What does success look like as a Home Helpers® Home Care franchise owner? Meet Beth and Phillip Dow of Newnan, Georgia, the International Franchise Association's 2026 Franchisees of the Year. This marks their second time receiving this prestigious recognition, having previously earned the honor in 2015.
Beth and Phillip's success has been built over nearly two decades. Their locally owned and operated home care business now employs 150 Caregivers and 14 operations team members, creating meaningful employment opportunities in the communities they serve.
Their story shows what's possible when committed franchise owners pair a proven model with a growing need. According to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, 70% of adults who reach age 65 will develop serious long-term care needs during their lifetime, reinforcing the importance of trusted care for older adults and their families. Home Helpers® Home Care has met that need through franchising since 1997, with 400+ locations nationwide.
"Franchisees of the Year demonstrate what franchising is all about – individuals who have committed their lives and careers to the betterment of those around them, building something bigger than themselves. Through their leadership, they create jobs and build careers, give back to their communities, and support other franchisees, all while exemplifying the entrepreneurial spirit at the heart of franchising." - Matt Haller, President and CEO of the IFA.
Home Helpers® Home Care franchise owners are in business for themselves, but never by themselves. Beth also shares marketing resources, educational presentations, and operational strategies with fellow franchise owners, demonstrating the collaborative spirit of the Home Helpers® Home Care network. Their leadership starts with the people who care for clients every day, and Beth is quick to give them the credit:
"Families depend on us during deeply personal moments, and that responsibility guides every decision we make. This recognition belongs to our caregivers and support team, whose dedication gives clients and their loved ones greater stability, confidence, and peace of mind." - Beth Dow, Home Helpers Home Care of Newnan, GA Franchise Owner
Congratulations, Beth and Phillip, on an honor you've truly earned.
