Making Your First Million Chapter 4 - How Do I Become an Entrepreneur My buddy Adrian's an entrepreneur. When I first met him he was importing cheap and cheerful Chinese junk: roller blades, fake watches, computer clones etc. His approach was novel. He would find out what was available and what people wanted to buy, presell, then import a container-load. He told me he only had eleven major customers. He worked from his garage, which I remember had that distinctive Taiwan smell of mouldering cardboard and towers of boxes containing extras of whatever his customers had ordered surrounded his desk. Adrian had a real nose for selling. He was not in any particular industry, not bound by preconceived ideas of expanding into similar product lines. He simply focused on what was available cheaply that he could sell for a profit, rang around his retailer mates to see if they were interested, then placed an order and a month later flogged it off. Everything was fair game. He found out what people wanted, imported it, sold it off and squirreled the profits into real estate. When I first met him he was living in a small flat in Oakburn South and a month or two later had bought a house in Toorak. Three years later he had six houses and a thousand acre farm. And all the while he drove a battered old Toyota. Adrian had all the qualities of a squirrel. Quick, nervous, a high-flying risk-taker but dash back to the safety of the knot hole as soon as you've got your prize. He had no desire to build a big, respectable company that one day he could sell. His only business asset (which was his real wealth) was the knowledge he had in his head. I met him at Taipei airport on one occasion. He shared with me the purpose of his trip. He'd just come from Andamooka and Lightning Ridge with a pocketful of opal which he'd sold and was on his way to Los Angeles to buy a large downtown office building before making it back to Toorak for breakfast the day after tomorrow. I don't think Adrian got past 3rd year high school. He certainly had no time for MBA's or business experts. He was simply too busy having a ball, making money. He started out while he was still at school scavenging lost golf balls, repainting and reselling them. As an inquisitive lad he wondered where golf balls came from and asked his Dad who told him he was too busy and to go ask his Mum. She looked embarrassed and told him they came from the Good Witch of the East. This was his turning point. Golf balls had to have some rational explanation. They had to come from somewhere. And he set about locating their source, breaking into the cartel, and gray-market importing. SiteSelling.com 19
