The Beginning of CGul Design
The story of CGul Design started with the support of my family. As a young girl, my favorite hobby was drawing. No one in the family is a professional artist, but my father calls himself a "doodler" and thus I became a "doodler" as well. The family love my illustrations, from my grandparents to my little niece, they have supported me into starting this business. The business is small, but my family has also become apart of CGul Design. As a family, we hope this business will grow.
Our goals are to grow first on Etsy. Then to start a small shop in the town or a town near by once we have enough income. The goals could go on forever, but right now, I, as well as my family, are learning from starting CGul Design. We hope to gain a lot of knowledge from beginning our business on Etsy and we hope we can help others gain more knowledge as well.
The story is short for now. As the years go on, the story of CGul Design will grow and hopefully, my story will help other starting business to grow.
