Calling the mixed up, overwhelmed, and just plain tired! I know how hard it is to tell your own story. Let me help. LaunchPoint Resume will uncover your unique differentiators and flaunt them by creating professional, humanized documents. My results prove that job seekers who work with a professional resume writer find a new job faster, often negotiate a higher starting salary, and have more confidence in their skills and abilities. Here are a few things you should know:

I deliver customized documents.

My process begins with a 60 minute intake/strategy interview where I’ll uncovers your strengths, career goals, and discuss achievements. Clients often start nervous, but my casual approach makes this consultation a great preparation method for a “real” interview because of the depth and focus during the call.

I don’t use pre-fab templates.

I’ve designed my own resume templates or instant downloads, but you’ll find that every resume I create looks different because every job seeker is different. My resumes aren’t like what you’ll find online or elsewhere: overly designed, wordy, and thin on content. Research, strategy, and content creation is what sets us apart. I spend an average of 8 to 10 hours per resume.

I stay small by design.

LaunchPoint Resume is a one-woman shop. And that’s intentional. I don’t take on a lot of clients so that I can ensure a personalized, high-touch service to the job seekers that I do serve. When you hire LaunchPoint Resume, you hire Lauren — no outsourcing. Ever.

Turnaround time for resume development is typically 7 business days from consultation to draft delivery. My fees are calculated based on the value and the ROI of our products and they’re also comparable to other industry professionals.


The LaunchPoint Resume Difference:

Optimized, enticing summary sections that convey value and core differentiators. In other words: I make you irresistible in about 5 bullet points.


My most popular packages are listed below, but I am happy to customize our services based on your unique needs. LaunchPoint Resume clients are of all industries and experience levels: recent college grads, seasoned professionals looking to make a career change, tech pros, and marketing geniuses. When you're ready to launch your career and outdo the competition, send us a message.  I’ll work with you until you are 100% satisfied with your product.

Resume Review - $107

Give your resume a competitive edge. The majority of resumes are never read by humans. Ensure your resume bypasses the applicant tracking system (ATS) and into the decision-maker’s inbox.
