The Steps To Get Your MICHIGAN Notary Commission

To become a Notary Public in Michigan, NO training is actually required. Keep in mind a notary exam or continuing education courses are not required in all states. To determine if your state requires applicants to complete an exam to become a Notary Public, reach out to your Secretary of State’s office. Michigan go to the local court house to take an oath! The exam will test your knowledge of the guidelines and procedures covered in your Notary Public Manual provided to you by the Secretary of the State’s office.

How long does it take to get my Notary Certificate?

In MICHIGAN, the time to obtain your notary certificate could be 1-3 weeks. Costs and hours of class time will vary by state. If your state requirements are minimal the process would be closer to 4 weeks. A few states do require training and classes in advance of completing an exam, such as California. How exams are administered and what training or courses are required vary by state.

What is the process to obtain a Notary Commission?

The Notary process varies by state because notaries are commissioned and regulated at the individual state level. All notaries should check with their Secretary of the State to fully understand what is required to obtain their notary commission. For those states that require training, they must be state-approved service providers. While few states require in-person training, it is encouraged to obtain educational support on your own. You can do this through a service provider or organization that teaches practical information to learn how to perform official duties, record notarial acts, or obtain a mentor.

Can I take my Notary Exam online?

Check with your state laws to see if an online option is available — in most states, a third-party proctor’s exams, so are done in person. You can get more information on exam schedules and find locations with proctors on your state’s website. Be prepared to bring payment and your identification.
As with any exam, you want to pass on the first try, so you need to prepare. The most important first step is to have a study plan. If you plan appropriately, you will be prepared and increase your chances of passing the notary exam.
Take notes, highlight the problematic parts, and write down difficult terms. Once you complete this part, you should review it to reinforce what you learned. The best way to approach the exam is to take practice tests. You can find numerous tests online.
Once you have passed your exam, the next step in most states is to obtain a surety bond. This protects consumers if you make an error. You should consider purchasing what is known as E&O insurance, as this will protect you against claims relating to any mistakes you may have made.
Passing your notary exam and ensuring you have all the requirements to perform your notary duties opens the door to many opportunities as a Notary Public. Good luck!

Little Know Ways To Get Life Insurance Leads

Little Known Ways To Get Life Insurance Leads

Life insurance agents, especially new ones tend to get duped into buying expensive leads from various lead generation agencies or lead farms as I call them. They will provide you a quick source of leads be it for final expense, Medicare, term life, or mortgage protection as some companies called it.

Unfortunately, this isn’t really a sustainable way of doing life insurance as a business model. I often hear of agents paying $1000- $2,000 a week on these leads. However, this is completely unnecessary. Many of these leads are shared or otherwise low quality.

So how does one go about getting leads for free or at a very low cost? Let’s go over a few tried-and-true methods that have been employed by many that can be implemented with very little effort, or time wasted.

1) Get a notary commission. This is an additional service you can start to offer that allows you to generate referrals and increase brand awareness. Add this service to your agency’s website and google business profile if you have one.

2) Set your FaceBook profile up to act like a landing page. You get dozens of FB trolls daily. Might as well capture a few leads from that fact. I actually created a 20-minute tutorial on YouTube showing exactly how to best achieve this effect. You can watch the video here

3) Learn to create FaceBook lead form ads with great ad copy. It is a bit tricky and requires practice, but with skill (and proper instruction) you can get quality life insurance leads for $1.00 each. Facebook tries to bamboozle you into page boosts and other methods that don’t work for what your goals really are.

4) Craig’s List. Sounds crazy right? Craig’s list is a monster ad machine. You can create a month-long listing for $5.00. Your ad copy MUST be on point. Use emojis and have a killer headline. These ads work best with some kind of incentive. “Get a ________ just for getting a FREE life insurance quote. This isn’t rebating so long as the incentive isn’t contingent on a policy. Just a quote. I would add a disclaimer “*NO PURCHASE NECESSARY”.

So there you have a few basic steps to get leads flowing. Get a commission. It is used by many different business models as an added service. Play around with some Craig’s List posts in the financial sector. Optimize your personal FB profile page. Your long-term goal should, of course, be to develop your brand, agency, and name for yourself!

We have actually created a course called “The Life Insurance Agent’s 1-Day Lead Generation System” We teach step-by-step how to set up killer FaceBook lead form ads and more. It is a crash course in getting low-cost and even FREE leads. The goal is to break you from the dependency on buying overpriced, low-quality (often shared) leads.

Credit Repair & Credit Counseling

Credit Repair

With rising costs, inflation and ever-shifting job markets It is my impression that credit repair services are going to become an even bigger opportunity than they already are.

Fully 8 of 10 credit reports have errors.  Even if they are accurate but contain other inaccurate or otherwise unlawful reporting practices, they must be removed. If you send in a dispute letter they have to PROVE or REMOVE!

When information on your credit reports is disputed, credit bureaus have 30 days to investigate. However, they don’t have to investigate disputes they deem “frivolous.”

Among the errors that can be addressed:

  • Accounts that don’t belong to you. Obvious clerical errors.

  • Bad reports that are too old.

  • Debts that can’t be verified.

It is important to set up realistic expectations for your client. People looking for a quick fix aren’t necessarily going to get what they are looking for.

We suggest before taking on clients, (read the manual included) pull your own credit. Look for errors & dispute them. Basically, remove defects and up your score. When it works on you, you can make the process work on others. If your credit is stellar offer to help a friend ‘pro-bono’. Same concept. Get practice! Prove the concept.

Are you wondering which source you should use to pull clients’ credit report/scores?

It really depends on what’s the goal of your client.

Are they seeking to purchase a home? MyFICO.com is the best source for this goal. Most of the analysis will be done for you to optimize your score or to determine problems.

Are they seeking to purchase a car? Credit Karma, Privacy Guard will work perfectly for this goal. Many car dealership uses TransUnion for obtaining a credit report.

Are they seeking to obtain an apartment Lease? Experian is the best source for this goal. Why? most background companies use Experian to obtain this information. 580 is usually the minimum score that the average apartment will except but prefer 600 or more. The are some apartments managers will accept scores lower than 580 as long as you don’t have an eviction against you.

We A/B tested different methods including common “Credit Karma” and found this system works better faster and less.

Why Is Business Mentorship & Coaching Important?

It has been said that you are only as good as the company you keep. Having a mentor helps you to level up. We got where we are by this exact process. Mentoring can come via a variety of methods.

Courses and books are a great way to learn what someone has figured out over years in a much shorter period of time. Nothing beats person-to-person though. Someone who can show and explain things carefully that are difficult to understand. Even just the basic coaching concept…building you and giving you unbiased observations.

The only shortcut to success that I am aware of is through proper coaching and mentorship. In all reality, it is probably costing you money in your business development by not seeking mentorship.

I know such was the case for me! The other side of the coin is the expert-in-field who becomes the teacher of others and further cements his own knowledge & wisdom.  The pro now becomes the master by teaching the student.

The advice I would give others who want to achieve success would be this:

  •  Get better every day. Take baby steps, but get better. Learn those new skills that you are lacking.
  • Over deliver. Do the right thing no matter what. Even if it costs you in the short term we truly believe it will come back with an increase down the road.
  • Get a coach. Don’t go it alone. Find someone who has been there that can help you level up!
  • The biggest key to success: Grit. Just have a mindset that you will keep at it. You WILL find a way.  Tough it out! Keep a winning mindset. In my office, I have a replica WWE Championship belt from the 80s on display. It reminds me, to be The Champ! The heavyweight of the world!

The biggest challenge is you will have to be a self-starter. No more boss to peer over your shoulder so you are going to have to be the one to make things happen. Overcome this with your vision of how you see things can be in the not-so-distant future. Also, reward yourself for small victories. Actually, the Macho Man’s Belt was a reward. The 10-Year-old boy in me has been wanting that expensive piece of office decoration for a long time!

People looking to leave the corporate 9-5 should develop solid goals and an action plan and really just get started, Take a leap of faith and see what happens. But, be honest with yourself first. Make sure you are committed to the long haul.

Private Document Custodial & Courier Services

Something like the modern day version of a “bike messenger” with added features.

A courier or messenger delivers paperwork and packages for hospitals, doctors offices, labs, law firms, schools, businesses or government agencies. The list is really endless. As a courier, we must check delivery information, pick up and drop off packages, select the best routes and keep records. We also must deal with clients in person to get signatures and collect payment.

As a Document services we can print large files on laser and bring them to you at nominal cost. Many lender, realty & title agencies anymore will email the files to clients. These are often 100+ pages split between legal & letter size paper. A task of this nature can easily be delegated to a Document specialist.

Noble Notary & Legal Document Preparers  also have corporate accounts with Fed-Ex, UPS, & USPS. We can save you the trip to the Parcel of choice by labeling & sending your documents off for you, at no additional charge.

When say pick-up & drop off is a must, we can hlep!
