"Facts inform. Stories transform."

Takeaways from today's ECPRO Lunch & Learn on strategic storytelling with Bobby Parker:

✔️ Your organization isn't the hero — the people you serve are
✔️ Every good story needs real conflict, not just a happy ending
✔️ One clear call-to-action beats five vague ones
✔️ The story doesn't stop when the campaign does — keep your audience engaged with updates and outcomes

We always leave these sessions with something to apply right away. Thanks, Emerald Coast Public Relations Organization, ECPRO, for another great meeting!

Spain's World Cup win teaches small business owners a critical lesson: collective intelligence beats individual brilliance. 🏆⚽

Your best performer alone can't carry the team. A system built around diverse strengths, aligned strategy, and shared values produces tangible results.

According to Gallup, engaged teams earn 23% more profit. Engaged teams also earn customer loyalty.

The role of small business owners and managers isn't to find one more star; it's to build an engaged team culture that makes the collective better.

Elevate Next founder Christie Solomon sat down with David Triana and Kismeth Melendez on Conexion MEDIA GROUP's "Making Connections" show to discuss marketing strategies during a tough economy, business resilience, and the impact of AI on local business owners.

Her advice on rising costs: don't go quiet. Explain the increase, and tell customers when it might ease. "Silence is the most expensive choice."

Wishing everyone, noise-sensitive pets included, a safe and happy Fourth of July weekend. 🐾💙

From Panhandle Animal Welfare Society: Fireworks may be fun for us, but they can be frightening for our pets.

Every year, shelters across the country see an increase in lost pets after fireworks celebrations. A few simple precautions can help keep your furry family members safe and secure this Fourth of July.

❤️ Keep pets indoors before the fireworks begin.
💙 Create a quiet, comfortable space where they can relax.
❤️ Offer treats, toys, or a stuffed Kong to help keep them occupied.
💙 Walk your dog earlier in the day before the festivities start.
❤️ Make sure your pet is wearing a collar with current ID tags and that their microchip information is up to date.

A little planning today can prevent heartbreak tomorrow. Let’s work together to keep every pet safe at home this Independence Day. 🇺🇸🐾

From all of us at Elevate Next — happy 250 years of independence to the United States. 🇺🇸

"The historical legacy of Juneteenth shows the value of never giving up hope in uncertain times."

— The Smithsonian National Museum of African American History & Culture

Juneteenth commemorates the effective end of slavery on June 19, 1865, when Union General Gordon Granger arrived with troops in Galveston, Texas, to announce the end of slavery, finally freeing more than 250,000 enslaved Black people.

Established in 2021, Juneteenth became the nation's second Independence Day and 11th federally recognized holiday. This year marks the 161st anniversary of Black freedom from slavery, a pivotal turning point in U.S. history.

To celebrate independence with the Emerald Coast community, there are two fantastic festivals free to the public happening this weekend:

💛 Gallery Night Pensacola's Journey to Juneteenth
📅 This evening (Friday, June 19) | 5:00 PM – 9:00 PM
📍 Downtown Pensacola (featuring local culture, live art, and music)

💛 City of Fort Walton Beach's Juneteenth Celebration
📅 Tomorrow (Saturday, June 20) | 10:00 AM – 3:00 PM
📍 The Fort Walton Beach Landing (featuring live entertainment, music, food, and dance)

You can find full details for both of these community celebrations—plus everything else coming up this summer—on our Elevated Experience calendar.

Every workplace has its monsters — the difficult personalities that quietly drive your best people out the door. And the Gallup data is scarier than the costumes: employees are 4x more likely to quit over culture than pay, and 42% of departures were preventable.

Our latest article, inspired by a recent EmEmerald Coast Public Relations Organization, ECPRO presentation by Thrive People Services, breaks down 5 strategies to neutralize workplace "monsters" before your top talent flees. Who you gonna call? 👇
