As a newbie I’m taking everything that’s coming in. Just yesterday I drove 35 minutes south for $70. I believe the signing services are going to help me learn my craft and give me experience. In a week I’ve made $100, $85, $75 & $70 respectively. And tonight I have a refi for $150! I’m totally NOT against signing services. I need them in my career at this point. Thanks for talking to us 😊
Mr. Griffin we appreciate your valuable insight on this business. Its nice to hear a man's perspective, because I mostly hear women.. You have given me many tips and nuggets. Im 6 months in. Thank you so much. Many Blessings to you and your family.
32 signings in 10 days to make over 3000 dollars. I look at it as the signing may take 45 to 1 hour each, so 32 hours and you make over 3000. Some don't make that in a month and you still had roughly 20 days left in the month for more opportunities. I just want people to look at the bigger picture versus looking at the money aspect. There is nothing wrong with goals but everyone's journey is not for you. Keep the videos coming!!
Simply awesome! This is the type of discussions that we don’t have in those FB groups. An the Newbies come on taking all the wrongs messages. Again awesome post!
I thought money was money too. I haven't started yet but signing services was my plan and over time if I get direct business with Title and Escrow companies then great otherwise I'm fine with signing companies.
Going direct pay you more money. Between 150-200 every time. That’s the difference. Yes you need SC to get your feet wet but once you get that experience and know what your doing your gonna want to make more money if you can. That’s a no brained. The LSS course teach you so much.
Griff you are AWESOME!!! I believe that your journey is in your journal.....that shows the type of NSA that you choose to be.... I just want to be very good at providing excellent service to all clients...you never know when someone will notice and want you consistently.
I’m still a newbie to game. But I’m taking this profession seriously. I’m only subscribed to 3 Notaries on Tube. 1. They are masters of their crafts 2. They have 5 plus years of experience and have their networking down. New subscriber Brother! Great Channel.
I am listening 🎧 I am a New Notary and I appreciate any good intelligent and Honest WORD. Weather it's from a Person on RUclips or a CHURCH. Very good content 😌🙂 Thanks Mr. Griffin.
They act like it’s the end all be all and honestly I know I’m not at all ready to go direct and that’s ok I want to be confident before I go direct. Who knows I might even just stay with signing the companies . Every body’s journey is different and that’s ok too. Good video 😀
Good video brother. I've been watching alot of videos and I just filled out my notary paperwork today. Honestly, I don't even have thoughts on going direct. I plan on hustling with the signing companies as much as possible and whatever happens happens. I'm just in it for the extra money.
The escrow officer I work with will print the documents for me. I never had a signing service print for me unless it is a two part signing and the documents are being shipped to me from the other location. However, some signing services will pay more than title companies especially if it is a last minute signing.
Thank you for explaining the two services. As a new notary, I feel it would be best to take available assignments to learn various docs, and gain experience in different situations. Too many on here make it sound like a "cake walk" when like everything in life it has its pros and cons. Great video & humor.
New to the notary business. I just starting my Insurance agency and notary business. In my prospective it all money is money. I am quoting all insurance clients and notary business I can. I am building all the clientele I can. I completely agree with you.
Very wise and direct as it should be! That gave me some clarity. Now on to the next question, can you please do a vid about mileage and how it is used and calculated as signing agent?
Honestly you gave us free game right there!!!! Thank you. I was thinking that going direct was the best route to go in my business. Going direct It’s not the end all be all!
That is correct. Each title company has a limited number of closings per month and the more direct notaries they work with the less we can get. But the signing company can have 15, 20 or more companies they work with and that means more closings for us
Good information Griff thanks for sharing. Building good relationships will always pay off. Both direct and signing companies works for me, I'm always on the lookout for more companies to work with.
Thanks for sharing your prospective... yea that’s the reality that loan signing agents need to consider... real talk...I like you had directs my first 3 signings...then I didn’t hear from them again..signing services have been tagging me though....I will continue to diversify... but for now Its all good 👍🏾
Very very great discussion Griff!! As always great content and dropping gems for the newbies. You give the prescriptive that others aren't!! I'm waiting on my commission to be approved. Could you do a video on your E&O insurance, what you started with and who to where you are now? Another 👍 Keep it coming!
You are awesome for giving us items to make us top signing agents. If you are working to make money why not do the items that pay the most? Money is money and more money is better. Can a notary make $10k a month with the signing agencies without doing double the work? Can a title company provide enough work to consistently make sure the notary makes $10k per month? There are always price wars even with the signing company’s. How much is the profit if a notary must print docs due to working for a signing agency vs pre-printed docs from a title company? A manager can manage what they don’t do personally. My friend is a nurse manager with 6 clinics, she has a BSN, MS, DPN. Her boss has a BA & MBA and manages 10 nurse managers. Thank you for giving different things to consider b 4 going direct and ways to negotiate with both title companies and signing agencies.
That is correct but when the only one that is giving you work is the SS. Sometimes you have to take the dollars you can until the direct clients hire you
At the end of the day, money is money, and as an Independent Contractor you ultimately work for yourself anyways whether the business comes from a SS or from a TC. Period! But a lot of these new signing agents do get hung up on “going direct” like it’s a cure all solution, but it’s all about personal preference, because what works for you may or may not work for me and vice versa. It’s more than one way to skin a cat, So at the end of the day, you just have to do whatever works best for you and allows you to reach your business goals.
@CaliLoveTV you are 100%. When someone really doesn't understand how to run a business they start grasping for straws and trying to get others to make it easy for them rather than put in the work and move their business into a profitable state.
I was presented with an opportunity today and plan to take it just to see how things go. I can tell you right know the title company already wants to pay below $100 for a seller/buyer package
I agree. The way this worked out was I was asked what's my fee I said $125. Then a hour later the person I was FB msgr with said someone said they'll did it for $85. Then she asked would be willing to do $100. Just to see how far I can get with them I said yes.
Also. People think that the only cheap title companies are the ones that use a signing service. To me all title/escrow companies have an incentive to low ball notaries especially new ones.

True true true
Truth be told my friend
Are you part time?
@@Sheabuttahbaby for now I am part time, yes
Good job!

I appreciate that!
I love this! Money is great but the relationships you build creates more opportunities!!
No hype. I love it.
32 signings in 10 days averaged out to roughly 139 per signing. Money is money!
I am learning a lot from you. You are such a genuine person.
I appreciate that!

You are so on point about people that paint the picture soooo magical.
I do direct business for one reason only. They pay me more than the SS. I will never go all direct. It’s not a smart move.
Why is that not a smart move?
Good advice and much appreciated. I like your thoughtful insight 👍🏽
Love this wisdom. I take direct and indirect signings and it's all cheddar. And those numbers add up to a business that is booming right now!
I also been having the feeling they will treat me like an employee
I thought money was money too. I haven't started yet but signing services was my plan and over time if I get direct business with Title and Escrow companies then great otherwise I'm fine with signing companies.

Where's this Earl guy at, ima mess him up!
Great advice especially for young and early professionals. Relationships / dress / all important. This comes with experience.
Your correct speak your truth! I’m listening and learning!

Thank you for your honesty.... it was very helpful to me to understand what to expect as a LSA.

I think what you are saying is good advice.
You are just talking....we are just listening
You BETTA PREACH👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏!!!!!
Mr. Griff thank you so much for your insight and guidance. I haven't even begun to get any training Yet but realize Hey I can do this. 👏🏽☺
I really enjoy your videos very informative and you have a nice voice unlike others that I find annoying and hurt my head.
I’m learning so much from you
Good information Griff thanks for sharing. Building good relationships will always pay off. Both direct and signing companies works for me, I'm always on the lookout for more companies to work with.

Smart move
Very very great discussion Griff!! As always great content and dropping gems for the newbies. You give the prescriptive that others aren't!! I'm waiting on my commission to be approved.

Griff what training course did you take?
Notarycoach.com
All valid points.
I think my personality fits SS more so than Direct! I’m so glad you broke this down because I had no idea of the Dynamic I could face going Direct
Hey Grif, You keep it real.I tell people its a good thing, but it serious and needs to be treated that way. Stanleynotary
No one i see is spittin' it this real. I appreciate you fkr putting some things in perspective for me.
Thank Rennell. The truth opens more doors of opportunity than fluff
This is exactly what’s no body is talking about!
You do make some good points about negotiating fees
You are awesome for giving us items to make us top signing agents. If you are working to make money why not do the items that pay the most? Money is money and more money is better.

Thanks for sharing.
Appreciate the baby steps 🚶♂️
Great stuff...👌🏾
Hello Mr. Griffin. I’m new. Do you have to pay the signing companies?
Some you do other's you don't. In the description of my video "your profile will separate you from them" is a list
I here hype in certain places
Preach!
Seems like its still a 9 to 5
I think people talk down on SS because pay time is far out, whereas direct you get paid within that month most times.
That is correct but when the only one that is giving you work is the SS. Sometimes you have to take the dollars you can until the direct clients hire you
At the end of the day, money is money, and as an Independent Contractor you ultimately work for yourself anyways whether the business comes from a SS or from a TC. Period!

Good video. Have you experienced any racism. Is age a limit
👍👍👍👍👍😎
Why don't you give it a try and see how it goes......then you will know
I was presented with an opportunity today and plan to take it just to see how things go. I can tell you right know the title company already wants to pay below $100 for a seller/buyer package
@@GriffinNotary wowwwwwww....that's it?....I'm surprised
Maybe don't take that one because you have wayyyyyyyy too much experience for that low pay
I agree. The way this worked out was I was asked what's my fee I said $125. Then a hour later the person I was FB msgr with said someone said they'll did it for $85. Then she asked would be willing to do $100. Just to see how far I can get with them I said yes.
