Establish credibility in writing persuasive speech.

In a persuasive speech, the speaker attempts to convince his audience of a particular point of view or the desirability of a particular course of action. Successful persuasive speaking involves appeals to emotions, logical arguments and the establishment of credibility. Credibility, in this context, can be defined as the power to elicit belief in what the speaker is saying and trust in the speaker himself.

Discuss your experience. You will be a much more credible speaker if you can demonstrate significant experience with the particular topic or subject matter of your discussion. For example, a patent attorney with 15 years of professional experience would be a very credible speaker on the topic of intellectual property law. If you do not have a great deal of experience relating to your particular topic, don't lie about your experience. Make up for your lack of experience using the other methods in this article.

Use authorities and cite your factual statements. Whenever you are making a factual assertion, particularly one that is central to your argument, be sure to cite reliable, authoritative sources for that information. Don't leave your audience guessing where you got your information or whether you simply made it up.

Have a mandate for providing your opinion. Audiences can be skeptical of speakers. Why should they listen to your opinion? If at all possible, explain why you are speaking to the audience. Did someone ask you to come speak based on your experience? Did you recently complete a research project related to the speech? Whatever the reason, share it for the audience if it will contribute to your legitimacy.

Be specific. When making assertions to your audience, whether as the ultimate issue of your speech or as a supporting element, be as specific as you can. For example, it is much more credible to say " 35 out of every 1, 000 children born in this city will spend at least five years in the state penitentiary" than it is to say " lots of children born in this city will go to the state penitentiary." Specificity tells the audience you have done your homework and know exactly what you are talking about.

2. The differences between an informative speech and persuasive speech.

• An informative speech aims to inform the audience about a specific topic.
• A persuasive speech aims to persuade the audience to perform a certain action or convince the audience to adopt the belief or opinion of the speaker.
• Many speeches will combine features of informative and persuasive speeches.
• Know the audience: the types of knowledge they possess, the core beliefs they hold, and what motivates them to undertake actions.
• Considering the purpose of the speech will help determine if the speech should use more of the features of informative or persuasive speeches.

1. Introduction

Tells your audience what you are going to tell them and establishes the foundation for your speech. A good Introduction 'draws the map' for the journey. For a Persuasive Speech, an Introduction consists of...

1. Attention-Getter: A statement, visual or sound (or combination) that startles, gains attention and makes your audience sit up.

2. Bond: Link-to Audience: Identify a personal connection in the audiences’ life, eg their use of the ‘device’ or system, or their emotional experience (grief and sorrow, happiness). 3. " Credentials" of Speaker (Credibility): Demonstrate how you are an ‘expert’ through your own use, experience or study.

4. Destination / Objective Sentence: State clearly why you are speaking at this moment. State your Goal, Thesis or what you expect as an Outcome.

State your Destination. An example may be.. “This evening/today I am here to convince you that.... is the most effective way to do business today"

5. Explain your Map to your Destination: Speech Preview: Briefly outline what you will cover in your persuasive speech.

" This is where you will... " “Tell what you are going to tell them” Transition: A transition is how you move from one section or point to the next. It is a linking idea. You could say … “Let’s begin by...”, “Let’s start with...” or I prefer “Let’s consider …”

2. Nonverbal communication involves numerous elements, such as gestures, intonation, proximity, volume, word choice, eye contact and many others.

Facial expressions: The facial expressions you use during communication affect how the listener interprets your meaning. Extreme facial expressions, such as those that indicate anger or happiness, indicate that you have obvious feelings about your subject matter. Less obvious facial expressions, such as raising one eyebrow slightly or scrunching your face, may impart a variety of meanings, depending on context. For example, if you scrunch your face during a conversation, the other person might think you find something displeasing about the subject matter. If you scrunch your face when there is no conversation going on, an observer might think you are displeased about something nearby, such as a smell.

Body posture: How and where you stand is an important element of nonverbal communication. For example, leaning toward a speaker indicates intense interest. Frequently looking away from the speaker indicates disinterest or impatience. The meaning of different body stances and positions varies among cultures, according to Andrews University. For example, in Thailand, showing someone the soles of your feet is offensive. Slouching or hunching over is disrespectful in Northern European cultures. In Turkey, putting your hands in your pockets is rude.

Gestures: Every culture has hand movements and gestures that convey specific meanings, according to Andrews University. Some hand movements are innocuous in one culture but aggressive or insulting in another. For example, people in some cultures, such as the United States, use their index fingers to point. But in many Asian cultures, pointing with the fingers is rude.

Paralanguage: Paralanguage is the culture-specific stylistic element that people use while speaking. Andrews University breaks paralanguage down into three groups: vocal characterizers, vocal qualifiers and vocal segregates. Vocal characterizers include things like yawning, laughing, crying and moaning, which convey meanings to an audience. Vocal qualifiers include such elements as tone, tempo, rhythm, pitch and volume. For example, speaking rapidly and in a high pitch indicates excitement in many cultures. Vocal segregates include such sounds as “uh-uh” or “mmmm, ” noises which convey messages about internal feelings, such as dissent or pleasure.

1. Persuasive and informative speeches are not alike but they have common structure that we have to follow to build a powerful one. One of the most significant common features of informative speech and persuasive speech is a Hook. To hook, grab the audience’s attention you should use someone’s story (informative speech) and the fact (persuasive speech). Ask the audience a question. So it gives them a feeling that they are a part of a conversation/discussion.

Another common feature of these speeches is that both of the speeches have body part. In informative speech you provide explanations of your problem and in persuasive speech you offer evidence. Finally, both kinds of speeches have conclusion. So they differ according to the type of the speech, e.g. persuasive speech – providing solutions, informative – explain the importance of the issue.

2. There’s no surprise that Barack Obama is the world most powerful speaker. In his 2004’s speech he followed one pattern. To be exact, he used 5 techniques. 1. He used story line in his speech (“My father was born and raised in small village in Kenya”). 2. Antithesis (One America – The United States of America); 3. Rhetoric questions (“Do we participate in…”) 4. Miming, gestures; 5. Repetition (he repeats the word “America” 4 times and “hope” 7 times) Also, he was born with two great gifts – mind and ability to speak to a large group of people. Besides, his appearance is really matters. He is full of energy, dynamic, solemn, reserved.

2. A thesis statement usually appears near the end of the introductory paragraph of a paper, and it offers a concise solution to the issue being addressed. It states the claim of the argument presented in a paper, and sometimes a brief summary of all explained reasons in the paper. A thesis statement is usually one sentence, though it may occur as more than one.

A thesis statement is a short statement that summarizes the main point or claim of an essay, research paper, etc., and is developed, supported, and explained in the text by means of examples and evidence. Whatever piece of work in which the thesis statement is being used, it should always adhere to the guidelines governed by its school of thought.

1. The Conclusion (The Concluding Sentence) The concluding, or final, sentence of a paragraph usually reminds the reader of the topic and controlling idea of the paragraph. The concluding sentence restates the main idea. For example, “I love color red” – is a topic sentence. Concluding sentence may be – “I like to live life in a strong way, so I think I will always admire the color red”. In addition to restating the main idea, the concluding sentence may:

• Warn the reader. If you do not follow these steps, you may not get the grade that you want.

• Make a prediction. The automotive industry will change, and soon everyone will be driving pollution-free cars.

• Give an opinion about the topic. Some people might disagree, but I think lamb is the best meat for grilling.

2. Attention getters may include: 1.A story about your own life; 2.Question; 3.Quotation.

Tell a Joke or a Funny Anecdote. Start your presentation with a funny anecdote or joke to immediately get your audience's attention. Do this only if the humor fits your audience and the situation. Be tactful and cognizant of your audience when using humor.

Compare and contrast. Compare and contrast subjects that are interesting to the audience. If you use a comparison that is relevant to your audience, you will gain their attention. As an example, if your speech is about self-motivation, you can compare your methods of self-motivation to how local athletic team members motivate themselves. If you have a recording of a locally known personality answering your questions, you will immediately engage your audience.

Project your voice. A strong resonant and confident voice is always an attention getter. Record yourself speaking and raise your volume a few notches if you find that you're coming across as passive or timid. Be enthusiastic and passionate about your topic. If you find that the subject matter of your speech is boring to you, add in pieces that you can talk about with enthusiasm.
