Tending to agree with you. Seems there isn't enough demand for these companies to set up their own employees working shifts, so they are relying on ICs who sign up to handle the (lack of) volume on a 'whenever' basis (sorta like Uber...you want work, you sign in) for totally pathetic fees. It just doesn't seem to be a full-time/liveable income option, but the notary bears all the liability for whatever goes wrong, goes wrong, goes wrong. I can't source this because I don't remember where I saw some guy post that he was onboard w/some company & signed in when he had nothing else working and made less than $25/day as most requests are for 1 or 2 notarizations/client and notary is paid $5 for first & $1 for add'l notarizations/same customer. At least, that's my recollection. |
