Joseph Chou
Joseph Chou was born in Beijing, China, in 1962. After obtaining his BA at the prestigious Peking University he went on to study in the US for one year. Upon returning to China he became a diplomat. Not satisfied with his seemingly glamorous career, Joseph and his wife immigrated to Australia in 1991 with just $4,000 in their pockets.
Joseph Chou’s first job was delivering pizzas for $7 an hour, but he quickly set up his own business. By 1998 he had owned several businesses, constantly searching forbetter vehicles to help him realise his aspirations. Unable to reach his income goal of $1 million a year on his own, Joseph joined a property marketing company as a marketing manager. Within three years, he helped that company increase its sales by more than 300 per cent, and in the process he became one of the highest paid marketing executives in Australia.
In August 2002, Joseph founded the Sydney arm of a property group. As CEO, Joseph worked closely with his two partners and many talented people, and led the group to achieve close to $1.5 billion in sales within a few short years.
Today, Joseph Chou is the CEO of Ironfish (the new name of the company he founded in 2002), an integrated property marketing and finance company. He is an astute and avid investor with a very large property portfolio and one of the few wealth educators who ‘walks the talk’.

He has been featured many times in the press in Australia, New Zealand and China.
