Sales Simon Roche

Hi, my name is Simon Roche, Founder of "Finicky.us" and also the author to many entrepreneurial and self-help books. I have seen that I was different since I was a kid. When other kids wanted to play, I wanted to be productive and better myself. Not to say that I didn't play on my free time, I just didn't play longer than I needed. I always set my expectations out of my reach and I truly hope that my readers do the same. I have visited many companies during my career and I can say that I have learned more than if I were to have worked for a company. As a thank you for considering my book, I will provide you with one of my many experiences while visiting a friend at Google. My friend who was previously the "Strategic Partner Lead" at Google has had many accomplish through his career and no longer works at Google. We became friends in our marketing course and have still kept in contact. He gave me a tip about the process of hiring people for my company. During the selection process, he weaves out many strong candidates. Why? Simply because they aren't smarter than me, the interviewer. He explains that if you want a good company, then you surround yourself with average brains that just want to get by. At Google, we don't want average, we want the smartest. Smart people hire smarter people and that's how Google is still on top of its industry. He stated, "I want to hire someone who is smarter than me, works better than me, and is more innovative than me. That way I will be happy when they take my position, as I move on to another chapter in my life" Through my books, I will share many of my unique experiences and will provide you with mistakes that I have made myself as an entrepreneur.
