Let’s be honest—getting your notary commission is only half the battle. The real question is: How do you get paying clients? Whether you’re brand new or looking to fill up your calendar with consistent work, this guide gives you 6 proven, fast-acting ways to market your mobile notary business in Pennsylvania.
1. Set Up and Optimize Your Google Business Profile
This is non-negotiable. A verified Google Business Profile makes it easy for people in your area to find you when they search “notary near me.”
Include:
- Your mobile service area (list cities + counties)
- Photos of you at work
- Your working hours (include evenings/weekends!)
- Keywords like “mobile notary,” “apostille services,” “loan signing agent”
2. Post in Local Facebook and Nextdoor Groups
Your community is your first customer base. Join neighborhood, parent, real estate, and business groups. Then post once a week:
“I’m a mobile notary serving [City/County]. I offer evening and weekend appointments—message me if you need help!”
3. Partner with Local Professionals
Start with realtors, attorneys, accountants, and assisted living administrators. Offer to stop by and drop off your card or mini flyer. You’ll be surprised how many are looking for a reliable notary they can call.
💡 Pro Tip: Bring donuts or coffee and introduce yourself in person. The human touch builds trust fast.
4. List Yourself on Free Notary Directories
While you’re getting started, take advantage of free platforms:
- NotaryRotary.com
- 123Notary.com
- SnapDocs.com (when you’re ready for loan signings)
Add your services, ZIP codes, and links to your Google profile or website.
5. Offer Extended Hours & Emergency Appointments
Most mobile notary clients are working professionals or busy families. Your edge? Be available when others aren’t.
Market this: “Available 7 Days a Week — Evenings & Weekends” or “Emergency Notary Appointments Welcome.”
6. Use a Simple Scheduling Tool
You don’t need a fancy website to look professional. Use a free tool like Calendly or Square to let people book appointments and pay online.
Add the link to your Facebook page, Google listing, and texts so clients can schedule themselves.
7. Turn One Client into Five (Referral Scripts)
After every successful appointment, say:
“I’m building my local business—do you know anyone else who might need a notary this month? I’d love to help.”
You’d be surprised how many people will hand you a referral on the spot.
