!To Whom it May Concern, !!I have had the pleasure of supervising Rebecca Chambers as a Social Media Manager for four years at Downtown Ventura Partners and am honored to recommend her for everything social media. Rebecca managed all of our social media platforms, interacted with businesses, helped create new social programs, came up with promotional campaigns and was always striving for new and creative ideas. !Rebecca came to us when we were in dire need of help. Her immediate deep caring of our community and the desire to grow our outreach was invaluable. Our numbers and engagement grew exponentially and it was brilliant to see Rebecca continue to reach for new milestones. !Rebecca has incredible initiative and that is the the driving force for all her successes. She is not afraid to try something new, and when she does, other like social media accounts soon follow suit. Because Rebecca is such a self starter, she needs little guidance; and because her work is so remarkable, it was easy for us, as management, to step back and let her do her thing. That is where Rebecca shines. !Her significant understanding of the human condition and how that permeates social media is inspiring. Every aspect of every post is given tremendous thought — like linking a quote to the visceral feeling of a photo. Something that feels so natural to followers and connects to hearts, which is a talent that cannot be learned. Rebecca has this and it made her an invaluable asset to our team. !I fully recommend Rebecca Chambers. If you have any questions regarding Rebecca’s work history with us, please do not hesitate to call. !Regards, !!Meredith Hart Deputy Director Downtown Ventura Partners PO Box 1414 Ventura 93002 (805) 641-1090 [email protected]

Recommendation for Rebecca Chambers
Rebecca was hired in September 2013 as our social media manager for Downtown Ventura Partners. Our
mission is to foster a vibrant commercial and cultural district with strategic capital improvements,
enhanced maintenance and security, effective marketing and promotions, historic preservation education,
and effective administration. Prior to hiring Rebecca, we were not using social media as a way to engage
with our local community, share our events, extend our brand, and support our local businesses. In a short
period of time, I came to rely on Rebecca as a most trusted and reliable team member. The quality of her
work exceeded my expectations. She’s a creative self-starter. More than anything, she is passionately
engaged in her role as social media manager.
Rebecca has proven she has the skills to do just about anything in the arena of this industry, including video
production, photography and photo editing using Photoshop. She has excellent time management skills as
an independent contractor who works from home, and everything you’d expect from a seasoned social
media manager. What I believe sets her apart is her extreme passion for the world of social media
marketing, her inherent empathetic nature which allows her to create daily posts and write copy that truly
speaks to and motivates our local community, and her commitment to our success, even to the point of self-
sacrifice.
Here are a few examples to explain what I mean:
1) We are small nonprofit agency, with the budget to match our size. Our office is a small
staff, which doesn’t have the time to oversee or manage her work. Rebecca has taken it upon herself to
search out local happenings, promote them in engaging ways on our social media and create meaningful
relationships with local businesses owners and community. This has allowed us to do our own work and
not have to manage hers. I might add: Rebecca is only paid to work part time for us, but seems to do the
work of a full-time person.

2) Rebecca’s fundamental bel ief in social media marketing is simple: engage the local
community by sharing their own content (User Generated Content), create and post relatable content, take
the time to create posts that will be “shared” by our fans, and most importantly, communicate and engage
with our fans on a personal level. Rebecca has created and manages for us: Facebook, Google+, Google
Local, Twitter, YouTube, Instagram and a recent addition of Pinterest. We have never paid for promoted
posts or ads on Facebook, or any other social media channel for that matter, and yet our posts are “liked”
and “shared” exponentially more than other Downtowns much larger and more well known and well
financed than our own Downtown Ventura.
3) I t wasn’t long before I came to understand that Rebecca’s social media abi l i ty is a
gift . She continuously excites us with the work she produces, the engagement with our local community,
and even today, as I see her daily posts, I feel proud of her and the work she is doing for us.
One thing I can promise you is that you will not be let down. She will work passionately for you and your
cause, and you will soon be like me: happy to have her working for you.
These are just a few examples. If you would like to discuss how Rebecca’s skills would fit your needs,
please do not hesitate to contact me on my personal cell phone at 805-302-1660.
Sincerely Kevin Clerici Executive Director
To Whom It May Concern,
I am writing this note in praise of Rebecca Chambers. I have had the privilege of working with Rebecca for the past 2 years. In that time, Rebecca has been a part of our Executive level team, helping to build our brand and social media program from scratch.
It has been a policy to not buy paid ads and with Rebecca’s keen sense of engagement, she grew our social media audience with pure organic strategies. She has a balanced focus on engagement and people, understanding the importance of building relationships through social media, photography, and graphic design, rather than trying to sell a product – which builds the foundation of trust for people in an overall brand.
Rebecca also has a keen eye for photo media and graphics. She is very thoughtful with her designs and image choices. She is skilled in many different functions of filmmaking and graphic design and can contribute to many areas of a start-up or seasoned company.
We are extremely grateful for the time that Rebecca was with us. Her work helped to put our company on the top of the charts in our industry.
Thank you,
Stephanie Graziano

Character reference for Rebecca Chambers

To whom it may concern,
I am writing this letter in reference to Rebecca Chambers, whom I worked alongside for approximately 18 months in a high-‐intensity startup environment at Green Flower Media.
Becca wore several hats for the company during our time working together. I could go on about how she deftly managed our social media channels, her excellent graphic design work, her knack for playful promotional copy – just to name a few areas of responsibility. And really what I want to get into is what it’s like working with her.
I worked with Becca much more closely than anybody else in the company. I quickly grew to appreciate her strong attention for detail, her consistent accountability, her willingness to experiment and try new things, and her love for challenges.
She can take direction just as she can make important decisions. She can give and receive constructive feedback, and she consistently looks for ways to improve, enhance, and inspire.
Essentially, Becca brings a mixture of compassion and competence to the workplace. She is flexible, accountable, creative, and consistently looking for ways to add value.

With appreciation,
Gregory Frye
