**Premier membership should also not have any influence on the rating system because the point of becoming a premier member is to get a premier SPOT in one's zip codes.**
Have to disagree with you there.
Why would anyone purchase a membership if it didn't help the ratings?
I've never been in favor of unpaid memberships with the same privileges although I see the wisdom in it. There are some areas (like mine) which have only one or few notaries listed per zip code. No need to purchase anything there. But I do. This is a very good marketing tool and I have supported it for years. |
