# Approved Senior Network®

> Home care marketing agency. We build and run the marketing systems that home care and home health agencies use to reach local families, earn referrals, and grow. Websites, SEO and AI search visibility, content, CRM and automation, reputation management, and live sales training for in-person referral marketing.

Approved Senior Network® is a registered trademark of My Senior Service LLC, founded in 2008 and based in Saint Charles, Missouri. The company serves home care, home health, and private duty agencies across the United States. Its team includes registered nurses, marketing strategists, and business consultants, and it is led by founder Valerie VanBooven RN, BSN.

Clients are home care agency owners and operators, not families seeking care. This site sells marketing services to agencies. It does not provide care, place caregivers, or offer clinical, legal, or regulatory advice.

Programs are named and trademarked individually: GoCareLocal™ (the connected marketing system), GoCareSignal™ (search and AI visibility), GoCareWebsites™ (website design), ASNSpark! (CRM and automation), and GoCarePro™ (sales training). They are sold separately and are designed to work together.

Home care marketing, as this site defines it, is the work of making a home care agency visible, credible, and easy to choose, both for the families searching for care and for the professionals who refer them. It covers a trustworthy website, local search and AI search visibility, reviews and reputation, helpful content, lead capture and follow-up, and referral development with medical (hospitals, home health, hospice, discharge planners), residential (assisted living, skilled nursing facilities), community (elder law attorneys, financial planners), and government (VA, Area Agencies on Aging) referral sources.

Care Across America® is part of GoCareLocal™: filmed interviews that give an agency an "About Us" video and more video content for its website and social media. Interviews: https://careacrossamerica.info/

GoCarePro™ is 12 weeks of live sales training delivered over Zoom, with recorded sessions, workbooks, templates, and ongoing Mastery Meetings.
