What Our Clients Say

Trusted by Businesses Across the UK.

“

We'd been operating well below the occupancy we knew we were capable of, despite the quality of what we offer. Emotio helped us get visible to the right families in Warwickshire — people actively searching for premium, all-inclusive nursing care, not just the nearest available bed. Within three months our private enquiry volume had more than doubled and our tour conversion rate improved noticeably. For a home of our standard, being found by the right families at the right moment makes all the difference.

Opening a new 60-bed home in a competitive market is a daunting prospect. We needed to build an enquiry pipeline before we even had residents to show families around. Emotio structured our Google presence and digital campaigns from the ground up, targeting private self-funders across the Cotswolds area specifically. We had 40 enquiries and 28 confirmed tours before we officially opened, and reached over half capacity within our first four months. That kind of start is genuinely rare in this sector.

Home care is a harder sell digitally than a residential home — families don't always know what they're looking for until they find it. Emotio helped us articulate our live-in and visiting care offer clearly online, and built local search visibility across our key service areas in the South West. We saw a significant increase in self-referring private clients rather than relying on local authority referrals, which has meaningfully improved our margin and given us more control over our growth. They understood the nuances of domiciliary care, which most agencies simply don't.

Why Occupancy Drops

When we audit a new care home client’s digital presence, the same problems appear time and again. They’re rarely about the quality of care — they’re about visibility, reputation and what happens when a family searches for a home like yours online. Here’s what we find.

01

Invisible in local searches

Families searching ‘care home near me’ find your competitors first.

02

Google reviews costing you enquiries

One negative review without a response can lose you multiple private self-funders.

03

No private self-funder pipeline

Over-reliance on council placements leaves you exposed when block contracts change.

04

Website doesn’t convert visitors

Families land on your site and leave without calling. Your enquiry rate should be much higher.

05

New home struggling to fill

Opening a new home or new floor without an enquiry pipeline from day one is avoidable.

06

No structured follow-up system

Families who enquire but don’t commit immediately are never followed up. Those beds stay empty.
