STRATEGY & PARTNERSHIPS
Reimagining how brands and culture connect.
Good Authority unites the most credible voices in music and creative culture with brands to create collaborations with purpose and impact. We work with artists, talent and events to design campaigns that build brands and communities, whilst giving brands an authentic voice in culture.
Founded by Emily Copeland, a strategic brand builder and music lover, who has led creative and content-driven organisations in reimagining traditional business and commercial models. From launching national youth media brands, to leading music strategy for Australia’s public broadcaster, Emily champions innovative thinking that drives audience and brand growth.
We work with organisations and individuals in the music industry, brands seeking cultural relevance, and emerging opportunities across music technology.

Proven impact
Good Authority harnesses the power of creative talent and their communities to tell stories and build engaged communities. Our strategies create earned media opportunities via engaging ideas and authentic voices, and drive results.
We generated 3.5M weekly connections for a youth brand through talent aligned campaigns. We grew partnership revenue for a creative organisation by 700% YOY. We helped an Australian artist achieve a #1 album and multiple ARIA nominations through partner-integrated marketing campaigns. We saw a 185% increase in revenue for a major Australian festival whilst halving partnership execution costs.
