Mark Wills runs a $20K-a-month notary business from a van equipped with a scanner and dual-tray printer mounted on top. He built the setup to work in extreme heat and snow without damaging equipment, using ventilation and an open-air design to keep everything running.

But I think every notary public loan signing agent who's in the $20,000 range, $10,000 range has some type of mobile office. And the best part is each one of you signing agents set it up a little bit differently to what you would do. So I would call these notary hacks. So let's just kind of talk through.
Your setup.
Here and show people how you built yours. And let's take the floor.
Okay, so on top, I've mounted a scanner, and it is mounted so it's not moving anywhere. It's right on top here. And then I've got my dual tray laser printer. We purposefully put these on top. That way I can work from the back.
I don't have to be out here.
Because as Mark was just telling you.
It does get chilly.
Out in the elements.
But we're also in a valley, so.
It gets in triple digits in the summer sometimes. So I don't have to be out in the elements. I can be working from the back.
It's literally snowing. It's a beautiful Salt Lake City mountains. But the question my point is, is in a lot of signing agents say, how does this deal in the cold weather?
Right.
Because people like, you know, can this printer set up work in cold weather? So if you're in a cold weather mountain town or whatnot, tell people how it will operate in the cold weather.
So I purposely wanted a van too, because it's. It's totally open. It's not enclosed. So I've got a lot of ventilation going on back here for the winter and for the summer when it's hot. And I have had no problems with printing issues at all.
Okay, perfect. Well, thank you for saying next. I know there are some questions I like. It's freezing where I live, and so. Great, keep on going.
