Hire the Best Content Marketers
in Romania

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Working with Maria has been an absolute pleasure. She’s quick, reliable, and always goes the extra mile to make sure every piece is thoughtful and high-quality." - Global Product Manager @Bitdefender Over the past five years, I've been building brand and content systems for some of the most recognised B2B brands worldwide (many of which have a strong B2C component). My work spans brand strategy, SEO, social media (LinkedIn-first), website copy, campaigns, newsletters, PR & Media, content marketing, and beyond. Some of my recent clients include Zitec, a 38M EUR tech company, cybersecurity leaders such as Bitdefender, B2B SaaS providers such as Planable, RealVNC, SocialBee, and many more. I come in, learn the business, identify where the positioning needs work, and deliver output that the team uses long after the engagement ends. Clients bring me in when they have too many ideas and no clear direction, or when the content is strategically invisible. From there, I own the work end-to-end without hand-holding. I work from ambiguous briefs and write in a way that earns trust with senior buyers. "Working with Maria has been an absolute pleasure. She's quick, reliable, and always goes the extra mile to make sure every piece is thoughtful and high-quality." - Bitdefender Here is what that looks like in practice: ➡️ I have led omnichannel brand and content strategy for Zitec, a European digital transformation company, owning everything from tone of voice and messaging architecture to LinkedIn, SEO, campaigns, and a viral campaign that reached 145,000 people with zero paid budget and won Bronze at the national CSR Awards 2026. ➡️ I have written over 500+ SEO pieces, from BOFU to evergreen content for Bitdefender and RealVNC, to guides for social media marketers at Planable and SocialBee. They rank in their competitive verticals and are referenced by LLMs. ➡️ For long-form content, I've coordinated and created gated resources, including market reports for fintechs, guides for B2B leaders on topics like accessibility, trends in retail, banking, and more. ➡️ For SEO strategy, I've delivered multiple SEO content strategies that boosted their website traffic. I also took on multiple projects that needed a brand play defined, in real estate clients, BFSI, technology, digital marketing, and more. My work covers positioning, funnel mapping, and editorial planning. The work I do best sits at the intersection of strategy and execution. I can define where a brand should play and then create the content that gets it there.

Good content gets views. Strategic content gets buyers. As a Marketing Lead with a B.S. in Business Information Systems, I don’t just throw trends at the wall to see what sticks. I read the data, figure out exactly what your audience is searching for, and build creative campaigns that actually convert. Over the last 4+ years, I’ve helped local cafes, healthcare brands, and growing e-commerce stores stop blending in. My sweet spot? High-retention hooks, organic growth (especially on TikTok and Instagram), and visual storytelling that builds genuine brand authority. The goal is always the same: get people to notice you, get them to stick around, and get them to buy. What you get when we work together✨: Strategy, not just posting ❌: A clear, consistent calendar built around when your audience is actually online. Scroll-stopping visuals: Professional, high-quality graphics and video assets tailored to your brand's aesthetic. Copy that sounds like you: Captions with actual personality and strong SEO baked in. Data-driven pivots: Regular performance tracking so we double down on what works and ditch what doesn't. The "No-BS" Guarantee: I reply fast, deliver on time, and never ghost. You will never have to chase me down for an update. I connect the dots between your business goals and the creative execution needed to get there. I don't just follow instructions; I bring ideas to the table. Shoot me a message with a quick breakdown of your business, and let's figure out how to scale it.

Send me a message, and I'll record a personalized Loom showing you how I'd build your Growth Engine. ———— Every SaaS founder I talk to is fighting the same three battles: • Pipeline...but CAC keeps climbing and ads stop scaling. • Demos...but cold outreach is manual, generic, and ignored. • Retention...but onboarding is held together with spreadsheets and hope. The founders winning right now have systems for all three. That's what I build.
