Fight the Good Fight | A Week in Review with Jaime and Sara
Is your company fighting the good fight? In the first place, what does it mean to fight the good fight?
In today’s A Week In Review with Jaime and Sara, we dive into how to Fight the Good Fight. Together, they share their personal and professional challenges, updates, and the exciting things to come in Bottleneck Distant Assistants.
Fighting the Good Fight
Jaime and Sara start the discussion by defining their interpretation of fighting the good fight. Jaime defines it as doing everything with intention and integrity. Sara agrees and add that you should be authentic, not just with your clients but also with your team.
Being who they are all the time lets Jaime and Sara have fun on all aspects of their work.
“What that means is to do everything with intention, be authentic, have integrity and run your business and your life honestly, you know? Don’t be trying to cut corners, don’t try to use anybody. Just fight the good fight. Be one of those people in the Good Fight Army.” – Jaime Jay
Being Selfish is Not Always a Bad Thing
Sara talks about the challenges when a client has so many demands, that it becomes detrimental to the business. So as much as it pains them to do it, they had to put their interests first. Jaime explains that it is not a bad thing to be selfish if your intentions are good. At the end of the day, you have to take care of the company first before you take care of others.
“Take care of yourself first, so that you can take care of others. It’s the same in business: take care of the business first so you can take care of others and get people on board with you to fight that good fight.” – Jaime Jay
Workflows: A Living, Breathing Aspects of the Business
For Jaime and Sara, workflows have become a great way to streamline the work for the company. Not only does it improve performance by having a standard to follow for those concerned, it also empowers employees to have the capacity to handle tasks on their own with minimal supervision. This has also let new employees hit the ground running faster than those without a proper workflow, systems, and processes in place.
“We call our systems and processes living, breathing aspects of our business because we’re constantly updating. We started doing processes a couple years ago, and we have not stopped. It’s part of our job, and it’s an ongoing process.
The beauty of it is as we grow, and we are growing right now, someone else that comes in to take over a position knows exactly what their what their job duty is exactly like.” – Jaime Jay

About Jaime Jay
Meet Jaime Jay – a man who wears many hats, and wears them all admirably. He's a master connector, an entrepreneur extraordinaire, and a published author who knows how to get things done.
Before he found his way to the business world, Jaime served his country as a brave paratrooper in the U.S. Army. But that's just the beginning of his many accomplishments.
He's the founder of the renowned Bottleneck Distant Assistant Services firm, and his book "Quit Repeating Yourself" has become a must-read for entrepreneurs everywhere.
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.
He enjoys spending his free time outside building stuff with his wife, Nikita the dog and their two kittens (for now at least) Tommy and Tater.
He is ‘over-the-moon’ happily married to his wonderful wife Sara, his amazing daughter, Jessica, who is serving our country as a United States Army soldier. Jaime and Sara are the proud grand parents of two beautiful little girls.

Jeff Peñaflor2022-09-14I started last March 24, 2021 as a Dedicated Distant Assistant and it was an awesome experience. In this new journey, as Security Administrator of Bottleneck Distant Assistants, I have been supported by the team, A LOT !!!! All help that I need, the whole team is there to support me. I know that there are a lot of room for improvements with my skills and what I know, but because of BNDA, I became equipped with all the weapons I need to conquer the daily challenges especially with my tasks. With BNDA, they will not just help you to aim high, but soar the skies!
Tinoe D2022-09-09I don't remember the last time I loved what I was doing until Bottleneck came into the picture. I love working for bottleneck, they are professional. The management makes the workplace fun and they're very flexible. I definetly recommend that you make that important switch and be part of something big today by joining BNDA.

Ma. Edeliza Silot2022-09-07Aside from the knowledge gained, the trainers are highly commendable.
Sara Knox2022-09-07What an awesome business! Finally, a way to hire the RIGHT person for my administrative tasks and they are remote! No office space to consider, W2's, 1099's or payroll. Jaime and his team of remote workers are top-notch! I hired my first assistant in May. I recently suffered a motorcycle accident and it left me unable to work for 2 weeks. But my assistant stepped right in to guide our CEO on all matters financial. It’s so nice to have that stress eliminated from my life!
