It is one of the main ways a persuasive speech differs from an informative speech. The call to action is what you want the audience to think or do as a result of hearing your speech. For example, instead of saying you want the audience to “call your legislators,” say, “I want you to contact your state legislators about House Bill 123. This website will help you find out who your legislators are and their email addresses and phone numbers.” The call to action can be your last main point or in the conclusion of your speech.
