Speech Writing

Speech writing is both art and science. Knowing what to say is only half the battle. Knowing how to say it can make the difference between success and failure. While delivering a speech in public might be one of the most terrifying events in your life, a great speech can do more to advance your career — or to help you make history — than any other way of communicating.

There are a few all-too-common sins of speech writing we can help you avoid:

• Going over time
• Confusing the audience with jargon
• Rushing
• Straying off topic or rambling
• Padding, waffling, or generally boring your audience to sleep.

If you want to set the world on fire, deliver results from your last quarter, or send your sister off at her wedding reception, our speech writers can help. Our experienced speech writers have written for every occasion — from stand-up comedy and humorous debates right through to presentations and announcements by executive management, captains of industry, and politicians (all the way up to ministers and premiers).

Our complete speech writing service can help you:

• Select a format for your speech
• Develop a tone appropriate to the event
• Capture your voice to help you speak naturally and with conviction
• Add humour, irony, or a bit of sass to make it memorable
• Deliver a message that resonates with your audience
• Structure an argument
• Write a strong closing to rally the troops or make a call to action
• Nail your delivery by making suggestions for practice and pacing, and attending rehearsals.

Why should you work with Typeset on your next speech?

Both Dan and Sarah have been writing and giving speeches for decades. They know what it feels like to stand in front of a room with hundreds of eyes on you. They’ve experienced the jitters of anticipation before a speech, the exhilaration of nailing your  topic, and the despair of not hitting the mark. Whether it’s delivering a case study, speaking at an international conference, or performing Master of Ceremony duties at a large event, they know what works and what doesn’t through personal experience.
