Alright – so today we’ve got the honor of introducing you to Chundrayvia Gill. We think you’ll enjoy our conversation, we’ve shared it below.
Hi Chundrayvia , thanks for joining us today. Let’s start with the story of your mission. What should we know?
Hi, I’m Chundrayvia Gill I’m a Personal Fashion Stylist that has changed the lives of many women by guiding and helping them create a style that is comfortable and unique to them. Making it easy for them to show up with confidence and boldness. Letting them know it’s okay to be The Effect in the room. The CG Effect was established in February 2020. Where I started working on becoming a certified lash tech and then I soon push to open up my very first online boutique. Although it was not an easy task running all three business at once I knew that my passion was helping other women in their styling needs. So recently this year 2022 I decided to do without my online boutique and lash services and focus more on my personal styling needs for women. This became the best decision I ever did for not only for my business but for myself. I was able to illuminate stress and be there 100% for each client mentally. My goal is to always connect with all my clients on a personal level because with styling any client as a stylist this plays a big part in styling. I always ask my clients what brought them to me as a client it’s a beautiful thing when they can open up to me and share their amazing testimony on what made them decide to come to The CG Effect. My mission is to styling high-achieving women by taking the stress of getting dressed from day to day. I always tell my clients once you have a wardrobe that you feel confident and beautiful in, you then show up with undeniable confidence which then becomes at natural feeling. My mission is for anyone that comes in contact with The CG Effect to show up knowing that they are put together and also feeling put together weather it’s for a date night in a job setting or if they’re representing there business and brand . My mission is for my clients to show up feeling cute & sexy and serving much class. My goal is to always push each client to step out and start fresh do away with old clothing habits. I always say it’s time to elevate your life through your style I’m here to take the stress and guesswork away all you have to do is sit back and relax.
Chundrayvia, love having you share your insights with us. Before we ask you more questions, maybe you can take a moment to introduce yourself to our readers who might have missed our earlier conversations?
In 2020 The CG Effect was created. During the time I only started off with pursuing as a certified lash tech. I thought maybe God was done with me. Well I was wrong he had so many things that he wanted me to share with the world. I then became a personal stylist I’ve always been able to dress myself but my heart has always wanted to help others. At the time I didn’t understand why God was calling me to this assignment then I remembered Life can throw some of the most traumatic blows, but I will always bounce back and recover and that My Faith makes me Resilient. The CG Effect shared purpose and passion for Lash + Fashion and much more. After getting so many different women all across the world loving my style of fashion I immediately started brainstorming. I’ve always wanted women all sizes to love themselves inside and out. The goal will always be to empower woman with services no matter the body type. The message that I work so hard to get out to all women young or old is to always understand the importance of feeling beautiful at any age and style. After transitioning this year to only pursuing my dreams in personal styling I can say it has been much different as I’ve been able to connect with so many women across the world that really loves The CG Effect. I don’t take it for granted. I make sure my styling services are clear for all my clients and to let them know I am here for them every step of the way. I’m very proud that I can share my testimony with my clients what I have experienced as a young women growing up. I’m happy that I can help another women along the way that I can empower them. I wasn’t always who I am today it definitely took discipline and lots of faith and time spent with GOD I didn’t always have that strong confidence or to begin to help others with styling. It’s truly a blessing of what God can do in your life and what he has graced me with to encourage others and help them feel beautiful in themselves and enough and confident in their clothing and what they wear.
How did you build your audience on social media?
Building an audience from scratch was definitely my main struggle. In the beginning this is when reels became so much popular and I was still trying to understand how I could be in front of a camera and not do anything awkward. I had to understand being myself was the most important thing my audience wanted to see. I always told myself being authentic is the key. Showing my audience how I got here and my everyday steps I take to make The CG Effect better for my clients is my main goal. When I first started to build my audience my main goal was to figure out who my target audience was. Who was my main focus to pull to my page to interact with on all my social media platforms. It definitely matters what I put out as content. As I begin to kick off my content myself It did become stressful because I needed a smoother transition and help with consistency. I then invested into getting a social media manger team who literally saved my life. This team wasn’t just any team these girls were fabulous and top tier and definitely knew what The CG Effect needed. They were able to help me organize all my social media platforms and they also made sure I could focus on all other aspects of my business while they ran all social media platforms for me. So I say this to say it’s okay to invest into your business it’s okay to have help from others. I had to learn you can’t do it all on your own you need a team to balance . Having a clean platform and consent content for your target audience and interacting with them daily helps with building your audience and keeping them involved. If you ever need any assistance with social media management please check out Kendall Media Co. and JD Virtual Assistance Located in Atlanta Ga. And tell them I sent you! Don’t be afraid to invest and to get the help you need.
Learning and unlearning are both critical parts of growth – can you share a story of a time when you had to unlearn a lesson?
A lesson that I had to unlearn is thinking I can do it all on my own. Thinking that I knew it all as a new young business owner. In this case I really had to tell myself it’s okay to learn from others and its okay to ask questions. In the personal styling industry I have met some phenomenal women. Women that has allowed me to grow with them and learn with them. I have been put in some great positions and I can’t wait to share with the world on these next couple of projects I have coming. My Goal is to push and create a legacy and generational wealth for myself and my family and my children’s children. This is my life this is my passion. My Ultimate Goal is to continue to get out in the community and serve and to help as much as I can. Not only do I serve as a Style expert, but I serve as the face of my brand in my community and in surrounding communities around me. I’m glad that I had to see that asking for help and getting out in the community to learn helped me put together the importance of my business and to make connections all over the world. My advice to anyone starting a business be sure to get out and take control and show who you are not just on social media but in person in your surrounding communities. Don’t be afraid to connect with others don’t be afraid to voice who you are and what your mission is. Go above and beyond and never stop believing in what God has created for you and your brand. After transitioning this year to only pursuing my dreams in personal styling I can say it has been much different as I’ve been able to connect with some many women across the world that really loves The CG Effect. I don’t take it for granted. I make sure my styling derives are clear for all my clients and to let them know I am there for them every step of the way. I’m very proud that I can share my testimony with my clients what I have experienced as a young woman. I’m happy that I can help another women along the way that I can empower the next person. I wasn’t always who I am today it definitely took discipline and lots of faith and time spent with GOD I didn’t always have that strong confidence or to begin to help others be lifted up. It’s truly a blessing of what God can do in your life and what he has graced me with to encourage others. To let them know that their beautiful inside and out. That they are enough and confident in their clothing and what they wear.
