I have done work in the past for as low as 30%.

50% is good.

Anytime I ever went to 50% I regretted it.

50% is reasonable, yes it's his gas and chemicals, but you likely have invested more into obtaining and retaining your customers.  Sometimes meeting half way solves these disagreements, maybe suggest %60.]]> Fri, 01 Apr 2011 16:42:46 +0000 https://www.kleenkuip.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=6958&PID=163200&title=suggested-pay-for-hired-carpet-cleaner#163200 <![CDATA[Suggested Pay for hired carpet cleaner : I have a carpet cleaner associate...]]> https://www.kleenkuip.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=6958&PID=163192&title=suggested-pay-for-hired-carpet-cleaner#163192 Author: peculiar

I have a carpet cleaner associate who is looking for additional work and I am willing to give him my excess jobs.
I offered to give him 50% commission on each job because I have gotten these clients from my efforts..
He told me he wants 70% because it's his gas, transportation and energy.
I told him I'm prepared to give him 50% and he gets to keep any money from upselling.
 
Am I being unreasonable or is he asking for too much?
