Praise for the book

Maxine shares some awesome tips, tools, and techniques regardless of whether you are new to sales or a true sales warrior. I love the Q&A approach as it is very conversational and easy to follow. It gives you immediate, easy-to-find answers to questions that are on your mind.

You can use it as a guidebook and pull it out any time you need to know how to handle just about anything related to sales and building better relationships. I highly recommend this book to those looking to better themselves and their relationships.

I read with awe this book which I coin as an essential 武林秘籍 (martial arts secret manual) for sales warriors, regardless of the industry. I find good relevancy in all the chapters as Maxine is able to relate and guide the reader professionally, through her personal experiences and through her years of engagement with many top sales experts. My favourite reads are the chapters on Speed Profiling and Selling to the New Generation as they provide very interesting sagacity. I love the Action Plan section at the close of every chapter as it helps readers to reflect, summarise, and put their thoughts into action.

I never knew that one can profile someone so easily and quickly. Maxine introduced the simplest way to do so with her two-step approach which will definitely come in handy for HR professionals like me who constantly need to engage staff and stakeholders. Maxine guides the reader on what kind of strategies one should adopt to manage the different profiles of people. I also like the way the book is being arranged, with the flexibility to start at any chapter. This book is not just meant for salespeople; it is for everyone in any profession. If one has been struggling in getting one’s ideas across or having challenging times in managing one’s bosses, look no further. This is the book one must read.

The Secret Manual of the Sales Warrior is a mini MBA Sales Course in disguise. It covers everything from the pre-works to actual engagement with prospects and clients. For the experts in sales, there are sections in the form of Questions and Answers where you can close in quickly on a topic of interest. For the novices, you are guided by an Action Planning list at the end of each chapter. This is not a book; it is a secret manual written by a highly-esteemed sales warrior for future warriors.

Engaging, Personable, and most importantly 100 per cent Relatable and immediately Applicable. As a sales warrior in the making, this book has instantly boosted my confidence and will become the one manual that I will always use when I want to achieve success in what I do. Thank you, Maxine, for the carefully designed manual that covers well all aspects for one to transform from a Sales Amateur to a Sales “Connoisseur” — in other words, a full-fledged Sales Warrior.

Having worked closely with Maxine over the past years to deliver high-level training programmes to executives in the Asia Pacific region, I was delighted to have the opportunity to both read and make a contribution to Maxine’s first book!

My initial thoughts were: How can you transfer years of training knowledge into a book format? Having read through the Secret Manual of the Sales Warrior, I was incredibly impressed. It is an essential guide for leaders of people across different industries. Certainly a must-have and a must-read!

I wish Maxine all the best in her future endeavours and I am sure she will continue to be a leader in the industry to people like myself for many years to come.

This is truly one of the best sales books I have ever read. It teaches you how to master techniques and strategies to become a Sales Warrior. Once you start reading, you will find it hard to put down as all the twelve topics truly describe the challenges faced by today’s salespeople. Selling is part and parcel of life. These tips are handy not just for the salesperson but for those managing teams. What sets this book apart from other sales books is that the ever colourful and bubbly Maxine not only shares the concepts, she further illustrates with stories, examples, and case studies. It is a great personal development book which every salesperson must have.
