The Southern Group-Florida

Every day across Florida, throughout our network of 20+ lobbyists, we are navigating Tallahassee, advancing interests, amplifying voices, influencing decision makers, cutting through the red tape, and impacting local communities. With offices in Tallahassee, Jacksonville, Orlando, Tampa Bay, and Miami, Southern Strategy Group serves as a turnkey solution for organizations seeking access, advocacy, and advice. Southern Strategy Group has 16 affiliated offices throughout the United States allowing its team to navigate government in Florida and 10 other states. To best serve you, a team must be composed of seasoned government operatives, each credible and effective in his or her own right, who can gain ready access to government officials and move opinion at every level in government; from the cubicles in each agency to the highest state office. In evaluating lobbying firms it is imperative to distinguish between a team and simply a large group of people who work for the same firm. A team communicates, strategizes, and moves in unison toward a common goal. A team is only as strong as its weakest link. A team is in constant communication with its client. Each member of the team must have independent credibility and command the respect of the officials he or she lobbies. Each team member must be part of a culture that celebrates effectively and ethically representing clients. We are that team. Every industry. Every interest. Powerful advocacy begins here.
