At Rainmaker Associates, we are problem solvers. We’re passionate abouthelping people solve problems and overcome challenges so thatthey can achieve their potential.

We take initiative and own the problem
We take the customer’s success personally and advocate for them (even though they may fight it)
We value hard work and smart thinking
We team up with each other, our customers and our partners

We love to make an impact, to leave our mark, to take on a challenge, to master something new, to “figure it out”, to muscle through

We hate futility & monotony, to waste clients’ money, to leave the job undone, when we point out the cliff and they jump off!

If you share these values, then you can be a Rainmaker!
