Speech Writing & Coaching
<< back

Feeling anxious about your upcoming speech? Wondering how best to express what's on your mind? Pressed for time? Wishing someone could provide you with some additional research—and maybe some good writing and good advice as well?

Few things can improve the overall quality of your speech more than working with a professional speech writer. By focusing on the style, content, organization, and dynamism of your speech, our speech writer will help your next address come to life in a way you didn't think possible. And unlike the writers you could use from most PR agencies, the person you work with at CEI will truly be a professional speech writer — a Ph.D. from the #1 program in the field, with fifteen years of practical experience under his belt. At CEI, we put this talent at your disposal so that your ideas can be expressed as clearly and persuasively as possible — with just a little sizzle for emphasis!

Each individual speaking situation is unique, and so our speechwriter will work with you to accommodate your special needs. However, most of our clients tend to feel comfortable with a 3-3 format: three interviews, and three speech drafts. Through the course of the three interviews, you will discuss with our speech writer your forthcoming speaking engagement, your audience, your concerns, and your ideas for the speech. Then he will write a speech to match your special situation, incorporating your feedback and ideas into each successive draft. He will even do some additional research for your speech, when appropriate. By the third draft, you will have a speech carefully tailored to meet the special demands of the unique speaking situation that you will be entering, and crafted to reflect your concerns and your speaking style.

Our speech writer, Dr. Lee Cerling, is so popular that professionals who have worked with him tend to come back as often as possible. Dr. Cerling works with individuals who are new to public speaking as well as with seasoned professionals and those who find themselves somewhere in between.

And if you're looking for support in delivering your speech, CEI's professional speech coaches are at your service. Through an intensive, hands-on, positive approach, they can put the final touch on your great speech. Look for our information sheet Presentation Coaching Program™: Speaking Like a “Pro”.

The fee for a 3-3 format speech is pro-rated according to the length of the speech (one speech minute = one hour of preparation @ $195/hr.). With this formula, a 30-minute speech is $5,850, and a 15-minute speech is $2,975. The minimum fee for any speech is $1,500.
