How you set up your business can impact how profitable your Notary business can be. Join Sue Hope for insights on making it as a successful solopreneur.

In this video, you’ll learn the pros and cons of doing business yourself or as a corporation, how to stay organized, and ways to advertise your Notary
services.

After getting your commission, consider whether you will do business under your own name or as a corporation or LLC. It’s quicker to start and less expensive to conduct business as yourself, but your personal assets can be protected when doing business as a corporation. Consider what’s best for your individual needs and budget. While working, it’s important to stay organized and leverage both free and paid advertising. Organization is key to financial and professional success. Keep records of business expenses throughout the year for tax benefits. The easiest (and free) way to advertise your Notary business is to simply tell people you’re a Notary. For paid advertisements, don’t underestimate the power of small-scale options, such as business cards, ads in school programs, or even Notary Public license plate frames like these!: https://bit.ly/3vUVOKG.

Setting up a profitable Notary business takes a lot of work and dedication. To succeed as a solopreneur, Sue Hope recommends keeping a work-life
balance.
