Thanks for visiting Great Speech Writing. I’m based in London along with a small team whose sole focus is to help you write and deliver a speech that I would be proud to give myself.

Whether you’re being paid to speak professionally or are nervously planning your first speech at a wedding, the same five key principles apply. It’s all about:

1. Making your speech relevant to your audience
2. Being original wherever possible
3. Delivering your key message as clearly as possible
4. Using as few words as possible
5. Sprinkling your words with a little magic to ensure that people remember it for all the right reasons

Our service is entirely discreet and personal. There’s no point writing you a speech that people don’t believe you wrote yourself. And we won’t tell them you didn’t!

That’s why we don’t send samples of existing client work, and why we operate on a basis of trust that means we won’t charge you a penny until you have received a speech from us that you like.

If you’re after text-heavy, over-technical business prose, recycled, cheesy wedding gags, or re-usable templates, you’re in the wrong place. We write every word of every speech from scratch and pride ourselves on each being unique.

This site is designed to reflect our clients’ two core types of speech:

1.  The Social Speech:Those of you preparing speeches for social events. These include best man speeches, groom speeches, father of the bride speeches and a wide range of after dinner speeches at golf clubs, birthday parties, Burns Dinners, fund-raisers and reunions.
2. The Professional SpeechPeople looking for help writing speeches and presentations professionally. These include an eclectic mix of business and conference speeches, pitch presentations, political speeches (on behalf of the three largest parties in Westminster and a number of international organisations), NGO and charity work and script-writing for the after-dinner circuit.

Some clients have called with six months to spare, others with four hours to go; some want to meet up first, others want coaching afterwards; some live round the corner, others ten thousand miles away; quite a few did everything by email and we’ve never even spoken. Whether you’re worrying about anything from after dinner speeches to business pitches we can write for you, edit for you and train you to deliver with the impact your new content deserves.

I look forward to your call.
