He also explains why authenticity is queen on organic media platforms.

One major theme? The balance of quality and quantity. Cooper breaks down how to build trust through storytelling and authenticity rather than chasing algorithms. He also touches on creating culture for a client—understanding their voice so deeply that you can loosen the reins on your content to make it feel intentional rather than forced advertising.
