Our approach is born
from experience.

How We Work

Our values guide how we approach each day, each task and each client.

Focusing on these values builds trust, inspires big ideas, and results in the superior outcomes our clients expect and deserve.

Empathy

we listen, understand, and make your challenges our own

Enthusiasm

we bring genuine energy to your project, not just to get it done, but to make it great

Quality

we don’t settle for good when great is the goal

teamwork

we work collaboratively with each other and with each client so that all can contribute their insights to the most powerful solution possible

Clients have called it
the “RIVE Experience.”
We like that.

Yeah, but what does that mean?

We’ve found that the best way to develop affecting experiences and compelling content is by using an iterative creative approach. This way ideas are tested and improved as we shape the work in progress.

By bringing together the perfect combination of proven producers and creative specialists, we inspire the magic your experience demands.

We also think the key to successful client relationships is our ability to have hard conversations well. Our work can be deeply subjective, timelines can be tight, and there is always, always a lot on the line. This means there’s a premium on being forthright, transparent and collaborative. It’s hard to do well but it’s part of the RIVE experience, which as you can see, our clients appreciate.

“Thanks to your energy, commitment to perfection, total professionalism, and solutions-oriented approach to any and every curve ball we threw your way (and there were many)…we put on a fabulous show! I’ve received texts and emails complementing our collective success. We COULD NOT have done this without each one of you. On behalf of the Hilton Comms team, we simply wanted to share our deep gratitude for you and for this partnership we’ve formed.”

“Wow! We learned so much from your team! So thankful for the talent we had to make our vision come to fruition. The response from Dealers is exactly what we were hoping for, “engaged,” “awesome,” learned a lot,” and informative.””

“To the entire RIVE team, thank you. As you know, events are an important part of the strategic value we deliver to our members. I literally can’t imagine pulling this off without you. At the end of the day it’s about trust. I know this isn’t news to you, but I’m grateful to work with RIVE. I trust your judgment, and I know you’re going to deliver.  I truly appreciate that partnership.”
