Typically people work 9-5 jobs. That’s why i offer 24/7 mobile notary services to the public. Yes it may cost a little more because of a travel fee charge. It’s the cost of convenience for the client and the cost of business for myself.
Remember, a person has to take time out of their day, (unpaid time) to drive over to a notary public, look for parking, wait in line, get their docs notarized and then drive back in a rush. Yes that sounds a bit much, but those are the actions taken.
Whereas a call to Fast Notary Service to setup an appointment later in the day (home or coffee shop) to notarize at their leisure. Typically, a notarization of one document for one person’s signature takes only about 5 minutes. So your whole notary experience is boiled down to a 2 minute call and a quick meeting with you to notarize your documents. Whereas one driving over to a notary public would take at least an hour (depending on traffic and parking).
There are people who are fortunate enough to work near a notary public’s office. That reduces the time to about 20 minutes, but that is still 20 minutes of either unpaid time or taken away from your lunch.
Just remember that Fast Notary Service offers 24/7 mobile notary services to Los Angels County (i.e. Encino, Sherman Oaks, Studio City, Beverly Hills, Woodland Hills, Tarzana, Calabasas, etc.)
