We’re excited to be at the forefront of the growing buzz around the retirement home industry, as things begin to return to normal and we spread the good news about retirement living. Many of our members kept people safe throughout the pandemic, and we know communities continue to work hard to create an even more amazing lifestyle for residents. Our just-launched Inspiring Leaders series has been well received in the industry. People have told us they “watched every video” and enjoyed “hearing the different perspectives” or “heard some wonderful new ideas” and learned “how the landscape is changing across the country.”
Now’s the time that we’ve looked forward to for so long, and it’s even better than we thought. Thanks to real estate prices nationwide, the baby boom generation has more capital than many of them imagined they would. Communities like yours offer fun lifestyle and engaging activities in environments that are elegant, clean, and eminently comfortable.
Already over half a million people have visited our website in 2021, considering or fully engaged with the idea of moving into the oases you provide. We’re grateful to members and industry experts who enthusiastically shared their feedback on how Comfort Life supports their marketing and communication goals, calling it a “one-stop shop for people” (Jennifer Nicoll, Greenwood), “the source for seniors' living information across Canada” (Janice Miller, Bria), and complementing how we “keep coming up with new ideas” (Heather Green, Greenhouse Marketing). Reviewing these is a good reminder for all members, of the unique value we’re able to give members, as Canada’s #1 retirement-choice platform.
