About me.
I’m John Laing and I’m a writer.
If you use brand name products or spend much time online, you’ve probably seen or interacted with my work.
Lately, I’ve spent quite a bit of time creating promotional ideation for consumer packaged goods companies, creating web copy that gets results for CPA offers and squeeze pages and helping foreign companies americanize their copy. However, I’m comfortable with most forms of writing! My clients are agencies, manufacturers, marketers, start-ups, designers and even a psychiatrist or two.
