Built by the woman who hires notaries every day.
And still closes transactions herself.
I'm Melina Fuenmayor. I've hired close to 6,000 notary signing agents through my signing service in the past five years, and personally closed almost 4,000 transactions in that same period. This is the training I wish every notary I've ever hired had finished before their first appointment.

You've already tried all of this.
YouTube videos that contradicted each other. Certifications that gave you the rules but not what to do the morning after. Facebook groups where the loudest answers were often the wrong ones. Maybe a course made by someone who had been a notary for six months and called themselves a mentor.
Your stamp is sitting on your desk. Your E&O is paid. Your calendar is empty. And you are starting to wonder if the problem is you.
Most notary courses are made by people who don't hire notaries.
I do. My team and I have hired close to 6,000 notary signing agents over the past five years. I built Notary Business Guidance because I got tired of hiring signing agents who didn't understand the weight of the real estate transactions in their hands. Signing agents who couldn't guide a client through the documents. Who panicked when a power of attorney was involved, or fumbled a deed that in Florida requires two separate witnesses, or rushed a split signing. Notaries who didn't confirm on time, didn't scan on time, didn't understand that the way they handle the small things is exactly why a scheduler does or doesn't call them again.
"Is this just another course making big claims?"
Fair question. Here is the difference. I am not a notary who became a coach. I am a signing service owner who is still hiring this week. Every page of this program is built around what I look for when I assign work. If a lesson did not help my own notaries get hired again, it did not make the cut.
A loan signing agent is the professional whose work makes the file fund clean, on time, without preventable delays. This program teaches you to be that professional.
Why you should learn this from me, specifically.
I'm Melina Fuenmayor. I own The Closing Signing Service. My team and I have hired close to 6,000 notary signing agents over the past five years. When you hire that many people for the same role, you stop wondering what makes a good one. You see it in the first three signings: the ones who confirm immediately, review the documents before they arrive, scan on time, and handle the unexpected without panicking. The other ones don't last. Not because I'm strict. Because the work is real, and real work does not tolerate guessing.
I don't teach you what closings used to be like in 2019. I teach you what they are like this week.
The pre-Covid number proves the system works in normal market conditions. The 2020 number shows what is possible when a trained signing agent is positioned correctly. Same person, same fundamentals, different conditions. From 2019 through today, I have personally closed nearly 4,000 transactions while building and running the signing service.
I'm an attorney. I studied law in Venezuela before immigrating to the United States, rebuilt my career from zero in a language I was still learning, and started as a part-time notary signing agent in June of 2019 while still working as a paralegal. Most people who teach notaries online started as notaries. I started as a lawyer who became a notary, scaled as a notary, built a signing service, and never stopped working in the field.
Notary Business Guidance is the training I wish every notary signing agent I've ever hired had completed before their first appointment with my company. It's the standard, written down, taught by someone still doing the work.
If you've read this far, you already know this is the gap nobody else fills. Here is the program.
Become a Preferred Notary Today — $147What is Notary Business Guidance, exactly.
40 lessons, five focused hours, organized into modules you can navigate, search, and revisit any time. Each module covers one operational topic, taught the way I would explain it to a notary on my own team during their first week with The Closing Signing Service. Every module includes downloadable Canva slides you can print and use as reference during real closings.
No filler. No motivational speeches. No two hours of slides being read at you. You can start Friday night and be ready to apply this by Monday morning.
"But I've already bought a course that didn't work."
I know. I have heard that from hundreds of the notaries I have hired. Every other notary course is built by someone who teaches notaries. This one is built by someone who hires them. The lessons are based on the specific reasons I personally mark a notary as preferred or scroll past their name.
You will be in the same room as the people who decide who gets the next call.
When you join Notary Business Guidance, you also join our private community. Inside, you will find me, and the seven schedulers from The Closing Signing Service who decide every day which notaries get called for the next closing. The gatekeepers between you and your next paid signing are no longer strangers. They see you. They know your name. They watch how you carry yourself.
That is the difference between being a name on a list and being a person who comes to mind.
The team behind The Closing Signing Service. Seven of them rotate as schedulers. The rest handle quality control, communications, and operations. All of them are inside the community with you.
Every single day, my team and I post a real-life case from our operations. The community discusses it. We respond. You learn from situations before they happen to you.
- Ask my schedulers a direct question about how a real signing service operates.
- Describe a problem you faced at a closing and get a correction from someone who reviews scanbacks for a living.
- Post your introduction and let the people doing the hiring know exactly who you are.
- Observe how schedulers describe a good notary, what they look for, what they remember.
Why your inbox stays quiet.
Most platforms operate on a preference ranking. Signing services mark the notaries they trust as preferred, and those notaries appear at the top of the search results. If you are not preferred for the companies operating in your zip code, you are competing against everyone else for the offers nobody else took first. That is not bad luck. That is structural.
This program teaches you how to become a preferred notary. The fundamentals that get you marked preferred in my system are exactly what other signing services across the country also reward. Build that reputation once and the offers start landing on your calendar instead of someone else's.
You will not find this anywhere else. Not because nobody has thought of it, but because nobody else owns a signing service that hires at this volume and is willing to open the doors.
What you will actually know how to do when you finish.
Six areas. 40 lessons. Taught the way I would explain each one to a notary on my own team during their first week.
How the loan signing industry actually works.
How to position yourself so the calls come in.
The signing itself, before, during, and after.
Every step of a real closing. Most notaries lose work not on the notarization, but on the small steps around it.
The documents, line by line.
The signatures and certificates that fund or kill the transaction.
POA, trust verbiage, AKA/NKA/FKA, witnesses, split closings. The technical pieces where most notaries lose deals.
The professional standards that turn a one-time gig into repeat work.
Notary Hack.
One dedicated lesson with the operational shortcuts and industry secrets most notary signing agents miss for their entire careers. Things I learned by reviewing scanbacks for thousands of closings and seeing the same mistakes again and again.
You are not the settlement agent, the closing agent, the title agent, or the escrow officer. There are sections of the documents you should never sign, even when it looks like you should. Most notaries get this wrong and damage transactions because of it.
One of many. The kind of thing experienced notaries email me about saying they wish they had known years earlier.
40 lessons. Five focused hours. One weekend. Lifetime access.

You don't need to take my word for it. Below are real notary signing agents who started with Notary Business Guidance. These are not paid endorsements. These are not handpicked outliers.
Proof that NBG prepares you to work with any signing service in the country, not just mine. Other companies recognized the same standard NBG taught her.
When one signing service hires you 80% of the time, it is because they trust you completely. The notary trained inside our system becomes the notary we keep hiring.
If a 15-year industry veteran took something away from this program, you will too.
Working consistently across Broward, Palm Beach, and Miami-Dade. Proof that experience and presence translate directly into a calendar that stays full.
A 67% repeat hire rate from a single signing service only happens when the work meets the standard every single time. Her calendar is not slowing down. It is accelerating.
An honest note about these numbers, as of May 2026. The closing counts above reflect only what is visible to me through the platform my company uses to track signings. They do not include closings these signing agents complete through other platforms, other signing services, or directly with their own title companies. The real numbers are higher than what is shown. Floors, not ceilings.
What students say after finishing the program:
"Melina is the reason I now believe in myself. This course guided me, answered many questions. I'm not so scared to start doing loan signings like I was before. She literally gives you the secret sauce."
— Kemberly Ishuara"What a game changer this is for my business. Melina goes into ALL the details from start to finish. If I had this information before I took my first signing it would have made it less stressful and scary."
— Mnelson71"Melina gets straight to the point and explains exactly what to do with the documents, which is invaluable."

This program is for you if...
You have your notary commission, or you are about to get it, and you understand that the commission is the beginning, not the destination.
You are tired of scattered videos and contradictory advice. You want one structured source of truth, taught by someone who actually does the work.
You want to be the kind of notary signing agent that schedulers remember and signing services hire repeatedly. You are looking for the standard, not for shortcuts.
This program is not for you if...
You are looking for a get-rich-quick scheme. Building a calendar takes time, repetition, and the discipline to apply what you learn.
You expect to be hired by my company immediately after purchase. We hire frequently from this community, but assignments depend on quality, location, and availability.
You want a certificate for the wall. NNA already gives you that. What I teach is what comes after.
You are looking for the cheapest course on the market. Cheaper usually means worse in this industry.
If you read both lists and saw yourself in the first one, you are who I built this program for. The offer is below.
Here is everything you get for $147.
I priced this at $147 deliberately. It is roughly the fee from a single average closing in this country. If my company hires you twice, the program has paid for itself. If we never hire you again, the same fundamentals make you preferred to dozens of other signing services that operate the same way I do. The math is on your side either way.
What is included.
When my schedulers search for a signing agent in your area, you appear in the top 10 results out of typically 200 notaries. The structural advantage no other course in this industry can give you.
40 lessons, 5 hours of focused content. A structured, searchable training designed to be completed in one to three days. Every lesson is built to be applied immediately, not studied in theory.
A complete walkthrough of every document in a real loan signing package, line by line, taught the way the borrower will see them. No other course walks the documents this way.
Operational shortcuts and industry secrets most notary signing agents miss for their entire careers. Information you will not find in NNA materials, YouTube videos, or other notary courses.
Printable, editable reference materials you can keep on your desk during real closings. Not decoration. Working documents.
Buy once. Keep forever. Future updates included automatically. No subscriptions, no renewals, no expiration.
Direct access to the people who decide which notaries get the next assignment, plus a real-life case from our operations posted every single day for community discussion. You learn from situations before they happen to you.
"Will I actually make the money back?"
$147 is roughly the fee from a single signing in this country. If my company hires you twice, the program has paid for itself. If we never hire you again, the same fundamentals make you preferred to dozens of other signing services that operate the same way I do. You are not betting $147 on me. You are investing $147 in becoming the kind of notary signing services compete for.
A guarantee that protects you.
If you complete the first three modules and decide this program is not what you needed, write to us within 14 days of your purchase and we will refund you in full. No interrogations. No paperwork.
The risk of trying this is not yours, it is mine.
Frequently asked questions.
I am brand new. I have my notary commission but I have never done a real signing. Is this for me?
Yes. The program walks you through every step of a real closing as if you were sitting next to me before your first appointment with my company. By the time you finish, you will know exactly what to do at the table, what to scan, when to confirm, and how to handle the situations that scare most new signing agents.
Will you actually hire me if I take this course?
When you complete Notary Business Guidance, I mark you as a preferred notary in our system. The next time my schedulers search for a signing agent in your area, you appear in the top 10 results out of typically 200 notaries. That is a real, measurable advantage no other course can give you. What I cannot promise is that all your future income will come from my company. To build a full calendar you will need to be visible to dozens of signing services, and the program teaches you exactly that. Think of my company as one of your strongest doors, not the only door.
How much do I need to invest to actually start working as a signing agent?
Around $1,500 to start fully equipped: state commission and bond, E&O insurance, NNA certification, background check, dual tray printer, portable scanner, business cards, basic supplies. Less if you already have the equipment. The return on that investment can be made back in the first month of consistent work if you are trained correctly.
How is this different from the NNA certification I already have?
NNA gives you the official credential and the code of conduct. Keep it. Notary Business Guidance teaches you everything that happens after the certification: how to set up your profile, how to get business, how to confirm and prepare for appointments, how to guide a borrower through the documents, how to handle POA and trusts and split signings, how to scan correctly, how to communicate with schedulers, and how to position yourself as the kind of professional signing services hire repeatedly.
NNA gives you the foundation. NBG gives you the execution.
Does this program work if I am not in Florida?
Yes. The operational and professional standards apply nationwide. Specific state-by-state regulations on witnesses, notarial certificate language, and recording requirements vary, and where it matters I point out the differences. You are responsible for knowing your specific state requirements.
What happens immediately after I purchase?
You receive an email with access credentials and can start the first lesson within minutes. You are also added to the private community. Lifetime access to both.
Every question above has been asked by buyers who later took the program. Their calendars are now full.

Your time is now.
Right now, somewhere in your zip code, a closing is being assigned to a notary who decided to be ready before you did. That is the math of this industry, every day.
In close to 6,000 hires, the notaries who build full calendars are not the most experienced or the most certified. They are the ones who got serious early and showed up prepared the first time the call came.
