entirely.

What we do

What we deliver for senior living and home care agencies.

Every deliverable, what it covers for you, and the result it is there to produce. Nothing here is an extra.

  1. A month by month plan with the split written in

    What goes to search, ads, email, events and directory placements, and how much of the total is pointed at hiring rather than at families.

    Result: Every line has a decision behind it.

  2. One named owner and a fixed slot

    The work given to a person rather than to a department, with a short list due each week and the drafting already done for them.

    Result: Marketing survives the week three families arrive at once.

  3. Referral visits scheduled beside the advertising

    Discharge desk visits, physiotherapist calls and doctor meetings planned in the same calendar as the ad spend, since both want the same person's hours.

    Result: Nobody chooses between visiting the hospital and posting online.

  4. The holiday season prepared in September

    Adult children see a parent's decline over Thanksgiving and Christmas, so the pages, ads and emails for that fortnight are written and approved beforehand.

    Result: You are ready for the weeks that make families act.

  5. Caregiver hiring run as its own campaign

    Separate advertising, an application answered within hours, and its own report, kept out of the numbers you use to judge family marketing.

    Result: Applicants stop being counted as enquiries.

  6. One report covering both sides

    Enquiries and move-ins on one page, applicants and hires on the next, each read against the baseline recorded when work starts.

    Result: You can move money between them with evidence.

How the result is measured

  • Enquiries across channels
  • Cost per enquiry overall
  • Channel mix by contribution

Recorded as a baseline before work starts, so every later report has an honest comparison.

Where to start for care providers

Be reachable when a family calls in a crisis, then build the referral sources behind it.

A staffed number and a tour path
Complete the Business Profile with accurate care types and give one number that is answered on weekends. Record calls by day and whether a tour or assessment was booked.
A page for each type of care
Write separate pages for memory care, respite stays and hourly home care, saying plainly what is included and how a family begins. Note the page behind each enquiry.
A referral log for discharge planners
List hospital discharge desks, physiotherapists, neurologists and geriatricians, with visit dates and the families each sent. Visit the ones who send before adding new names.
Caregiver hiring on its own page
Give hiring a separate page and budget from family enquiries, and record applications and shifts filled. Mixing them hides what each is costing.
Placement fees against your own channels
Set what a directory or placement service charges per move-in beside what your own channels cost. Keep both on one sheet.
What to leave until later
Video tours and broad social ads can wait until calls are answered and the referral log is in use.

Who it is for

This is written for these senior living and home care agencies.

  • Old age homes and senior citizen homes with residential rooms
  • Dementia and Alzheimer's care homes, and homes with a dedicated memory wing
  • Senior living apartments and retirement communities
  • Home nursing and attendant agencies that send staff to a family's house
  • Home health care services that arrange nurses, physiotherapy and equipment at home
  • Franchise home care branches marketing in their own neighbourhood
  • Small care homes run from a converted house or a floor of a building
  • Day care centres for seniors, and short-stay or respite rooms
  • Providers that run both a residential home and a home care service

Not for

It is not the right fit if.

  • You want a guaranteed Google ranking or a guaranteed number of leads. Nobody honest can promise either.
  • You need enquiries by next week and have nobody to answer them.
  • You want posts and reach reported, not enquiries and orders.

How it works

From your first message to the first report.

No open-ended retainer. Every step gives you something in writing.

  1. First

    Your brief

    You tell us what you need in a few short steps: your business, what you want, where enquiries come from and how they are handled.

  2. After the brief

    A conversation and a written scope

    We read it, then talk with whoever handles your enquiries. If you want our help, the scope, the fee and the reporting come in writing, and nothing starts before you have read them.

  3. Before work starts

    Baseline recorded

    Enquiries by source, reply time, conversion and cost per order, written down so every later report has an honest comparison.

  4. After the baseline

    The first fix goes live

    The fix we agreed to start with is put in place and measured against the baseline, whether that is reply time, a follow-up sequence, the page buyers land on or the handover between marketing and sales.

  5. As agreed

    Report against the baseline

    What moved, what did not, and what changes next, in plain words. How often you get it is set in writing before work starts.

  6. At renewal

    Renew on the numbers

    The term ends and you decide whether to continue from the results. The length is agreed in writing before anything starts.

How the digital marketing work runs

  1. 1

    Understand the objective

    We agree the one thing this campaign needs to achieve before choosing any channel.

  2. 2

    Audit available channels

    We assess which channels are realistic to run well within the budget and timeline.

  3. 3

    Strategise the central idea

    One message and offer is developed that will work across every planned channel.

  4. 4

    Implement across channels

    Each channel receives its own adapted version, launched on a shared timeline.

  5. 5

    Measure as one campaign

    Results from every channel are combined into a single report against the original objective.

Why us

Why owners pick GullySales over an agency.

  • Marketing and sales, as one job

    Most agencies stop at the enquiry. We also fix what happens after it: the reply, the follow-up, the quote and the CRM.

  • The person on the first call does the work

    No account managers in between. You are never handed to someone you have not met.

  • A baseline before anything starts

    Your numbers are written down on day one, so every later report compares against something honest.

  • The fee in writing, split three ways

    Our time, your media spend and production on separate lines. You always see what goes to us.

  • No guarantees we cannot keep

    The term is agreed in writing and never a default twelve months. We never promise a ranking or a lead count, because nobody controls those.

  • One office, and we say so

    Nagarbhavi, Bengaluru. We work across India by call and WhatsApp and travel when a session needs to be in person.

#257, 3rd floor, Sri Nanjundeshwara Complex, Nagarbhavi 8th Block, Outer Ring Road. How we work.

FAQ

Questions owners ask before they call.

Not here? More answers, or ask on WhatsApp.

Tell us what you need
Who owns this if we have no marketing person?
One named person with a fixed slot each week, even if that is the administrator. Left to whoever is free, it stops the week a family crisis fills the diary. We do the drafting and the reporting around that person.
How soon do we see something change?
At the interval agreed at the start you see the numbers move against the baseline: enquiries by source, time to first call, tours, move-ins and caregiver applicants. Senior living decisions run long, so enquiries and reply times shift well before occupancy does.
Should the website say what the care costs?
Say what sets the price, such as level of care, room type or hours, and how a family gets a written quote. Families leave when nothing is explained. Whether to publish figures is your decision, but at least describe the basis and what is included.
A family found us on search, then a hospital discharge desk recommended us. Which source is it?
Both, in separate columns: first contact and referrer. The search may have supplied the name and the planner the decision. Keep both on the record, and over time the pattern shows which referral sources to visit and which ads to trim.
Would your team be speaking to our families?
Only as far as you want. We can take the first call, record the situation and book the tour, then hand anything clinical or emotional to your own nurse or director. Or you keep every family conversation in-house and use us for the follow-up schedule, the referral records and the reporting. The line is drawn after our first conversation and written down.
How do you handle health details?
Access to any patient or resident detail is agreed in writing before work starts, and for this work we do not need it. Your profile, your pages and your enquiry records run on addresses, services and photographs, not on health records.
How long is the contract?
The term is agreed in writing after we have spoken, along with the fee and the reporting. It is never a default twelve months, and renewal is decided on the numbers against the baseline recorded at the start.
Who will actually do the work?
The person you speak to before anything starts. We work from one office in Nagarbhavi, Bengaluru, with no account managers in between.
What do you need from us?
Your brief, and a conversation. After that, access to whatever this work touches, such as your website, your accounts or your enquiry record, and time with the people who handle your enquiries.
What if we are not happy with the work?
Tell us and the plan changes. Everything is reported against the baseline, so a number that is not moving is visible to both sides. The term is in your written scope, and the refund and cancellation policy sets out the rest.
