Unconventional Entrepreneur

I share tools to live an uncommon life. As a builder and Unconventional Entrepreneur, I’ve spent the last 25 years testing what works and cutting what doesn’t. This newsletter is where I share the real strategies, systems, and revenue streams that have created my uncommon life. If you’re building something of your own, you’re in the right place.

If you’re new here, I’m the auction guy you probably saw on Insta, YouTube or X. You may have downloaded my Auction Starter Guide with the lists of all the auction sites and tips on getting started.

Thanks for being here Reader. Let's get right into it.


Everything you do can be exponential.

In the beginning, it won’t seem like it, while you grind away at learning and building slowly.

The key is to keep going.

If you take my advice, you start by finding things around your house that you can resell. Something from your garage, basement, or attic.

It doesn’t matter what it is; what matters is getting started.

  • Taking photos
  • Listing items for sale on marketplaces
  • Answering questions
  • Making the sale

Then, you’re ready to start bidding on auctions.

It may take you weeks or months before you win your first auction. You’ll be nervous, doubtful, and excited at the same time.

The key is to keep going.

Once you have some products to sell, maybe on Facebook Marketplace or eBay, you’ll struggle as you learn about listings, photos, building a Credibility Funnel, and customer service.

The key is to keep going.

You’ll start making some sales, but it can still be slow. Your friends, family, and even you may ask, “What are you doing?”

The key is to keep going.

You’ll learn systems and tools to save time. You will still have doubts, and you’ll wonder where this is going. Your friends are out golfing or sitting around while you fill your garage with inventory.

The key is to keep going.

Something magical begins to happen. Your spreadsheet starts looking better. You're making profits – not on everything, but enough. You are conjuring profit by making sure your brain doesn’t fall back into old habits.

You kept going.

You buy more. You work your way up to larger deals. You focus on specific categories, and you begin to build an Evergreen Revenue Stream that can have a multi-generational impact on you and your family.

The exponential curve always looks flat at first, but if you keep going, it takes off like a rocket.

I paid people to wait in line when the first iPhone was released in 2007. We didn’t want the phones; we wanted the parts.

Over the next 5 years, I bought and sold thousands of iPhone parts to buyers worldwide.

Then I got a call for a deal that turned into 94,356 iPhones. It took 5 years, but the exponential curve caught up to me.

I’ve learned that if I lean into taking daily action, if I keep going, I will eventually find the exponential leverage for fast growth.

The key is to keep going.

From 2008 to 2024, I had 35 followers on X/Twitter. In January of 2024, I started learning about the power of building a following and connecting with others online.

That month, I gained 506 new followers, and I was motivated to keep going.

After two years of daily posts, I now have 53,328 followers, and it’s led you to be here today.

Because I kept going.

That’s what happens when you find your lever and keep pulling it daily, consistently, without stopping just because the early days look flat.

It’s also what’s happening in our Mastermind. We started in April 2025 with 200 members. Seven months later, we were at 1,791, and today we have 3,249.

Every day, people are using this community to build, learn, resell, and scale what they’re doing faster than they could alone.

Helping one another to keep going.

They are using the Reseller Mastermind as a lever to find what can be exponential for their lives.

If you don’t know what your lever is yet, you’re not behind; you need a place to test, learn, and grow.

We’ll help you find your lever, build momentum, and start pulling it until the curve turns exponential.

Because exponential growth doesn’t happen by accident.

It happens by design and by daily action.

Cheers to your inevitable success!
