Joan,
I think one very important point that is being overlooked by you is where these notaries are concentrated. That is the reason for giving the numbers for 20/mi - 30/mi. areas. Yes, the areas talked about are oversaturated with notaries. It would be nice if we could spread all those numbers you quoted evenly all over the States. It's the fact that these numbers are concentrated in major cities where the NNA loves to sell their wares.
Marketing is an important thing. Personally I don't think that will help much with a zillion notaries concentrated in certain areas. The Notary Auction is the "in thing" right now, the cheaper the notary the better. To heck with the quality of work is the attitude in general.
When a majority of people are having the very same experiences across the country you have to start admitting those experiences are true.
"Trying to scare away competition" Not hardly! We are stating the facts.
