Abstract
Despite not attending a full university level program, John Ilhan took a massive risk when he left his job as a sales associate and took money from his parents to establish his business. He totally relied upon innovation by introducing a disruption in the business of selling mobile phones and came up with offers and marketing strategies that were simply unheard of in those days. In a market with a very high degree of competition, John Ilhan went all out to the extent of using his name and calling himself “Crazy” to attract his customers. In fact, he listened to his customers who were calling him crazy. Such was the extent of customer-centric drive and passion to develop a unique selling proposition. All these traits characterized him as a great entrepreneur. He had the courage and self-belief to dream big and awareness to push himself that extra mile to fulfill his dreams. Along this journey, he was realistic enough to acknowledge his shortcomings and diligently hired people sharing the same passion towards business who helped him complete the value chain. The fact that he knew he and his business had to listen to the customers, employees, the community and all other stakeholders at every stage enabled him to remain ahead of his competition.

Introduction
There is no single definition for entrepreneurship, just like management. Entrepreneurship is a holistic journey undertaken by an entrepreneur to create value, which would be incremental on a periodic basis. The result would be creation of by unearthing investment opportunities, undertaking calculated risks, organizing enterprises and there by contributing to economic growth. (Shane & Venkataraman, 2001). The key characteristics of an entrepreneur are vision, innovation, risk taking ability and organization (Thompson, 2004). Of the many successful entrepreneurs that Australia has produced, John Ilhan is one of the greatest. He migrated to Australia from Turkey at the age of 5 and attended only one year at the university. But he became the richest man in Australia under the age of 40.
Business Proposition
At the age of 15, John Ilhan dreamt of owning his own business, a Porsche and a house. So after a short stint as a sales associate in Strathfield Car Radios, he founded his own company called Crazy John’s in 1991. He was the owner and the Chief Executive Officer. Crazy John deals in mobile phones and services. The company had captured a significant share in the mobile telephone market in Australian. The main objective of the company was to provide quality customer service and economical prices. The business strategy was to offer superior customer value. Crazy John was a re-seller of Telstra products, it used various innovative ways to build a trustworthy and increasing base of customers. He started alone in 1991, then from a very small company it outgrew to a company which could offer an extensive range of mobile phones and related services in Australia. It had over 600 workers and more than 100 stores all over the country.
The two key business values that were the center of Crazy John’s business: 
1) How the business can work in a unique manner?
2) How to improve the business every day?
While achieving these goals, John Ilhan wanted everyone working with him to be practical and grounded so that success did not get into one’s head. The topmost priority of John Ilhan was customers, organization, community and his staffs. He always believed only this way Crazy John’s can continue to grow and prosper. 
Vision
Entrepreneurs should have a creative vision and should also do research about the market to be ready with new ideas whenever required (EL-Annan, 2013). John Ilhan had various experiences before he opened his first store. He had an arts degree and had worked for Ford, where he sold cars. He then worked with a well-known electronics retailer where he was selling telephones. He became one of the best salesmen in the firm and opened a new shop for them. It shortly became the most profitable outlet of the firm in Victoria. He recognized that the customer service offered was very poor as there was almost no competition in the industry.
