Hello Everyone,
I'm excited to share a new venture I started during my summer break. I've decided to bring joy and colour into our daily lives through a new business idea centred around mugs.
Why mugs? Because we all use them daily, they are not always as colourful and cheerful as they could be. My series of mugs is designed to kickstart your day—and your children's day—with positive energy. I believe that cheerful characters and vibrant colours can bring joy and positivity to every morning.
I have big dreams of promoting my shop on TikTok and other social media platforms, and I genuinely believe it could be a great success. However, I'm facing significant financial obstacles. The company I work with requires upfront payment for each mug they ship to my customers. Unfortunately, I don't have the funds to cover these costs immediately, limiting my ability to promote my products widely.
I need your help here. I cannot pay several thousand pounds upfront, a substantial barrier to growing my business. Without your support, I might be unable to fulfil large orders or meet the demand, and I don't want to disappoint potential customers.
How you can help:
Any donation, big or small, would be precious. Additionally, I am open to any advice that can help me launch this business. Your help would be greatly appreciated.
Colourful Mugs Can Positively Impact Mental Health
In our daily lives, seemingly minor details can significantly impact our overall well-being. One such detail is the presence of colourful mugs in our daily routine. Here's how they can positively affect mental health:
Brightening Moods:
Mugs' vibrant colours and cheerful designs can instantly lift your spirits. Bright colours evoke positive emotions and serve as a simple yet effective mood enhancer. Starting your day with a colourful mug can set a positive tone for the rest of the day.
Reducing Stress:
Drinking a warm beverage from a cheerful, colourful mug can be comforting. The familiarity and routine of using a favourite mug can provide stability and calm, helping to reduce stress and anxiety.
Promoting Mindfulness:
Using a uniquely designed mug encourages mindfulness. When you take the time to appreciate the design and colours, you're more present now. This small act of mindfulness can help improve focus and reduce feelings of stress.
Encouraging Positive Social Interactions:
Sharing a drink with someone using a fun, vibrant mug can create positive social interactions, which are crucial for mental well-being. These interactions can foster a sense of connection and community.
Enhancing Creativity:
Whether working from home or engaging in a creative hobby, a colourful mug can inspire innovative thinking and creative problem-solving.
Boosting Energy Levels:
Bright colours like yellow, orange, and red increase energy and alertness. Using a colourful mug in the morning can help you feel more awake and ready to tackle the day.
I've already had a couple of sales among friends, but the price has deterred some due to the high upfront costs. I've explored start-up funding and competitions, but most are geared toward companies with revenue.
I'm passionate about this project not just as a way to earn money but as a means to bring joy and positivity to everyone's daily routine. I have many ideas in mind, but they are currently just drafts, awaiting the chance to come to life.
Your support would mean the world to me and help make this dream a reality. Together, we can bring a smile to every morning.
Thank you so much for your kindness and support.
