THE JOURNEY OF FOUNDERS FROM WORKING IN A E-COMMERCE COMPANY TO ESTABLISHING ONE: BOINGG KIDS FURNITURE.

Dhruvan Barar(Co-founder, Boingg!)

Dhruvan worked for various companies after completing his graduation from IIIT Hyderabad. But, he always had a keen interest to start his own venture so he did his MBA from IIM Kozhikode. He wanted to gain some experience before starting a company. So he joined as a area Sales manager to gain the experience.

Further to extend his experience for a eCommerce company, he joined Quickr. He worked under various wings including Customer Service, Analytics and Product development. His aim was to learn as much as he could before starting his own company. Along with his job, he brainstormed the ideas for the venture.

Neha Indoria, the co-founder, became a mother in early 2015. She realized that there were not many fun options for the kid’s rooms in the market. With more research about the same, she came across various other mothers who felt the same. She had been working in the corporate world for past 10 years. Her career started with HSBC right after MBA from IMI, New Delhi. She was employed in Infosys, when she decided to start a venture with Dhruvan.

Neha Indoria(Co-founder, Boingg!)

In 2015, Dhruvan Co-founded with Neha and Mr. Ritesh Barar, his first venture called ‘Couched’. The idea for the venture was to simplify the buying, selling and renting of furniture. The venture was a business-to-business platform, where furniture was manufactured in-house and sold. Through this start the founder realized that there were a lot of orders for kids section. The idea from the orders were brought from Pinterest and other sites.

With this realization, two of the founders decided to take it s step further and produce exclusively for kids. They also wanted to cover the huge gap in the market and use it as an opportunity to create their own brand. Neha and Dhruvan wanted to build a platform, so that every parent got what they wanted for their kids.

Thus, ‘Boingg’ was started to fulfill the needs and requirements of customer and provide them products which are not even available in India. The original name of the company is ‘DNV Furniture’.

THE INTERESTING STORY BEHIND THE NAME ‘BOINGG’.

Since the products manufactured is for the kids, the founders decided that the name should be something fun and quirky. So, as the kids love to jump on the bed and the sound from the bed is ‘boingg’ due to the springs. Thus, the founders landed on the name ‘Boingg’ which gives a happy vibe and suits the purpose.

STRUGGLES OF STARTING A NEW VENTURE: FOUNDER’S WORD ON THE ENTREPRENEURIAL LIFE.

There is always so much to do, when you start a new company. Boingg was part of parent company ‘Couched’, so the founders had prior experience with managing a company. The early struggles involved in the company was finance and managing people.

All of savings of the founders, which they had earned while working on their jobs, was poured into the company. Managing the operations and working was another major task. Along with finding and hiring the right people for the job, the struggle continued for training them. Each aspect took up a lot time, but could not be ignored due to the importance it hold.

“A boot-start company is always difficult, managing the resources, taking hard calls on the different expenditure heads. Each and every small decision is a challenge. But you do it anyway, because every its all worth the struggle,” says Mr. Dhruvan, while talking about his journey.

The Idea is the easy part, the difficult part is its execution. You have to be all in and you have to work with the single thought of making it successful, and stay committed to it. You have to take that jump and overcome the fear of failure. You get one life and its completely fine to fail, even if you fail, do it gloriously. At last its your life and you should be satisfied with what you are doing.
