Opening Your Own ABA Therapy Business Has Never Been Easier
Do you want to open your own ABA therapy business? You don’t need any experience in the Autism Treatment field, because SOS Franchising offers training and ongoing assistance so that you can confidently run your business.
Purchasing a franchise gives you the benefit of a proven product while still being your own boss. You will assume the reputation of an established brand that customers can trust.
WHAT IS “SUCCESS ON THE SPECTRUM”?
Success On The Spectrum is a national Autism Treatment franchise that started in 2016. SOS has become the fastest growing ABA franchise in the U.S.
An innovative leader in the growing ABA industry, Success On The Spectrum leverages its proprietary technology to provide a low-cost business model that makes it easy to manage and operate.
WHAT DOES SUCCESS ON THE SPECTRUM DO?
Success On The Spectrum is a learning center for children with developmental delays. Unlike typical school classrooms, our centers are designed to be sensory friendly. Our child to “teacher” ratio is one-to-one, so our clients make the most progress possible in a short amount of time.
Success On The Spectrum’s ABA program gives specialized instruction to children who are not currently learning like their peers. We teach children HOW to learn, then gradually reduce or eliminate the individualized support.
SUCCESS ON THE SPECTRUM OFFERS SEVERAL TREATMENT SERVICES
- ABA Therapy: specialized instruction that helps children acquire new skills and reduce problem behavior.
- Speech Therapy: helps improve verbal, nonverbal, and social communication.
- Occupational Therapy: helps children to become more independent and participate in a wide range of activities.
- Social Skills Group Classes: promotes growth in social connections and friendship skills.
Success On The Spectrum also engages in community outreach efforts to enhance public knowledge about autism and reduce stigmas associated with the disorder.
Each location hosts events and workshops, not just for the clients they serve, but for community at large, dedicated to supporting autism education and creating social opportunities.
HOW DOES SUCCESS ON THE SPECTRUM MAKE MONEY?
When a child is diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder, their health insurance will pay for ABA Therapy to treat symptoms. Each week, SOS will send an invoice (aka claim) to the insurance for all time spent with a child. The insurance companies usually direct deposit the money into the SOS bank account within 30 days.
If a school has a child that is not successful in a special needs classroom (no medical diagnosis needed), they seek alternative placement. Schools will pay SOS centers cash to provide an environment that is suitable for their style of learning.
ABA is considered an essential healthcare service. This businesses tends to be recession-proof, as healthcare needs persist even during economic downturns.
There is a constant demand for ABA services. The rate of Autism diagnosis is increasing, awareness of ABA treatment is increasing, and insurance coverage is at an all-time high. It is a perfect storm for business opportunity!
WHAT DOES A SOS OWNER DO?
SOS Franchising will train franchisees how to operate a SOS Center. The CEOs typically work 30 hours per week and are very involved in daily operations.
SOS CEOs interview and hire staff, do performance reviews, any needed disciplinary action, and payroll. CEOs are also responsible for local marketing and community outreach events.
