Senior Technology Training & Support

Senior technology trainers teach older adults to use smartphones, tablets, computers, and assistive technology promoting connection and independence.

With technology essential but 40% of seniors lacking confidence, training generates revenue of $70,000-$260,000 with 80-95% margins.

The business requires patience teaching seniors, technology expertise, training materials, and one-on-one approach.

Services include smartphone and tablet training, video calling setup (FaceTime, Zoom), email and social media, telehealth technology, assistive technology setup, and ongoing support.

Pricing typically $50-$100 per session or package rates.

Success factors include patience and teaching at senior pace, jargon-free instruction, focusing on practical uses (family connection, telehealth), offering in-home training, and providing written materials.

Most trainers offer one-on-one in-home sessions.

Marketing focuses on senior centers, assisted living, adult children, and libraries.

With technology enabling connection and independence but seniors struggling in 2025, technology training offers digital literacy opportunities reducing isolation and enabling aging in place.
