Who We Are
Bottleneck Distant Assistants has been hiring Distant Assistants (DAs) from the Philippines since 2006. It is because we appreciate the unique Filipino culture that is in line with our core beliefs and integrated into our own company culture.
Our Distant Assistants also share the same love for supporting business growth worldwide.
Our Value Proposition: Supporting our clients to stop doing so many daily tasks so they can do their best work!
There is no better feeling than having one of our clients let us know how much they appreciate the service we provide. Our services not only have an impact on their business but also on getting their personal time back.
The Bottleneck Way
The Bottleneck Way promotes confidence through communication in a positive atmosphere to establish an ‘Intimate-based’ relationship instead of a ‘Transactional-based’ acquaintance. We understand the power of listening. It is extremely important that the people we choose to work with believe in creating a positive culture wherein the fear of speaking up or sharing ideas should never get in the way of creating opportunities for growth and continued education.
We care about your well-being
Much like how we tell our clients to take a break and take care of themselves, we also do the same for our Distant Assistants. We are invested in creating a pleasant and secure working atmosphere so our DAs can focus on doing their best work, but not at the cost of burnout or overwork. On top of permanent work-from-home set-ups, we also provide paid leaves so we have time to focus on our mental health.
