TJ walks through leaving your 9-to-5 by building side income through notary work. Start by cutting expenses and calculating your real monthly budget, then stack multiple notary revenue streams (loan signings, apostille work) while networking locally. Keep the side income steady for 4-6 months before you quit, and use notary as a launchpad to other businesses.
Questions this video answers
How much money it takes for you and your family to survive with all bills paid for one month.
At least three (example: general notary, loan signings, apostille work).
Consistent side-income for at least four to six months.
Hey beautiful people. I am sitting in my truck thinking about you and there are so many people that I've talked to recently that absolutely hate their jobs, hate what they are doing. And so I wanted to make a video to tell you, explain to you how I think it's best for you to transition. The gig opportunities are amazing. I mean if you do Uber.
Stripe, what is that with the groceries? Listen, shipped all of those, they are amazing. If you want to transition out of corporate America from your nine to five, number one, figure out how much money it takes for you and your family to survive. All bills paid for one month. You gotta know it's a number you can't win if you don't take score. So figure out how much money you need in a month. Calculate some going out to eat, calculate like a realistic budget or how much you need per month and figure out what all can be cut out. Some of these recurring, these recurring subscriptions and all of that stuff. Figure out what can be cut out. That's number one, your budget. Number two, figure out exactly what you enjoy freaking doing. There's a lot that you can do in this notary business. That's why, I mean throughout the United States, if I have to move, I can become a notary and build my business back up. That's why I like it. Plus there are so many options for what you can do when you are a commission notary. You can be a court reporter, you can do loan signings, you can process apostille documents, you can do field inspections, you can do wedding officiating. There's so much that you can do. There's no reason you can't find one thing, stick to it and become the absolute best. You need to be hyper local, meaning that you need to be the notary. The notary in your community, everybody around you, all of the blocks, the schools, every business needs to know that you are a notary. You are not a notary. You are the notary that they need to call. That's when you get to the point. Okay, you don't just become a notary public loan signing agent. You don't just do one thing in this business. Make your money by doing at least three things. I'd say general notary loan signings and apostille work. Those are my three, what are yours? What's going to get you to that point. So now, number one, you have looked at your budget. Number two, you figured out exactly what you want to do and you've become the person to do that in your area. And along with that is your schedule. You know, you got to figure out what your work schedule is. If right now you're working and all you have is from 5 to 8 o' clock or 5 to 9 and then on weekends you gotta work to make that hyper local fit into your schedule. Even if it's when you are on your way from your job to your child's school or from your job home. You gotta create some flyers, let people know that you are out here. So number three is net, is is marketing and networking, right? And number four, start getting your business in order. Just get your business in order when I say get your business in order. Get your household in order. Let everybody know what's going on. Let everybody know what the plan is and what you are doing and how will you know that you're there. When you have reached your income on the side and you are consistent with that income for at least four to six months, you know, okay, this is how much I can make and this is what I need to do to make it. And if I do this, this and this, I can drum up business just like that. So if it's, I can post on social media and yes, the people are going to call me if I can, whatever it is.
That'S when you know you can leave. When you've done those. When you, when you're at a point where your income 4 to 6 months is met now you know, okay, I'm ready now you don't have to leave in four to six months, but you have built your business up to the point where you are ready to do something else. And this is what I want you to know. I believe that the notary opportunity is a jumping off opportunity. I don't believe in going from a job to just being a notary. Right? I believe that if you use this opportunity to replace your income, why not figure out what else you love to do? What do you love to do? Do you love cooking? Do you love writing books? Do you love coaching because you know how to do something that you could teach somebody else how to do and make a load of money. I don't care if it's cleaning, whatever it is, you can make a load of money teaching other people to do what you do. Figure out what you can do so that you don't have to do nothing, so that you can make some courses online, sell those courses, people buy them and you can just sit back and watch those courses sell. Think about it. What do you love to do that you can teach other people to do? What do you love to do that? You love it so much that it ain't even work for you to do it. So, I mean, this is TJ with solutions by tj. Those are my thoughts. That is what me and my tribe with the success circle mastermind work on all the time. There's one lady in a group, her name is Janice Snow and she has the voice of an angel. I mean, it's just this real melodic.
Nice voice. And I told her, you know what, man, you should. She said she like enjoys working with children. She didn't necessarily know what to do. I was like, you know what you should do? A YouTube channel where you are just reading children's books. Do you know how much YouTube pays those people? Because when you read children's books, let's say you're reading bedtime stories and let's say you copy it and it's a eight hour bedtime story. People will leave that video on for their kids all night long. Let's say you read the book and then whatever background music just keeps on playing for the rest of the time. There are ways. And you can just get paid and paid and paid. Because the way that YouTube works, if you want to do that, is they want you to get so many people and then those people watch so many hours, right? So I think it may be 4000 hours and a thousand subscribers, something like that. But just think how fast that is if children are listening to your book all night long. Come on, Saint, we gonna retire in this mug. We. There is a way to for you to quit your 9 to 5 and be successful. If you have any questions or any comments, please leave it in the comments below.
