Meet Daniel GUASGUA | Founder and Ceo of cal state dog supplies

We had the good fortune of connecting with Daniel GUASGUA and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Daniel, can you walk us through the thought-process of starting your business?
the thought process behind starting my own business was a roller coaster mix emotions from being scared of failure and from overcoming the feeling real quick to just do it and take it step by step not to over think things but to always stay with faith and positive and approach my everyday task with a outcome that would benefit my brand and business

Let’s talk shop? Tell us more about your career, what can you share with our community?
what sets me part from others is the uniqueness of my shop from the urban and artistic point of view the feeling when you step into a urban pet store that carries all exclusive brands under one roof a1 customer service from your premium dog foods to your dog supplements one on one customer service and knowledge on your dogs nutrition.

I’m proud of just starting the business and not quitting and making a difference in my community and providing the best experience when you shop for your fur friends inside a small business.

I’m excited to see what the world of the dog industry holds for me excited to branch out and expand my business idea to a city near you.

The journey of building a brand and business is not for the weak minded it is a very hard road with lots of obstacles you need to over come.im here today standing with all my life’s saving and investments with a lot of sacrifice but i believe that i will achieve on building and establishing my business for the long run. Nothing is easy in life once you over come the fear of failure the rest will set in place as you go i overcame challenges by staying in faith and staying positive no matter what happens. There’s no such thing as building Rome overnight it takes time to build your brand and business with hard work and deduction and sacrifice you will see results consistency is a major tool in my tool box.

I would like the world to know that a kid from mid city los Angeles with big dreams and visions was never given a opportunity to ex[press my business ideas and visions and sometimes you got to take matters to your own hands and approach a high risk opportunity to benefit a high reward. Anything is possible if you willing to invest time and money and focus on building marketing and networking and getting out of your comfort zone. My brand is build around the culture and for the love of all breeds of dogs.

Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc.
first spot we would hit is the Glendora public market and grab some drinks and enjoy some ramen others spots i would go to is downtown Covina visit some of the restaurants on the strips.

Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
my main motivation for my success are my kids they keep me on track and on task everyday why i gotta keep going and pushing my brand and business

But of course i have social media followers that have been supporting me from the start
mentorship love and encouragement i find as the journey of building my business goes

i want to dedicate this shout out to my brother, my kids and my followers and staff at the shop from the k9 trainers to my dental and grooming team and to anybody i left out with out your love and support i would not be here .
