Darren Cooper is the Founder and CEO of 1898 Creative, a story-driven video agency that helps coaches and consultants grow their authority with video. He’s also the creator of the Content Creation Operating System, a done-for-you video strategy system that takes the stress out of showing up online. When he’s not geeking out over storytelling frameworks, he’s wrangling four kids with his wife Lauren—Story, Vinyl, Indiana, and Valor. Yes, those are their real names… and yes, it’s exactly as wild as it sounds.
