David Meltzer on Why 80% of Your Work Is Losing You Money

This week on Trades Talk, Justin White sits down with David Meltzer, legendary entrepreneur, speaker, and former CEO of the most notable sports agency in the world. David lost more than one hundred million dollars and went bankrupt, then built it all back with two coaches, a set of non-negotiables, and a mission to help over one billion people be happy. His message to the trades is direct: most contractors lose money on eighty percent of their work because they never get comfortable charging what they are worth. In this fast, high energy conversation, David unpacks how to fix that, and how the way you sleep, think, and show up decides everything else. In this episode: Why eighty percent of the work most contractors take is quietly losing them money The two coaches David hired after losing everything, and why one was for sleep How two minutes a day beats two hours on a Saturday The simple daily conversation that turns strangers into buyers for life David’s trade secret is a single question you can ask everyone you meet, and it can send more than a hundred buyers your way every month. Whether you are burning out, undercharging, or just ready to think bigger, this one will change how you value your time, your work, and yourself.
