From growing up in a small town with dirt roads, to becoming award-winning innovators in the senior care industry with over twenty million in sales; meet the founders and CEOs of Innovative Senior Consultants, Eshonda Blue and Jessica Wright. The Georgia born sisters prove when you walk in your passion, and serve from your heart, the sky becomes the limit.
Blue and Wright’s journey began after advocating and caring for the aging grandmother, who was also their first client. After amassing a combined twenty years experience as healthcare professionals, the sisters knew they could improve the quality of long-term care for the elderly and disabled. The success with their grandmother was the start of over fifteen years of serving satisfied clients.
In that time, Eshonda Blue and Jessica Wright won various awards for their excellence in leadership and integrity, solidifying themselves as trust providers of choice for their community.
Their hometown gifted them the keys to the city, and suggested they be representative in exclusive business development trainings across the state of Georgia. They even received mentorship from a Fortune-500 company and attended Tuck School of Business. Their associations, connections, and effective use of technology led to the sale of a business in 2019, which netted them seven-figures in profit.
Innovative Senior Consultants had the blueprint for a profitable senior care business completely figured out, even including fully renovated, 6-bed facilities that were ready for leasing. As of 2022, the company acquired and flipped twenty-two properties in strategic areas to revitalize underserved communities, and plan to more than double that number by year’s end.
While their growth strategy may seem aggressive to some, to Blue and Wright, it is absolutely necessary in order to meet the needs of the rapidly growing elderly and disable population. An article in the US Census reported that by the year 2030, all the nation’s baby boomers will be age 65 or older. This influx of elders, known as the Silver Tsunami, emphasizes the need for developing more comfortable living facilities and highly trained healthcare professionals to run them.
The difference with Innovative Senior Consultants’ solutions, when compared to a nursing home, is their home-like atmosphere that allows independence, engagement, and around the clock supervision and assistance. Eshonda and Jessica have even launched a residential boutique-style Personal Care Home. These homes will be a small community of 6 residents with private suites, with two couple suites available. The suites will be fully furnished with professional interior decor. Each facility features around the clock care, chef prepared meals, laundry, and housekeeping services.
“We want to encourage entrepreneurs who are stalling due to lack of finances or knowledge how to enter the senior care industry and be profitable while providing quality service,” shared the sisters during an interview. The consulting agency offers a free online masterclass, mentorships, and various resources as ways to share their million-dollar blueprint with ambitious entrepreneurs, real estate investors, and healthcare professionals desiring to start, manage, and grow their own profitable senior care businesses.
