Meet Maria, "I Love MB"

Owner, Founder of MiamiBeachPages

Proud Latina, immigrant, family, community, 20 years in hospitality from South Beach to Bal Harbour, Miami Beach

In 2015 self-taught social media while riding the Miami Beach Trolley to work at night using a smartphone, mobile internet, and curiosity..

Maria was inspired to try something new and took initiative to create @MiamiBeachPages on Twitter as a hobby to proactively promote local Miami Beach community online for visitors and residents.. with the intention to make a positive contribution..

THE PROBLEM = OPPORTUNITY

During the years working in hotels and resorts helping visitors with local recommendations.. Maria would often give brochures, flyers, magazines, newspapers, business cards.. and overtime noticed the impact of single-use paper, expired printed promotional material and discarded trash on the floor, sidewalks, beach..

Maria was also sensitive to the unpleasant chemical odor of printed ink and residue on the fingers from paper materials.. curious what the impact to the environment and wildlife? What to do about it?

TAKE ACTION

A reminder that we can all do something to help.. to be better stewards and consider changing our consumption patterns that degrade and harm the environment, either directly or indirectly. Reports say UV paper coating is not easily recycled and in landfills they are not readily biodegradable.

Love businesses that care for the environment? So do we!

Help support the growing movement of businesses that make some decisive steps in the right direction towards a greener future and adopting sustainable marketing and advertising.

There must be a better sustainable way to advertise locally?

Wouldn’t it be easier to share a web-link instead?

If the brochure vendors can use digital mobile devices to manage inventory of printed paper flyers, why cant the paper content be digitally available instead that can be accessed via mobile devices of the end user? And simultaneous reduce consumption of paper = trees

Everybody has a smartphone device..

Could there be a better way to market and connect an audience with the rise of technology adoption, smartphones and internet connectivity by reducing printed paper ads, inks and waste..?

WE THINK SO

So Maria set out to test a cost effective solution by going digital.. to launch an eco-friendly alternative and build an audience all word-of-mouth. Without printing paper. No business cards, flyer or brochures.

A SOLUTION

Going digital is portable, fast, cheap and easy way for anyone to connect and engage a community in the palm of the hand (without the odor of ink). Word-of-mouth marketing and referrals are powerful.

RESULTS / FEEDBACK

Achieved 57,000 tweets, thousand retweets and 5,000 followers later, hit 1 million organic impressions a month with Twitter! Thanks to all for supporting so far!
