Business/Employer Benefits

Welcome to the Business and Professionals Section. Here you will find information about how the SeniorSmile Network and Senior Solutions can assist Attorneys, Physicians, Legal Guardians, and other professionals who frequently deal with Seniors. You may also read about how the SeniorSmile Network and Senior Solutions can help various businesses evaluate and develop their services to the Senior market.


Business Community at Large

Consultation services by Senior Solutions of Pinellas County are available to all businesses who are interested in providing their seasoned customers with quality service. Businesses who desire to expand or enhance their markets to Seniors, will enjoy the benefits of experienced guidance through Senior Solutions.

Recognizing the unique character of each of our business clients, Senior Solutions will provide you with customized services to meet your needs. The Senior market is booming. Will your business be recognized in the future as being "Senior Friendly"?

We understand the growing necessity of every business to address product and service issues as their percentage of Senior customers increases. We recognize that a business's potential share of the Senior market is based on their preparedness and earnest effort to provide Seniors with quality products and services, and effective communication practices.

If you as a business owner/employer haven't given serious thought to this issue, it might be wise to do so. Research shows that Seniors want their services delivered in a dependable, timely fashion. They want and expect a business to deliver on their promises, and won't be repeat customers if the business doesn't. Not only will you lose their business in the future, but you will lose the benefit of any word-of-mouth referrals they may have provided you with. If you don't think this is anything to worry about, think again and read up on demographic estimates for the next 20 years.

Not only is the percentage of people over 55 continuing to rise, but, as a group, they share the largest percentage of wealth. Older members of the over 55 group will be transferring assets to their younger family members. Younger family members are or will soon be in this spending group.

Attitudes of the aging have changed and will continue to do so. Baby Boomers will delay their aging process in whatever ways they can. Their idea of aging is different from their parents. People are living longer and are seeing that they must plan for this. Many Seniors now didn't expect to live as long as they have, and find themselves ill prepared.

Marketing in general isn't up to speed on what appeals to people in this age group. Advertising agencies continue to market their concept of aging-not the concept of the people who are in this group. Agencies continue to market to the group in general, not the sub-groups of 55-65, 75-85, and 85 +. These are 3 distinct groups of consumers and what appeals to one, doesn't necessarily appeal to the others.


As an Employer

Senior Solutions of Pinellas County can help you to maintain valuable employees, maintain employee output, and have employees who are happier. As an employer, you can make sure your workers are aware of the services that Senior Solutions provides.      

Businesses are increasingly finding employees are having to deal with "parent" problems in addition to the traditional "child care" problems. Employees in this position are referred to as "The Sandwich Generation". Their divided sense of responsibility between family and work, puts increased pressure on your employees. Their family problems are your business's problems.

As an Attorney

Many attorneys in Pinellas County deal with Seniors, and the legal issues that effect them as they plan for the future. They may confide in you about family or health problems. You may have some clients who don't have family nearby, have family nearby that doesn't pay attention to their needs, or have no family. Whatever the case, I'm sure situations arise that cause you concern and you'd like to do more.

As a Professional Guardian

You have fully accepted the responsibility for the health and welfare of your wards. You have a commitment to both the individual and the State which has appointed you. Guardians must take care of current problems and take precautions to prevent future ones from occurring.

Many of you are responsible for Seniors. You understand that aging presents its own set of circumstances. Health care, finances, and legal issues must be dealt with.
