Angelica Hoyos is Founder & Creative Director of AH! Digital Growth, a digital marketing agency. In this episode, we discuss everything from what is graphic design and building a brand that stands out to finding a niche and hiring the right types of talent.

It's important to understand the connection between design, copywriting, and your brand. As Angelica explains, good design is "visual communication". When creating an ad campaign or a new website, the best teams give designers, copywriters, and strategist a seat at the table. One role is not more important than another.
