The Curse of Knowledge
(def.) The more you know about something, the harder it is to explain to an outsider.
Have you ever watched your message fall flat?
Whether you’re…
A professional speaker who needs to move your audience to action
An expert who communicates with non-experts to secure funding or approval
A sales professional who has to consistently exceed ever-increasing targets
A leader who needs buy-in from your team or stakeholders
We get it.
There’s nothing more frustrating than being unable to clearly convey your ideas to the people who most need to hear them.
Our clients are the best and brightest in their industry - in many cases, properly famous in their fields.
Yet they struggle to communicate their expertise clearly.
And it really matters. Because it turns out…
The best ideas don’t win.
The clearest ideas win.
That’s why we train experts, leaders, and speakers how to communicate clearly and earn buy-in from the people who matter most.
So if you’re an academic, researcher, industry authority, sales professional, or thought leader who needs to present your ideas in formal presentations - keynotes, workshops, pitches…
At Clarity Up we can teach you how to put the right ideas in the right order, every time.

Frequently asked questions about Clarity Up Consulting
-
Clarity Up LLC is a consulting firm that teaches experts, leaders, and speakers how to clearly communicate their big ideas with confidence and earn buy-in from the people who matter most. We specialize in core messaging and, specifically, communication design - how a speech or presentation is structured.
-
We work with academics, researchers, executives, industry authorities, sales professionals, and thought leaders to drive action on their projects and ideas.
-
Yes, but with a caveat. Most programs that help people make money speaking make outrageous claims about what’s possible in short time frames. The truth is, the speaking industry is built on relationships, and relationships take time.
We help aspiring speakers build their core messaging, create clear and compelling marketing assets, and build a personalized plan for outreach and networking that, when executed well and with patience, turns into paid speaking.
-
Yes. We help anyone in a sales capacity be a clear and compelling communicator. In the case of nonprofits, the audience are potential donors and the action you’re seeking is a donation. So we work backwards from that goal in order to produce a presentation that earns buy-in and drive donations.
-
Yes, but probably not the way you think. We believe that anxiety around public speaking doesn’t come from avoiding saying “um” and “ah”, learning how to breathe, or plant your feet properly. Sure - those can all help. But 90% of your confidence as a speaker actually comes from the message structure itself. Get the structure right and watch your nerves (mostly) melt away. For the other 10%, you’ll work with our world class presentation skills coach.
