@Windchime71 Great question & one that is asked quite regularly . . .

The first concept to consider is that you’re now a Business Owner & you’re going to be filling ALL the roles to make YOUR business successful. It truly is a paradigm shift.
Second, this process is a marathon, not a sprint.
Third, it’s always wise to research & vet a new client prior to providing a definitive confirmation to them for your initial Signing Order for them => especially now that so many of them are not paying professional signing agents and/or are going out-of-business. A great start of research would begin within the Notary Cafe forums Search Function.
Many members find it difficult/nearly impossible to locate the Search Function in order to access the wealth of information available within the database.
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.

Plus, the information is immediately available!
