We’ll soon have another wave of newbs starving.
This seems to happen when the economy turns soft.
IMO, the NNA stays in business by having an ongoing recruiting campaign. They recruit the newbies who will buy the classes, the membership, the supplies, the insurance, the background checks and then buy into the annual conference(s). Their target population is probably the high school/college graduates and the soon-to-be or newly retired. Just think of those possibilities … !
Again, just my opinion. ![]()
I always wonder how long it takes for them to figure out this isn’t the gig they thought they signed up for.
Loan Signing System is also hammering away with several emails a week.
Seems the ‘smart’ ones figure it out in about 6 months. Anyone remember Greenhunter…here I am, where’s my 100K? Lasted about 6 months, apparently found his green, but it wasn’t as an NSA. The majority seem to be sure that ‘tomorrow’ they’ll have proven themselves so then they’ll be getting the big ‘offers’….little do they know~~~
My friend wasn’t very active but when he figured out what people were charged for a notary and what he got paid wasn’t that - he quit. Didn’t renew.
Where do you get insurance from? Thanks
I get my Travelers’ notary bond and E&O policy through a local agency.
My market is in the San Antonio / Austin region, a popular area for military service members to set up residency post discharge from service. With each wave of discharging military persons we see a cycle of new NSAs entering the field with hope in their eye of making it big in this business. They are heart broken after spending upwards of $2K only to find a heavily saturated market.
Absolutely True.
The misleading marketing is truly unconscionable . . .
