What do I need to start a senior companion business?

I'm interesting in starting a senior companion business to take seniors out for meals, to the movies, grocery shopping, to the barber or hair salon. This service will only be for seniors who are able to walk without assistance.

Go to http://www.score.org/ to find the nearest SCORE chapter. In the upper left hand corner is a box to enter your zip code. Your nearest SCORE chapter will be on the next screen. Contact them to arrange for a free one on one meeting with a SCORE counselor about starting a senior companion business.

SCORE is a nonprofit organization. They provide a public service by offering small business advice and training.

SCORE's 10,500 volunteers have more than 600 business skills. Volunteers share their wisdom and lessons learned in business. The volunteers are working/retired business owners, executives and corporate leaders.
