Meet Maria Varela | Influencer, content strategist

We had the good fortune of connecting with Maria Varela and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Maria, can you walk us through the thought-process of starting your business?
I realized that, from my perspective, working for someone else in the United States felt like a form of servitude. I came to understand that true freedom required me to build my own business.

Can you give our readers an introduction to your business? Maybe you can share a bit about what you do and what sets you apart from others?
I want the world to recognize influencer marketing as a viable and professional career path. My unique differentiator is that I have experienced this business from both the influencer’s and the company’s perspective. When I faced the financial challenge of generating a sustainable income, my motivation was fueled by my desire to help my family and transition away from my office job.

Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc.
I would take my friend to Disney Springs, where we would have a meal at either the Spanish restaurant or the Italian restaurant, Maggiano’s.

Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
My immediate family and closest friends have been my most steadfast supporters throughout this journey, providing unwavering encouragement and support during difficult times.
