I started freelance writing as a freshman in college. By my third year, it had turned into a full-time job: 1,800 words a day and roughly $6,000 in income per month.

After graduating in June 2016, I joined HubSpot as a writer on the Sales Blog. One year later, I was promoted to Editor.
I pioneered a new “organic first” strategy that helped the Sales Blog break through a 1.5-year traffic plateau. This strategy was so successful that five months later, I moved to the SEO team in a brand-new position. As Senior Content Strategist, I create the editorial strategy for all three of HubSpot’s Blogs. The results have been pretty good:
When I'm not brainstorming ideas or furiously typing away, you'll find me reading, geeking out about cool tech, or researching my latest obsession (UI/UX, consumer psychology, venture capital, to name a few).
I still love to freelance, so if you've got an interesting project, please shoot me a message at aja.t.frost@gmail.com.
