Helping Care Homes Thrive
Customer-focused sales and marketing strategies that drive occupancy and grow revenue.
Is Your Care Home Missing Opportunities to Grow?
Do any of these sound familiar?
- Low or inconsistent occupancy, with no clear strategy to generate high-quality leads or improve conversion rates
- Marketing activity that’s not delivering, leaving you with too few qualified enquiries
- Inconsistent enquiry handling and poor conversion from show rounds, despite high care standards, resulting in missed opportunities and lost move-ins.
- A team lacking confidence in handling sensitive conversations and guiding families through decision-making
- Occupancy that looks good on paper, but profitability suffers due to a shortfall in self-funded, long-term residents

Every empty bed is a missed opportunity- not just for revenue, but to make a difference in someone’s life.
To grow occupancy and optimise revenue, your care home needs more than just offering great care- it needs clear, confident messaging that builds connection, and a sales process that demonstrates empathy, offers reassurance and builds trust from the first interaction.

Interim or Fractional Sales and Marketing Leadership
Providing high-impact strategic direction and execution to accelerate lead generation and conversion, ensuring commercial performance during periods of transition or growth.
What our clients say
“We needed support to boost our occupancy, which had plateaued at around 84%. Ali carried out a comprehensive marketing and sales audit to identify gaps and opportunities across our entire commercial approach. She reviewed all marketing channels – both online and offline – from lead generation through to messaging, positioning, and conversion effectiveness.
Ali brought both strategic clarity and practical solutions. She not only showed us what to do but worked with us to make it happen. Highly recommend her to any operator serious about improving occupancy and commercial performance”
Howard Segal
Owner, Wray Common Nursing & Residential Home
“Ali’s expertise has been invaluable during the critical pre-launch phase of our new care home.
Her deep understanding of what needs to happen in the run-up to opening, combined with her ability to set out a clear timeline to optimise the required activities, has positioned us to achieve strong occupancy quickly while minimising costs.
It’s very rare to find someone so skilled in both marketing and sales within the care home sector, and her guidance has been instrumental in preparing us for a successful launch.“
