We recently connected with Jerry Tsagamilis and have shared our conversation below.
Hi Jerry, thanks for joining us today. Naming anything – including a business – is so hard. Right? What’s the story behind how you came up with the name of your brand?
SkateYou App & Brand. The concept was to be something simple and regularly used like.. Thank You. Something related to skateboarding and personal, directed to You. Having a skateboarding company that starts with the word Skate played also a significant role for convenience purposes, search engines, getting discovered and such.
Jerry, before we move on to more of these sorts of questions, can you take some time to bring our readers up to speed on you and what you do?

We’d love to hear the story of how you built up your social media audience?
Building an audience on social media is a very serious task. It demands discipline in posting, quality of content, timing, the correct use of each social media platform, music, hashtags, high interaction with your followers and scouting for new ones by engaging at their content. It usually takes the combination of all of the above to build a legit organic based following database. The job doesn’t end when you gain a follower. You will have to offer a pleasant daily experience which will then dictate who unfollows you and who becomes a loyal follower and a potential costumer. SkateYou has been posting on their social media and blog daily and without any interruptions since day 1 and it has amazed more than 200k followers on Facebook.
We’d really appreciate if you could talk to us about how you figured out the manufacturing process.
SkateYou takes everything a luxury and a skateboarding brand has to offer and brings them together. Two different worlds yet beautifully merged. Designed with honor to skateboarding and style SkateYou uses multiple outside collaborators-vendors to meet top quality standards for each and every product. This is a never ending, creative and learning process. Have a look for yourself at skateyou.com
