Personal Marketing Style Questionnaire

Instructions to Questions - Read Carefully

The following questionnaire is designed to help you identify which marketing activities are best suited to you. This is to assist you in getting the up and coming work done as quickly and efficiently as possible by identifying your strengths and compounding on them.

Rank the choices under each statement in order of your preference; six (6) being most descriptive of your preferences; one (1) being least descriptive of your preferences.

Key things to remember:

a. Under any particular question or statement you must give each preference a number. Just put the number out to the right or left of the preference.

b. Under any particular question or statement, there can only be one 6, one 5, one 4, one 3, one 2, and one 1.

c. Question number 8 may appear different, but it is not. Do not give each word its own number. There are six groups of words there. Give each group its own number.

Remember, give the aspect you like the best and would most enjoy doing a "6."

If you are doing your business as a couple or have a partner, do this part individually. Do not discuss your answers with your partner.
