Believe it or not, there was a time in our industry when copywriters ruled. Tasked with leading the creative process, they would craft headlines based on brilliant strategies and slip them under the office doors of their art director cohorts. Only then would their second class colleagues embark on the relatively easy task of “coming up with a visual.”

My, how times have changed. Today the tables have not only turned–they’ve been upended –as our industry seems to now be ruled more and more by The Visual. Nowhere is this more evident than in today’s digital marketing mix.
