Notary work isn’t limited to courthouses or government offices anymore. Today, mobile and online notaries are in high demand, and the key to long-term success is building relationships with clients who regularly need your services. Two standout groups can fuel steady growth in your notary business: real estate professionals and local small businesses.
1. Real Estate Professionals
Real estate is one of the most reliable industries for notaries. Whether it’s closings, refinancing, or loan signings, documents must be notarized to move deals forward. Mortgage brokers, realtors, title companies, and escrow officers all depend on notaries, especially mobile or remote ones who are flexible and fast.
If you want to tap into this market, start with high-volume real estate agents, independent mortgage brokers, and property managers. They deal with a lot of paperwork and are more likely to need repeat services.
How to connect with them:
Show up where they are. Attend open houses, real estate networking events, or reach out directly with a professional flyer or email introducing your services. Make sure your communication includes your availability, pricing, and how easy it is to book with you. Being reliable and quick to respond is what earns repeat business in this space.
2. Local Small Businesses
Many small businesses like auto dealerships, law offices, and daycares need notarizations for everyday operations but don’t have in-house notaries. These clients are often overlooked, even though they regularly deal with vendor agreements, lease documents, licensing forms, and employment paperwork.
By positioning yourself as their go-to mobile notary, you can become part of their regular workflow.
How to reach them:
Visit local storefronts and introduce yourself. Leave behind a branded flyer or business card. Offer a first-time discount or a loyalty program to encourage ongoing relationships. You can also keep in touch by sending a quarterly email with service reminders, updates on notary regulations, or seasonal promotions.
Boosting Your Visibility and Referrals
Networking is still one of the best ways to grow. Join your local Chamber of Commerce, attend small business meetups, or get involved in professional networking groups. These spaces are full of professionals who might need a notary or know someone who does.
Make sure your online presence is working for you. Keep your Google Business Profile, Yelp, and Apple Business Connect listings up to date with accurate hours, services, and photos. Add a call-to-action like a “Book Now” button and request reviews from happy clients. On social media, use Instagram, Facebook, or LinkedIn to highlight your services, share behind-the-scenes content, and make it easy for people to reach you.
