Substack, Japanese Manufacturing, and Personal Brand Transitions

Author: Andrew Youderian | e-Commerce Entrepreneur March 21, 2025 Duration: 1:02:05

Are you feeling burnt out by social media but still trying to grow your brand? In this episode, I chat with Sonia Roselli, founder of Sonia Roselli Beauty, about navigating the ever-changing world of digital marketing, branding, and eCommerce. Sonia shares her journey building a successful beauty brand, the challenges of personal branding, and why she's rebranding her business while stepping back from social media's exhausting demands.

Listen in as we dive into the power of platforms like Substack and Bluesky, why traditional social media feels like a losing game, and how Sonia is shifting her marketing to focus on deeper connections with customers. We also talk about working with Japanese suppliers, building a team, and the realities of running a beauty brand in today's digital landscape.
