Who provides speechwriting services at OPG Coaching in London?

Speechwriting at OPG Coaching is led by Octavia Phoebe Gilmore. Octavia has crafted speeches for industry leaders, politicians and nervous best men. She has worked as a copywriter, written critically acclaimed plays and performs as an improv comedian. Her background in storytelling, combined with her experience working with people across many different industries, helps her write speeches that connect and persuade.

What types of speeches can OPG Coaching write for me?

OPG Coaching provides speechwriting support for a wide range of speaking engagements, including conference talks, presentations, pitches, debates, keynotes, workshops, after-dinner speeches, special occasions and weddings. Each speech is tailored to your audience, objectives, and personal style, helping you communicate your message clearly, confidently, and effectively.

How does the OPG Coaching speechwriting process work?

The process is designed around what suits you best. You can collaborate with Octavia in person or on video call, allowing for real-time discussion, refinement and creative input. Alternatively, Octavia can work independently, writing, rewriting or polishing your existing material before providing a draft for your review.

Can I access OPG Coaching's speechwriting services online?

Yes. OPG Coaching's speechwriting services are fully available online, making them accessible to clients anywhere in the world. The process is entirely flexible: you can collaborate live with Octavia on a video call, have her work independently on your material, or combine both approaches.

Can we work in person?

Yes. Octavia is based in London and regularly works with clients in person. Face-to-face sessions take place in a central London studio or at your workplace. Outside of in-person sessions, Octavia can work independently on your material, or you can continue to collaborate over video call. The process is built around your preferred way of working.

Is professional speechwriting only for politicians and executives?

Not at all. While OPG Coaching works with industry leaders and politicians, speechwriting support is equally valuable for anyone facing an important speaking moment, whether that is a first-time conference speaker, a founder pitching investors, or a thought leader sharing their expertise through a workshop or course. Octavia has even helped debaters win competitions and helped people find the right words for their nearest and dearest. Often, the challenge is not a lack of ideas but having too many. Many people struggle to find the time, distance or clarity needed to turn what they know into something an audience genuinely wants to hear. Octavia acts as an experienced outside perspective, helping uncover what you really want to say, structure your thinking and find the right words to express yourself.
