    What is a fair commission on web development/design?

    For example: A person refers a business that gets a $2000.00 web design/development package.


    How much I pay that person that referred the business?

    What should I pay if that same person referred five more businesses?



    Thanks

    I pay 10% to my sales guys who use my leads.

    20% if they get the lead on their own.

    Spend you some brain.

              At least he's smart enough to show his face only on the weekends when there's no one here to ban this nick too.

                10% if you want to be nice

                More if they keep bringing you quality work

                Course, 100 bucks would be totally adequate for a design referral

                      Remember who the person making the statement is.

                            10% sounds about right

                              The numbers I gave above 10% if the leads are supplied and 20% if the lead is generated by the salesperson works quite nicely for us. And that's straight commission, no base salary.
