Welcome

STEP INTO THE UNCONFERENCE: AN IMMERSIVE SALES & MARKETING EXPERIENCE BROUGHT TO YOU BY GOOD BRAND & OUR INDUSTRY PARTNERS.

Exhausted by the conference grind? Picture your typical conference: big ballrooms, large crowds, and a lot of information that you don’t need or can’t use. Now, imagine a different world. Welcome to the Life Plan Marketing Summit 2026, where every moment is designed to be as refreshing as it is inspiring. Dive deeper with sales and marketing leaders of Life Plan Communities and CCRC’s. With a stellar lineup of speakers, discussion moderators, interactive sessions, and an Experience Lab, you will walk away with actionable insights and inspiration to take back to your communities.

About the Event

Trade the typical for something refreshingly different. Set in the charming dairy barn at Anne Springs, our summit transforms a retreat-like setting into a hub of innovation. Feel the warmth of the surroundings and the openness of nature as you engage in a space that feels more like a creative retreat than a corporate conference.

Join us in the early evening on Tuesday, March 17, 2026, for registration and a relaxed meet and greet. Stay nearby in charming Fort Mill, South Carolina, where you can access plenty of restaurants, outdoor spaces, and shops. Join us for a group dinner that night or relax and refresh for the sessions beginning on Wednesday, March 18. We’ll enjoy a dynamic keynote session on Wednesday morning, followed by presentations, breakouts, and a complimentary lunch. More learnings and lunch are included on Thursday, March 19, with plenty of opportunities to get to know other sales and marketing leaders and hear about their challenges and successes. Register now to secure your spot for senior living professional development and networking.

CONNECT, LEARN, and GROW

IN A RETREAT-LIKE SETTING

From the Crowd to Connection | Big conferences often mean getting a little lost and chaotic. Not here. With attendance capped at just 125, every conversation is personal, every connection genuine. You’ll build relationships that last, not just collect bags of useless information.

Our reception will be located in the Gateway Canteen inside The Anne Springs Close Greenway. The sessions and the rest of the event will be located in The Founders Dairy Barn. This venue is the ideal location to get the creative juices flowing. The unique, retreat-like setting, nestled among the natural beauty and wooded trails, is perfect for opening your mind to new possibilities and resetting your goals. We are incredibly excited that we’ve found the perfect venue to connect, learn, and grow at the Life Plan Marketing Summit.

Our intention for the Life Plan Marketing Summit is a rolled-up sleeve mindset rather than the button-up collar approach you typically find. This event calls for a comfortable, casual space, and we are fortunate to secure one of the area’s most charming venues. Rest assured that you’ll be in a climate-controlled building with ample facilities. The Founders Dairy Barn is equipped for audio and video and has wireless internet access. Guests will also enjoy free parking. After the sessions, you have many dining options and attractions to explore.

This is by far the best conference for Life Plan marketing and sales teams to learn and gain actionable insights they can implement quickly in their communities. It’s also the best value on the conference circuit.

We were very impressed by the quality of the presentations. Unlike other conferences, this was focused on sales and marketing. Nothing felt like a pitch for a particular good or service. The information provided was timely and valuable. Our team returned with a renewed focus and energy. Being local was a huge plus for our not-for-profit budget.

The Life Plan Summit is the one conference I look forward to most. We may not be able to attend every year due to scheduling conflicts, but when we can, we are there! The capped attendance allows for more thoughtful, engaging conversations amongst your peers to discuss best practices, innovations, and similarity in struggles to ideate together for collaborative improvement, and the sessions are geared specifically to sales and marketing of Life Plan Communities, making them truly beneficial to those who attend.

The smaller size creates a unique opportunity for in-depth conversations and building lasting relationships with fellow attendees.
