Quiz Outcomes

1.
You're A Nurturer!
Image Source
For nurturers, their core need is emotional safety, provided for both them and others.Nurturers emphasize checking in and tending to emotions, seeing the nuance and necessity of fully holding space for everyone they care about. They are relationship-driven in the most authentic of ways. They enjoy the company of others and the role of the listener is very important to them.Thus, they’re excellent at creating that space for others, but struggle to maintain boundaries and say no for their own sake. This can lead to overgiving and burnout. They're low risk-takers and slow decision-makers who usually need more time to decide if something is a safe decision or investment. Even though emotion is what drives them, they can have a hard time articulating their own and will sometimes skirt around them. They can struggle with clarity and making a direct ask (selling included!). A super detailed and analytical marketing plan can be overwhelming for them, but their service is killer because they’re great at encouraging, deeply listening, and making sure people remember their value regardless of where they are at in life. A few mellow marketing tips for nurturers:1. Feel through marketing changes, pay attention to your emotions, and be open to things changing or taking a bit more time than expected to prove effective2. Realize that your personality in of itself is rare in the business world and sharing your values will support you in selling. 3. Incorporate relationship-driven marketing and emotional bonding into how you connect with leads and clients; consent-based testimonials are also a great way to do this.Learn more about the Leadership Designs on our blog!

You're An Analyst!
Image Source
For analysts, their core need is to be right.Analysts are MASTERS at details and a checklist. They enjoy planning and knowing as much as possible about what they do and any investment they’re going to make. They gather information and have all the questions, which can lead to inaction when they don’t get all the answers they seek. They respond well to structures and a process, and can come up with a solution for most situations.They are calculated in every decision they make and words they write because they like to observe and take in environments before jumping in. This reality can make them seem standoffish or even cold in social situations, even if they're actually really engaged. They’re usually the one out of their friend group that does all the planning and makes the itinerary, but can be stubborn once they come to a decision because of all the data that has been gathered to drive it. It’s important for them to feel safe in their knowledge, knowing that the path is clear and makes logical sense. Similarly, they are often committed to their EXACT business goals and can have a harder time being flexible with them when shifts present themselves, or can forget their needs when the pressure hits. They sweat the small stuff and, because of that, have a knack for breaking things up into digestible pieces for people (like educational content!).A few mellow marketing tips for analysts:1. You can benefit from a detailed, step-by-step marketing game plan + process overview laid out with exactly how things will happen, when, and why. 2. Messy action is generally not for you, but that means you’re excellent at hyper-focusing on the process and planning is your jam. 3. Batching content can be very supportive for you to be able to plan ahead and know what to expect.Learn more about the Leadership Designs on our blog!

You're A Conductor!
Image Source
For conductors, their core need is to be in control.Conductors are very logical and prefer to get things done on the most effective and shortest of timelines. They’re quick decision-makers and their zone of genius is to keep the momentum going with their eye on the prize to get the project done. They’re not worried about the details because they’ll get it done.For conductors, their core need is to be in control, because when they run the show, historically things go smoothly. They emphasize logic and having a high level of autonomy. They do NOT like being told what to do and certainly rebel, or even ghost, when someone is perceived to be telling them how they should do things. In groups, they are willing to delegate or even take charge to make sure things stay “on schedule” and “on task” because they don’t like to handhold and often have a low tolerance for beginners. In social situations, they can be seen as intimidating and their directness/blunt nature can be taken the wrong way. They're not afraid to share what they think! They’re high risk-takers and very ambitious with their big-picture business goals and what it takes to work towards them. While they really get stuff done when they're committed, they can struggle with burnout because resilience is second nature to them and rest hasn’t felt like an option.A few mellow marketing tips for analysts:1. You may really like the traditional coupon, fast action bonus, open cart, and act-fast vibes when it comes to marketing because it automates itself! And as long as it’s transparent support your folks, that’s cool.2. Try emphasizing outsourcing in your next move and delegating to take some of the ease off. You can still have autonomy with some support.3. Let yourself nerd out and research the pros and cons of a marketing move before considering if it’s a good fit for you; just because you’re good at it doesn’t mean you should do it.Learn more about the Leadership Designs on our blog!
4.
You're A Visionary!
Image Source
For a visionary, their core need is to be recognized and validated. Visionaries are the ones with the BIG ideas and the big energy highs to go ahead and make them happen. They don’t like to focus on the details, especially at that moment of idea excitement (if ever). When people ask about the details, it can kill the vibe for them, big time. They’re excellent at getting excited, brainstorming, and inspiring others! They struggle with clarity around the steps to make an idea happen and can even lack follow-through. Their energy is magnetic and they love their audience. Even if they’re introverted, they are social butterflies in the right setting or any setting. Traditional business really wasn’t built for how they do things. They experience energy in waves of highs and lows, which can create a perception of “inconsistency” according to mainstream marketing. One day they’ll want to create a new product, write a book, and do a pop-up workshop, and the next they’ll want to quit or wonder why they even had those ideas.They are high risk-takers and their decision-making is fast and energetic. Trusting their gut is key. If something feels good, then they’re IN even before they’re in. Visionaries are committed to their vision and not betraying who they are, while at the same time craving financial stability so their ideas can flow.A few mellow marketing tips for analysts:1. You have a knack for inspiring, so putting your big ideas in writing, video presenting, or podcasting is the best way to get sales. CONVERSION VIA PREACHING your visionary energy, baby. 2. Your philosophy is the way to bring people into your work. Ideate a lot, then break down which ideas are more important to you than others and figure out the processes in that order. 3. Leave room for the boring parts that will inevitably support the fun ones because a good mix of stability and chaos is where you fully arrive. Learn more about the Leadership Designs on our blog!
