TAKE THE FIRST STEP TODAY

Have questions we can help.

“ I USED THE PRESENTATION THAT YOU WROTE FOR US FOR A WEBINAR WE HAD LAST MONTH AND WE HAD THE BEST SALES MONTH THAT WE’VE HAD IN THE PAST FIVE YEARS! AND, WE GOT A TON OF GREAT FEEDBACK FROM IT! I BELIEVE THAT A BIG FACTOR IN THE SUCCESS WAS THE PRESENTATION THAT YOU CREATED FOR US. THANK YOU AGAIN! ”

Tanisha souza ceo & chief wealth coach, tardus wealth strategie, moxie’s speech writing process, copywriting to give you an unforgettable speech, the goal: identify your one big idea your time investment: 1-hour vision call.

Our first goal is simple: to find out what your talk is all about. We’ll focus on two questions: What’s the one big idea the audience should take away? And how will your main points support it? If you’d like, you can go ahead and start sketching these ideas ahead of our vision call!

THE OUTLINE

The goal: finalize the structure of your talk turnaround: typically 5-7 days your time investment: 1-2 hours to review & revise.

After our vision work, your speechwriter or copywriter will assemble it all into the structure of a compelling talk. We’ll then send you a detailed outline to review, revise, and fill in as needed. This step is crucial: it’s our chance to ensure the talk has everything it should. We’ll be leaning on you to supply the necessary details and stories (since you’re the only one who’s got them!). You can provide those however you’d like: bullet points, stream-of-consciousness Word docs, haiku, audio notes, a phone call.. whatever is easiest and stress-free for you!

Remember, there’s no need for you to say anything well at this point. Eloquence is optional here (since that’s what you’re paying us for!)… our first aim is to make sure we’re saying everything that needs to be said.

And because we’ll use the outline to write the speech itself, now’s the time to get it right: we can always restructure the talk later, but once we’ve agreed on the outline and we’ve produced a couple of drafts, it gets expensive to overhaul the core of the talk. In sum, the outline is our moment to capture your vision. Everything afterward will be about capturing your voice.

THE FIRST DRAFT

The goal: finalize the structure of your talk our speech writers turnaround: 1-1.5 weeks your time investment: up to you (1 hour average).

Just like a painter makes sketches before the final work, our next step is to sketch out the speech, script, or story line-by-line.

Think of the first draft as halfway between the outline and the final script. It’s less “say these words here” and more “say something like this here.”

How much time copy editing will you spend on this draft? It’s up to you! Some clients like to work and rework the language back and forth; most are happy enough to run with just a few changes.

THE GOAL: COMPLETE THE SPEECH AND MAKE IT UNFORGETTABLE TURNAROUND: 1-1.5 WEEKS YOUR TIME INVESTMENT: SIT BACK AND RELAX

At last, the final speech: expertly formatted and ready for you to memorize or (if it’s absolutely necessary) read from the stage.

Now’s the time to celebrate how your time and attention have paid off. Congrats, you made your dreams come to life!

TAKE THE FIRST STEP

You don’t have to be great to get going. but, you have to get going to be great, leading executives rely on us, for our methodologies and approach., “the speech went fantastic”.

Bringing a speech into the world comes in two parts: writing and delivery. Both are their own world, require different skills and expertise, and both cause nerves for most would-be speakers. If you hire a speech writer, you get a beautifully crafted and personalized speech, tailored to your voice, that is guaranteed to be persuasive, inspiring, and memorable. It means that all you have to do is focus your energy on delivering your tailored message with passion and confidence.

Of course! We offer industry-leading speech writing coaching, corporate, training, and an online course.. But if life happens and you find yourself in a situation where you don’t have the time to do a speech justice, bringing our speech writing services into the picture allows you to focus the time you do have onto the delivery.

Nothing is left to chance. Throughout the process, there are multiple touchpoints between our highly skilled speech writer and you to guide the outcome of the speech. That includes moments before and after the speech is written.

What does a speechwriter do?

Would you make a good speechwriter? Take our career test and find your match with over 800 careers.

What is a Speechwriter?

A speechwriter specializes in creating speeches for clients, usually for politicians, executives, or public figures. The primary responsibility of a speechwriter is to craft a compelling message that effectively communicates the speaker's ideas, values, and objectives to the audience. This requires not only exceptional writing skills but also the ability to understand the speaker's personality, voice, and audience's expectations, as well as the context of the speech.

Speechwriters typically work closely with their clients to understand their goals, message, and audience. They research the topic, gather data and information, and write a draft speech, which they then edit and refine until it meets the speaker's needs. This involves creating an outline, selecting the right words, tone, and structure, and ensuring the speech is well-organized and coherent. In some cases, speechwriters may also assist in rehearsing and delivering the speech, providing feedback and guidance to the speaker to ensure they deliver the message effectively.

What does a Speechwriter do?

Speechwriters are valuable assets in any organization or public figure's communication team because they possess the expertise to craft well-written, impactful speeches that can inspire, persuade, and inform the audience. They can help ensure that the message is communicated clearly and effectively, and that the tone and style of the speech match the speaker's personality and objectives.

Speechwriters also have the ability to research and understand the audience, tailoring the content to their specific needs and interests. In addition, they can help their clients save time and reduce stress by taking on the task of writing and editing the speech, allowing the speaker to focus on delivering it with confidence and passion.

Duties and Responsibilities The following are some of the key duties and responsibilities of a speech writer:

• Research: Before writing a speech, a speech writer must conduct research on the topic to ensure that they have a deep understanding of the subject matter. This may involve reading relevant articles, books, and reports, as well as conducting interviews with subject matter experts. The speech writer must also research the audience to ensure that the speech is tailored to their interests, knowledge level, and cultural background. In addition, they may research the occasion or event to ensure that the speech is appropriate for the setting and tone.
• Writing: After completing the research, the speech writer must craft the speech in a clear, concise, and engaging manner. They must use language and tone that is appropriate for the audience and occasion, and convey the message in a compelling way. The speech writer must also consider the length of the speech, as well as any visual aids or other materials that may be used during the presentation.
• Editing: Once the speech is written, the speech writer must proofread and edit it for clarity, grammar, and tone. They may also seek feedback from others, such as the speaker or a trusted colleague, to ensure that the speech is effective and persuasive.
• Collaboration: Throughout the process, the speech writer must work closely with the speaker or client to ensure that the speech aligns with their vision and goals. This may involve multiple rounds of revisions and feedback, as well as ongoing communication to ensure that the speech is on track.
• Delivery: In some cases, the speech writer may be responsible for coaching the speaker on delivery techniques. This may include providing guidance on pacing, inflection, and body language to ensure that the speech is delivered in a confident and engaging manner.
• Feedback: Finally, the speech writer may be asked to solicit feedback from the audience or client to help improve future speeches. This may involve collecting surveys, conducting interviews, or analyzing social media and other feedback channels to identify areas for improvement.

Types of Speechwriters Here are some common types of speechwriters and what they do:

• Political Speechwriters: These speechwriters work for political leaders such as presidents, governors, and senators. They are responsible for creating speeches that communicate the leader's vision, policy proposals, and political platform.
• Corporate Speechwriters: These speechwriters work for companies and executives, crafting speeches that address stakeholders, shareholders, and employees. They may write speeches for product launches, shareholder meetings, and corporate events.
• Non-profit Speechwriters: These speechwriters work for non-profit organizations and charities, creating speeches that communicate the organization's mission, goals, and accomplishments.
• Freelance Speechwriters: These speechwriters work independently and are hired by individuals, businesses, and organizations to write speeches for specific events or occasions.

What is the workplace of a Speechwriter like?

The workplace of a speechwriter can vary depending on the organization they work for and the nature of their job. Generally, a speechwriter is responsible for crafting speeches and presentations that will be delivered by high-profile individuals, such as politicians, CEOs, or public figures. This can be a challenging and high-pressure role, as the quality of their work can have a significant impact on the reputation and success of the speaker.

In some cases, speechwriters may work directly for the individual they are writing for, such as a politician or CEO. In these situations, the workplace of the speechwriter may be within the same office or building as their client. They may attend meetings, events, and speeches with their client to gather information and ensure their writing is aligned with the speaker's messaging and tone.

In other cases, speechwriters may work for an agency or consulting firm, where they may have multiple clients across various industries. These speechwriters may work remotely or in a traditional office setting, collaborating with colleagues and clients through email, phone calls, and video conferencing. They may have a more flexible schedule than those working directly for an individual, but may also have to balance multiple projects and deadlines.

Regardless of the specific workplace, speechwriters typically work closely with their clients to understand their goals, audience, and messaging. They conduct research and gather information to inform their writing, and may collaborate with other team members, such as researchers or communication specialists, to ensure their work is accurate and effective. Depending on the organization, speechwriters may also be involved in other communication and marketing initiatives, such as developing social media content or creating press releases.

Praise for our best speech writers

Our clients are never left speechless. Here are a few things they have to say about working with our professional speech writers. ( Read more testimonials here. )

Severine Petras – convocation speaker

Geoff – satisfied groom from british columbia, krystal – satisfied maid of honor from illinois, aaron – best man from california, why people hire a freelance speech writer.

Why do people hire a speech writer? They are not good at writing. They are not used to speaking. They don’t know where to start. They want to sound professional. They are too busy to write the speech.

Whether public speaking excites you or terrifies you, whether you are a novice or an old pro, we can write your speech.

Speakers hire ghostwriters when they are not good at writing.

The most obvious reason to hire a speechwriter is if you are not good at writing. That is an excellent reason. You have been asked to speak because you are an expert at something. Unless you are speaking at a writers conference, you were probably not chosen for your writing expertise.

You bring the knowledge of the topic. We bring the words you’ll need to communicate. That’s why you hire a writer for your speech. The best speech writer finds your voice.

People like you hire speech ghostwriters when they are not used to speaking.

Even if you are a good writer, you might not be used to public speaking. Writing a speech is not like writing a letter. It’s worth hiring a speechwriter, because he knows how to write a speech.

It’s not just for his expertise that you might want to hire a speech writer. It might also be for your own confidence. Knowing that you have a solid speech to deliver means that you can walk up to the lectern with confidence.

The less familiar or comfortable you are with public speaking, the more important practice will be. Your speechwriter will make sure you get a draft on time, so that you can practice. Many people who write their own speeches procrastinate. That leaves little time for practice. Needless to say, those speeches and presentations tend to be less effective.

Speakers like you hire speechwriters when they don’t know where to start.

You might want to hire a speechwriter because you don’t know where to start. In fact, that’s one reason people hire writers in many situations.

We are used to writing speeches. We know where to start. We can take that burden from your shoulders.

Speakers hire professional speechwriters when they want to sound more professional.

Perhaps the best reason to hire a professional speech writer is to sound more professional or to be more effective. A good speech is made of many things:

• a worthwhile message
• a well-written speech
• a strong delivery
• an interested audience

It starts with a worthwhile message. That’s up to you. Then, you need someone to write a speech that will communicate that message. The rest is up to you, but freelance speech writers can take you that far.

• A sample of our speech writing skills – commencement speech
• A sample of our speech writing skills – motivational speech

Speakers hire freelance speechwriters when they are too busy to write it themselves.

You might be busy. In fact, if you have been asked to speak, it’s probably because you do a lot. If you wait for the last minute to draft your speech, it won’t be nearly as good.

Hiring a professional speechwriter is a great way to get your speech written while you do other things. You won’t have to worry about details, such as:

• fretting over words
• structuring the speech
• fitting in enough details
• avoiding too much detail
• worrying about timing or cadence

You will want to tweak the speech as you practice. But the bulk of the work will be done by the time you get the first draft.

How to find a freelance speechwriter for hire

If you need a professional speech writer, our writing agency can help. For a free quote on drafting your speech or speaking notes, tap or click the red button to the right.

How to work with a speech writer

Your speech will be most effective if you work with your speechwriter. Take the time to give the information they need.

What should you tell your speech writer? How fast you speak Your speaking style How you use humor What you want to say How you want the audience to feel What you want the audience to do

Tell your freelance speech writer how fast you speak.

There are two ways to measure the length of a speech. The most obvious is by time. You will be speaking for five minutes or ten minutes or 30 minutes.

Some speeches over 20 minutes get more complicated. A keynote speech is usually straightforward. A 30-minute speech lasts 30 minutes. But a 30-minute conference presentation might last only 20 minutes. That’s because you might need to reserve ten minutes for questions at the end.

The other way to measure the length of a speech is by word count. This might be of no concern to a speaker, but if you want to work with a speech writer, it is pretty important. Your speech writer needs to know how many words to write. That also affects how much we need to charge you.

A 20-minute speech would need just 1,600 words if you speak at 80 words per minute. That same speech would need 3,000 words spoken at 150 words per minute.

How fast do you speak? If you are unaccustomed to public speaking, you probably speak on the fast side. That’s what nerves do to many novice speakers. It’s worth trying to control the pace of your speaking, so that your audience can process what you say.

In the absence of other information, we assume a speaking pace of 100 words per minute.

Tell your professional speech writer about your speaking style.

This is important for a freelance speechwriter to know.

Do you like to explain things in detail?

Do you prefer to make emphatic points?

Do you like to ask questions of the audience and get them to raise their hands or shout out answers?

Do you prefer to speak directly to the audience, or do you prefer to have them stare at a screen of graphs and data?

Do you like to make points by telling stories?

The best speech writer finds your style. What’s your style?

Work with your speech writer on humor.

Humor is a touchy subject. A speech without humor is often very dry. But a speech that sounds like it is supposed to be funny, but isn’t, could prove to be a flop.

How much humor your speechwriter includes, and what type of humor, depends on you. What type of humor do you use in real life? Dry humor? Puns? Longer jokes? It’s best to carry your real-life style of humor into your presentation.

Tell your speech writer how you want the audience to feel.

At the end of the day, how do you want the audience to feel? Your freelance speechwriter can write words that will make the audience feel:

• heartbroken
• whatever you want them to feel

Whether tears of joy or just in tears, let your ghostwriter know how you want to leave your audience feeling.

Tell your speech ghostwriter exactly what you want the audience to do.

Whatever your audience feels at the end of the speech, once they leave the room, you are no longer in control. What do you want them to do with the information you gave them?

Maybe nothing. You might not want your audience to do anything after you’ve spoken. You might just have been there to entertain them. Or to present information, with no particular goal.

But if you want the audience to do something to change the world, to change their lives or to change their businesses, make sure to tell them. Be direct. Tell them what you want them to do. At very least, have them leave the room with that call to action as their last thought.

This is an important point you’ll want your speech writer to include.

Ideally, you can follow up your speech with some form of communication once they return to their natural habitats. Back in real life, a reminder of your message will be more effective even than closing your speech with a call to action.

How to perfect your speech

You’ve hired a professional speech writer. You have the speaking notes in front of you. How do you turn the written speech into that barn burner that brings the audience to its feet or moves them to tears?

• Be yourself.

Come prepared.

Speak to a mirror.

Record your voice.

Look them in the eye.

Volume speaks volumes.

• Practice, practice, practice.

Variety is the spice of public speaking.

Practice your speech.

No matter what you do, you’ll do it better after practicing. The more you practice, the better you’ll do it. That goes double for public speaking.

When you practice, make sure to vary your words slightly. Why? Because if you deliver the same line a dozen times, each time with a slightly different wording, here’s what you will memorize:

• the idea you want to communicate
• all the words you’ll need to express the idea
• not the exact words

The result is that the words will flow more naturally from your mouth. They will sound less memorized. You will be less dependent on staring at the paper in front of you, and more able to look at the people you are talking to.

Watch how you look when you speak. Make sure your mouth is moving. Keep your posture. Don’t fiddle with your hands. Practice emphatic gestures. We communicate a lot with our bodies, so make sure your body is communicating the same thing as your words.

After practicing for a while, record your voice. Play it back to see how you sound.

Make sure that people can hear you. With a microphone, that’s not an issue. But, will there be a microphone? It’s best to make sure.

Even with a microphone, some people don’t speak loud enough or clearly enough. If your audience has difficulty hearing you or understanding your words, they’ll find it even tougher to understand your message.

Loud is good. But not all the time. Sometimes, you need to raise your voice to a crescendo for emphasis. Other times, lowering your voice to almost a whisper will get their attention even better. You should do both.

You should also vary the pace of speaking. There are times for speaking fast. There are times for speaking slow. There are times to pause for emphasis, especially when you want the audience to think about a question you just asked or a new idea you have just suggested.

Make sure there is water at the lectern. You don’t want your speech hijacked by a dry throat.

The other thing you don’t want to happen during your speech is the sudden need to visit the washroom. Empty shortly before the speech.

When you speak with friends or colleagues, do you look over their heads? Of course not. Look people in the eye as you speak. You don’t have to look at any one person for more than a few seconds. Some speakers make eye contact with one person for a whole sentence, then switch to somebody else for the next sentence.

Be yourself…only better.

Most important is to be yourself. Let your personality shine through. Don’t try out humor from the podium that would not be your style in real life. Don’t adopt a speaking style at the lectern that is radically different than how you would explain things in a meeting room or church basement. Speechwriting is about putting you on paper, so that you can shine in person.

Kristina – satisfied maid of honor from Florida

This is amazing! Literally, more than anything I could have dreamed of! Thank you so much! It is perfect. Truly.

Rene – satisfied father-of-the-groom from Quebec

Well I have to thank you again and the speech was fantastic. As you can imagine the flow was great and must admit I did a pretty good job delivering our speech. I had it pretty well memorized so it did enable me to add in little events which made the audience chuckle. Both Kuno and his fiancée were very delighted and touched by the words.

I’m very happy that I decided to go with a “writer” service and very happy that you wrote the words.

Thank you again and should I need writing expertise in the future you can be assured I will be calling upon your services.

Writer, speechwriter, & educator with extensive experience in business, government, non-profits, and policy.

Actor and author Ben Stein calls him “a poet.” Michael Long is an accomplished writer, speechwriter, educator, and award-winning screenwriter and playwright. He is the co- or ghost-writer behind two non-fiction bestsellers, and has been published three times in Vital Speeches of the Day , twice for speeches he delivered. As director of writing for the graduate program in public relations at Georgetown University, he created the writing curriculum and teaches graduate courses in PR writing, speechwriting, and business and persuasive writing. He has led reading programs for children of migrant farm workers, taught remedial mathematics to adults, and delivered guest lectures on humor at American University and the Graduate School of Political Management at The George Washington University.

As a speaker and corporate educator, he has taught writing and speechwriting to audiences around the U.S. and in London, Lisbon, Panama, Saskatchewan, and The Hague. Most recently he was appointed resident writing coach for the Professional Speechwriters Association, which publishes “Prose for Pros,” his long-running weekly column on writing.

Mr. Long’s career as a writer began while he was a graduate student in physics at Vanderbilt University when he started performing comedy, eventually becoming a house emcee for one of the oldest comedy clubs in America. His first job as a writer off-stage was sole speechwriter to one of America’s highest-profile senators.

Mr. Long has written remarks for members of congress, U.S. cabinet secretaries, governors, diplomats, businessmen and women, CEOs, and presidential candidates. In addition, he has served as chief speechwriter for the largest trade association in the world, and contributes political and cultural commentary to numerous print publications and websites. His corporate and government education clients include Bechtel, Booz Allen Hamilton, The Panama Canal Authority, the Premier’s Office of the Government of Saskatchewan, Target Corporation, the United States Navy, and the speechwriting team for the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.

A provocative speaker and writing educator, he has appeared on CNBC and Good Day New York with Greg Kelly. He is also a commentator on CBC News: Morning with Heather Hiscox in Canada. Beyond his work in politics and policy, he has been consulted for material in The Onion and for Saturday Night Live .

In addition to writing on business and public policy, Mr. Long writes fiction, stage plays, and screenplays. He was a finalist for the Grand Prize for Screenwriting at the Slamdance Film Festival for his screenplay How to Save Your Own Life ; the script was also a Top 15 percent finisher for the Motion Picture Academy’s 2015 Nicholl Fellowship. In addition, How to Save … was chosen as a finalist at the Vail Film Festival, the Creative World Awards, and the World Series of Screenwriting. A stage version of the show was produced in a two-week run at Manhattan Repertory Theater. Mr. Long was also a semi-finalist for the Kairos Prize for his Christian screenplay The Joby Project , and he serves as story consultant to American Film Renaissance. He was most recently a finalist for the International Screenwriters Association Fast Track Fellowship for his historical thriller Henry Wallace .

As a playwright, nearly 20 of his one-acts have been festival selections around the nation, most often on New York City stages. He is a five-time winner of “best of festival” honors in the Players Theatre Short Play and Musical Festival in Greenwich Village; three times for the thrillers Hostages , Catchpole , and Details , and twice for the romantic comedies Brad Pitt and The Test .

Mr. Long holds a bachelor’s degree in physics and mathematics from Murray State University. His current projects include a commissioned screenplay and the co-writing of a book that uses neuroscience to explain common-but-curious human behaviors.

"…simple, logical, easy-to-follow advice for all writers."

"If you want a talk about speechwriting and expect a nice lecture about the ins and outs of basic speechwriting, don’t hire Mike Long. Because Mike does not go for the niceties and the clichés, he goes right to the gut, the underbelly of speechwriting."

"What truly sets him apart are his abilities and intuition as a teacher and trainer. He embodies the old writer’s maxim of showing instead of telling and in so doing is uniquely suited to help people tell powerful stories and sell compelling arguments on their own."

"Mike is the leader in leadership communication. The rest of us are acolytes."

"Mike Long is one of those rare birds whose vast writing skills are rivaled only by his knack for teaching his craft."

"The day after I sat in on Mike Long’s PR writing class, I applied the lesson the very next day at work and couldn’t wait to share the information with my colleagues."

"He is a walking lesson in effective rhetoric."

"I just wish I could clone him."

“A big thanks for coming to Lisbon to lead and deliver a two-day training course to all of our European communications leadership team. The seminar was highly engaging and entertaining, and all participants learned loads about how to prepare for and write an excellent speech. I look forward to seeing the results as the teams put in practice all that they learned.”

“I have attended Mike Long's speechwriting workshops and found them to be informative, thought-provoking and entertaining. Much like a good speech.”

“Mike Long came to London to deliver a training workshop. It proved very popular. And unlike other workshops, you didn’t just learn the skills, you learnt the strategy for getting a speech accepted within an organisation.”

"Mike Long is a prolific writer in many forms and one brilliant teacher of speechwriting—insightful, philosophical, personable, funny, and best in big doses. His personality is so large and compelling that it adds needed color to the camouflaged speechwriting industry.”
