Generating Scalable Growth Through People, Planning, and Process | Daniel Paulson
For this episode of Live with Bottleneck, Daniel Paulson joins us to discuss how people, planning, and processes can contribute to a company’s growth. He is the CEO of Invision Business Development and has been in the industry for 15 years. He shares tips for business growth and hopefully, you will find nuggets of wisdom for your own enterprise.
Find the Right People
Daniel shares that he started his business to help other entrepreneurs advance to the next level. He says that combining good systems with the right people, culture, and environment leads to further business growth. He adds that it is in this aspect that his company is able to assist business owners.
“Systems and processes work great if you don’t have the people doing the right things or they’re not following those procedures. That becomes a huge issue. Also, those people that do the work every day often know the things that need to be fixed. They just need to be empowered to do it and that’s where I really work.” – Daniel Paulson
Realize and Face Your Problem
Daniel says that most of the business owners have established their businesses all on their own. He shares that owners often lose their work-life balance which results in burn out and loss of passion. He adds that when these owners can no longer handle things, the work quality diminishes. Daniel emphasizes that it is important for entrepreneurs to also check on themselves.
“Technology allows us to do that. The people we have around us allow us to do that. But first, we have to realize that we are the center of that problem. Until we break down or understand that we need to make those changes, it’s going to be very hard to make that happen.” – Daniel Paulson
Creating Sustainable Processes
Daniel discusses that systems and processes are the lifeblood of any business. He says that they provide consistency in customer experience and create longevity in the business. He adds that the outline of the process can initially be basic and may be improved by the first – hire employees.
“When we’re in more of a relaxed intellectual state, we can start questioning things and working through dialogue and figuring out how to improve. That’s what we have to look at whenever it comes down to how you lay out the process and what are some tools you can use.” – David Paulson

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.

Their team has played a vital role in helping us staff our customer support and ensuring our customers were satisfied with our services. Their Distant Assistants were extremely helpful in answering inquiries promptly, handling complaints, and providing solutions to our customers' needs.

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.

GM Simon2022-09-08Working with Bottleneck is not just having one or two assistants working alongside you. You have the support of the whole team behind them as well.
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!
