The Real Answer to “How Do I Make More Money as a Notary?”

One of the most common questions I hear from new notaries and seasoned notary entrepreneurs alike is this:

“How do I make more money?”

It’s a fair question.

It’s also usually answered the wrong way.

The “Right” Answer for Business Growth

Most of the answers focus on the what.

Do loan signings.

Add fingerprinting.

Offer apostilles.

Work with medical facilities.

Perform weddings.

And while all of those can absolutely make money, none of them actually answer the deeper question.

The real difference between notaries who struggle and notaries who grow has far less to do with what they offer and far more to do with how they operate.

The “how” is the engine.

With the right how, you can make almost any what work.

Without it, even the best opportunities fall flat.

That’s exactly why I created the High Performance Notary community on the Skool platform.

Not to push one specialty over another, but to get down to the core question most people never slow down to ask:

“How do I consistently make progress as a business owner?”

When you strip this business down to its essentials, it’s actually very simple.

Understanding Where Revenue Comes From

No matter what specialty you focus on, your clients and customers will always come from just two sources.

First, relationships.

This is your ability to reach out, start conversations, cultivate trust, and stay top of mind with the people who might hire you or refer you.

Second, visibility.

This is your ability to be easy to find online when someone actively needs your services.

That’s it.

Every notary business, regardless of specialty, lives or dies by those two things.

We tend to overcomplicate it.

We chase shiny objects (Shiny is my favorite color).

We look for the perfect niche before we’ve built the habits that make any niche profitable.

Inside High Performance Notary, we solve for this with structure.

Specifically, six daily practices we call the Daily Do’s.

Daily Revenue-Generating Activities

These are simple, repeatable actions that ensure, every single day, you are:

1. Researching prospects for deeper connection & personalization

2. Reaching out to prospective clients

3. Following up on previous conversations

4. Leveraging your current network for referrals and introductions

5. Engaging in networking or community activity

6. Boosting your online visibility

You can do them in 60 minutes a day, or you can stretch them to two hours, depending on how quickly you need results (income) in your life.

When I first figured this out, I was desperate. I needed money quickly, so I went hard. And the results were insane, moving from barely scraping by with $1,000 a month, to earning well over $20,000 a month within 90 days of implementation. 

I don’t guarantee those results, or that they’ll come that fast for you, but this activity works. 

But the beauty of this system is that it scales.

Whether your goal is an extra $500 a month or an extra $5,000 a month, the steps don’t change.

Growth Happens Through Habits

You must consistently put yourself in front of people who could hire you or refer you.

You must consistently stay visible where people are already searching.

And you must learn how to confidently close the deal when opportunity shows up.

That’s the real answer to “How do I make more money as a notary?”

Not a new specialty.

Not a new certification.

Not a magic platform or piece of technology.

It’s daily structure.

Daily revenue-generating activity.

And the discipline to show up even when motivation fades.

Get the how right, and the what becomes a lot less overwhelming.
