Marisol at Workspace: 10 years growing with your publishing house
Marisol Ravassa, for us Sol, is the editor and founder of the Soldesol publishing housea publishing house that has been publishing books from Workspace Coworking Almería for a decade. Their story is linked from the beginning to ours, and their testimony is a reflection of how a space can accompany and promote the growth of a professional project.
"I just knew how to do my job, period." It was with this clarity that Sol began his entrepreneurial journey ten years ago. Barely a month after Luis Roca opened the doors of Workspace, Sol found in this new model of shared space the opportunity he needed to launch his publishing house.
From the beginning, he valued not only the physical location, but also the human accompaniment: "Luis opened his doors to me and made me see that I had a place to develop my work." Thus began a collaboration that, ten years later, is still as lively as the first day.
Why coworking?
For Sol, choosing coworking over more traditional options such as an office or working from home was a natural choice. Her work as an editor allows her to collaborate with professionals from different parts of the country, so she doesn't need a continuous on-site team. However, she does need an environment where she can separate her personal and professional life, something that coworking clearly offers her.
An environment with attention to detail
For Sol, Workspace allows him to focus on what really matters: his work. "I don't have to worry about anything here. If the internet goes down, it's not my problem. If a light bulb goes out, neither. All the hours here are effective."
Workspace is not just a place to sit and work. It's an environment designed to make everyday life easier, with amenities like printing, a kitchen, common spaces and an active professional community.
Real synergies
The Soldesol publishing house has been growing, and with it, so has its network of collaborators. In Workspace, Sol has found designers, translators, community managers... people who not only share space, but also objectives.
"Of course I end up having friends. You create synergies that allow you to offer an extra service within your business. That, at home, I wouldn't have."
Ten years later...
Sol continues to choose Workspace as his workplace, not out of inertia, but out of conviction. Because here she not only found a desk, but a community. Because here her project grew, but also her as a professional.
"Workspace is a luxury because you don't have to worry about anything. And the environment... here, which is the one I know, is wonderful."
