Supporters

Supporters are kind, empathetic people. They are attentive and concerned about avoiding harm and promoting the well-being of their partners. They are simply helpful. Those who communicate with a supporter can gain a friend as long as they do not try to change their world.

The strongest motivations of a supporter are:

Communication

Communication with a supporter should provide for their basic needs for reliability (security) and harmony (empathy, closeness). Open, calm personal conversations in which we take time to empathize with the issues and carefully weigh the pros and cons are helpful. Remain open to him, naturally friendly, and do not push him to make quick decisions.
The personal conversation is about both of you, because the supporter wants to empathize, also with what moves you. He wants to talk to you in a harmonious atmosphere and that needs your openness and calmness. When the climate of the conversation is right, talk about the content. He wants to be able to grasp what it is all about. This means his kinesthetic or haptic sensory channel is active. Stability is best conveyed when you can take things in your hands. If you want to convince him, put the facts on the table and leave it to him to check them out, empathize with them, and determine that he is and remains on the safe side.
The supporter needs reliable material for his decisions. This can be models or documents that he can print out if you do not send him brochures, certificates or the like anyway. Anything you can put your hands on establishes certainty. This can be your most important goal: to convey to him that your ideas have a hand and a foot, are justified by experience and well-considered. The impression of reliability is underlined by the correct form of cover letters and the neat design of documents.
