Beginnings
Peter started his first business at the age of 19. That first ventureĀ (called Goby) quickly grew into one of the first online bookshops in Australia, becoming tremendously successful for the first 4 years of its life. At its peak, Goby had National warehousing and distribution setup through a 3PL arrangement with Australia Post, had representatives at over 15 University campuses Australia wide, and turned over several hundred thousand dollars of sales every month through its website. For the full story about the rise and fall of Goby, read Peter’s book ‘Realities of Business: Misadventures and Lessons Learnt’.
Adventures in Business
Since that first business venture, Peter has dedicated much of his life to learning everything about business. He has started and managed several different types of businesses over the years, some very successful and profitable, while others have not had much success at all. Some of Peter’s business ventures have included:
Many of Peter’s businesses have required significant digital exposure, including e-commerce business models.
In 2011 Peter published his first book ‘Realities of Business: Misadventures and Lessons Learnt’, which he is currently revisiting for an updated 3rd edition. Peter also has plans to write a comprehensive book on E-Commerce Business.
Passions
Peter is passionate about his family, business (particularly digital business) and adventures. His mantra revolve around a balance with work and life, helping ensure he always has time for his family, regardless of his busy work schedule.
Outside of business, Peter is currently completing an MBA Digital Transformation (almost finished!), and spends a lot of his free time outside, pursuing callisthenics, mountain biking, running, hiking and going on crazy adventures!
