The Chairman and CEO of Liquid Investments, Ron Fowler, presented information on how to be a successful entrepreneur to a nearly full-to-capacity audience on November 12, 2008. Liquid Investments is the parent company of beverage distributors throughout California and Colorado and has annual sales in excess of $285 million.
The presentation was part of the L. Robert Payne Lecture Series that provides a forum for accomplished entrepreneurs to share the secrets of their success with SDSU entrepreneurship students and faculty, as well as to the public.
Fowler shared his 10 tips for entrepreneurial success and talked about how he became an entrepreneur by “eliminating the things he didn’t want to do” until he settled on a career in beverage distribution.
As the presentation concluded, Dr. Sanford Ehrlich presented Fowler, an avid sports fan, with an autographed portrait of Chargers’ running back, LaDainian Tomlinson.
