They weren\u2019t focused on just numbers or financial projections \u2013 they were focused on the people.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Mark and Gemma began speaking with CareYourWay about franchise opportunities in late 2023. What sealed their decision to join was a visit to our head office in South Devon, where they met the Sabater family, who founded and run the business.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe instantly felt that family culture from meeting everyone. Everything was about delivering outstanding care and changing people\u2019s lives for the better. That completely aligned with our values and we just knew it was the right decision for us.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>During this discovery stage, Mark and Gemma were also encouraged to speak with current franchisees to learn more about their experiences.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe spoke with Sobia and Shahid at CareYourWay Hertfordshire. They reinforced the key message: focus on the quality of care, and everything else will follow. That stuck with us and made us even more certain we were making the right decision.\u201d<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"feeling-supported-every-step-of-the-way-through-the-launch-process\"><\/span><strong>Feeling supported every step of the way through the launch process<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>The couple signed their franchise agreement in October 2024, almost a year to the day after their initial conversations with the head office team.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe wanted to self-fund our franchise, so we took our time in getting everything in place,\u201d says Mark.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe actually signed the agreement the day before CareYourWay\u2019s annual conference, so we immediately travelled down and met the wider franchise network.

Everything is covered, from systems and scheduling, to compliance and finance. And if you ever need extra support, the head office team is always right there to help you. They even put on tailored sessions to meet your needs.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Their CQC application process was completed in February 2025 \u2013 which was fast tracked thanks to the head office\u2019s extensive experience in securing the approval \u2013 paving the way for CareYourWay Chichester to open its doors.<\/p>\n<p>The business officially launched in April 2025, with their first client signing up after just three weeks.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe feeling of signing our first client was incredible,\u201d recalls Mark. \u201cThat early validation was huge for us and we couldn\u2019t wait to start making a positive impact on the life of the client and their family.\u201d<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"rapidly-building-a-reputation-for-excellence\"><\/span><strong>Rapidly building a reputation for excellence<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>After securing their first client, momentum built quickly.<\/p>\n<p>In the following month, another four clients were on the books, with Gemma helping to deliver the care.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe underestimated how quickly things would take off,\u201d admits Mark. \u201cBut it\u2019s been a positive challenge. The difference we make to people\u2019s lives is the reason we\u2019re doing this. It\u2019s so far removed from the corporate world.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>What has given Mark and Gemma the most pride so far is the feedback they have received.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAfter working with our initial clients for a month, they proactively asked if they could leave us a review online. By the end of July, we hit ten 10\/10 reviews on Homecare.co.uk.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey were all unprompted and came from clients and families who wanted to share their genuine experiences. It spoke volumes about the level of care we set out to deliver.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>These reviews saw CareYourWay Chichester become the No1 rated home care provider in the region \u2013 a remarkable achievement after just three months in operation.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"scaling-sustainably-with-support-from-all-the-family\"><\/span><strong>Scaling sustainably with support from all the family<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>As of October 2025, just six months after launch, the business is now delivering over 900 hours of care per month.<\/p>\n<p>Solid long-term client care packages in place, being delivered by a growing team of five carers.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019re now recruiting heavily to meet the demand,\u201d says Mark. \u201cAnd we\u2019re getting an increasing number of referrals directly from existing clients, which is the best endorsement we could ask for.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Recruitment efforts and challenges are supported by the CareYourWay head office team, who remain closely involved in the day-to-day journey of each franchisee.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe level of support they provide is fantastic. You never feel like you\u2019re on your own,\u201d Mark adds.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s clear Mark and Gemma have created a truly family-centred culture at CareYourWay Chichester, with their daughter also now involved in the business. Together they bring the perfect blend of professional skill and heartfelt care to their clients.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019ve brought those CareYourWay family values into our franchise. We know every client, and we\u2019re building real relationships.

It\u2019s a constant reminder of what we are working so hard towards.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Mark and Gemma plan to continue scaling the business carefully, with a laser focus on maintaining the highest standards.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe want to grow the business to a significant level in the next few years and go from there. I\u2019m the sort of person who always needs to be busy, so I may always keep an interest in the business, even if we look to exit in years to come.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMost important to us is that we never drop our standards.

It\u2019s not easy \u2013 you need to be prepared to put in the hours, have a plan, and stick to it \u2013 but it is so rewarding once you get going.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He also emphasises the importance of communication with head office and setting the right goals for you.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMake sure you use the head office team at every opportunity. They have done it all successfully for 20 years, so use their experience, ask questions, and learn from them. Then go out and make your own mark.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cUltimately, running the business is about setting goals, hitting them, then resetting and going again.
