Reclaim your time with Jaime Jay, the pioneering mind behind Bottleneck Virtual Assistants, as he shares his journey from U.S. Army paratrooper to entrepreneur extraordinaire, navigating the transition from the rigid structures of corporate America to the creative realm of virtual assistance. We're excited to welcome Jaime Jay back for his third appearance on Rising Tide Startups, and is labelled by our host as the internet's embodiment of kindness. His story is a testament to the transformative power of passion for processes, culminating in the creation of the world's first dedicated Distant Assistant company, reshaping our understanding of work-life balance. Jaime Jay – a man who wears many hats, and wears them all admirably. He's the founder of the renowned Bottleneck Distant Assistant Services firm, and his book "Quit Repeating Yourself" has become a must-read for founders in this space. When he's not busy building his empire, you can find him on his beloved Harley Davidson, cruising through the countryside and taking in the invigorating effects of Uitwaaien – a Dutch practice that involves facing the wind to boost health and relieve stress. Here are the key takeaways from the conversation: Offering a subscription-based service model diverges from traditional contracts while fostering trust and satisfaction with flexible terms that allow clients to leave at any time and potentially receive refunds for unused services. The meticulous vetting process guarantees top-tier service from highly skilled distant assistants, fostering high retention rates by hiring only the top 5% of applicants. Structured workflow management and proper delegation techniques contribute to a 100% client retention rate, showcasing the effectiveness of delegation roadmaps in the virtual assistant industry. Integrating artificial intelligence to enhance its services places significant importance on maintaining a positive and respectful workplace culture.

Your host, Eric Dunavant, talks with the Author, Host of Bottleneck TV, and Owner of Bottleneck Distant Assistants, Jaime Jay. Jamie Jay discussed a topic close to his heart: the importance of nurturing generational abundance within families. He passionately believes that the actions we take within the walls of our homes have a more significant impact than any decision made in the corporate world. Jamie opened up about the hardships he faced, including experiencing homelessness twice during his childhood. These moments, marked by the loss of stability and security have shaped his outlook on life and the importance of family support. His mother's unwavering belief in him during those times was a beacon of hope, a theme that would echo later in his life with the support of his wife, Sarah.To learn more about Jaime's work, click HERE and HERE.Check out Jaime's book, Quit Repeating Yourself, HERE.If you'd like to be a guest on the Kingdom ROI: Return on Intention podcast, click HERE.

It's time again for “FLEX OR FLOP??” And this week's company in the spotlight is… SONIC. Yeah. Sticking with slushies may be stupid (how's that for alliteration?). That's about the only thing I can think of with Sonic – their frozen beverages. Is that a good thing or bad? You tell me. But before we discuss Sonic, let's talk about my learnings from this week's guest episode with Jaime Jay. Jaime runs his business, Bottleneck Distant Assistants, in a fascinating way – he's never met a single member of his oversees team. Everyone is remote. He was doing remote business before it was cool. His team is spread out through Haiti, the Philippines, among other countries. The average age of his staff is 22! And better yet, he has his young staff members run meetings equally important as his more experienced team members. Yes, he has 19-year-olds running meetings. Jaime shares tactics for: Creating psychologically safe teams (SUPER important for Gen Z) Engaging team members in such a way they can be offered HIGHER pay somewhere else, and still choose to stay Helping entrepreneurs embrace the gig economy and leverage Distant Assistants I had a number of learnings from this episode that are applicable to companies of any size. You don't want to miss his wisdom. And if you haven't checked out his episode (or his book https://www.amazon.com/Quit-Repeating-Yourself-Processes-Business/dp/1636767400 (Quit Repeating Yourself)), you'll definitely want to do so. Flex of Flop: SONIC Edition!Sonic confuses me. They're kind of “Floxing” – they aren't doing great with Gen Z but I haven't thrown the towel in on them yet. On paper, they should be a highly attractive brand for nostalgic Gen Z'rs, but they're having trouble finding staff, and they've jumped on the bandwagon of social media too late. Their competitors are outpacing them on all accounts, yet their revenues spiked significantly during COVID due to the drive-in experience. On the episode: I test out features of Sonic's career website! And discover, well, it's trying to be something, but it's in a very rough place. We learn from Sonic's mistake in getting so far BEHIND the competition that they fail to keep up! I show you how to make small career website tweaks to improve your resonance with Gen Z. --- Don't forget to connect with me!

What you're about to hear is an inspiring story of how Jaime designed a legendary business and life with his partner, Sara. Pay special attention to how Covid19 almost destroyed Jaime's business, and how a new category design helped it to come back from the brink and power the company to even greater heights. Jaime Jay in the US Army There is a special place in my heart for our vets, and even more so for those who have become entrepreneurs after serving their duty. So I asked Jaime about his military service. Jaime was part of the elite 82nd Airborne Division, and was trained as a paratrooper. He recalls how intense the training was to be part of such an elite organization, and be battle-ready for when the country needs them. “I was part of the elite 82nd Airborne Division, 2nd 325 Airborne Infantry Regiment and I had a blast. It was is fantastic. I was really proud to be part of that organization. They man, they run a tip top organization. And that was blessed to be be part of the 82nd. That's pretty cool.” - Jaime Jay Jaime Jay on Being Homeless Jaime shares that he has been homeless on two separate times of his life. The first one being related to his younger days, and the latter was after he had left the military. Yet he never let these circumstances weigh him down, and he continued to strive for a better life. He talks about these points in the book as well, not for people to feel bad for him, but to see that despite all of that, you can still persevere and live a good life. “By the way, the reason I tell these stories is not for people to ever feel bad for me or anything like that. But I want people to realize what all of this led to. I'm actually blessed that all this happened because all of this led to a better life where I appreciated so much more. The friendships like the friendship that I have with you, I will forever appreciate this for the rest of my life. I was able to find the woman of my dreams. And I appreciate it on such a different level, just the same way that I appreciate the work that we're doing. So the reason that I tell these stories in here is because I really want people to understand that, hey, it's possible to do whatever it is you're passionate about. So it's kind of motivating, but there's a method to the madness. “ - Jaime Jay Creating a New Category: Distant Assistants One of the things Jaime and I have worked on this past year was when we created a new category that deals with remote assistance. You might say we already have that, and it's called virtual assistants. Though the problem with virtual assistants nowadays is that the category has been inundated with big corporations who deal more with technology rather than the human aspect of it. While there are merits to automated assistance run by AI and such, there is something to be said for having an actual person handling it for you, and that flexible decision-making that can't be achieved by AI yet. “People are using a lot of AI and stuff to manage the calendar to send out emails, automation. That's all fine and dandy, and there are some great use cases for that. I'm not here to argue that, but I also think there's something to be said for having that human,
We hear a lot of talk about courage, grit, and being mission-driven.

As the pandemic shifted so many things to “remote” and “work-from-home”, it has created opportunities for nonprofits (like so many other businesses) to expand their talent pool beyond the neighborhood and around the world. Nonprofits have long been a leader in employee culture and benefits, but how do we translate these ideals into the new paradigm? And how do we keep our teams connected to the mission if we can't meet in person? ** Episode Links and Shownotes: https://npherofactory.com/ep20 ** Jaime Jay has been helping organizations of all types and sizes scale their workforce with remote assistants for over 15 years. Jaime and Boris discuss how you can find and hire your ideal candidates, keep everyone on the same page, and keep them connected to your mission.
Jaime is a serial entrepreneur who currently owns four companies, including SlapShot Studios (www.slapshotstudio.com) and Bottleneck Virtual Assistants (www.bottleneck.online). Jaime shares his compelling story with Derek about growing up in Alaska (and other parts of the country), and how he has personally overcome failure, disappointment, and tragedy to flourish in life and business.

Bottleneck Distant Assistants is a team of remote-based professionals based in the Philippines. Jaime Jay has been working with distant assistants in the Philippines since 2006. When he discovered how well his own team of Filipino assistants worked with him he knew that other business owners could benefit from their services. Bottleneck Distant Assistants help business owners stop doing the wrong thing so they can focus on doing their best work. They do this by delegating those tasks that they don’t love. Bottleneck Distant Assistants can find someone that thrives on doing those things that you avoid doing. Do something like it is the last time you are ever going to do it Even before Jaime is ready to hire someone to complete a task he documents everything he does along the way step by step. Jaime not only takes a video of himself doing the task, but he enhances it with screenshots and written instructions. This has helped him to realize the tasks he enjoys and doesn’t enjoy. His motto is--Do something like it is the last time you are ever going to do it. Listen in to hear an amazing tip he shares to ensure that your team truly understands the task they’ve been given. How can people utilize Bottleneck Distant Assistants? Bottleneck Distant Assistants go above and beyond what a traditional virtual assistant does. Since they are not transactional-based the way that many VAs are, the distant assistants acquire an in-depth knowledge of your business. Another thing that sets Bottleneck Distant Assistants apart from VAs is that they provide their clients a specially crafted workflow guide that is broken down step by step. Listen in to hear how that can benefit your solopreneur business. Jaime has been doing this for such a long time that he has so much to teach us.

This is the final episode of the show! After 128 episodes, I have decided to practice that I preach, and make the tough call on priorities and pressures in my life, which means this show will be setting with the sun today. Whether that's forever or for now is not relevant because "forever" is not happening today. With all the demands on my time, I have been facing my own burnout – something I've had as a central theme in many episodes in this show. To protect and love myself, I've taken an inventory of all the things that I am committed to, where they are in the grand scheme of building toward my goals, whether they've served their purpose, and how I might be able to move forward without them. Though it was a hard decision I've grappled with for several months, ending the show here made a lot of sense. Do a Day is not going anywhere, however, with all the resources at your fingertips, as ever. You can still get the book in paperback, Kindle, Audible, Apple Books, Google Play Books, Nook and more. You can still do the Do a Day Masterclass, or sign up for 1-on-1 coaching with me. And the entire back catalog of episodes of the show will still be available for you to go back, listen to, and grow from. With all the stories and inspiration in the 127 episodes that I've released before this final one, I know there is at least one spark that every person in the world could use to start the flame that lets you Go Out and Do It! Respect for all my past guests: Season 1 I kicked the show off sharing the story of Do a Day. Charlie Gilkey shares about how being smart makes you strong. Evan Ruggiero reminds us through his cancer batter that rising up even when half of your world vanishes is possible. Amy Schuber taught us that you are the inspiration you seek. Ryan Caligiuri shared his mantra that there are no set backs, only set ups for what's next. One of my favorite artists, MC YOGI, talked about how all things grow in darkness Anne Sugar shared her battle with cancer as a way to see how you can trust your body even when it betrays you. Chris Wirth hit on his message of never quitting on living the life you deserve. David Ralph reminded us about the power in our lives if we connect the dots. Claude Silver shared her story (for the first time) of why she is who she is today and how that's showed her the importance of Heart in leadership. Elizabeth McCourt talked about the empowerment we can take from building our own resilience. Josh LaJaunie shared his story of overcoming extreme obesity--not just for himself, but for the world around him. Michael Nulty talked about his multiple suicide attempts and how he found rebirth out of depression. Mark Metry shared the importance of taking responsibility for your life and what you can achieve as a new person. My good friend, Aaron Keith Hawkins, talked about how we need to have influence over ourselves if we want to influence anyone else. Kelsey Abbott helped us Find Our Awesome through self-confidence and curiosity. She also gave me a quote I've used almost daily, "What you I say is about me. What you hear is about you." Dorie Clark reminds us of the important of perseverance and consistency if we want to achieve our greatest goals. Sonya Looney, world female mountain bike endurance champion, was just awesome, but had a key message around vulnerability and honesty with ourselves. She also gave me another gem of an idea around being stuck. Rather than being negative about the feeling, she recognizes it's a sign of something big being about to happen. Tim Fargo talked about the humility and balance we can find in unexpected places like failure. The amazing Dr. Jason Brooks shared the importance of being dedicated to finding your purpose and its transformative power on our lives. Jen Arnold shared her story around food and her weight and how that inspired her to change how we look at wellness and knowing ourselves. Lee Havern shared how he overcome depression and recognized the interconnectedness between mental and physical wellness. Emmitt Muckles left us charged up and recognizing that prosperity has nothing to do with money. Terri Levine, who lives in extreme, debilitating pain, showed how you can still find power and heart and use that to create something. Leigh Martinuzzi talked about finding his hidden Why and what that can unlock. The great Dick Vitale shared a power packed message of inspiration and making the choice to get up and move forward no matter what hits you, as he's done throughout his life. Season 2 Steve Gordon showed how falling down may be necessary to reach new heights Robb Holman talked about the power of letting go so we can find meaning and purpose Lindsey Heiserman inspired us to not let our past stories be part of our right now Charise Colbert shared her journey coming out of domestic abuse Sara Quiriconi talked to us about how to live free of all the cancers in our life Syd Finkelstein on how to be a Super Boss leader Ariana Robinson Danquah shared how to rise up when you're stuck in the middle Jon DeWaal gripped us with his story of falling off a roof and how that helped him see how to get through life's toughest transitions John Zeratsky talked about what he discovered to achieve the most, and it has nothing to do with productivity Josh Perry taught the power of gratitude even in the face of life's greatest challenges if you want to come through them thriving Mark Crandall shared his trauma story to help us see how facing our trauma's allows for growth Adam Schaeuble got us all fired up, and he also inspired with his approach to reimagining your life – and making it come true Sandy Vo talked about her journey to find clarity and peace despite a foundation of turmoil Cornell Thomas is the epitome of the "What's Next?" attitude winning over the "Why Me?" mentality Sandra Younger taught us her Come Back approach to be a victor, not a victim of tragedy Jenn Swanson talked about her journey off loss, gratitude and realization that you are your best investment Howard Jacobson shared how losing his father inspired his mission to fight diseases of ignorance with the wisdom of lifestyle Brooke Siem retold her amazing journey navigating her way out of a life of medication for mental illness into a life of discovery Tanur Badgley showed how to become a person of purpose through his journey starting with a fall off the side of a mountain Gary Bertwistle talked about the power of authenticity and discovering your mojo Frank King went into how thoughts of suicide taught him to go after what he really wanted, and why so many people need support as they face moments that lead them to these thoughts Mary Shores talked about the power of serving others as she went from dented to thriving Nick Elvery shared his journey from addiction to peak performance and what sparked the change Jaime Jay got vulnerable as he retold his story of multiple experiences with homelessness to being in a place of gratitude and contentment Dai Manuel talked about the importance of living as you need to, from your own perspective Blaire Palmer showed how the greatest thing we can bet on is ourselves Season 3 Dov Baron forced us to look at what's really going on, magnifying it, and then using that insight to truly grow Episode 056.

Without Jaime Jay (and Sara Parrish), The Storytellers Network would not exist. From Jaime and Sara's Podcast Pilot and Castrly, to Jaime's guidance and encouragement, to his show Stop Riding the Pine, this little show would still be just a dream. Jaime Jay is an amateur hockey player and a "starter geek" who founded Slapshot Studio back in 2013, combining the business of building websites with his love of hockey. Jaime also runs Bottleneck Virtual Assistants, helping businesses find virtual VAs to help their business. And if that wasn't enough, Jaime is a generous soul who loves to help those around him, making the world a better place. As an entrepreneur and podcast host, Jaime says storytelling is huge in his world. Rising above the noise? He has a tip...I think personalization is everything. That's how you rise above the noise. If you're trying to do everything for everybody, and you're just saying, 'It's for everybody. Everybody can use it,' well, I think you're missing the boat there. The more specific you get, the better off it is, the easier you'll find it is to convey your story to others - Jaime Jay

Jaime Jay from SlapShotStudio.com is a podcaster, entreprenuer, and serious hockey fan. Jaime brings his passion and expertise into the Gal Pal Universe where hockey hasn't been talked about too much. It's not that I don't appreciate hockey, but Jaime has it in his blood - and he's managed to continue to play as an adult - and it's led to him meeting his girlfriend and he brings that passion into his own business.
