Successful Notary Tip #11 Setting Your Travel Fee

Wednesday, April 15, 2009 ·

If you decide to take your notary business mobile you will have to set an appropriate travel fee. When setting your travel fee there are a few things to take into consideration:

  1. Travel time - time spent traveling back and forth to your appointment.

  2. Length of appointment - a notarization at a jail or hospital may take longer than at an office.

  3. Your competition - your travel fee should be comparable to other notaries in the your area, not too high or too low.

  4. Income - how much would you be satisfied with making for an hour of your time?

When considering your time do not forget that time includes preparing for your appointment, traveling to the location, time spent at the location and travel back home.

Most importantly know your worth! You offer a specialized service. If it was so easy to be a notary more people would be notaries. Do not be so hungry for business you undervalue your service but do not be so uptight you price yourself out of the market.

Focus on becoming a brand that offers such good service you develop repeat customers versus a commodity that can be found anywhere. What makes your business different is you!
