Shark Bite Biz
200+ episodes of straight-talk business growth. Sales, marketing, leadership, and the lessons nobody sugarcoats — hosted by David Strausser, dad, guitarist, and the guy who sells ERP for a living.
No fluff, no guru theater. Shark Bite Biz is where David talks with founders, operators, authors, and the occasional rock legend about what actually moves a business forward: closing deals, leading people, marketing that works, and surviving the mistakes everybody makes but nobody admits.
If you’re building something — a company, a career, a second act — this is your show. Loud when it needs to be, honest always.

Bank on Yourself with Mark Willis of Lake Growth
The money secrets of the super wealthy, broken down for the rest of us.
That’s the tip of the archive — 200+ more episodes live on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and YouTube.
What you’ll hear
Sales without the sleaze. Real pipeline talk from someone who closes for a living — outreach, follow-up, and the follow-through most people skip.
Marketing that ships. Positioning, content, and the unglamorous consistency that actually builds an audience.
Leadership, dad-style. Leading teams the way you’d want to be led — straight, fair, and allergic to corporate theater.
Guests with receipts. Founders, operators, authors, and musicians who’ve done the thing — not theorists, doers.
Got a story worth a microphone?
Founders, operators, and doers welcome. Pitch yourself as a guest — or just come listen.
