when you log in to unix box by default .profile ( for ksh ) runs to load defaults this same file can be used to customize your shell like changing your prompt , include functions and so on same way you can display message or run script.
.profile or other equivalent files are located in user HOME area and if its not there then create one. to view these files use ls -la command
