Description

Most creators chase growth. The ones who actually scale build systems, discipline, and leverage behind the scenes.

Rich Somers sits down with Brair Cochran, who’s worked closely with top creator Shelby Sapp, to break down what really drives brand scale heading into 2026—and why most people are focusing on the wrong levers. From audience growth and content strategy to positioning, partnerships, and long-term brand equity, this conversation cuts through surface-level tactics and gets into what actually compounds.

Brair shares the biggest mistake creators make when trying to grow, the quiet advantage top creators understand early, and why scaling a personal brand isn’t about doing more—it’s about building smarter. The discussion explores how creators should think about visibility vs. credibility, short-term wins vs. long-term leverage, and why brand decisions made today determine who still matters two years from now.

Rich and Brair also dive into what separates creators who plateau from those who build durable brands, how to think like a business instead of a content machine, and what creators must prioritize now to stay relevant and scalable in 2026.

This is a grounded, strategy-first conversation for creators, founders, and personal brands who want more than followers—and are focused on building something that lasts.
