“I had the privilege of working with Christina as in the capacity of a career coach, and I cannot recommend her highly enough.

She has a rare talent for helping young and experienced career switchers navigate the complexities of transitioning, personal branding, as well as professional growth.

From the very first session, Christina’s approachable demeanor and active listening skills put me at ease. She took the time to understand my unique career goals and challenges, tailoring her guidance to suit my needs. Christina provided actionable advice on everything from resume editing and LinkedIn profile enhancements to networking strategies and interview preparation.

Christina has also never provided cookie-cutter advice, often acknowledging that certain career paths might not be for everyone. She thoughtfully went through what we felt were my strengths and weaknesses and helped provide tailored recommendations to align with my unique aspirations and challenges.

Whole-heartedly recommend her as a career coach!”

 

Christina is a great, cheerful, but focused mentor. At first I am skeptic on how much I can learn, after all I am quite “well trained” when I was serving in my previous companies. However, I am glad that I am proven wrong, and Christina is a like a fountain of knowledge and real-life experience that continue to flood me with her new perspective and approaches.

Her gung-ho, yet down to earth approach is really what made the difference in my learning experience. Her sharing alone worth every time and resource investment I put into Sales Symphony.

I recommend her course to all Sales Professional and Leader. You will be a better, focused and hungrier sales person, and a better leader who can guide, coach your team when you know how to orchestrate your opportunities, pipelines and finally your wins.

Thank you Christina, and I am fully confident you will be seeing more successes, because our success story will be the testimony of Sales Symphony.

“Christina embodies the perfect never-give-up attitude! She is absolutely fearless; making unconventional choices to bring her A-Game in both her personal and professional commitments.

She generously paves the way for all those who seek to a successful Sales career by sharing her rich experiences, making time to meet in-person, and reinforcing the importance of hard work, not letting fear get in the way and continuous learning in everything one sets out to do.

Her highly infectious energy and unwavering self-belief are undoubtedly inspirational to everyone around her and serve as a reminder to always dream big!”

 

“I first known Christina when she was an Account Manager who were well organised and passionate in selling. Throughout the years, her skills and experience always keep up with the industry and market trends.

Now, happy to see her to put all these into a structured coaching program to share and coach either individuals or organisations who are looking to build up their selling competency, sales leadership and sales career development with strong branding strategies.

Christina, shared a wonderful LinkedIn workshop with Greater Club members. She inspired me to just start sharing on LinkedIn, and convinced me of the value of it. I admire Christina’s energy and passion for sales and I can see she walks the talk! Thank you Christina, I enjoyed getting to know you.

 

I highly recommend Christina based on my experience with the Sales Success Orchestrator Workshop. The workshop provided learnings that have had a significant impact on my processes.

During the course, she kept the thoughts of the team together well and managed to personalize her way of coaching to each unique individual. She also went the extra mile to invite her connections to assist us with our roleplays and business processes.

In conclusion, Christina’s Sales Success Orchestrator Workshop has assisted myself and my team greatly and I would recommend any sales team to reach out to her for a direct positive impact. Good job Christina!

 

Christina is as astute as she is earnest. Her incredible passion and extensive knowledge for sales is matched only by her heartfelt desire to help others succeed. It has been an absolute pleasure working with her.

 

Christina as Sales Director is a very good team player. She also leads well in strategic selling especially in larger accounts, and getting to know new clients.

 

Energetic & enthusiastic

A good coach, with extensive real-life (hard knocks) experience on what really works.

Would highly recommend her.

 

Min Shyan is the epitome of high octane energy, hunger to learn, great curiosity & a can-do, never say die spirit, all hallmarks of a successful individual.

Thanks for motivating me to aspire to greatness & really enjoyed working with you!

 

Christina is an amazing mentor. She is a lady full of creativity and fresh perspectives. She has made me improve in many professional areas and taught me about people and sales skills. Christina is able to break down sessions into easily digestible pieces of information that help me easily grasp and execute them. She has also gone beyond the call of duty. I truly cherish the relationship and friendship with Christina. Her selling skills are top-notch and impressive. It is my pleasure to get to know Christina.

 

Christina is a rare breed of sales professional that strategises for every single sales. She sees things beyond the current situation and always eager to assist every customer. She always maintains good rapport with customers and her fellow colleagues. She is always willing to teach the juniors and to help them in every way possible, always a team player looking at the bigger picture. It is always great to be working side by side with her.

 

I worked with Christina during our time in Nexwave. She had always impressed upon me as a driven and objective colleague, someone that is persistent and isn’t afraid to have difficult conversations. Her dedication to customer won us many projects during the product startup phase. As a personal friend, she listens and mentors me with her industry experiences, provides wisdom of thought regularly during our catchup. Now she has started out on her own. I am sure she would make a great coach and mentor to people. Kudos Christina!!

 

It was so motivating having Christina for the pleasant spontaneous coaching session as she had provided me with so many insights on how I can be defined again on this mid-career path.

Besides sharing with me the journey she had taken, she went on to explain how an organisation or business owner can benefit from a Sales Coach as it involves more just than textbook theories but also past sales experience.

She is definitely a Subject Matter Expert on sales.

Can’t wait for my next conversation!

 

I have worked extensively with Christina when she helmed the post of Account Manager and was responsible for sales and marketing for Computer-Based Training Solutions (CBTS).

Christina has always been very customer-orientated and passionate about the products and services she is marketing. This is something that many salespeople lack. Her dedication and focus on her customer requirements and her ability to provide good advice to customers had led her to secure many successful mega deals including the supply of S10 million CBTS to 32 campsites of the Ministry of Defense. Other deals were the National University of Singapore, Port of Singapore Authority, National Computer Board, Singapore Polytechnic, Media Corp.

But what impressed me the most about Christina was not only her intelligence and diligence but also her perseverance and never-say-die attitude when encountering setbacks in sales situations. In some of those mentioned deals Christina faced brutal competition and at times left fighting an uphill battle to recover her position. For that Christina earned full respect from her customers and colleagues.

With such experiences and outstanding skills, I am convinced that Christina is someone that can impart the skills and deep insights into the principle of sales and marketing to anyone that is considering acquiring these skills.

 

I highly recommend Christina based on my experience with the Sales Success Orchestrator Workshop and Coaching. The workshop provided invaluable key learnings that have had a significant impact on my sales strategies. Christina’s guidance on sales techniques has been truly transformative, and I’ve already begun applying her insights, leading to noticeable improvements in my sales approach.

Christina’s delivery of the program was exceptional. Her ability to break down complex concepts into practical, actionable steps stood out to me. She fostered an engaging and collaborative learning environment, ensuring that each participant felt supported and empowered to implement the strategies effectively. Christina’s passion for sales excellence was palpable throughout the program, and I thoroughly enjoyed her enthusiastic and approachable teaching style.

In conclusion, Christina’s Sales Success Orchestrator Workshop and Coaching have been instrumental in enhancing my sales skills and approach. Her expertise, engaging teaching style, and impactful insights make her an outstanding resource for anyone looking to excel in the field of sales.

 

Christina was a dedicated professional who demonstrated humility and willingness to learn and to contribute. She embraced the company culture well and was not afraid of hard work. She came across as a matured sales professional. I enjoyed working with her.

 

I highly recommend Christina Tan and her transformative “Smart Career Strategy” workshop. Christina’s expertise and guidance have significantly boosted my confidence in public speaking and networking. Her practical, insightful approach has been instrumental in my professional development. Thank you, Christina, for your impactful mentorship and for providing the tools necessary for growth.

 

Christina is a highly motivated sales leader.

She have diverse working experience, from value-added distributor, local system integrator to multi-national corporation; this unique experience enable her to analyze with multi-perspective.

Last but not least, she possess rare patience, which is critical as a coach and mentor.

 

Christina adds value wherever she goes. Conversing with her is like looking into a mirror – you see yourself with greater clarity. Her thoughtful questions forces one to consider different perspectives to challenge the status quo. I leave feeling refreshed and inspired!

 

Christina is very resilient and resourceful during the startup period where we worked very closely as a team to open the Aruba WLAN market for Singapore.

She was instrumental in winning many global and key accounts.

The competition against large established players was stiff, but her grit and business acumen brought us great success.

If you want to open new markets, Christina is the expert in this!

 

Christina knows everything about sales. Which is why I have no qualms about taking up her program and coaching sessions. Always interesting to hear and pickup pointers due to her vast experiences in sales. The tools and techniques she provided will also prove to be valuable assets in my journey ahead. Thanks Christina.

 

I highly recommend Christina for her career coaching skills! As a graduate trying to figure out my career path and next steps, she takes the time to listen to my messy thoughts, plans, and concerns. Subsequently, ask questions while providing frameworks at appropriate timings to guide me in finding structure and clarity in my thoughts. Truly grateful for the process and going out of her way to provide valuable guidance!!

 

Our conversation about my sales methodologies, pipeline, sales strategies and the sales challenges that I come across on a day-to-day basis made me realise that I actually needed sales coaching more than I thought! Best impromptu decision I made.

Christina took the time to listen and dig deep into my current sales processes and gave suggestions on how to improve it so that I can become better in this role and work smarter (not harder!). Thank you for your help.

 

Christina definitely knows her stuff. Even within the short span of an hour, I could witness for myself her professional approach and knowledge about SW sales. Solid sales system that looks at selling in a holistic manner.

Christina is not only a subject matter expert in sales strategy but also has an innate ability to connect with people and motivate them to push their boundaries. I could feel her genuine passion for developing others and observe her hands-on approach to mentoring. I am convinced she is always willing to go the extra mile to support individuals as they grow.

 

Hi Christina,

You have been such an excellent role model in all that you do and coach. The good experiences I had with you are countless. Your rich experience, expertise and encouragement shared during the sessions have motivated and inspired me to excel in what I do and overcome challenges that were once thought impossible. I have seen much progress in enhancing my skills and remembering the SSO program as a guidance and discipline in this journey. Many good practical “hands on” experiences also helps in the process of growth and confidence.

More companies should leverage on your expertise to enhance and sharpen the skills of their sales staff if they want to build a strong and self-motivated sales team.

Thank you for all your time and effort as I have learnt so much from you. Really appreciate the friendship built through the process too!

Christina is very passionate about growing her career and primarily focused on making an impact on people’s lives every single day and build long lasting relationships with colleagues, clients and friends.

Christina is great in creative thinking and analytical skills that enable her to offer interesting solutions to her clients to resolve their issues and challenges, and is very resourceful in knowing how to leverage on everyone’s strength to achieve goals together as a team.

Christina is an empathetic sales person who listens intently to what actually affects her clients, and then allows them the freedom to express their thoughts and concerns.

She will always put herself in their shoes without judgment but with authenticity and truly understands and always looks at how best to help her clients.

Last but not least, she takes ownership and accountability for her actions, whatever are the outcomes.

I have worked with Min Shyan on a few major opportunities and several sales engagements. She is a hardworking and enthusiastic Account Manager and also found her to be very proactive, diligent and professional and always focused on meeting the clients’ requirements.

Min Shyan has shown strong leadership in a couple of bids and also very helpful to all colleagues.

 

Christina is a diligent team player, passionate about sales and always ready to learn to take on new tasks.

 

Christina is amazing! As a coach to graduating students, she is able to pinpoint our concerns and share to her experience – in a language that undergraduates are able to comprehend. Her tips and advices are actionable, to which I have implemented and proved useful. I’m thankful to receive her training and highly recommend to any keen trainee!

 

Christina had been instrumental in managing and uncovering mega government projects in complex accounts.

As a natural leader and team player, she led business subsidiaries to propose critical solutions for these clients.

She is committed, self-motivated and capable in carrying out her heavy responsibilities.

I believe you will find her a pleasure to work with as I did.

 

I connected with Christina in 2024 and was always amazed by the high energy that jumps out of her daily posts. Our conversation started with my comments that “salespeople are equipped with big hearts in facing emotions and rejections”. In our milk/coffee session, she showed me [1] prioritization, pinpointed [2] the area that requires intentional practice to enable long-term success, and, last but not least, affirmations [3] how I stepped into different tech industries on roles that focus on expansion investment and restorative strategies.

I would recommend Christina for career direction, strategies formation for life/career balance, and the talented brains who are committed to sustainable performance results in life and work.

 

I have engaged Christina to brainstorm and to revisit, sharpen sales framework and methodology and how it fit into a business strategy. Her communication throughout the engagement was clear and straight to the point. The consultations were highly interactive; the course contents were highly relevant in today’s context.

I reckon these were possible due to Christina’s extensive experiences as a vendor or system integrator across multiple industries. I would highly recommend to anyone who wanted to sharpen their thought process or improve their sales skills to next level.

 

I know Chris when she was my partner in crime working on a telco account that we were breaking into. Through the process, she demonstrated remarkable sales capabilities when she orchestrated inroads into the account. The insights that she possessed, knowledge of the account and mature approach she adopted demonstrated the of an experienced salesperson. This enabled us to reacquire the account that the company has lost hold of for a few years. We have since go on and closed a few groundbreaking deals for the organization during her tenure in the company. That further demonstrated her touch as an entrepreneur taking on unconventional opportunities.

So happy to have seen Chris started this outfit to share her rich experience and insights gained with all budding as well as experienced sales professionals who aspire to do better. I firmly believe that as a sales coach, she will be able to guide the next generation of sales professionals achieve greater heights.
