Danny Winer - Failed Hollywood Actor To Bankrupt Businessman To Creating The $600 Million Hexclad Cookware Company With Gordon Ramsay!


Listen Later

Welcome back to the podcast whereby his week, we’re joined by Danny Winer, the man behind one of the most talked-about cookware brands in the game: HexClad.


From aspiring actor to cookware kingpin, Danny’s journey is anything but ordinary. He opens up about his early missteps, including the juicing business that collapsed overnight, and how he kept the faith when things looked bleak. He shares how HexClad was built on sheer graft—begging, borrowing, and (not-quite) stealing their way through the early days—and how they turned the chaos of the pandemic into a business advantage by hiring an entire freelance sales team when everyone else was making cuts.


And then there’s the Gordon Ramsay moment—a chance DM that snowballed into one of the most successful chef partnerships in recent memory.


It’s a story of resilience, reinvention, and a fair bit of hustle. Tune in for an episode packed with lessons on business, belief, and the fine art of the sales pitch.
