Today we’d like to introduce you to Jesse Anderson.
Hi Jesse, so excited to have you with us today. What can you tell us about your story?
My name is Jesse Anderson, and I have always had a love for the outdoors. It all started from my dad taking me fishing every week when I was 3 til I started to make a career from fishing tournaments and creating content in college. I soon dropped out of college to just go for my dreams and never look back. Everyone said not to do that, but I trusted my goals. I fished for years and absolutely loved it till I got more into the media and business side of the outdoors. I started being creative with it in photography, videography, and graphic design. I also missed all my other outdoor hobbies, like hunting and snowboarding, since fishing took all of my time up. I dropped everything I had and moved across country alone to make it work for me. Working 120 plus hours a week 7 days a week to reach my goals. I started to get my foot in the door with content creation and marketing, and it started to grow fast. So, I decided to make this my full-time career and started a business named Grizz Media, an outdoor media agency. The name came from my nickname in high-school, “bear” and my fascination of grizzly bears. We specialize in photography, videography, graphic design, brand development, and more. Working with some of the biggest brands in the outdoor industry and building a name for myself while I get to do what I love every day. It’s more of a lifestyle now than career. As I started to grow, I needed help, so I found some people I trusted to grow with me. Now we are a fast-growing small team of young outdoorsman looking to thrive at what we love to do. There is still so much I have planned for myself and my team. I can’t wait to keep growing this team and getting to travel the world while building a great company and more like it.
I’m sure you wouldn’t say it’s been obstacle free, but so far would you say the journey has been a fairly smooth road?
It’s been everything but smooth, but that’s all part of the process and how I got to where I am with myself being self-taught on everything I do. All the skills and knowledge I have, I learned by taking them head on and failing over and over to get better.
Appreciate you sharing that. What should we know about Grizz Media?
We work primarily in the outdoor industry. Helping outdoor brands develop and grow into successful well-known companies. We do photography, videography, graphic design, brand development, and more. We are most known for our photography on all of out hunting adventures. Helping capture and market the brands we use to be successful along the way. What sets us apart is our drive, we are a team of all mid-20-year-olds, and our ambition and drive pushes us farther than most can think of. Our goals never end, and neither does our grind. I am very proud of our team the goals we set for ourselves, the ambition we have motivates each other daily. We have a very supportive team who pushes each other daily. We will work to the last second with raw fingers to get done what’s needed. We won’t be outworked.
