Right People, Right Seats,
Right Now With WorkBetterNow
“Integrating WBN talent into our framework has been a game-changer. We adopted the EOS (Entrepreneurial Operating System) in 2022, around the same time we began working with WBN. This timing was serendipitous, as WBN has helped us find the right people for the right seats.”
Dimitri Mortsakis
CEO at CRS-Corporate Relocation Systems Inc.
“Not only did my WBN professionals learn the EOS system quickly, but they’ve helped me step out of the day-to-day tasks so I can focus on strategy. They’re really the backbone of my business.”
Andrew Schenkel
Founder and CEO of Double Play Marketing and Sales, Running on EOS®
“As an implementer, I use WBN. I also refer my clients to WBN because they run on EOS and have a great track record.
I trust them as my “easy button” in helping my clients find the right people in a virtual setting.
With my assistant, Noleen, handling day-to-day activities and streamlining processes, I’ve regained 40 hours per month in my schedule.”

The Opportunity: Overwhelming Operational Tasks
EOS Certified Implementer® Eliot Wajskol faced a significant challenge common among many business leaders. Despite employing theEntrepreneurial Operating System (EOS)—the company’s signature set of tools and concepts designed to clarify, simplify, and achieve business vision used by over 257,000 businesses worldwide—he found himself overwhelmed with daily operational tasks that were far from the best use of his strategic abilities; draining his energy and preventing him from focusing on the core activities that could drive EOS forward effectively.
Eliot’s role as an EOS Certified Implementer® revolves around guiding businesses to follow EOS principles, including the crucial concept of ‘delegate and elevate.’ Recognizing a significant mismatch between how he was spending his time versus how he wanted to spend it, Eliot realized he needed to practice what he preached. His goal was to devote over 80% of his working hours to activities that leveraged his unique strengths. However, a critical assessment revealed that only 16% of his time was spent on such high-value tasks. This discrepancy highlighted the need for Eliot to apply the same principles he advocated to his clients, sparking his search for a solution that would allow him to delegate operational tasks and focus on what he truly excelled at and enjoyed.
Solution: Delegate and Elevate with WBN
Eliot turned to WorkBetterNow with the hope of finding a virtual assistant who could take over the repetitive yet essential tasks of his business. The process began with a thorough interview led by WBN, involving Eliot and encouraging his feedback.
“The person coordinating the interviews was very attentive during the process, recognizing that we were asking for some things that we didn’t realize we were asking for. I think WorkBetterNow did a great job of listening between the lines of what we’re looking for and finding folks who had those skills, those backgrounds, that experience.” – Eliot Wajskol, EOS Certified Implementer®
The partnership with WBN brought Eliot the perfect match in Nolene, who quickly transitioned from a virtual assistant to what Eliot now considers his practice manager. Nolene took charge of implementing and managing systems that greatly enhanced operational efficiency, from managing Eliot’s calendar to ensuring no client work fell through the cracks. Their regular Level 10 Meetings™ and daily check-ins facilitated a smooth workflow and continuous improvement of processes.
Nolene’s adaptability and eagerness to learn, coupled with her implementation of best practices, allowed her to excel rapidly. She mastered various tools and systems, including Asana for task management and QuickBooks for financial tracking, which significantly offloaded work from Eliot’s plate.
“We were looking for something pretty specific, someone who could both help us execute [and] put in place the process and systems that we needed to have. And I’ll tell you the question that we asked as we were interviewing was, have you ever been the boss of your boss? Because that’s what we’re looking for, and we found that through you.” – Eliot Wajskol | EOS Certified Implementer®
Results: Freeing Up Over 40 Hours Each Month
With the support from his WBN virtual assistant, Eliot was able to delegate the time-consuming tasks of systematization, bookkeeping, and email management effectively. This partnership not only optimized the business processes but also significantly lightened his workload, allowing him to focus on his areas of strength and interest. The results were inspiring:
Feeling “very fortunate,” Eliot reflects positively on his decision to partner with WorkBetterNow. His successful ongoing relationship with his virtual assistant—still the same one he started with—stands as a testament to the effectiveness and reliability of WBN’s service.
“Anyone who’s looking at their world and they’re saying, I’m doing something that I shouldn’t quite be doing, it’s creating drag. And there are other people in the world who might be able to do this a little bit better than I can. And if only I can get this off my plate, it would free me up to do the work I really need to do. There’s an ROI on it.”

This case study exemplifies how identifying and addressing the disconnect between daily activities and core competencies can dramatically transform a business leader’s impact and satisfaction. WorkBetterNow’s role in this transformation highlights the value of strategic outsourcing in achieving more efficient and focused business operations.
As an EOS Certified Implementer®, Eliot not only uses WBN for his practice but also recommends WBN to his clients. “I use WBN. I also refer my clients to WBN because they run on EOS and have a great track record. I trust them as my ‘easy button’ in helping my clients find the right people in a virtual setting.” As a result, his clients are now also leveraging WBN to find the right people, ensuring they can focus on their core competencies and drive their businesses forward.
