Gold from Belle Maison Agency helped me find an Executive Business Assistant. I had very specific qualifications and needs for this person which are not the norm. Gold worked through hundreds of resumes and found… 3 great candidates that fit our needs. I cannot thank Gold enough for finding the one best fit for our firm. It has changed my life and I am very thankful. Gold really listened and understood what I needed & helped me find the perfect fit.

Gold is amazing. Her attention to detail and out of the box thinking is next level. She’s reliable and she’s always a phone call away when you need her.

I’m thankful to have Gold in my corner and hold her in the highest regards. Read more “Richard Williams”

Gold and RCG have been great since Day One! Now, three moves later, we are even happier with the partnership. Their professionalism is unmatched. They have managed three moves for me each time I signed… with a new NBA team. handling everything from working with real estate agents, movers, organizers, property managers and my business manager so I could just focus on playing (I didn’t even need to be present for any of the moves as RCG was there). I feel really confident with them so I can just do my job without any worries” Read more “Jose Calderon”

I was referred to Riveter Consulting Group to hire my executive director for my charity, (MVP) Merging Vets Players and it’s honestly the greatest hire I’ve ever made in my life. He has taken my… charity from being in one city to now launching it coast to coast and has has been an absolute Marvel. Without Riveter I never would’ve never met Jacob Toups.

I recently moved my daughter to LA from out of the area and was in need of a house cleaning person to start as soon as possible. I reached out to my daughter’s business manager… and she got right back to me with Gold’s contact information letting me know that Gold could help me with any of our staffing needs. Gold responded to my request so quickly and immediately sent me multiple vetted options. The process was quick and smooth and within a very short period of time we had a wonderful and reliable house keeper that we are so happy with. It is such a relief to know that my daughter and her home are in such good hands. Before we knew it, it was time for my daughter to move into a new property and again I reached out to Gold to help me coordinate a full service moving company. Gold quickly had me connected to an amazing company that handled everything for us. I can’t say enough how happy we are with how smoothly and professionally the move went. The moving staff were wonderful, kind and so careful with all her belongings. I’m so grateful to Gold for all that she has done to make these seemingly insurmountable tasks so seamless and easy! I won’t hesitate to reach out to her again and again. Read more “Sophia”
Kobina Commeh
Unparalleled customer service should be the staple and mission of every reputable company. Gold is an exemplary representation of excellence in this field. We used her service to find a nanny for our toddlers. In… retrospect, we picked the wrong nanny for our needs and did not have a good experience; to the detriment of our kids. This was no fault of Gold’s. Her calming reassurance has been great through this frustrating process. We needed a break from the search and she was amenable to this. At no additional cost, she provided access to a babysitter as well. She also offered her services for next year when we need a summer nanny. Wow! She mentioned, on first contact, that she would not “go away” until the we found the perfect candidate. That’s just out of this world patience and dedication a year after the initial contract. Amazing. Gold is very understanding, personable and easily accessible. We highly recommend the Belle Maison Agency and the Riveter Consulting Group. Gold sets the standard for running an excellent company with outstanding values. Read more “Kobina Commeh”

Arielle Goldrath-Kevin Mckidd
Worth EVERY penny! I can’t begin to explain the quality of help and people that Gold has brought into our lives. Seeing us through moving house 4x, welcoming in 2 new children, marriage and essentially… just life planning- Gold has provided an unbelievable level of service and help for my family and I. I truly don’t know what I would do without the help she has found us, not to mention the amount of time and sanity she’s saved us on so many levels. So very deeply grateful.

Joshua Roberts
“Five stars truly is not enough for this absolute STELLAR team. I moved to Los Angeles in January (I know… just in time for the apocalypse) and had a few leads on open positions in… the area, but nothing set in stone.
Gold and Jeslie were great about sending me positions they had available and gauging my interest, but they were also VERY up front regarding their thoughts on whether they felt something was the right fit. They weren’t interested in simply placing me with an employer, but rather that whoever I was placed with would be the best fit. Once the pandemic took over, as I’m sure everyone experienced, the job market all but dissipated into thin air. But Gold and Jeslie still worked tirelessly to find me my dream job and they delivered better than I could have EVER anticipated.
I am currently the personal assistant and estate manager to one of the most inspiring, gracious, and good-hearted women I have ever had the pleasure of working with. Riveter Consulting Group didn’t just find me a job, they found me my dream job. They were sure to place me with someone that was the right fit on both a professional and personal level, not just someone from whom I would collect a paycheck. Thank you, thank you, thank you again, Gold and Jeslie! I wouldn’t be where I am without you.” – Joshua Roberts | Personal Assistant and Estate Manager

My home and closet looks like something out of a magazine and I used to think who are the people who have time to do that ..
