Fan Engagement at Scale — Social Media Operations
01 — Overview
At Fanatics, I supported high-volume fan communication across 600+ social media channels, managing real-time engagement during peak moments, live events, and high-traffic campaigns.
My role focused on maintaining clear, consistent, and on-brand communication at scale—ensuring fans felt heard while protecting brand integrity.
02 — Challenge
Fan interactions often involve high emotion, urgency, and ambiguity, ranging from order issues to public frustration during live events.
Each response required balancing:
Empathy for the fan experience

Alignment with brand voice and policy
All within a fast-paced, high-volume environment where inconsistency could quickly impact perception.
