The Forbes 30 Under 30 Europe honoree from 2021 founded the business when he was just 19 and has ever since been taking the cycling community by storm.

Live shopping
Oscar has found a powerful strategy to boost traffic and sales for his online stores: live-shopping events. These captivating virtual experiences engage his audience and create excitement around his products.
To ensure success, Oscar follows a step-by-step approach. He carefully selects the products for the event, creates a Facebook live-shopping event with exclusive offers, and promotes it beforehand to generate interest. He invites potential customers and runs targeted ads for wider reach.
During the live-shopping event, Oscar emphasizes limited product quantities to create urgency. This compels shoppers to act quickly and secure their desired items. He also hires a professional video agency to showcase products beautifully and provide all the necessary details and special discounts, ensuring a delightful shopping experience.
