Default Re: Jay Abraham, Referrals, Passive Income

Millard,
You would of course setup that salesperson on a 1099 bias.

That is how a lot of the these SAAS companies grow so fast...like Russel Branson's "Click Funnel". Affiliates get paid every month for sales that are made.

Jay indicates that you can find anyone with the skills you lack to do the things you want to do more effectively. He suggests paying someone an on-going 10% forever to do the things you want to keep them going forever.

I was thinking that this concept has a more merit than actually hiring someone outright. To be clear, Jay suggests paying the 10% as long as the project is working, making money.

You would think it might work out like this for a sales person... You find a sales person who is already selling and working with small business owners in your area. You pay the salesman 10% of all sales you make to local business owners. If you have an on-going payment plan from an owner, the salesman continues to get 10% of what the owner pays you as their payment.

The payments continue as long as the business owner is a client.

Does this idea of referrals with on-going payments make sense in a way to work with folks to get them to refer business to you? Would this work with salesmen?

Now to be even more clear, I am suggesting a sale to a business owner for consulting services, not just a referral ! The salesman is the one making the sale for consulting!

The problem I see is the paperwork and actually having to hire the salesman with all the legalese, safeguards, etc. However, there has got to be a way to make Jay's concept of passive income work without having the pains of actually hiring someone to go out selling.

Does this make sense or am I reading Jay's concepts in too simplistic ways?
