| There comes a dramatic time in the life of a
person, party, organization or nation that cries for the uplift
and release of a speech. Someone steps forward to
articulate the pride, hope or grief of it all. The speaker
becomes the center of attention and the world stops to listen.
Listeners often complain that speeches sound like they came off
an assembly line like cans of Spam. Too many speakers
summarize their experience as "I came, I spoke, I flopped."
There is no secret to speaking well. You do not have to
be born at a dais to resonate with you audience. It take
knowledge, practice and the use of proven techniques. We
at Faulkner & me understand those techniques. Often, we
became acquainted with them the hard way. Our experience
works to your benefit.
Faulkner & me will arm you with a script that suits the
occasion. A message the audience expects, tempered by what
you want them to hear. Our expertise will change your view
of your next speaking engagement from a burden to an
opportunity.
Writing a speech is difficult work. There are no
magical formulas or fail-proof techniques. The vital
catalyst is a desire to say something important. Speakers
are most successful when they talk about that small cluster of
ideas that matter to them.
Faulkner & me will help you find that gem. We will
weave it into an oration that contains a stirring introduction,
a workman-like middle and a rousing conclusion. Perhaps,
if fitting, we will add a smile or two along the way.
