About Me — Chelsea Rhane Bradley
Introduction
My middle name is Rhane, pronounced “rain,” and I go by @ChelseaRhane on Instagram and Twitter. I’m known for tweeting what you’re thinking (but afraid to say) and spending all of my spare time on my boat on the Pacific Ocean with the most wonderful gentle giants.
I love rock music, spending time with my family, insightful conversations, meaningful friendships, tattoos, adventure, and marine life. Writing is my release and something I’ve always loved — from having blogs of my own to copywriting for clients, I have a way with words, so keeping this short is hard.
After receiving my journalism degree, mainstream media started to get REAL corrupt. I didn’t go to school to come out with a degree in journalism, ethics, and business and have to write lies for news publications.
I’m a very by the book, fundamentals first kind of gal. So naturally, like most journalists at the time, I transitioned into figuring out social media for business as that became a thing, and am proud to be one of the first to pave the way.
I have had (and am having) an exciting career in social media marketing — from community and reputation management to strategy and paid media. I am very passionate about community management. A lot of people think community management is a low-level position or not important, but it is the most important part of your brand being on social media — there is no one closer to or knows your customers better than your community manager.
Speaking of assumptions about social media, you’ll love: What Your Social Media Manager/Team Wants You to Know.
Ideally, I’d love to write a book titled ‘Dear Consumer,’ however, I know consumers would never read it 😉
When I’m not working (haha) I am spending time with my son, bonus daughters, Blake, my dogs, Goose, (RIP Maverick), Basil, and Ponzu, and reptiles Gordon Von Butterscotch the Ball Python, and Pépé the Bearded Dragon and Larry the Long Tailed Lizard.
When we aren’t working from home or distance learning, we are on our boat spending as much time as possible with the whales, dolphins, sea lions, and sharks.
I am available to take on new clients, contract, and freelance work — or full time if the perfect position comes along. My areas of expertise are social media strategy, social media management, community management, reputation management, advertising, content creation, blogging, copywriting, reporting, and analysis, and I have a videographer and editor on my team.
Follow me on Instagram, Twitter & let’s connect on LinkedIn. I love meeting new people and having great conversations. Let’s talk about life, social media, or parenting — or even better, let’s work on something together!
