About Susan Frantz
A Conservative Vision for Southwest Florida
Susan Frantz is a conservative business owner, a tireless advocate, and a champion of the families, values, and free enterprise that make Southwest Florida exceptional. Raised in Lee County alongside her four siblings, Susan comes from a family with deep roots in the community she calls home. Her family didn’t just live here — they built here, invested here, and helped shape Southwest Florida into what it is today. That same legacy of building, leading, and serving is what Susan now carries into her campaign for State Representative.
A Local Business Owner Who Knows the Fight
As Founder and CEO of Frantz Marketing Solutions, Susan has spent more than 15 years in the trenches with Southwest Florida’s businesses, nonprofits, and institutions. Her Fort Myers-based firm leads strategic communications, brand development, and public affairs work across healthcare, higher education, real estate, hospitality, nonprofit services, and economic development. Through that work, Susan has seen up close what’s working in our region — and what’s broken.
She knows firsthand the burden of skyrocketing insurance premiums that are pushing families out of their homes. She has watched overregulation strangle small business owners who are simply trying to create jobs. She has seen overdevelopment threaten the very character of the Lee County she grew up in. And she has heard from too many SWFL families who feel forgotten by leaders who treat Tallahassee as a stepping stone instead of a responsibility.
Susan is running because Lee County deserves better — and because she has the experience, the conviction, and the record to deliver it.
A Fierce Defender of the Most Vulnerable
Susan’s fight extends far beyond business. She has spent years standing up for the people in our community whose voices are most easily overlooked.
As a board member of Our Mother’s Home, Susan stands with teen moms in foster care and human trafficking survivors — fighting to keep mothers and babies together and break cycles of abuse and neglect. Our Mother’s Home is the only long-term transitional residence of its kind in Southwest Florida, and Susan is proud to help lead an organization that protects the most vulnerable children and the mothers who love them.
As a board member of the Cancer Alliance Network and the American Cancer Society, Susan stands with families facing the hardest fight of their lives — those battling cancer, supporting loved ones through treatment, and working to ensure every Floridian has access to the care they need.
As a board member of SWFL, Inc., Susan fights for the small business owners and entrepreneurs who drive our regional economy — advocating for sensible regulation, economic growth, and the kind of business climate that lets working families thrive.
Investing in the Next Generation
Susan believes that the future of Southwest Florida depends on the leaders we develop today. As an advisory board member at FGCU’s Lutgert College of Business — including service to the Management School and Marketing Major — she works with university leadership to prepare students for careers that will shape our region for decades to come. She previously served as an adjunct professor at FGCU, where she taught the next generation of SWFL business and communications leaders firsthand.
Recognized Leadership, Earned the Hard Way
Susan’s leadership has been recognized across Southwest Florida and statewide. She has been named a Gulfshore Business 40 Under 40 honoree and has earned multiple statewide honors from the Florida Public Relations Association, where she has served as President of the Southwest Florida Chapter and Vice President of Communications for the FPRA State Board. These honors reflect not just her work, but her commitment to elevating the entire professional community around her
Ready to Bring the Fight to Tallahassee
Susan is running for State Representative because Lee County is at a turning point. The families who built this region deserve a representative who will fight to protect what makes it special — and who has the experience, the conviction, and the proven record to do it.
She is not running to climb a political ladder. She is running because the same community her family helped build is the community she’s spent her life serving — and the families of District 78 deserve someone who will fight for them with everything she has.

A RELENTLESS FIGHTER FOR DISTRICT 78
District 78 deserves a representative who shows up and fights. Susan is a proud America First conservative, grounded in faith, family, and community.
