Nice to meet ya. I’m Joe, the founder of Gage Sunglasses.
I thought I'd share a little checklist to help tell the story of how this company came into existence. So here it goes, in no particular order.
Can you relate?
🏞️ I prefer to be outdoors
🏖️ I love being a beach bum
❤️ Family and close friends are everything
🌮 I'm always down for tacos and margaritas
☀️ I love the heat
🥶 I’m not a winter person
💰 I value comfort vs overpaying for brands
🧑🏽🤝🧑🏻 I love helping people
🤷♂️ My college nickname was Gage
🛏️ It's the name of the dorm I lived in
😎 I believe in our product and our service to you
🫶 I LOVE my community of fans/customers
☝🏼 I’m especially proud of that last one
Sheesh, you probably felt like you were reading a dating profile at the start of that, huh?
No but really, I started Gage back in 2015, so it's basically my baby and I love watching it evolve. I treat every order that comes in like it’s a personal gift that I’m sending to a friend.
With that being said, if I had to pitch one thing about Gage, it’s this:
You’re the hero in this story, not me. I’ll just try to help you the best I can.
I hope to be sending you a package of our fan favorites real soon.
- Joe
PS: Thanks for taking the time to read that. I’m grateful!
