In 1989, the company was successfully sold to Ron Perlman of Revlon Corporation. Part of the company culture that Stacey has established is the need for all employees to understand the company culture of the client. Judgment, discretion and personal courtesy are as important as organizational and administrative competence. All employees have been trained to appreciate that when the client chooses to work with Miracle Assistant, the Company assumes the responsibility of personally representing the client in the most professional manner, at all times. Stacey has expanded Miracle Assistant’s capabilities to include a wide variety of day-to-day services for small and large corporations.
