Unique Impressions, a beacon of girl power and everyday inspiration, emerged onto the entrepreneurial scene on May 5, 2024.
The venture, a brainchild of Trisha Wilkinson, is a testament to the power of individual initiative and the desire to make a difference.
THE INSPIRATION BEHIND THE VENTURE
What led to me opening this business is that I wanted to start my own business, and I wanted it to be something that speaks to girl power and basic everyday life.
Trisha Wilkinson
The journey to entrepreneurship began with a simple browsing session on an online shopping app.
One day, I was browsing an online shopping app, and I saw this really cute glass with a very unique quote that said, “She who kneels before God can stand before anyone. It had a really nice picture to go along with it, and I was really impressed. I thought that these really outstanding glasses would make a difference.
Thus, the concept of Unique Impressions was born, driven by the desire to offer daily inspiration through visually striking designs.
SERVICES OFFERED: ELEVATING EVERYDAY ESSENTIALS
Unique Impressions specialises in predesigned glass mugs adorned with bamboo lid covers and straws, each exuding a blend of style and empowerment.
Additionally, bespoke designs tailored for parties, weddings, birthdays, and other occasions are available, ensuring every moment is celebrated in style. Moreover, the business goes beyond aesthetics to offer self-defence accessories.
The self-defence accessories would aid persons, especially women, to be able to put up a fight against aggressors. This thoughtful addition aims to empower individuals, particularly women, providing them with the means to protect themselves in everyday situations. We all aren’t privileged to have our own car or someone to transport us around so you find that persons are late on the park or simply trying to get to and from work, and it may be early in the morning or late at night. So, I think persons can have a little more assurance knowing they have something to protect them or raise an alarm.
PUBLIC RESPONSE: MAKING WAVES IN THE MARKET
While Unique Impressions is still in its infancy, initial reactions from the public have been overwhelmingly positive. Excitement surrounds the unique products and their ability to infuse everyday life with inspiration and empowerment. As the business continues to grow, its impact is poised to resonate even further.
I would say my business proposition is to provide something that gives daily inspiration to us women and the belief in girl power.
Trisha emphasises the core ethos of Unique Impressions, noting that it goes beyond mere products, and embodies a philosophy of empowerment and self-expression.
WORDS OF WISDOM FOR ENTREPRENEURS
Reflecting on her entrepreneurial journey, the founder offers sage advice to aspiring business owners:
Take time to invest in your future. The ideas you have floating around in your head, you need to make a reality. Take a leap of faith, and you will be surprised that one day, you can look back and see how your small business has grown into an empire.
A FINAL THOUGHT
If you find that you have extra time even as someone who already has a job, seek out an investment and become your own boss.
