Your Meeting Advocate

When planning an important conference, you deserve a seasoned professional advocating for your best interests. Conferences and Meetings are a significant investment of your company’s resources- monetary, time, and your team’s talent. At Golden Rule Meetings, we maximize your resources by leveraging experience, expertise, and hospitality. How many buffets will feed your particular group without a line? Do we have the correct rooms set aside for the Board of Directors? What’s the plan B for the excursion? Lav or handheld, and how many? These details and more are examples of what we obsess over for our clients.

Client Testimony:

“In late 2021, the Diocesan Fiscal Management Conference initiated a national search for our new corporate event manager and meeting planner. It was an exhaustive process because it was important that the DFMC retain a leader with both the character and the capability to direct the conference event of our 54 year old international professional association. At the end of the search, we hired Raquel Shutt and Golden Rule Meetings and have not regretted it for one second since. Raquel and her firm have exceeded every expectation we stated at the outset of our business relationship. The events that Raquel has managed for us have been the most successful in our organization’s history. Further, Raquel has personally enhanced the culture of our management team with her very high integrity, patience and compassion for others, and extremely high standards in execution. I recommend Golden Rule Meetings without hesitation and welcome a call from anyone who would like to hear more.”
