Why Hire Mary Korica as Your Speechwriter?

Are you speaking at a conference? At a town hall? Will you be addressing your professional peers or motivating your workforce? Are you launching an important initiative, or commemorating an anniversary or milestone? Are you speaking at a wedding? Giving a eulogy or a toast? Or introducing a guest speaker?

You may have a speech to deliver and are unsure where to start or what approach to take. Or you may know what you want to say but need help crafting it into speech form. Whatever the situation, I can help you arrive at the speech you need.

Speeches are about storytelling while achieving one or more purposes beyond keeping your audience engaged. To be successful, a speech must accomplish your goals while matching your personal style as well as the context, setting and audience. It must present ideas in a concise and direct manner that is a step removed from other communication formats.

Choose an experienced professional with high-level training and a broad knowledge base. I appreciate that your time and your audience’s time are extremely valuable. I can help you craft your message and accomplish your goals, efficiently, effectively, and confidentially. Contact me today.
