Ready To see & be seen?

Empowering small business & amplifying sustainable voices through authentic storytelling, words that work, & SEO that stays true to your brands' mission & values.

Your SEO strategist
& website copywriter
wrapped into one

Why yes, that is me on a leash. Look at my grandma's glasses! That fanny pack! An icon.

I believe your personality, story, and commitment to sustainability should JUMP off the page. So let's build up your online presence, find your conscious consumers, and do it through sustainable strategies for small and eco brands. 

SEO & copywriting don't have to give you the ick. Over here, things look a little different... 
         SEO copywriting can be fun and creative.
         Your website is filled with words that bleed authenticity & realness. 
         Values lead the way and a hard sell is nowhere in sight (or on site).
         SEO strategies grow with your future goals.
         We treat clients like the people they are, not statistics or personas.
         SEO is easy to understand and even easier to implement. 
         There are no gimmick or get-quicks; just smart, ethical strategized SEO 
         The words and content on your site are authentically you, fun, and sustainable. 
         Tailored solutions lead the way because no two brands need the exact same thing
         Greenwashing is nowhere in sight


Your sustainableish, eco-anxiety-ridden SEO & copywriting partner

Finally, a partner/contractor/freelancer who gets sustainability.

We can talk shit, cry, and be excited while recycling the old, kinda-shady, kinda-icky ways of SEO & salesy marketing in favor of a more authentic, greener future.

(you see how I used 'green' there and it doesn't even make sense? I was testing you!). 

You don’t have to sell your soul in order to rank well and reach your ideal audience. 

let's chat! It's not too good to be true

A little closer… Okay, hi, I’m Lauren 😀 Cat lover (that’s Cat Perkins in the picture), avid book reader, no sabo Latina in a love/hate relationship with Chicago winters.

I started Copy by LP because I was (am) a sustainable consumer and I wasn’t getting what I needed from brands: real, authentic, & informative websites. As a small business owner looking for SEO tips, I was totally put off by shady & icky SEO tech bros.

So as the kids say, I pivoted. I decided if the tech-bros could do that (and charge that), then I could do it too (but nicer). 

I’m here for the girls (and everyone else) who want to grow your brands without the ick. Without feeling like you’re wading through bullshit. 
My goal is to create real, fun, birthday-wishing relationships with great people — like you! 
  • To treat you, my clients, like people.
  • To lead with kindness, empathy, and authenticity.
  • To always remember we’re just humans and we’re only here for a blip in the time-space continuum. 
  • To make SEO accessible, understandable, and exciting. 

Groundbreaking, I know…


But first, who am I?

But first, an introduction

Come on in, let's get personal!

Not enough stars to give Copy by LP. Our company has benefited tremendously from her thoughtful words and her knowledge about sustainability. Before Copy by LP it was VERY difficult to find someone who understood the sustainability sector and after every call, it was like, "Nope. They don't get it." With Copy by LP we have found the writing partner that we need and enjoy "geeking out" with. If you are on the fence on whether you need Copy by LP---hands down, DO IT.

KIND WORDS

 This was my first experience working with a copywriter and it has been so amazing. From the very beginning, Lauren was extremely professional during our consultation and she made it very easy to understand what her services were and how they would apply to my business. Once we got the ball rolling, she met all deadlines with ease and was very receptive to implementing my feedback when appropriate. Her creativity and ability to capture the voice of the brand really made me feel like I made the right choice. Lauren gets a ten out of ten in my book and I look forward to working with her again.

I rewrote this section like, 500 times and it really comes down to this: Sustainable SEO doesn’t make you or your customers feel like shit. 
  • I listen to what you need
  • I research & recommend
  • I give you the facts & information
  • Here’s where it gets wild: I ask your opinion
  • And we move forward with an organic SEO strategy that works AND doesn’t feel like you just sold your soul to the devil. 

Together, we create an organic SEO strategy that works and aligns with your values — no soul-selling required.

Trust me, I get why SEO & marketing can feel like the villain. More often than not, both are used as a tool to manipulate, trick, or sell garbage products under false pretenses. 

By avoiding SEO, copywriting & marketing altogether, we’re leaving the field wide open for the greenwashers.

They get to keep peddling their lies, profiting off misinformation, while genuinely mission-driven brands like yours struggle to get noticed. And worse? People lose trust in sustainability itself. That’s where I come in.


Running a sustainable, mission-driven brand is tough stuff

reADY TO Show up for your conscious consumers!

And now you want to come out here with sustainable copywriting & SEO? wHaT dOEs tHat EvEn MeAn?

Sustainable SEO isn’t about trickery. 

  • It’s about bringing your values to the forefront
  • Connecting you with the audience that’s already looking for you
  • And making sure your story gets heard.

Let me ask.... when was the last time you “nope-d” out of a page you found on Google search ASAP? Was it because of:
  • Bad grammar or unreadable structure?
  • A condescending tone?
  • Overly technical or irrelevant content?
  • Feeling like the brand didn’t get you?
  • Your question staying unanswered — or being too hard to find?
  • A totally irrelevant website? 

Writing about yourself is hard, I get it. Even I’ve thought about hiring a copywriter like, a million times. But here’s the thing: Your website might be the only way your audience connects with you.
  • Make it count. 
  • Make it human. 
  • Make it yours.

THIS is what your audience connects with. THIS builds trust. THIS is what lasts. THIS is sustainable copywriting & search engine optimization.
  • Non-manipulative
  • Human-driven
  • Personality-rich
  • Authentic
  • And designed to work for your brand over time.

Because us sustainability nerds just get it.
  • The guilt over using a plastic tube of toothpaste.
  • The joy of finding the perfect compostable dish brush.
  • The crushing “nothing-I-do-matters-so-what’s-the-point” spiral.
  • And the way we’ll avoid a plastic water bottle but impulse-buy single-use cat treats from Amazon.
  • But most importantly, we get that guilting, coercing, or shaming people for their choices doesn’t work.

Sustainability is a journey, and we’re all at different intersections. With sustainable content and SEO, your brand’s story becomes the compass, helping your audience find you, connect with you, and journey forward — together.
