“Shannon reports to me as blog and content manager at HubSpot. She’s done a fantastic job for us over the two and a half months that she’s been here. She’s a dedicated, hard-working and creative individual. I’ve been particularly impressed by her ability to tackle things she has little experience with. In our case that meant marketing content and analytics. Though she had never written about marketing before, she dove right into the blog, creating interesting, relevant marketing content daily. And while she doesn’t have lots of analytic experience, she became a data-driven blogger, leading the charge with important new analysis of our blog and its traffic relationship with other HubSpot properties. I recommend her highly.” January 10, 2010
