Sunnies Studios, Inc., launched in 2013, is now one of the country’s biggest eyewear stores. The brand, which is described as fresh and trendy with a touch of vintage has now 30 outlets now rolled out across the country.
Georgina Wilson together with fellow entrepreneurs and friends Bea Soriano, Eric Dee, and Martine Cajucom confessed that putting up an eyewear business wasn’t easy. The partners continued to tell that it took a relevant amount of time and effort to open their first shop.
Georgina shared, “We pursued building Sunnies knowing the challenges that lie ahead. That’s why it is also good that the four of us decided to do this together because we complement each other’s ideas and vision for the brand.”
Doing the legwork all by themselves–choosing the sunglass designs, making the shop posters, and heavy lifting stocks to the trunks of their cars–led the team to better understand their business venture inside out.
The team also shared that social media promotions is one of the key factors that helped Sunnies Studios get to where it is today. Also expressing the need for a reliable connection, staying in touch even on-the-go lets entrepreneurs like the Sunnies team to run their operations wherever they are. Eric Dee said, “We make sure our outlets have internet access and that we are all equipped with mobile data for instant internet connection anytime, anywhere. That’s why we subscribe to a Globe myBusiness Postpaid Plan which allows us to mobilize our teams through texts, calls, and data whenever a big opportunity such as the Labor Day promo comes along.”
“To move at the quick pace that consumers are accustomed to today require tools and solutions made specifically for businesses like Sunnies Studios. We have powered Sunnies’ communication requirements to enable them to grow their brand in their own terms and at their own pace,” added Martha Sazon, Globe senior vice president for Small & Medium Business Group. Sazon continued that it is a privilege to be a part of every business’ journey and added, “With partner start-ups like Sunnies and with driven business owners like Georgina, Eric, Bea, and Martine, we continue to better understand what entrepreneurs need and what will make their business a success.”
