In this super-fun episode of the DevReady Podcast, our hosts Andrew Romeo and Anthony Sapountzis are joined by Rex Kelly, General Manager & Manager of Marketing and Sales at Aerion Technologies. The conversation centres around the parallels that can be drawn between business and the movie in the spotlight for this edition of the Podcast—Ocean’s 11.
Danny Ocean assembled an A-Team in the movie. And there’s so much to learn from the movie if you are a start-up founder or the owner of a business.
Danny Ocean assembled an A-Team in the movie. And there’s so much to learn from the movie if you are a start-up founder or the owner of a business.
Key Takeaways for a business owner/start-up founder:
- Just like Danny Ocean, played by George Clooney, you need to have an idea, in his case, to rob a casino. In your case, your product is the idea or your specific service offering.
- Just like Danny, you can’t do it on your own. He knows he won’t achieve his goal unless he surrounds himself with the right team. The right team isn’t just full of good people but specialists who can execute a specific role in the story. The same applies to business. You need to surround yourself not only with good people but the right people to assist you in reaching your business objectives and goals.

When you begin your start-up journey, you will be every person on this list at different times. As your business grows, you will start to hire people for specific roles; you will begin to work collaboratively to grow and expand the business.
The growth and hiring process doesn’t happen overnight, and sometimes it’s challenging to know when to hire and let go of a specific role. Still, when you do, you will be happy you did as it then frees you up to focus on more specific areas of the business and keep pushing towards your dreams.
At Aerion Technologies, we work with you and embed a strong team in your business so that you don’t have to be the founder/developer/marketer all wrapped into one all the time.
