Sales Success Starts Here: The Game-Changing Mindset

The Playbook With David Meltzer

In today’s episode, I connect with Larry “Duce” Raymond, a barbecue pioneer whose path mirrors my own in unexpected ways. From losing everything to rebuilding stronger, we share how the toughest setbacks can become the foundation for incredible growth. Duce opens up about navigating the near-collapse of his catering business, while I reflect on the lessons learned from losing $100 million and finding a better version of myself. Together, we discuss the importance of mindset, self-image, and faith in overcoming challenges, as well as the value of surrounding yourself with the right people to unlock your full potential.
