160: Gründerreisen til Caroline Leithe
Caroline Leithe, gründeren bak Bokso.no, deler sin reise fra å være en drømmeansatt til å drive en nettbutikk med investorer og ansatte. Hun ble inspirert til å starte Bokso da hun selv manglet organiseringsprodukter til hjemmet, og hun fant ut at det var et behov i markedet. Etter å ha gjennomført en markedsundersøkelse og fått investorer, lanserte hun Bokso.no i april 2022. Hun har bygd opp en stor Instagram-konto (@ordenogsystem) og har nå en ansatt som hjelper henne med å drive virksomheten. Caroline ser for seg å utvide Bokso til Sverige i 2024.
