With the second half of 2026 now underway, HomeWell remains focused on equipping agencies with the practical resources they need to differentiate themselves, strengthen referral relationships, and better serve local families.

Earlier this summer, Flex Studio was launched as an enhancement to a marketing platform that enables agencies to customize marketing materials while maintaining branding consistency. It provides flexibility to localize marketing pieces using approved templates, branding, and assets, allowing agencies to respond more promptly to opportunities while reducing material development time.

In late July, a strategic partnership with Trella Health was launched to provide franchise owners with access to healthcare market intelligence as part of ongoing support for owner success. Trella helps agencies identify referral opportunities, understand provider relationships, and strengthen outreach across the care continuum. By giving locations deeper visibility into local healthcare markets, the platform supports more informed business development strategies.

"Our goal is to equip franchise owners with more than just standard support—we want to provide them with meaningful advantages that help them grow in their local markets," said Michelle Cone, Senior Vice President of Industry Engagement. "Whether it's giving owners greater capabilities in meeting their local marketing needs through Flex Studio or helping them build more intentional, community-focused healthcare relationships with Trella Health, these investments reinforce our commitment to providing franchisees with innovative resources that enable long-term sustainability."

With continued momentum in development, operational resources, and a marketing toolkit, the company enters the second half of 2026 with a focus on providing trusted in-home care across the country.
