I had my first one on Friday and when I asked where they found me they also said Notary Cafe - waaaaaaaay better than any other platform I’m signed up with!

@russ Congratulations!
Hope you were able to Research via the Notary Cafe database to vet your client prior to providing your professional services.

Notary Cafe is an Excellent Directory 
to list your Business Entity/Professional Signing Services in order for potential clients to locate your services!
It’s such a great Return on Investment [ROI]

Unfortunately, some mistakenly think the Notary Cafe platform provides Signing Orders [SOs], which they do not.

Ahhh, yes, I remember my first signing. It was a refi for a nice young woman who was so excited about closing here deal, right in the early days of Covid 19. I showed up all polished up and ready and nervous as could be. I gulped at the front door, introduced myself and tried to be as professional as possible. It all went smooth and quick and I got that first one under my belt. Wow, was I relieved.
Mind you, I was a fraud investigator for years and testified in court about bad guys all the time. I was a PRO. Never nervous or unprepared. Somehow, none of that mattered on my first notarization. But I quickly acclimated and got faster and better as I learned more about how this all works. So too, will this happen for all you new notaries. Hang in there, continue to study, develop your skills and approach, always be professional. You’ll be fine.

Thank you. I hate to admit it, but I was so excited to get my first signing from one of the platforms I didn’t. Contact was a direct text to me personally, not one of the “broadcast/blast” texts that come out all the time!
@russ You’re Welcome!
Thank You for returning to the forum & providing us with your update!
It’s understandable that you were unable to Research via the Notary Cafe database to vet your client prior to providing your professional services.
It’s truly one of the BEST techniques to ensure payment for the professional services you’ve successfully provided!

Hopefully, you’ve performed a bit of Research since then & have gathered more helpful data about that business entity!
