In addition to the “I can get the job done”, she was warm, friendly and conveyed understanding of the challenges faced by smart creatives like me��and had systems in place help me help myself!

Really good marketing instincts…Only a handful of people I’ve hired do what they say they will do. Jaimie is always at the top of the list for keeping her word.

BEVERLY HARVEY

Jaimie is the best VA I�ve ever had. She is the perfect role model for VAs. When you look up �virtual assistant� in the dictionary, I think you�ll find a picture of Jaimie. Just kidding of course, but she is the best. Jaimie really understands what a business owner needs. I never have to worry about her completing an assignment or project on time and within budget. Jaimie acts with integrity and makes each client feel like her most important client. She is trustworthy and has great customer service skills. Many of my clients comment about her responsiveness and her friendly yet professional style. She has enhanced my company brand.”

AMAZON BOOK

“I have been struggling as a virtual assistant for a long time now and was beginning to get frustrated with it which is why I downloaded this book. This changed everything for me and is now a huge resource for me. The book contains so much knowledgeable information from someone who has been there before. I loved the section that explained how to properly find clients. I’ve already seen such a change ever since I started doing the small things this book explains. It has a huge amount of information but is put together in a way that is easy to read and most importantly understand.”

AMAZON BOOK

“I found this book very helpful and as I consider this type of work for myself. I appreciated the author’s wisdom in explaining that just because you can do the work, doesn’t mean you should. You have to be passionate and enjoy administrative work. That really hit home. Passion breeds success.”

MARCIA DORFMANLEADERSHIP AND LIFE COACH

“Jaimie Skultety might just be�the most organized, responsive and efficient business person I have ever had the pleasure of working with. I engaged Jaimie to help me with social media marketing to enhance my presence online. She did that and more. During our work together, she was�my educator, advisor, and trusted business partner. I have referred a colleague to her and would do so again for anyone looking for expert assistance to streamline and augment their business and business presence.”

LORI TINGLE

Jaimie is a huge asset to my team. Though we�ve never met in person, the support I receive is the same as if Jaimie were sitting in the next office. I�ve always considered myself to be organized, but Jaimie takes organization to a whole other level. She has shared her expertise pertaining to processes and systems, creating an outstanding operations manual, social media plan, and great business development templates. Jaimie takes pride in each project and treats it as though it is the most important part of her work day. She genuinely cares about her clients and the projects that are important to them. She thinks ahead, takes initiative, anticipates issues and asks questions so that nothing falls through the cracks. Additionally, Jaimie never backs down from a challenge. She moves forward with confidence and finds the right pieces to the puzzle. I highly recommend Jaimie. She is top notch!

KAREN CAPPELLO,

I had worked with a few different assistants before I hired Jaimie. What sets Jaimie apart is her attention to detail, initiative and great organization. Jaimie organizes ME. I don’t need to explain much to her for her to get the job done, and she even recommends things to me that make my marketing more effective and my workload less. If you need an assistant who can simply take projects off your plate and do them better than you could do yourself, Jaimie is the person for that. Thanks for making my life so much easier Jaimie!!

AMAZON BOOK

The only VA biz book you’ll need… A valuable book for anyone considering starting a VA business or someone who has already been established in the biz but is floundering or struggling with gaining clients. The book is very thorough and the author is obviously an expert with her own very successful virtual assistant business.”

MARY KWIATKOWSKI

“Before working with Jaimie, I was trying to do everything myself. The real deal is doing that meant things didn’t get done and they just didn’t look professional. They didn’t represent my business brand. Jaimie has helped me brand my coaching and consulting materials in a way that I feel great about presenting them to my clients. My biggest issue before I decided to hire Jaimie was I couldn’t decide where to spend my time therefore I wasn’t doing what I do best. As an executive coach, I try to influence my clients to spend time on what they do best therefore it�s important for me to demonstrate that behavior. Jaimie has been getting my work back to me in a timely fashion and that makes me more efficient in moving forward with my clients. Those of you have been struggling and trying to do everything in your business will be delighted with Jaimie�s work product and efforts to up your game. Everyone needs assistance in their business, and I would highly recommend Jaimie and Upscale Your Business.”

FRAN ASARO

�Jaimie is one of the most articulate people I know. I have been amazed by her work ethics. She has always conveyed a very high level of integrity and professionalism. She relieves me of the projects I resist doing and allows for me to do what I do best – Coaching. I trust her emphatically to be her word and to make me look good. I know first-hand that her business is built with a solid foundation and she is equipped to support the professional who seeks impeccability. She manages to master and thrive in every venture she embarks upon. As I write this I feel I could go on and on regarding what I know about her abilities. However, the very fact that I turn the administrative responsibilities of my business over to her with complete confidence that she will make me look good and do what it takes to get a task done completely, efficiently and with above average results should demonstrate what she means to me and the trust I have in her. As a coach who helps small businesses thrive during any economy, I strongly recommend anyone looking to have the edge over their competitors, have a dynamo like Jaimie on their team to make the profound difference that is needed. I endorse her and her business 100%.�

�Jaimie was my Executive Assistant at SIVA Corporation for over a year and was extremely competent in organizing and managing me during her tenure � not an easy task.

(by the way � she left when she had a baby and decided to spend the crucial first years with her child).�
