A Place for Mom

A Place for Mom is a New York-based senior care referral service that helps families find assisted living, memory care and home care. Families pay nothing; the communities and agencies it refers to pay. Its marketer Ed Nevraumont brought it to the TechTO stage in May 2015.

About

A Place for Mom runs one of the largest senior care referral networks in the United States, listing more than 11,000 senior living communities and 5,000 home care agencies and carrying over 400,000 community reviews. The service is free to families because the communities and agencies pay when a referral converts. General Atlantic and Silver Lake are longstanding owners; in January 2022 Insight Partners led a US$175M growth equity round alongside them. Ed Nevraumont, who ran marketing at the company, spoke at TechTO in May 2015 and used it as the setting for an argument that most marketing personalization is oversold.
