I do so much better with GNW than with Signing Agent. I do not have to pay for toner or paper, and have headaches about signers and the like. No more issues dealing with SS companies since they are not paying on time as I can recall.
The only companies who will pay on time are Amrock usually every two weeks, and Notary Go every two weeks as well. Most are not paying on a 30 day net anymore.
I am successful with GNW here in Vegas due in part to my reputation of Google, plus repeat business. I’m excited that next year I can have more work with the Federal Government as a notary once my contract is approved from them next month. I was updated on my contract with them and look forward to another way to make notary money other real estate which is not sound.
I found a client of mine who is a Federal employee so his connections were abundant in allowing me to tap this market. Imagine notarizing for government employees and agencies all over the USA. This was a goldmine, and I have to follow protocol to get in the door with that connection I have.

Hi Las Vegas. Usually government entities have their own notaries. For example, the anniston army depo here in alabama has a legal team in an office here. What kind of government work are you doing? Many would love to know!
Good morning! I am working with a client who is the compliance director for the department of defense so looks like that is where I’ll have my work. I meet with a supervisor representative from the department in February or March to go over all specifics of the requirements, and where I am allowed to do my work. This is a massive undertaking that will require hiring staff. The money to do this is an award to do notary services within their required area. Thankfully I knew a notary client who hooked me up with this opportunity and right now negotiations are ongoing.
Which I assume (and hope) will be in your own state as you cannot notarize outside your state unless it’s RON- or you hold a dual commission.
By the way, as a former Census employee, let me just warn you of this one little issue working with the federal government - it’s fiscal year budget based and contract based…if the budget for that position is exhausted, work stops until it’s funded again.
Hi @vegas2notary. Thanks for sharing this. It sounds like a great opportunity for you. You mentioned there maybe a need to hire more people (notaries, I believe) for this contract. I’d like to offer my services as a Virginia RON. I’m willing to connect and discuss this further with you, if there’s interest. Regards.
Hello Vegas. send me an email so we can connect. I’m a Government Contract looking to expand my notary services in the government sector. Maybe we can work together. @inkwellnotarypros
