‘Ready for Ron’ Releases Research Illustrating Growing Positive Sentiment for DeSantis

Ready for Ron

Today, Ready for Ron, a draft committee encouraging Florida Governor Ron DeSantis to run for President, released research it commissioned from Impact Social showing growing support for Governor DeSantis. The report shows positive sentiment for Governor Ron DeSantis grew 8 points from an earlier analysis released last week. Impact Social researchers analyzed the publicly available social media discussion in relation to Ron DeSantis and Donald Trump among swing voters from June 15 to June 29, 2022. Additional reports are expected every two weeks. Previous reports can be found here. “We carried out detailed language analysis of US social media discussions back to May 2016 to capture social media users into a database of 40,000 swing voters,” explained Phil Snape, Director at Impact Social. “With 40,000 participants, we are operating what is likely the world’s largest focus group – as big as a Football stadium.” The summary of Impact Social’s second report states: The last fortnight has been a productive period for Ron DeSantis which has seen his net sentiment jump 8 pts (-14 to -6) among floating voters. Within the positive conversation (+2pts 19 to 21), those hoping to persuade DeSantis to run for president will be delighted to see the leading topic within this discussion is how they prefer DeSantis to Trump (33%). It is worth emphasizing these opinions are posted without coercion or provocation. These floating voters are merely stating online how they favor the younger man as their next president. A small percentage (4%) are even outing themselves as Democrats before volunteering their support should DeSantis stand. Intriguingly, there is a feeling among his supporters that a sense of momentum is developing around his potential presidential candidacy. They speak excitedly about a poll in NH, an ‘endorsement’ by Elon Musk or simply muse that DeSantis’ ‘is where the smart money is’, that ‘Dems want Trump because they can’t beat DeSantis’ or that Fox will happily anoint him as leader of the GOP when the time arises. A downward trend in the number of negative posts against DeSantis (-5pts 33 to 27) will be welcomed by his camp. Yet their boss continues to take hits from across the political spectrum as some GOP voters see him as too right wing and pine for a leader dedicated to smaller government. That said, the majority of criticism stems from the left who see DeSantis as an overbearing authoritarian. They use DeSantis’ recent decision not to order Covid -19 vaccination for FL kids as a prime example of what he is capable of. This, together with perceived attacks on LGBT rights and support for gun laws increases anxiety among the left many of whom see him as a danger to America. All of which, given the ideological standpoint of the authors, might be music to DeSantis’ ears. “We are excited to see our efforts are paying off. Support for Ron DeSantis continues to grow. While we expect the attacks to increase, we are delighted his support base is increasing too,” explained Ready for Ron legal counsel and spokeswoman Lilian Rodríguez-Baz. “We are hoping to build one of the biggest grassroots movements ever, and with support growing like this, it will happen even more quickly than we anticipated.” Ready for Ron continues its TV and online advertising efforts to engage Americans to sign the petition at ReadyForRon.com to Draft Ron DeSantis to run in 2024. While ‘Ready for Ron’ is completely unaffiliated with the DeSantis campaign per federal regulations, it has taken the novel step of submitting a formal Advisory Opinion Request to the FEC seeking to share its growing supporter list with Governor DeSantis if the Draft succeeds and he announces his candidacy. Impact Social is a specialist social media, online monitoring, and analysis company. It uses big data software to track over 60 million online sites including Twitter, Facebook, all blogs, forums, and news websites. Whatever is said publicly, in the media or online it can follow live, 24/7 in 44 different languages. This is where reliance on algorithms ends.

Impact Social’s unique methodology ensures unrivalled accuracy to show what has been said and its impact.

The Customer Experience Software and Services Market Will Reach $120 Billion Worldwide by 2026, According to Dash Research

Dash Network

Customer experience (CX) is typically defined as the sum of a customer’s experience with a product, brand, or service, encompassing all interactions before, during, and after a transaction. Providing a positive and pleasant CX is important to every business and organization, as few customers will continue a business relationship if they are treated poorly or with indifference. Moreover, according to a new report from Dash Research, CX has become the key differentiator between competitors, particularly as price and product selection have become somewhat irrelevant, due to the expansion and ubiquity of e-commerce. “Although improvements to the overall customer experience are largely driven by organizational change management, software is increasingly being used to support these initiatives by managing and making available the plethora of customer data that is captured or aggregated from a variety of sources,” says principal analyst Keith Kirkpatrick. Dash Research forecasts that the global market for CX and customer engagement (CE) software and services will expand to $119.7 billion by 2026, up from $78.3 billion in 2019, reflecting a 2019-2026 compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.3%. This forecast represents an upgrade to Dash Research’s previous CX/CE forecast, published in 3Q 2021, due to increased estimates for market participants’ revenue, in addition to greater growth in Latin America and the Middle East & Africa. The CX market intelligence firm projects that five industry sectors will constitute approximately 55% of total revenue during the forecast period: Telecommunications Healthcare Financial Services & Insurance Retail/eTail Government/Public Sector Other industries with high growth rates between 2019 and 2026 include Media & Entertainment, Food & Beverage, and Consumer Products. Key drivers for market growth, according to the report, are as follows: The reopening and refocusing of businesses in the post-COVID era Demand for true omnichannel communications Data privacy and security issues The increasing focus on employees Predictions and next-best-actions become CX drivers An ongoing demand to create deeper and longer-lasting customer relationships Dash Research’s report, “CX Market Forecasts”, has been updated for 2022, and discusses the drivers and barriers of spending on CX software and services, as well as illustrating which segments and industries are likely to see the most investment over the next several years. It also includes insights into four industries that are driving the market spending (telecommunications, healthcare, financial services, and retail). A segmented list of notable software vendors is included in the report, as well as best-practice recommendations for market participants. An Executive Summary of the report is available for free download on the firm’s website. Dash Research, the market intelligence arm of Dash Network, provides in-depth research and insights on the worldwide CX market including a comprehensive assessment of technology solutions, business issues, market drivers, and end-user dynamics across industry sectors. Dash Research’s global market coverage combines qualitative and quantitative research methodologies to provide a complete view of emerging business opportunities surrounding contact center technologies, customer data & analytics, customer data platforms, customer insights & feedback, customer relationship management, personalization & optimization, and employee experience.

First version of the SleepX APP has been uploaded to the Google Play Store

Appyea

SleepX, a subsidiary of AppYea (OTC: APYP) a Company that is focused on the development of accurate wearable monitoring solutions to treat sleep apnea and snoring, announces that the first version of the SleepX APP has been uploaded to the Google Play Store. Without a wristband, the current version can be used for breath monitoring, snoring detection and intensity, as well as the amount of snoring per sleep session. The app also provides the user a breathing graph as well as a recording each sleep session. The app is available for free download for all versions of Android starting with version 7.0. "We decided to upload the first version for free, to increase people awareness of the importance of quality of proper breathing during sleep," said Bary Molchadsky, founder of SleepX and chairman of AppYea. “Poor sleep is associated with a compromised immune system, heart problems, reduced physical and mental performance, mood problems, obesity and many other health problems”, said Neil Kline, Founder & former CEO of the American Sleep Association, and a AppYea Board Member. “Unfortunately, most people with sleep disorder breathing problems, like sleep apnea, are undiagnosed and untreated. Our goal with this unique technology is to raise awareness and improve sleep quality so individuals can live healthier and more fulfilling lives.” Free download the SleepX APP for Android AppYea continues in-depth tests and calibration of DreamIT, its wearable data-driven wristband to treat snoring. The wearable contains a vibration motor and sensors that measure real-time physiological indications such as movement, pulse, blood oxygen level, blood pressure, etc. and send the data to the SleepX app on the user smartphone. Unique algorithms combine all data in real time and decide when to activate the vibration, at what intensity, and its duration. The gentle vibration takes you out of deep sleep into a lighter phase, a transition that trains user to breathe properly. Over a short amount of time, user’s brain and body use biofeedback to teach itself to sleep in the correct position and proper breathing technique on its own, leading to improved night breathing over time. At the user's choice, it is possible to receive comprehensive statistical reports on sleep quality and sleep health, as well as alerts about critical health changes that require consultation and follow-up. In the coming months, the company plans to launch the SleepX APP on the APPLE STORE for iPhone users and start marketing DreamIT. SleepX is an Israeli research and development company recently acquired by AppYea. The Company has developed a unique product for monitoring and treating sleep apnea and snoring. The technology is protected by several international patents and the Company plans to start serial production in 2022. The Company currently focuses its activities on the development and commercialization of its flagship product DreamIT.

Minuteman Press Franchise Owners André and Cindie Nel Grow Business in Costa Mesa, CA

Minuteman Press International Inc

In January 2020, André and Cindie Nel realized their dream of owning a business in the US by purchasing their Minuteman Press franchise located at 2930 College Ave., Unit C in Costa Mesa. “We have both always been entrepreneurs at heart,” says Cindie. As a dynamic husband and wife duo, André and Cindie have combined their strengths to create a highly successful Minuteman Press business in Costa Mesa, California, with strong growth since buying the business during the pandemic and through to today. Journey from South Africa to Costa Mesa Hailing from South Africa, André, as part of an owner run business, built a significant multi temperature logistics and distribution company for several large US fast food franchise brands. Cindie, through her strong sales and account management skills, built an innovative telecommunications brand. Cindie shares, “André, recognizing the value in investing in leading US Franchise organizations, set about purchasing a franchise in the US. Minuteman Press International, with its solid track record and stellar reputation not only in the US but in other global markets including South Africa, made the Minuteman Press franchise opportunity a front runner. This, combined with André being a college marketing major and me being a public relations major, meant there was an obvious synergy in the commercial print world, and this made Minuteman Press the perfect business opportunity for us.” Now operating in Costa Mesa for over two and a half years, André and Cindie have fully integrated themselves and Minuteman Press into their community. André says, “Costa Mesa is an inclusive community with businesses choosing to shop and support local and we have seen huge benefits in both supporting and receiving local support. Support includes not only business but also sharing facilities and neighborhood responsibilities.” “With so much being ‘virtual’ in today’s society, print is still something tangible that people can touch and feel and use to connect more personally with potential and existing clients. If the pandemic has taught us anything, it is the importance of connecting with one another at every opportunity, be it postcards, brochures, apparel, signage, customized mailings, etc. Print is highly personal and society is craving more and not less of it.” -Cindie Nel, co-owner, Minuteman Press, Costa Mesa Building the Business in Costa Mesa To grow the business, André and Cindie have successfully differentiated themselves from the competition. André explains, “Earning our clients’ trust through personal service, quick turnarounds and over delivering on expectations sets us apart from our competitors. We’ve learned to understand each client’s specific requirements and tailor our solutions accordingly. Rather than be a ‘Jack of all Trades’ we strive to become an expert for their essential needs and grow into their requirements from there.” For Minuteman Press in Costa Mesa, key product growth areas include customized labels, stickers, books, and custom branded apparel. André says, “We’ve invested and skilled up in the label/sticker and book capabilities. We’ve realized the key is in-house, quick turnaround service. We are price competitive, however, not the cheapest in town. Our clients love our personal service, with pre-production samples and our ability to meet tight in-hand deadlines setting us apart from our larger competitors.” He continues, “We have also managed to grow our customized apparel business through a great partnership with a decorator with whom we work closely in understanding the balance between exceptional quality and meeting customer in hand dates.” When it comes to marketing the business, Cindie shares, “Our biggest growth initiatives have been online marketing through Google optimization, with our five-star Google Reviews being a massive contributing success factor. The Minuteman Press pedigree is also key in clients locating us through Internet search filters. Other major growth contributing factors have been personal networking and client referrals. One of our largest clients, a realty company, is a friend of ours and it’s rewarding to be a part of their marketing and business development success.” She adds, “When you’ve invested in paid Internet optimization and client referrals, it’s critical you answer the phone and email as quickly and as professionally as possible to ensure these opportunities are secured.” Why Minuteman Press? For André and Cindie, joining the Minuteman Press franchise family enabled them to realize their dream of owning a business while also providing additional resources and support. Cindie says, “Becoming integrated into the Minuteman Press franchise system has been seamless and successful due to the informative training at World HQ and the ongoing solid local support from our Regional VP Dan Byers and the local field team. Minuteman Press checks all the right boxes in terms of onboarding, operational and financial training, and franchise support.” She continues, “Additionally, where Minuteman Press hits the ball out the park is in the inclusive ‘Minuteman Press family’ culture where everyone supports each other in challenging times and cheers each other on and celebrates sincerely in each other’s achievements. This is what makes Minuteman Press the unique and special place that it is. During these unprecedented times we’ve all been facing, the kindness and generosity shown by our Minuteman Press family has been remarkable.” When asked about the rewards of business ownership, Cindie states, “Our biggest personal reward for owning our own business is that we get to remain connected with our children through time flexibility and the ability to support them financially. Our son, Ethan, is a Computer Science Engineering Major at UCSC. We love that we get to visit him and the beautiful campus and town of Santa Cruz. Our daughter, Madison, a Junior at San Clemente High School, is an aspiring actress and we love having the time and ability to share her dreams and passions.” Cindie adds, “Our professional rewards are how our clients have become our partners and friends resulting in doubling the turnover of our business in the brief two and a half years we’ve owned our shop. This has been achieved with the mindset that every project is about how we can add value to our clients’ businesses or employees. Without our strategic relationships with our suppliers and service providers this would be impossible, so we therefore value, support and deeply invest in these companies who are an extension of our family.” Advice to Others For others who are looking into owning a business, Cindie shares, “Our advice to business owners is to do as we did; learn from the best. The key to success is to know your local market and client base and to let them dictate what and how much to invest in in-house capabilities.” She concludes, “Become experts in your field. Never hand over a job that is anything less than exceptional and also package and label your orders in the manner that you as a client would like to receive them. Always be excited and enthusiastic about every job you do for your client and rewards will follow!” Minuteman Press in Costa Mesa is located at 2930 College Ave., Unit C, Costa Mesa, CA 92626.

Kivvit Wins Bronze for Most Innovative Agency at Bulldog PR Awards

Kivvit

Kivvit has won Bronze awards for Most Innovative Agency and Best Issue/Cause Advocacy Campaign at the 2022 Bulldog PR Awards. The annual awards presented by Bulldog Reporter are the only PR awards judged exclusively by journalists. They recognize the most outstanding public relations and communications campaigns, agencies and practitioners each year and are among the most respected distinctions in the field. Entrants submitted in more than 60 categories and were evaluated on their strategy, execution, results and innovation, among other criteria. The Most Innovative Agency designation recognized Kivvit’s focus on analytics-driven communications strategies to achieve extraordinary results for its clients. The firm’s proprietary methodologies for ESG and stakeholder intelligence lead its analytics product offerings and — along with an expansion of the firm’s in-house digital, insights and brand strategy teams — have continually reinforced Kivvit’s reputation as an industry-leading innovator. Kivvit’s winning issue advocacy campaign featured an integrated public affairs strategy to secure increased funding for nonprofit organizations operating in the intellectual and developmental disabilities (I/DD) sector in New York. Through local and statewide media placements, social media, live and virtual events and state-of-the-sector reports, Kivvit was able to sound the alarm about the impacts of a worsening workforce shortage on the population the I/DD sector serves and successfully convey the need for immediate, long-term investment. As a result of these efforts, significant investments in the sector were included in the enacted 2022-2023 New York State Budget. “The resources included in the state budget are the biggest investment this vulnerable community has seen in more than a decade. It’s a testament to the excellent work of the team and the dedication of countless self-advocates, family members, care workers and vocal advocates in the state legislature who are committed to ensuring people with intellectual and developmental disabilities and the staff who support them in New York get the support and services they need and deserve,” said Kivvit associate director Josh Rosenfeld. Kivvit’s Bulldog awards come on the heels of several other high-profile industry accolades for the firm’s work, including the 2022 SABRE Award for Best in Show, the Reed Award for Public Affairs Firm of the Year, two American Association of Political Consultants’ Pollie Gold Awards, and selection as a finalist for PRovoke Media’s 2022 Digital Agency of the Year for North America.
