Your speech is written. You’re happy with the content. And you’re now coming to grips with the logistics of delivering it.
Will there be a microphone?
Will you be speaking from the table or a stage?
Should you use prompt cards
My advice for the inexperienced speaker is that prompt cards are invaluable for a number of reasons:

They break the speech up into manageable chunks
The large font is easy to read
You can highlight words that bring the speech to life
They slow you down
Each card can finish with a natural pause
Card doesn’t shake as noticeably as paper if you get nervous

I am happy to arrange for your speech to be professionally typeset and posted to you (irrespective of whether I have written it). The cost for the entire process is £20 including UK delivery.

"It went terrifically well. Absolutely excellent both in terms of what you said and how it was presented. I think that new business could roll-in as a direct result"

Neil T, May 2009

"I've read the speech this morning and I've been laughing out aloud to it! Its fantastic, it really is! I've grown more in love with the speech the more I've read it. Its fantastic. I'm especially grateful for the guidance on where to place emphasis, where to pause etc. You're a truly awesome writer! A great listener."

Andrew K, Feb 2009

"Lawrence, during the first reading, I laughed in places, had tears in my eyes in others, and generally had a goose-bumpy feeling - which must mean it's good. In fact, I think it's absolutely brilliant!"
