Default Re: Would you pay commission?
Hmm, this reminds me of the way that temp and staffing services operate. I've never been in a situation where I was expected to pay for a referral, so I'm not exactly up to speed on how it works, but like Jo Carole, I'd be concerned about what happened if the VA/client relationship didn't work out.
Plus, I'd think that you yourself would need to raise your rates by the 20% in order for it to be a financially positive situation for you.
I don't think I personally would feel comfortable entering into this type of situation.
