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.

She has helped us portray our message to help consumers kick plastic while being informative and educational! Lauren is a hard worker, has always provided us with the content in a timely manner, and she is dedicated. We are extremely happy with her work.

Our company hired Lauren to fix some issues with our Google Business Profile. She was very detailed throughout every step of the process. I will definitely use her services again in the future. Highly recommend!

 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.

What the heck is going on? Copy by LP FAQ's!

  • As a sustainable copywriter I help your brand communicate your message in a way that’s trustworthy, non-greenwashy, and authentic. We can sell your product or service without being pushy, aggressive or condescending.
  • As a sustainable consumer myself, I understand what it’s like to feel eco-anxiety. The overwhelming feeling of needing to do something but not really being able to do anything at all.

Do I need to hire a copywriter?

Do I need to hire a copywriter?

  • If you’re asking if you can write your own copy of course you can. It’s your life. HOWEVER, just because you’re good at writing doesn’t necessarily mean you’re good at website copywriting, sales copywriting, or SEO copywriting. 
  • Listen, as small businesses owners the pressure to do everything ourselves is constant. But I think we both know when you start bringing people who are good at what they do onto your team — everything changes. 
  • It’s also worth mentioning that new website copy is generally a one time service that most likely won’t need to be updated for a year or two if not more. It continues to pay off well beyond its initial investment.

Do you use AI in your copywriting? 

Do you use AI in your copywriting? 

  • I use AI as a tool. And even then usually as a last resort (because hello environmental toll). When I use it, I do so to help me brainstorm and consider different perspectives in my writing. I never use AI to generate a piece or partial piece of copy or content. Everything I deliver is unique and original, created by me. 
  • Generative AI is a great tool when used correctly but it cannot replace human writing (and it won’t do you or me any good to try).

Why is website copy so important? 

Why is website copy so important? 

  • Copy is personal, it’s emotional and relatable and people buy with emotions. Your website may or may not be the first place people find out about you but you better believe it’s where they’re going for more information about you. Your website needs to cover a lot of territory: it needs to be relatable, it needs to tell a story, it needs to feel authentic, and it needs to understand all those things about your ideal customer. If your website copy doesn’t do it for them, they’ll leave and find another one that does.

Why am I hearing SEO is dead? 

Why am I hearing SEO is dead? 

  • Respectly I’d like to tell you to get off the tech-bro internet. No, SEO is not dead. Yes, AI has changed search results, but what do you think they’re reading to find their results (hint: seo).

Is SEO important for small businesses? 

Why am I hearing SEO is dead? 

  • Yes! SEO is not just for the big brands with tons of money. This is why I love working with small businesses! A small business SEO strategy is much simpler yet still strategic and effective. It helps you get in front of the right audience and grow your authority so over time you can rank better. Your small business deserves a custom, affordable strategy that works within your budget to help you reach your ideal customers.

What’s so great about organic traffic? 

What’s so great about organic traffic? 

  • Organic traffic is the bees knees. Unlike paid traffic that stops working when you stop paying, organic traffic gets better with time and consistency. That means an organic SEO strategy can last you years depending on your businesses growth and goals.

What is the Meaningful Traffic you keep referring to

What is the Meaningful Traffic you keep referring to

  • So glad you asked. You’ll find a lot of programs and promises online to get you on the first page of Google, but not much clarity after that. 
  • My sustainable strategies ensure we’re reaching people who are searching for your product or solution. We’re not tricking them with clickbait or buzzwords. We’re looking for relevant keywords to your business that have consistent monthly traffic that’s attainable for you. 
  • It doesn’t matter if you’re on the first page of Google for a keyword that’s irrelevant to your business — or worse, brings you no traffic because the keyword has no volume.

What Is Sustainable SEO?

What Is Sustainable SEO?

  • Sustainability means two things: I’m referring to sustainable SEO in two ways. The first is that focusing on growing organic, meaningful traffic means that we’re doing it the right way the first time and it’s going to keep getting better with time. That means it’s sustainable for you now and in the future because it’s not going to break or become obsolete. 
  • The second way I’m referring to sustainable SEO is in the sense of the industry of sustainability. One of the aspects I love about working in the sustainability industry is the ethics and morals that brands carry with them. But sometimes it can feel like you have to give up those ethics and morals just to help your website rank — I’m here to tell you — you do not have to do that.  
  • I will never set your site up to rank for a word, phrase, blog, or page that isn’t relevant or doesn’t align with your brand. And you don’t have to. You always have the final say.
