The best way to get started is to print some business cards and start letting people know about your service.

Elderly tend to be on fixed incomes so are you sure there is a market for your services? Maybe you should be a little more general.

Another good place to check for specific information is your county Economic Development Corp. I'm sure they're all very different, but ours has a small lending library on two carts that travel to all the libraries in the county. It's ALL various types of business centered books. Ours carries ALL of the Entrepreneur magazines notebooks for specific businesses and they have one for Senior Care Businesses. Here's a link to where it's offered, but check your local EDC first. http://www.smallbizbooks.com/c/s/00292.html

Here's an article to read by Entrepreneur Magazine, too.
