"This is an unusual blog; the art of public speaking is crucial to politics and yet there's not much devoted to it specifically. This blog does, with posts combining accounts of the writer's recent engagements with some handy hints. Given some of the turgid speeches we're forced to suffer in the Commons, more MPs could do with reading it". politics.co.uk
"Nick spoke at our joint meeting with Kingston 41 Club. It was a brilliant evening. Nick is an engaging speaker, witty, topical and very interesting. He spoke for three quarters of an hour without notes, a most knowledgeable man. I cannot recommend Nick enough and can assure you that engaging him is a worthwhile endeavour. I wish you a great evening like ours". Manny Martins Vice Chairman of Hamble Valley Stick Club and 41 Club Regional Councillor, Region 24.
"Your speech to our 9 Rotary Clubs in North Surrey was much appreciated by me and I have received lots of feedback which was very positive about you. It was so refreshing to hear someone who has the wit to make us laugh throughout the evening without resort to 'blue' material and swearing. I do hope many others will get the chance to experience your talents". Howard Smith, Assistant Governor Area 1 Rotary District 1140.

Writing for Businesses
Although the vast majority of my writing over the past 26 years has been humorous material for broadcast, publication and live performance, I have also written some highly successful promotional material for local government and small businesses. Corporate Video Scripts I was commissioned by Bournemouth Borough Council to script the video which formed part of the town's winning entry in the highly prestigious European Entente Florale. This immediately led to a further commission, this time for a video script which helped Bournemouth achieve further successes in the Britain in Bloom and then Nations in Bloom competitions. If you need an experienced scriptwriter to write a tailor-made film for your company or simply edit an existing script then please contact me to discuss your requirements. Copywriting In addition to writing my own press releases, brochures and advertisements which have secured me numerous media appearances and hundreds of speaking engagements, training sessions and writing commissions, I have also had a great deal of experience in writing extremely effective promotional materials for small businesses, such as: A small cafe. A year after opening, it was still only attracting a handful of customers each day. After interviewing the owner and establishing its USP, I supplied advertorial for a local free paper. This resulted in dozens of new customers over the weeks following publication, many of whom became regulars. The business then traded successfully for many years until the owner finally retired. A recently-established day nursery. Once again, a carefully researched advertorial in the local press helped to fill all the available places. The proprietor later came back to me for brochure copy to help maintain this level of business and was once again delighted with the results. A very successful cabaret entertainer. He is still using a promotional piece I wrote for him in 1996! I can also ghost-write or edit articles for trade journals (I am a regular columnist for a trade magazine myself), write company histories or edit newsletters and reports. Full details of my speechwriting services can be found here. Please contact me to discuss your requirements for inexpensive but surprisingly effective business writing. Email: nickrthomas@gmail.com |
