Greetings Friends,
Attending the Loan Signing System Conference in San Diego was a game-changer for me.
I walked away with valuable insights, fresh motivation, and direct knowledge from some of the most successful signing service owners in the industry.
If you're wondering how to become a preferred notary for high-end signing services, let me share what I learned.
1. Take Immediate Action on What You Learn
One of the biggest takeaways from the conference was the importance of taking action immediately. When you attend training, hear from successful notaries, or get new business strategies, write them down and implement them immediately. Success moves fast, and those who act on what they learn will always be ahead.
For example, after the conference, I stepped out of my comfort zone and contacted almost every million-dollar signing service owner that I networked with. Those conversations alone shifted my mindset about the way I approach my business.
2. Focus on Service, Not Just Money
One of the most successful signing service owners I met emphasized that focusing on service over money leads to higher earnings. It sounds simple, but it's a major shift in thinking. When you focus on providing top-tier service, clients will return, referrals will increase, and your income will naturally grow.
Here’s how you can focus on service:
✅ Confirm appointments quickly – Don’t wait! Be proactive in reaching out to signers and escrow officers.
✅ Be professional and reliable – Signing services and title companies need notaries they can trust to get the job done right.
✅ Don’t nickel-and-dime clients – If a package is larger than expected, handle it professionally instead of immediately asking for more money.
3. Over-Communicate Like a Pro
If you want to stand out and become a preferred notary, over-communicate with your clients and signing services. Many notaries hesitate to reach out, but clear and proactive communication is a sign of professionalism.
💡 What should you communicate?
- If the signing is running longer than expected, let the signing service or escrow agent know.
- If there’s a mistake in the documents (like a misspelled name or wrong county), speak up immediately.
- If you’re unfamiliar with a form, ask questions to avoid delays.
Signing services appreciate notaries who keep them in the loop, and this is one of the easiest ways to gain their trust.
4. Build Relationships Through Networking
One of the most rewarding parts of the conference was meeting ambitious and successful notary entrepreneurs. I connected with a million-dollar signing service owner from the Maryland/DC area who has a goal to earn $10 million this year.
💡 What did I learn? If you want to grow, you must network with people who are ahead of you.
Here’s how to start building relationships:
✅ Follow signing agencies on LinkedIn, Instagram, and Facebook. Engage with their content.
✅ Attend notary meetups in your area to connect with signing services and experienced notaries.
✅ Introduce yourself to signing services via phone calls—don’t wait for them to find you!
The more visible you are, the more opportunities you’ll attract.
5. Smart Business Strategies for New Notaries
For new signing agents, getting started can feel overwhelming, but the key is to market yourself the right way.
🚫 What NOT to do: Spend money on pay-per-click ads hoping to land clients.
✅ What TO do: Build a strong social media presence and networking strategy.
Start by:
📌 Engaging on social media – Like, comment, and interact with signing services online.
📌 Providing excellent customer service – Word of mouth will work in your favor.
📌 Attending local meetups – Surround yourself with experienced notaries and learn from them.
6. Invest in Mentorship & Training
One thing I always emphasize is that mentorship can fast-track your success. Whether it's through a webinar, online course, or direct coaching, investing in the right knowledge can help you avoid costly mistakes.
That’s why I created resources to help notaries understand how to grow their business the right way. If you're serious about taking your notary career to the next level, check out my mentorship and training programs for step-by-step guidance.
