It’s often said that knowledge is power. Yet without the right guidance, book knowledge combined with a newly minted certification is like being on a ship lost at sea. That’s where mobile notary training and mentorship come into play.
Andrea has navigated the choppy waters of the notary profession, overcoming the difficulties of both starting a new notary business and dealing with the often complex demands of the notarial process. As Andrea tells it:
“When I passed my first exam and received my first notary commission I really didn’t know what I was doing. I made errors that could have been avoided. These errors resulted in lost business and income.”
Today, Andrea has more than 930+ Five-Star Reviews and is one of the highest income-earners in the mobile notary profession!
Because of that early history, Andrea developed an expert notary training and mentoring program in California to help other notaries avoid common problems. Andrea has programs available either online or in person.
These notary training programs are designed to provide comprehensive support and practical insights to both new and experienced notaries, giving them the confidence and competence to excel both as a notary and a solopreneur.
