I've been a copywriter since 2011, and specialise in saving people from website shame. You know the feeling... You give someone your business card, hoping they won't check out your website. I also deal with the fiddly business of on-page SEO — so your sparkling new content gets noticed by more people. And if you've been putting off writing blogs, whitepapers, case studies or anything that needs well-chosen words, put it off no longer. Ask me to do it for you.

Hello! I'm here to support you and your team with the words you need and, crucially, a working style you'll love. Working style I'm not just a writer. I'm a writer who's good to work with.

Specialisms I've worked on all types of projects in the past. I particularly enjoy working with professional service organisations, SMEs and HR tech firms. I enjoy long-form content writing, especially blogs and whitepapers. Skills I'm commercially aware and know my way around a P&L or share of market report. I love to dig into the figures to pull out juicy facts that we can use to strengthen your story. I'm SEO-smart. Not an expert, but more than capable of optimising copy in line with your objectives. I'm relatable and love helping non-experts become more confident at writing for their roles. This makes my training and mentoring service especially popular. I'm UK-based, in the South East of England. But don't let that stop you if you're based elsewhere. So long as you have a phone and the internet, we'll get on just fine. Want to know what others say?

"Laura quickly managed to articulate my tone in a friendly but business-like fashion from the outset, and she is now helping me with other content for my business. I love the way Laura works - structured and organised with an informal and friendly approach, patient and always delivering to deadlines."
