How They're Here

S1 E009: Custom Sunglasses Company Rules Instagram


Listen Later

What is going on everyone, welcome to the ninth episode of How They’re Here. As always I’m Tyler Webb, and last week I was able to have a phenomenal conversation with the founder and CEO of Skyline Specs, Scott Ballard.  


Scott and I were firing on all of the same cylinders, from being students, to studying entrepreneurship, to starting a side hustle (or two) in school, to growing accounts with 10’s of thousands of followers, to freelancing our social media work, we had a ton in common which made for a great conversation and even better podcast episode.


Scott founded Skyline Specs as a class project, but now his custom engraved wooden-framed sunglasses can be seen representing nearly every major city across the country. Scott is using the power of social media influencers, the Mall of America and unabashed salesmanship to grow this business podcast by podcast.


I would recommend you stick around for the full episode this week (I mean, I think it’s in your best interest to listen to the full episode every week) because Scott and I get into some really interesting territory about buying Instagram accounts, leveraging 60,000+ followings, selling through Instagram, the reason behind making sunglasses and how he finds his creative and entrepreneurial passions.

I hope you all enjoy this episode, and learn a thing or two about how to become a better business person, influencer or creator, and gain some valuable insight into how they’re here.
