When preparing your persuasive speech, make sure you can answer yes to the following questions.
1. Are all my major claims/arguments supported by evidence?
2. Do I use sufficient evidence to convince my audience of my claims?
3. Is my evidence stated in specific rather than general terms?
4. Do I use evidence that is new and novel to my audience?
5. Is my evidence from credible, unbiased sources?
6. Do I identify the sources of my evidence?
7. Is my evidence clearly linked to each point that it is meant to prove?
8. Do I provide enough evidence to answer possible objections the audience may have to my position?
