Speech Writing Service - A Script Written for the Ear, Priced at $0.12 per Word

Speech writing service: what arrives, when, and what it costs

A speech writing services order starts with your occasion, audience, and time slot, and the price is set before any writing starts: $0.12 per word, plus 40% only if the script is due in under 12 hours. What arrives is a script formatted for delivery, marked with pauses and emphasis, plus a timed read-through length so you know it fits your slot before you rehearse it once. GradeDraft's research paper desk also writes a slide deck with speaker notes when your assignment needs both a script and slides; this page covers the spoken script alone, including a teleprompter-ready version on request.

Speeches we write

Class assignments and school occasions come through the same desk, priced the same way, per word. Private-event speeches are outside this service.

Class speeches: informative, persuasive and demonstrative

An informative speech explains a topic without arguing for a position; a persuasive speech argues for one and is often built on Monroe's Motivated Sequence, the five-step structure (attention, need, satisfaction, visualization, action) many public-speaking rubrics grade against. A demonstrative speech walks the audience through doing something, step by step, in the order they'd actually do it. Each type gets its rubric items named in the script: a clear thesis stated early, verbal signposting between points, and sources cited aloud where the assignment requires it. If the talk presents a case you analyzed, the written analysis is a separate case study writing order.

Graduation, valedictorian and commencement speeches

A graduation speech writer works from your own stories and your class's shared experience, not a generic template with your school's name dropped in. A valedictorian speech or commencement speech often has a slot of 5 to 10 minutes set by the school, and what makes it land is a clear arc from where the class started to where it is headed next.

Award, scholarship and student-government speeches

Shorter occasions, usually 1 to 3 minutes, still need a structure: one clear ask or one clear thank-you, a specific detail that makes it yours rather than generic, and a close that lands before the time runs out. A student-government campaign speech usually adds one more requirement a class speech doesn't: a concrete platform point stated early enough that an audience remembers it after the speech ends, not buried in the closing seconds.

How many words is a 5-minute speech, and what does it cost

How much does it cost to hire a speech writer is really two questions: how long is the speech, and how many words does that length need. Both answers are below.

Minutes to words at 130 words per minute

This table assumes 130 words per minute, a conversational pace. A slower speaker runs closer to 110 words per minute, and a faster one closer to 150, so treat the row as a starting point and confirm your own pace with a timed read-through once the script arrives. There is no slide-count column here; slides are priced on the presentation page. The full rate card is on the price list.

Worked examples

5-minute persuasive class speech: 650 words × $0.12 = $78.00. 10-minute commencement speech: 1,300 words × $0.12 = $156.00.

Hire a speech writer: what you send us

A speech writer for hire works faster and closer to your voice with more input, not less. If your request is simply "write my speech for me," send these with it:

The single most useful thing you can send is a two-minute voice memo of yourself talking through the topic in your own words. It's how the finished script ends up sounding like you instead of like a template with your name typed in.

Who writes your speech

A professional speech writer on GradeDraft's research paper desk writes your script, working from your brief and your voice memo rather than a stock structure reused across every order. We don't publish writer names or star credits. Instead, any speechwriter for hire on the desk shows you a sample paragraph in your topic before you pay, and the writers page explains how the desk works.

A composite sample: a 60-second opening with delivery marks

Here is a composite opening for a graduation speech, written for the ear with delivery marks built in, plus three notes. It is not a client's speech.

Write my speech: from brief to rehearsal-ready script in four steps

Nothing is paid upfront. Once you approve the final script, a Stripe invoice (card or bank transfer) arrives, and only then. That is the whole process for speech writing help, and the how it works page shows it in more detail. If the paper your talk is drawn from still needs writing, the paper your talk is based on can be ordered the same way.

After delivery: revisions, timing check, confidentiality

Your revision window is 14 days after delivery, at no extra charge. Read the script aloud once it arrives and time yourself: if your read runs long or short against your slot, send us the timing and the trim or extension is a revision, not a new order. If the script still misses your brief after a revision and can't be fixed inside the window, a refund review opens instead of a further attempt.
