Description

In today’s episode of Brand (by design), we’re breaking down a VERY popular form of marketing & PR currently being utilized by Ryan Reynolds & Blake Lively: "Flood the zone".

I’m pulling back the curtain on what flood-the-zone PR actually is, the psychology behind why it works (even when it feels fake), and why — if their goal is long-term power and visibility — this is actually their smartest move right now.


We’ll cover:

  • The real difference between SEO flooding and SEO manipulation
  • How salience bias, cognitive fatigue, and narrative saturation are shaping public perception
  • How you can apply this to your next launch!


If you love understanding the strategy behind visibility — not just the surface-level celebrity gossip — this episode is for you.
