Ep 125 – Dolores G Hirschmann, Masters in Clarity – Turning Thought Leadership into Pipeline
Featuring: Dolores G Hirschmann, Masters in Clarity
In episode 125, I sit down with Dolores Hirschmann, investor, strategist, and founder of Masters in Clarity. Dolores has built, scaled, and sold businesses—including one to Pete Vargas and Grant Cardone after growing it to eight figures. A former TEDx organizer, she now helps service professionals and thought leaders clarify their message, craft high-converting signature talks, and get booked on stages that drive real business results. We explore her journey from early internet marketing in Argentina to launching an outbound speaker agency, and she shares her framework for creating talks that convert, practical tips for pitching event organizers, and why thought leadership is still one of the most powerful growth levers for agencies.
Key Bytes
• Thought leadership isn’t about celebrity—it’s about clarity and consistency
• A great talk is less about what you say and more about what your audience walks away with
• Don’t pitch event organizers with long bios—open the door with a simple yes/no question
• The best call-to-action from stage isn’t a free consultation, it’s a free resource tied to your talk
• A signature talk framework can be applied to any presentation—keynote, workshop, or boardroom update
• Speaking is one of the most scalable ways to build trust, demonstrate expertise, and generate new business
