Over the 24 months of working with this senior living provider, we saw the average occupancy rate increase from 52% to 88%, significantly boosting revenue and maintaining a higher level of profitability for every community, allowing providers to reinvest more back into each community.
Key Insights:
Targeted Strategies Yield High ROI: The decrease in cost per lead and increase in occupancy rates highlight the success of our tailored marketing approaches.
Regional Adaptation is Key: The variations in results by region underscore the importance of customizing strategies to local markets.
Sustainable Growth Over Time: The two-year study period illustrates that significant gains in marketing efficacy are achievable with consistent strategic efforts.
Lastly, suppose we use industry benchmarks to calculate how impactful these results are to each community. In that case, we can take the AVG cost of Assisted Living per month ($4700) x AVG number of Months (22) = AVG revenue per resident. If the AVG number of beds per facility is 39, we estimate that each community in 2021 generated roughly $2,096,952 in revenue based on a 52% occupancy rate. In 2023, with an AVG occupancy rate of 88%, revenue jumped to $3,548.688, adding $1.45M in revenue to each community.
This case study demonstrates the transformative impact CCR Growth’s marketing efforts can have on Senior Living communities and their bottom line in just two years, increasing revenue by 100% or more. By combining targeted reach, engaging content, and strategic nurturing, we can help communities achieve significant occupancy increases, attract qualified leads, and ultimately, thrive in a competitive market.
