Sonja Rasula, Founder & CEO of Unique Markets, On Clubhouse Tips & Sharing Your Voice As An Asian-American Woman

Sonja Rasula is the founder and CEO of Unique Markets, the direct-to-consumer brand Care Package, and host of the podcast, "SOS with Sonja Rasula".  Sonja saw a gap in the market for an elevated shopping experience — something cooler than the mall, more curated and fresh than a flea market, one that showcased emerging brands and entrepreneurs, with a focus on community and a unique IRL experience.  So she launched the LA-based Unique Markets in 2008, which has since had spinoff events across the U.S. over the years. But when the pandemic hit last year and forced the IRL driven Unique Markets to stop operating ASAP, Sonja emerged with plan B: Care Package.  As someone with over a decade of experience as a founder, and years of experience in the retail and decor space, Sonja offers up her tactical advice to small business owners on her "real-time" style podcast, "SOS with Sonja Rasula." In this episode, Sonja shares her tips on gaining a large following on Clubhouse, being a strong voice as an Asian-American woman, and being a champion for small business owners -- before the term "Shop Small" existed.  Spring Pop-Up: https://www.uniquemarkets.com/losangeles Unique Markets Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/uniquemarkets Unique Markets Website: https://www.uniquemarkets.com Sonja Rasula Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/sonjarasula Care Package Website: https://www.hellocarepackage.com Listen Sonja Rasula's podcast: SOS With Sonja Rasula Produced by Dear Media

Om Podcasten

“Share Of Voice” is a podcast about the power of discovering your voice and sharing your truth in the process. Hosted by journalist Karin Eldor, each episode features compelling conversations with the wave makers and game changers on our radar. Less “how I built this” and more “how I make noise,” guests will share how they amp it up in their work. Do they express themselves boldly in their OOTDs or beauty looks, on their social media channels, or in every way, on the daily? It’s about creating ripple effects. Feeling heard. Shaking up the status quo and breaking way out of the boxes that society has imposed on us. We’ll discuss doubling down on yourself unapologetically, and raising your frequency so much that you take up ALL. THE. SPACE. Prepare for inspiring soundbites and mic drop moments, from the disruptors who have made a living from living out loud. You ready to get loud af?
