Events / DECA
Roleplays work a case. Selling stays with a buyer. Prepared campaigns present a plan. SpeakNow follows the event you pick, not a one-size sealed roleplay.

Roleplay, selling, and prepared campaigns are different rooms. A selling student is not promised a sealed roleplay packet. Named events keep their own case, buyer, or campaign.
Each performance indicator is its own line. Name it, apply it to this customer or firm, then move. Generic business talk that ignores the prompt loses points fast.
Analysis without a recommendation is incomplete. End on what you would do, why it fits this situation, and what happens next.
Judges probe the holes. SpeakNow asks follow-ups based on what you actually said, then writes a report you can run again.
Starter weights for this format. Paste the real sheet if you have it.
Did you hit the official list, by name, applied to this case.
Would this answer work for any prompt, or only this customer and constraint.
One clear next step, with a reason the judge can score.
Role language, structure, and a close inside the clock.
If a sentence could apply to any case, it is too generic. Name the customer, the constraint, or the number in the prompt.
Judges score faster when they hear the criterion. Name it, then apply it.
That path is the event. Vocabulary should match the role, not a classroom recitation.
Pick the named event. Roleplay sittings work a case and indicators. Selling stays with a buyer. Prepared campaigns present a plan. Speak out loud, take judge questions, and read a scored report. Replace the starter sheet with your official event rubric when you have it.
No. SpeakNow is not affiliated with DECA Inc. Scores are practice guidance, not competitive results.
Yes. Paste or upload the scoring sheet you will actually be judged on. The panel uses that sheet instead of the starter template.
The clock follows the event you pick. The directory template starts at ten minutes for unnamed practice. Change it before you start. Selling and campaigns are not forced into a sealed roleplay window.
