You are energized by your interactions with others and view developing relationships as a rich, vibrant, and strategic process. As the natural salesperson, you enjoy the prospect of succeeding in a field so full of resistance.

Your Secondary Style is Go-Getter. Your Go-Getter brings out the passion in you, and it underscores your extroversion. It also indicates that you’ve got some intuitive skills that can challenge Rainmaker/Mission Controllers.

What fellow Rainmakers have to say

"By Asking Matters, we’re understanding ourselves better as a fundraising team. We’re learning that everybody’s Asking Style works – for them. We’re also becoming more purposeful -- and having fun at the same time!"

“My Asking Style is Rainmaker strongest and Mission Controller second. These styles both fit me well and consistently hold true. I like to be very well prepared. I want to have as much information as possible before going into a meeting with a potential donor. That said, if I don’t have much information that is okay too, because I don’t mind asking questions to get to know the donor. I like the investigation component of my job and then meeting the person to learn ‘the rest of the story.’”
