I believe this could be a better book if the autor included a guideline with the laws and main descriptions, to remember all laws after Reading the book is not posible.

read it twice!

I like the ideas and the examples offered by the book. I like that it's applicable in many fields of work, not just in sales.

Great Book very insightful

What did you love best about Maximum Influence: 2nd Edition?

there were so many good points In the book I will have to listen to it at least one more time to try to get them all down. Not only is this book covered back to back with academic research but it also gets down to the practical points of what actions you actually need to take in order to become an influencer. Dont be fooled by the kitsch name, this book is wonderful!

Loooooong listen

It may depend on what you are looking to learn, but in my case it didn't actually get interesting and useful enough until the second half. I struggled a bit to pay attention to this one, because I felt like the actual techniques either weren't described properly or that they weren't described until the end of the book.

good introduction to the topic.

Etremely light on details. Seemed designed to push traffic to his website. Disappointing for that reason.
