Today we’d like to introduce you to Pamela Gunter.
Hi Pamela, so excited to have you on the platform. So before we get into questions about your work-life, maybe you can bring our readers up to speed on your story and how you got to where you are today?
Back in the end of 2007. I met an older gentleman at a park who was marrying someone and at the end of our convo. He asked me if I would like to get my Notary license and at some point, take over? And….. That’s how my business started. I got my notary license and few months after got my Loan signing agent certificate. Couple years after that my Reverend license. So, the beginning of my adventure. I actually started out doing Wedding mostly with my Notary license. I would do 50 to 75 a year.
About 3 yrs later. I created all my own SEO & Advertising. Which started to get my seen more on the web. I then began to get more general notaries. About a year before COVID hit. I used my notary license to expand my services, including getting my Ron Notary license. I started to utilize the ability to add what I wound say as; I wear many hats… lol property inspections, permit running for contractors, document posting & Delivery, & more of a need for loan closings.
Then COVID hit, along with hurricane Ian! Weddings pretty much plummeted! So now I do about 5 to 10 a Weddings a year. The Notary part of my business , picked up though. Huge increase for loan singings & property inspections and permits and Notice of Commencements.
We all face challenges, but looking back would you describe it as a relatively smooth road?
Definately not a smooth road. financial pumps along the way with national shut downs around the world and catastrofic mother nature events! I’m still trying to get my business finacially forward
Appreciate you sharing that. What should we know about Florida Notary Officers?
I believe other than what I just gave you is all my services a mobile. I am a mobile notary and I feel that, that is really what sets me apart from a lot.
We all have a different way of looking at and defining success. How do you define success?
Working at what your passionate about. I feel success in an unfolding event in your life and there are many stages.
Being a positive purpose in people’s lives. that gives me fulfillment in my life while maintaining a healthy balance in my everyday life. The only other aspect ultimately is having enough income to support my family!
