Instagram Influencer Spotlight On: Noel Simon Cabrera @dramaqueensimon

1) Tell us a little about yourself. What are you doing now and where do you come from?

I’m a registered nurse and I’m working in a private hospital for 3 years now. I’ve been fascinated to social influencers since 2014 but it was just this year that I decided to be one of them and to have my own site because I want my stories to be an inspiration to others.

2) What are your topics of interest? What do you post on Instagram the most?

If you will visit my Instagram account right now, there will be 3 things you’ll notice: Travel, Fashion & Food!

3) How did your Instagram name come about?

When I was in college, I’m really one of those students who will be pushed by my friends when there’s a skit or someone who can act… I really wanted to be an artist thatms why I called myself back then ‘dramaqueensimon’ and up to this day I’m still using it.

4) What are some apps you use to edit your photos? Share with us your photo-editing routine!

Before I discovered snapseed, I usually use afterlight and when I’m done I transferred all the edited apps to VSCO just to see if the photos are instagram feed goals! Yay! I don’t usually use filters on my photos! I just want to highlight the colors and I’m done!

5) Any Instagrammers whom you really like? Which Instagrammer inspires you the most?

It was David Guison & Joseph Cham who I really look up to in terms of being social influencers. In terms of Instagram feed goals, it was Louise delos Reyes who I admire the most. Lissa Kahayon is very engaged to her followers.

6) If there’s one thing your fellow Instagrammers just gotta try now, what’s it gonna be?

To listen to my Sarah Geronimo studio album collections while I tell him/her Sarah Geronimo’s Cinderella story. I want everyone to be inspired by her rugs to riches life story! It’s really an eye opening to me & she’s really an inspiration and role model to everyone.

7) What’s your favorite part about being an influencer?

My favorite part is to inspire other people & to see their smile & when you knew that they are satisfied with your work, that moment, you knew you’re doing something great… something special.

8) What are some of your top tips to brands for running campaigns? How do you maintain authenticity?

Know your consumers. Know what they need not just what they want. It’s so important because when someone got the one he/she’s needed it can be with him/her for a lifetime but if someone got the one he/she only wants, in just a month or two, it will be forgotten.

9) What would your advice be on the importance of quality and original content?

It’s importance is that when you got an original content and with a great quality, that will be your market… your edge among others! Yeah, it will be copied by others but it can never be the same as yours.

10) What do you like best about partnering with brands?

The best thing about partnering with brands is that I learn from them, from their experiences, from different persons and different walks of life… From there, I nurture my core values, I mature and I used to inspire the people around me & for them to learn also from me & for them to be happy.
