Copywriting for Educational Services and Beyond
Build trust, tell your story, and become a leading voice in education.
You’re here because you’re passionate about educating the next generation.
Education is an ever-changing field full of passionate and skilled educators, leaders, policy-makers, and creators.
Not to give you too big of a head, but you have the best:
Curriculum resources
Instructional support strategies
Educational online platforms
Professional development tools and courses
Adaptive software
Wrap-around services
You want to connect with these change-makers and introduce them to the products and services that:
Lead to student growth and success 🚀
Support teachers 🧑🏫
Connect families and teachers to resources 🤝
Streamline processes so teachers can focus on the work of teaching 🔃
Meeting these busy people where they are is tough - time is precious and information is coming from everywhere. You have made a product that changes lives. And you are pulling your hair out trying to get it into the hands that need it.
You need clear, concise, and authentic copy that reaches educators and those who support them. You need to convey how you have the solution to their problems through:
Blog posts that provide valuable strategies and connections through content
Email sequences that show up in their inbox when they need inspiration
Engaging SEO-optimized websites that rank high when they search for answers
But who has time for that?
That’s where I come in. With over 15 years in the education, I know the nuances of the field and can navigate the market to find spaces where your ideal clients hang out in (water cooler talk is a real thing 😉).
Imagine all the time you would have to:
Develop more impactful resources ✅
Pour into your staff ✅
Visit teachers and schools to stay connected ✅
Create and maintain your products and services ✅
Your time should be spent creating and maintaining innovative products and services - and you can leave the writing to me.
You have the thing and I can write copy that helps you connect with your audience and drive them to action.
“Innovation is the unrelenting drive to break the status quo and develop anew where few have dared to go.“
— Steven Jeffes
Hi, I’m Laura.
Passionate educator turned educational copywriter here 👋. I lean on my 15+ years of experience in education to write copy that engages educational communities and connects them to the things they need to push the next generation to their full potential.
I believe every student deserves access to education and the opportunities that open because of it. AND I believe every company deserves to have a quality writing partner that lightens their load so they can focus on the quality products and services they are putting out into the world.
In short, I have a passion for providing access to education for all students and a deep respect for those doing the gritty, day-to-day work to provide it.
Adapting content for different audiences is my expertise as a former English Language educator, and finding the voice and content that connects to your ideal audience is right in my wheelhouse ✨.
Education is shaped by paradigm shifts that are informed by the most current researched-based practices. Staying current and making these applicable to teachers, administrators, and parents takes time - time that you don’t have when you are building your company. Having a writing partner who knows how to navigate this can be a game changer for you, your staff, and your ideal customers.
Let’s change lives together.
Become a leading voice.
When you have a writing partner with a depth of knowledge in education, you won’t be spending time creating these avenues that build trusting customers - you will be working on creating the best products and services that move students forward. With an educational copywriter in your corner, you can take strategic copywriting off your plate.
Having a copywriting partner is like having a co-teacher with you in the classroom who can anticipate your moves and needs.
*When an overwhelmed teacher searches for the solution to her daily challenges, your SEO-powered website will show up on their web search for solutions.
*When an administrator wants to find a product to help raise their district test scores, your product will rank higher in the Google search.
*When a concerned parent is trying to find ways to support the unique needs of their child, your product, they will find your product or service more quickly than before.
I help grow educational companies and creators that:
Are seeking to support educators
Believe in empowering and educating their audience
Have a transformational product or service
Need to attract more ideal clients without adding more to their plate
Understand the value of copy that engages and converts

Common Questions
How it all works…
-
On a 15-30 minute call, you tell me about your copywriting needs and we decide if we are a good fit to work together. I will follow up with a proposal with my recommendations.
-
If you like where we are headed, you sign a contract and pay 50% of your invoice. Then I start working on a small test project like a blog post or email sequence.
-
We discuss timelines throughout the proposal process, but now is the time you relax and know your copywriting needs are in good hands.
-
Your first draft will be sent in Google Docs, along with the other 50% of your invoice. One round of revisions is included just in case I missed the mark somewhere.
-
Bring it on! We can have another call or email exchange that will evaluate the process, work through any challenges, and decide what’s next.
