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
