What Makes Laura Bennett with Entheos Notary a Good Neighbor?

In today's fast-paced world, the need for efficient and accessible notary services has never been greater. The Good Neighbor Podcast recently featured Laura Bennett, founder of Entheos Notary, who is revolutionizing how we think about document notarization through both mobile and remote online services. Her story illustrates how traditional practices can evolve to meet modern needs while maintaining the highest standards of security and professionalism.

Laura's journey into the notary business wasn't planned. After spending 18 years in the corporate world, she sought greater flexibility, purpose, and freedom. This desire led her to explore entrepreneurship, where she discovered notary services aligned perfectly with her values and offered an opportunity to help people during significant life transitions. This accidental discovery transformed into a passion project that became Entheos Notary, a business built from the ground up with a focus on convenience and compassionate service.

One of the most fascinating aspects of Laura's business is her remote online notary service. Unlike traditional notarization that requires in-person meetings, remote online notarization allows clients to complete their document requirements from anywhere in the world. The process is secure and straightforward: clients receive a link to Laura's platform, answer authentication questions, upload their identification, and connect with Laura via real-time video. After verification, documents are digitally signed and sealed, creating a legally binding document with a digital certificate. This technological innovation maintains all the security of traditional notarization while adding layers of convenience previously unavailable.

A common misconception Laura encounters is that all notary services are identical – a quick stamp and signature. However, notaries like Laura shoulder significant responsibility, often working with clients during sensitive and emotional circumstances such as estate planning or end-of-life documentation. Another myth she debunks is that remote online notarization isn't secure. Contrary to this belief, remote notarization is highly regulated and often more secure than traditional methods, as every interaction is recorded verbally and electronically, creating a comprehensive audit trail that protects all parties involved.

Laura's client base spans across demographics – from busy parents and senior caregivers to small business owners, healthcare professionals, and realtors. Anyone needing trustworthy notarization during life transitions can benefit from her services. Her marketing approach emphasizes community involvement and relationship building, including active participation in chambers of commerce, women's leagues, and nonprofit organizations. This community-focused strategy generates referrals and word-of-mouth recommendations that have become the cornerstone of her business growth.

Beyond her professional life, Laura maintains a balance through competitive tennis, family gatherings, and community involvement. Her support of Christ Haven, a local nonprofit in Keller that she's been involved with since 2011, demonstrates her commitment to giving back to her community. This balanced approach to life informs her business philosophy, where each client interaction is treated with care and respect, recognizing that behind every document is a real person experiencing a significant moment in their life.

Laura emphasizes that her service goes beyond mere document certification – she helps secure private information during pivotal life events. Whether it's a parent signing university forms for their child, elderly individuals finalizing their estates, or businesses protecting their assets, each document represents an important transition. By treating every appointment with attention and care, Laura ensures clients feel confident their documents are legally protected and secure from fraud, providing peace of mind during important life changes.
