The Video Teacher

Today we connect with Andrew Jeschke of GASDIGITAL PRODUCTIONS. Andrew was one of my first students at Alpharetta High School in my film and video program. He not only succeeded in our startup video program, he went on to create a super niche in the world of high school sports video. He worked out of his parents' basement as a fledgling startup and grew his company to support his new family. He has some great nuggets of pure business wisdom that he shares....check it out!
