About Us
When 40+ Goldman Sachs teams needed to make a change, they didn't just call a recruiter.
They called Eric Gershman.
Eric Gershman is the industry's preeminent compensation and relocation specialist. As President of Consultants Period LTD, a family-owned firm founded by Wall Street legend Norman Gershman. Eric has spent 31 years earning the trust of some of the most sophisticated financial professionals in the world.
Our Firm's expertise lies in helping elite Advisors evaluate major Wall Street platforms, negotiate the deals they deserve, and make moves that define their careers. Today, that very same specialization is opening doors to something new. Consultants Period LTD now connects brokers with the industry leaders best positioned to convert their practice into a capital gains event.
Eric W. Gershman
President and CEO
Eric always knew he wanted to be his own boss. When he was fired from his first job as a waiter, he took it as a sign to forge his own path. He's never looked back.
Eric founded and sold a successful publishing firm before acquiring Consultants Period in 1999. For over 31 years, he has built a reputation as a true Financial Architect, structuring landmark deals for Wall Street's top Firms and Advisors, including moving more than 40 Goldman Sachs teams.
Eric resides in Burlington, VT with his wife. When he isn't reading the Wall Street Journal, Eric enjoys writing fiction, yoga, and playing music.
