Sustainability Copywriter

For Your Mission-Driven Brand

Spread your message. Spend more time chasing sunsets.

 

Your brand is more than just a brand.

Whether you’re an established eco-entrepreneur or your green business is just beginning to bud — your brand is built on values that are deeply rooted.

You’re more than mindful of the fact that conscious consumers are casting their dollars to vote for brands that share their values.

But are you doing everything you possibly can to secure their vote? To stand out from the competition? To declare your values to the world?

Values like:

  • All-natural ingredients

  • Sustainable packaging and sourcing

  • Recycled and upcycled materials

  • Fair labor and fair trade around the world

  • Slow fashion practices

  • Ethical business processes — all day every day

  • Commitment to serving the community and planet in the long term

You know your consumers are not just interested in spending money.

They’re interested in doing business with brands they trust — ones that stand out from the rest. Brands with a mission like yours.

That’s why you need an online space that shouts your mission from the rooftops.

But as a business owner, you’re already burnt out from the day-to-day duties.

How can you possibly have the time and energy to shout anything from the rooftops? Let alone the epic vision and mission that is the heart and soul of your company?

That’s where I come in.

Hi! I’m Jordan, your new copywriter. As a passionate business owner and conscious consumer, I understand both sides.

I want your mission to succeed — because consumers deserve brands like yours.

Why hire a copywriter?

Well, do any of these sound like you?

  • You know what people are searching in Google to find products like yours — simple phrases like: “sustainable fashion brands” or “non toxic makeup brands” — but you notice your website is nowhere to be found in the search results.

  • You feel like you need to produce more content to really connect with your target audience, but you just don’t have time.

  • Your website copy is bland and outdated. You need a complete overhaul to make sure your site really speaks your customer’s lingo, but the thought of writing brings you back to your dreaded high school English class.

  • You really don’t understand why so many of your competitors have a blog. What’s the point? Are you missing something?

  • You haven’t been able to find anyone who can capture the exact brand voice you’re looking for ...yet.

But don’t worry, I tackle the overwhelm that you feel when you read that list. I make it easy for you to spread your message and show up for your customers — using your unique brand voice, Search Engine Optimization (SEO), and genuine care.

Don’t worry, you’re in good hands.

 
Over the last two years, Jordan has truly become an extension of our internal team. She is an extremely skilled copywriter with a deep knowledge of sustainability, and she always takes the time to understand our mission, values, and requests. She never hesitates to ask questions and welcome feedback, producing copy and providing recommendations that always exceed our expectations. We’re consistently impressed by her ability to manage several projects at once, and we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to any brand looking for a reliable, organized, and talented copywriter.
— Marketing Team, SH Hotels & Resorts
 
Working with Jordan was a pleasure—her natural writing skills are well-researched, timely, and consider the larger systems and cultural conversations around sustainability. Jordan wrote a guest article for my blog, ADIMAY.com, about the social and environmental impacts of face masks, and she was able to embed multiple sources and POV after we discussed the angles we wanted to explore. I recommend her for anyone looking to elevate their content to be timely, educational, and hard-hitting!
— Aditi Mayer, Sustainable Fashion Creative & Founder of ADIMAY

Jordan is very professional and thoughtful in her approach. Her communication is clear, and she meets deadlines. We will definitely work together again on more projects.
— Jordan Nodarse, Founder and Creative Director at Boyish

I’m so impressed with Jordan’s writing and her ability to use her fresh perspective and voice to promote Label B’s core values. She’s able to turn any tough sustainability topic (like microplastic pollution) into a tool to raise awareness and empower consumers to support sustainable brands. I know I can turn to Jordan for any future copy work and won’t hesitate to recommend her to my network.
— Bri O'Shea, Founder and Designer at Label B

Straight out of the (writer’s) gate with her first assignment, Jordan came through with exactly what I wanted. She provided professionally written, compelling copy that proved an interesting read. In my 30+ years of editing, I’ve rarely encountered such flawless, straightforward, fresh prose. If you’re looking for a writer who delivers, look no further than Jordan.
— Linda Lauby, Owner of Outer Banks Press

Writing copy is an art form. And as an artist, I can say with authority that Jordan’s writing is finely crafted. With very little direction, she created web copy that captured my voice, paired words with images, and gave my website true balance. Jordan’s delivery is both timely and professional, and working with her is always a positive, seamless experience.

A bit about me…

Hey there! I’m Jordan, a freelance sustainability copywriter.

I live on the Outer Banks of North Carolina. On a 1-mile-wide slice of land — essentially a noodle — floating between the Atlantic Ocean and the Currituck Sound.

Living here has opened my eyes to both the immense beauty and complete vulnerability of our planet. It got me thinking about all the ways my choices impact the Earth on a daily basis. Immediately, I felt totally overwhelmed.

Everything I’ve been subconsciously taught throughout my life about what products to buy and where to buy them has been so royally fu… flawed!

How am I just realizing this now? In my adult life? After I’ve spent so much time and money supporting companies who only care about turning a profit?

So maybe these companies have weaseled their way to the top in the past, but not anymore because of businesses like yours. Because lucky for us:

Times are changing. Values are prevailing. Consumers are reacting.

I’m one of these consumers, and it’s my passion to spread the message of companies like yours. Companies who uphold a responsibility to their planet, workers, and consumers.

I truly believe your message deserves to be heard. Because I wish messages from brands like yours reached me sooner.

So why work with me?

I understand your target audience because I am your target audience.

I’m committed to translating your unique voice into strategic copy that shouts your mission from the rooftops.

And just like your brand, I’m focused on strategies that are sustainable in the long term.

 
 
 
 

 

TL;DR

Because I know you’re busy, and my website is long.

  • I’m a freelance sustainability copywriter (but you probably know that if you just jumped here from my website title).

  • If you own a sustainable brand (or if you hate the word sustainable but still have an awesome, mission-driven brand), let’s be friends.

  • Your business needs compelling copy. Either you already know that, or you will find out soon.

  • I’m good at what I do — copywriting, researching, communicating, understanding your brand and needs. You can trust me when I say that because my business relies on my follow-through.

  • Yes, I have worked with other brands in the industry and yes, they’ve enjoyed my work.

  • At the end of the day, my goal is to make your life easier while increasing your conversions.

  • If you have any questions or hesitations about working with me, or you just want to chat about an exciting project — please reach out! I’m a real human.
