Notary Business Talk
In 1999, I became a notary and did nothing with my commission for a year. Then I met a lady who was a full-time notary. She showed me how she made money and that was how I started my notary career. Twenty years later, I continue to make an independent living in the notary industry and want to share my journey and experiences with you. This show is dedicated to sharing ideas, strategies and techniques to help grow your business and improve your life. I will share stories, answer questions, give advice, cover notary related news and share my personal philosophy on business and life.
