Charismatic Speeches Written from Under 48 Hours

March 17, 2009 at 2:11 pm 2 comments

Do you remember that in classical times when Cicero had finished speaking, the people said, “How well he spoke”, but when Demosthenes had finished speaking, they said, “Let us march.”

Adlai Stevenson, 1900-65: Introducing John F. Kennedy in 1960; Bert Cochran Adlai Stevonson (1969)

Once upon a time, in a land called the United States of America, there was one young lad who captivated the imaginations, hopes and dreams of the torn American people. But alas, that young lad never got the chance to unite his brethren. To see his country succeed, he paid a heavy price – he paid with his life. Cicero and Demosthenes are alien names. Not many Malaysians have heard of the two men of the Ancient Western World. But today’s world aren’t missing people like the two:

  • John F. Kenendy, Former U.S. President;
  • Winston Churchill, Former British Prime Minister;
  • Tun Dr. Mahathir Mohamad, Former Malaysian Prime Minister;
  • Barrack H. Obama, President of the United States of America.

While I cannot control how you deliver your speech – why should I? I’d rather adapt the text to you! – I can draw up the text which would radiate the charismatic jive you need to keep your audience on the edge.

 

Attention! If you are listed below, you will need my speechwriting service

For more reasons than one, speechwriters are an essential group of people any PR agency, company and individuals would need to have on call. Why? Speechwriters are professionals who dedicate their time to write the text. Since they constantly write speeches, they would know what they’re doing than amateurs and non-professionals. The more practice they get over the years, the better their efficiency and ability. But let’s not rule out the fact that they must remain as dynamic as possible to give the speeches an identity, a life on its own on paper.

But who exactly needs my service? The list includes, but is not limited to, the following:-

  • Local politicians;
  • Business figures;
  • Community leaders;
  • Members of Parliament;
  • Members of the State Legislative Assemblies;
  • Members of the Board of Directors;
  • Chambers of Commerce;
  • Business groups;
  • PR agencies;
  • Anyone and everyone who make regular presentations in public!

 

Why hire Aldric Tinker?

Here are the ten reasons why you should engage me to write your speeches:

  1. Specialist writer – Speechwriting is my specialisation. I dedicate time, energy and money to constantly update myself with the latest and most pragmatic techniques and principles of speechwriting.
  2. Legal background – From November 2004, I received my legal education from Universiti Teknologi MARA.
  3. Infusion of Youth – Generations X and Y are entering the workforce. As Baby Boomers take the reins of the country, the people you need to attract are those 40 years and below. With the development of ICT, the latter generations are more informed and have a different level of thinking. What you need is someone who can adapt quickly to these audiences so you can deliver the best speech.
  4. Experienced – Yes, I have written speeches for Parliament. Twice were they delivered in the Dewan Negara. Now I am offering this service to beyond the four walls of that august chamber.
  5. Trilingual – Besides English, I can write both in Bahasa Malaysia and Bahasa Iban. The speeches to Parliament were written in the national language. Don’t expect all the words to be factual! They’re sprinkled with proverbs, idioms and peribahasa.
  6. Efficient – I don’t believe in keeping my clients waiting. Thus, I aim to finish the job as soon as I get the order. Depending on the length of your speech, you can check out the timeframe I need to complete based on the table below. On top of that, I believe in utilising the Internet: it saves time, money and energy. If you really need to talk, I recommend calling. Why waste precious time?
  7. High Adaptability – The person who delivers the speech is you or your boss or your client, not me. Because of that, the speech should reflect his or her style. Whether citing the Law, statistics or religious text to preferring full text or speech points, I adapt fast and well to these details. Certainly I don’t subscribe to the syok sendiri/self-absorbed style of writing.
  8. Resourceful – I have a collection of resources I need to execute the project. Where I cannot or do not have the knowledge, I would consult my references to ensure that the speech tallies and conforms to the context.
  9. Value for Money – I charge by Ringgit Malaysia (RM)/Malaysian Ringgit (MYR). You may commission me from Singapore, Australia, Canada, the United States, the United Kingdom, South Africa etc., but the price remains the same. What about the fluctuation in exchange rates? Pay in the price stated in the invoice. Your invoice will include a price in your currency, having the exact or rounded value.
  10. Result and Audience Oriented – Sure, anyone can write, what more draft a speech. However there is a line drawn where orientation is concerned. You get the script prepared to achieve a result, the result you want. Adding to that, the speech should appeal to your audience while complying to your own personal values and principles. How many are willing to go that extra nautical mile? You already know I am.

 

What are the Numbers?

Experienced speechwriters carry a hefty price tag. Why? If these guys were doctors, they would be considered brain surgeons – not many are in the market, and not all are freelancers. Usually they are in-house or full time employees.

When your project falls under the specific category, you can almost instantly get the price. Speech minutes refer to the amount of time allocated to the speaker you’d like written. Let the following table illustrate:-

Speech Minutes:

Completion Within

Rates

Under 20 minutes 48 hours / 2 working days RM150 per speech minute
10 to 40 Minutes 72 hours / 3 working days RM125 per speech minute
Over 40 minutes 170 hours / 5 working days RM100 per speech minute
