What's the normal fee that an entertainer would pay an "agent"?
 

This lawyer who wants to shop my talk show is proposing ten percent of the gross of any deals made with him or his contacts...Is that too much?

I believe, and I could be wrong, but normal "agent fee" is somewhere between 15-20%.

:pimp

what southpark episode 903

btw, are they called the super terrific talent agency?

i have heard 10% of gross or 20% net.

10-20 % depending ... here in QC most artist pay 15

10% sounds fair to me.

That seems very fair

My cousins are all news anchors and they pay 10-15% It's pretty interesting - they get little coupon books with the amount due on them they pay every month :)

He's an entertainment lawyer who graduated from my Alma Mater's law school.

10% is standard

10-15% is avg i think

in California, its 10% maximum by law....can be higher in other states....that's why a lot of big talent agents become managers out here - there is no maximum % for managers.
