Consciously Crafted Sustainability Copywriting
You go above and beyond to create products + services with the Earth in mind.
Tell your story through data-driven, consciously created copy that sells.
Does this sound familiar?
You work hard to create a business that’s driven by value, not just profit.
You’re in business to do good. Your products and services help people + planet just as much as they turn a profit.
And you’ve got the certifications to prove it.
B Corp, 1% For the Planet, Climate Neutral, etc. You’ve done the work to prove that you do what you say you do, and you have no time for greenwashing nonsense.
But explaining that to your target market is another story.
You know that what you’re selling is worth every penny, but showcasing that value to your ideal customers? That’s where you’re struggling.
Plus, content marketing is not at the top of your to-do list.
You’ve got a million things on your plate, and sitting down to write a 1,000 word, SEO-optimized blog post is not one of them. And what even is SEO, anyway?
Then it’s time to hire an expert sustainability copywriter.
Build Relationships.
Eco-consumers are savvy. They want to know what you’re all about, and they want the details. The average consumer reads between 3-5 pieces of content before making a single purchase. With more and more companies practicing greenwashing, sharing relevant, well-researched, and trustworthy content is more important than ever.
Save Time.
Remember when you used to enjoy your morning coffee? Still waiting to book that vacation you’ve been putting on hold for years? Passing off your content marketing to an expert means that it’ll get done right the first time— and it’ll be off your to-do list for good. And working with a person— not a content mill— means you’ve got someone on your side.
Increase Profit.
Watch your business grow without sleazy marketing tactics or paid ad campaigns that require constant upkeep. Content marketing costs 62% less than traditional marketing, and it results in 3x the leads. And these strategies are in it for the long run. So you can keep your most loyal customer base engaged through the years.
The eco-friendly industry is growing every day.
But not everyone understands the value that your business offers. Even worse, more and more so-called “sustainable brands” are greenwashing their products. And customers are falling for it.
Explaining this to customers, however, can be more difficult than it seems. Differentiating yourself, offering value, and telling your story in a compelling way has never been more important than it is today. That’s where copywriting comes in…
What can copywriting do for your sustainable business?
Boost online presence + establish credibility
Solidify brand image and build lasting customer relationships
Convert browsers into customers
Maximize profits without increasing your workload— or maxing out your budget
“Karen has been wonderful to work with. She has done an excellent job turning our information into concise, engaging, and informative content. And her communication is great. She always lets me know when the work will be done and then delivers on time.”

Hey, I’m Karen.
Ever since my parents took me on my first trip down the Grand Canyon when I was six, I’ve spent my free time in the great outdoors. From hiking and climbing to cooking an amazing meal in the backcountry, time outside brings me joy and keeps me sane. I’m proud to work with and amplify the voices of sustainable brands that share my same values and appreciation for nature.
Why am I the sustainability copywriter for your business?
As an avid outdoor enthusiast with a passion for sustainable living and eating, I already know your target market, because I’m part of it. As the founder of a sustainable outdoor eating blog, and with experience as an environmental educator, my personal experience and knowledge back my writing. Along with thorough research, of course. This ultimately offers more value to you and your customers. My advanced education in Marketing and Creative Writing just completes the package. With me, you can be confident that you will be receiving copy that is consciously crafted with the unique values and needs of your environmentally-conscious customers in mind. Because your customers want to read something written by a real person- not just a robotic jumble of keywords and taglines.
“Karen is not just a great writer, she’s extremely knowledgeable about the applications of her writing, so she is able to make highly impactful suggestions and create truly useful content.”
— Clayton Hume, Founder of Rustek Collective
“Karen’s work is excellent. She works with a clear timeline and always delivers. She seeks clarity before beginning a project and delivers quality work always.”
