**No.**

**Notary Cafe** is a **Directory** that also contains a Forum with priceless information contained within their database.

This information has been generously contributed by myriad business owners/fellow Professional Signing Agents [PSAs] across the United States.

.

**Truly,** launching a business within this business sector of the industry (_like many entrepreneurial businesses_) is a **slog** to get things going regarding SOs. Definitely _NOT A SPRINT_, but definitively is a **MARATHON!**

The YouTube videos hawking “it’s _ **EASY PEASY** _ to make $100K/year” has been **debunked** repeatedly . . .

Unfortunately, folks do still decide to “invest” in the used car salesman tactics of bait & switch! They tell you if you’re not receiving SOs to just launch a Signing Service & you’ll be living in a McMansion next week . . .

_ **UGH!!** _

.

This segment of the business industry has been in a _ **strong downward spiral** _ regarding volume of SOs and _ **increasingly LOWER** _ fees for many **years** , but especially since ‘_post-COVID-19,_’ etc.

I and the other sages on the **Notary Cafe** forum regularly endeavor to help new forum members **grasp the reality** of the unadulterated truth of the current state of this business sector - _ **myriad variables in the financial & real estate markets are negatively affecting this industry.** _

Here is a **Notary Cafe** **[thread](http://forum.notarycafe.com/t/the-unadulterated-truth-about-this-business-sector-with-no-showboating-grandstanding-or-hot-dogging/50547)** regarding this that will prove quite helpful!

.

Also, _just wondering_ if by any chance were you able to locate this immediately available information found within the **Notary Cafe** database on this particular topic?

This information is a **TREASURE TROVE**!

Most members express that they find it _ **difficult/NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE to locate** _ the **Search**  **Function** in order to access the wealth of information available within the database that has been _ **generously** _ contributed by **your sagacious fellow business owners** over the years . . .

To be helpful, I’ve inserted an image for you & others [_see below_] to help members locate it to unlock the wisdom & knowledge of other members on the forums.

I’ve performed a cursory **Search** on your behalf and the results show a **[Listing](http://forum.notarycafe.com/search?q=%27signing%20orders%27%20order%3Alatest)** of **50+ separate** threads (_in addition to yours_) about this particular topic. There is a plethora of data immediately available on the threads within **Notary Cafe.** ✨🌷

Signings from this site are random, at best. I wouldn’t depend on it if I were you. I have received calls from companies that found me here, but to be honest, it’s few and far between. Your best bet is to sign up with platforms like Snapdocs and Signing Order.

Notary Cafe is a notary public directory, not a signing platform.

People do a search for a notary in their area (using the “[FIND A NOTARY](https://notarycafe.com/find-a-notary)” search function) and then they contact you directly for their signing needs.

You will only know you got hired as a result of your Notary Cafe listing if you ask them how they found you, or if they volunteer that they found you via Notary Cafe.

Well, for general notary work, yes. However, if a notary attempts to sign up with a title company or signing service, and that company uses the NC database, the notary will get a message that they’re all signed up due to their profile here. It’s, basically, a hidden platform only for companies’ access to notary signing agents…not for handling of docs or fees, a la SnapDocs, etc.
