Melina, owner of Closing Signing Service\u2014with more than 23,000 completed transactions since 2020\u2014shares valuable insights about what it truly takes to build and sustain a successful signing service in today\u2019s industry.\n    <\/p>\n<h3>1. Managing Notaries Is the Most Challenging Part<\/h3>\n<p>\n        One of the first lessons Melina learned is that not all notaries approach the work with the same level of professionalism. Reliability varies widely, instructions aren\u2019t always followed, and some simply don\u2019t take the role seriously.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n        <em>\u201cI always assumed notaries would handle signings the way I did\u2014but I was wrong,\u201d<\/em> Melina explains. <em>\u201cFinding high-quality notaries and training them properly is one of the hardest parts of this business.\u201d<\/em>\n    <\/p>\n<h3>2. Fair Notary Fees Make a Real Difference<\/h3>\n<p>\n        Unlike many signing services that cut costs by paying low fees, Melina chooses to pay notaries more. She believes that compensating notaries fairly results in better experiences for clients and stronger long-term relationships.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n        <em>\u201cI believe in treating notaries the way I wanted to be treated when I started,\u201d<\/em> she says. <em>\u201cIf that means making a little less, that\u2019s okay\u2014because it builds trust.\u201d<\/em>\n    <\/p>\n<h3>3. RON Has Become the Most Popular Notary Option<\/h3>\n<p>\n        After reviewing her company\u2019s data, Melina discovered a major shift: Remote Online Notarization now represents the highest volume of notarizations her business handles.\n    <\/p>\n<p>\n        This trend reflects the industry-wide movement toward convenience, speed, and digital solutions\u2014making RON the ideal starting point for new signing services looking to stay ahead.\n    <\/p>\n<h3>Watch the Full Interview<\/h3>\n<p>\n        See Melina\u2019s complete discussion and insights here:<br \/>\n        <a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/nHYeWp9G5K0?si=503YZkH9Li_qbJNI\" target=\"_blank\"><br \/>\n            <iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Building A Notary Business From The Ground Up Ft.
