RevOps and AI operations for South Florida businesses.
From Brickell to Hollywood, the coast runs on owner-led businesses that sell to a bilingual, international customer base. OpsPal is a remote, senior team that builds and runs the systems underneath them: intake, CRM, follow-up, and reporting. Each city has its own page with Census figures and the one constraint we see most there.

Dated changes that touch how local businesses sell, hire, and comply. Each links to its source.
- Florida's minimum wage is now 15 dollars an hour (September 30, 2026). The state minimum reached 15 dollars an hour, and from September 30, 2027 it adjusts each year for inflation. Payroll, pricing, and staffing plans should already run on the new floor. Florida Constitution, Article X, Section 24.
- No more sales tax on commercial rent (October 1, 2025). Rent for office, retail, warehouse, and self-storage space no longer carries the state sales tax or the county surtax, for occupancy from October 1, 2025. Rent for earlier periods stays taxable even if it is paid later. Anyone who rents space should check that invoices and the books reflect it. Florida Department of Revenue, TIP 25A01-04.
- Condo associations with 25 or more units must post records online (January 1, 2026). The threshold for keeping official records on a website or app dropped from 150 units to 25, with documents posted within 30 days. Property managers and smaller associations now have a document workflow to run and keep current. Florida Statutes, s. 718.111(12)(g).
- Miami-Dade repeals the rule to display the business tax receipt (April 21, 2026). The County Commission passed an ordinance removing the requirement that businesses display their local business tax receipt. One posting step comes off the compliance checklist; the receipt itself is still required. Miami-Dade Board of County Commissioners bulletin.

Brickell is a neighborhood, not a Census place, so its figures cover ZIP codes 33129, 33130, and 33131, and its income is shown by ZIP code on its page because medians cannot be added together. Miami's business count is left out because the city spans too many ZIP codes to count cleanly. ZIP codes do not follow city limits exactly, and survey figures are estimates with margins of error.
