UFC-Backed Brand Avoids Downtime with Seamless EA Transition

Business: DTC Sportswear Brand (UFC-Partnered)

Role Hired:

Executive Assistant with Amazon Ops Experience

Result:

Zero-ramp replacement secured, founder maintained momentum

The Problem:

The founder of a fast-moving sportswear brand — partnered with the UFC — was about to lose a key operator.
Their Executive Assistant was transitioning out to start his own venture, leaving a gap in ops, scheduling, and Amazon backend support.
Given the brand’s pace and complexity, they couldn’t afford downtime, bottlenecks, or a rookie learning curve.

The Strategy:

Zabota sourced a high-caliber Executive Assistant with direct experience in Amazon operations. This hire was fluent in backend workflows: listings, logistics, seller support, and daily coordination. They were onboarded fast and integrated into existing SOPs with almost no founder involvement.

The handoff was seamless. The new EA stepped in, kept operations running tight, and freed the founder to focus on growth, product, and strategic partnerships. No delays. No execution drop. Just a clean transition with zero momentum loss.
