ABC,
I do want to become a commissioned producer. I have been doing some research and the norm right now for young producers seems to be a salary+small commission. It remains that way for about 24 months. At that time, the salary is removed or decreased greatly . What is a reasonable salary, with a 15-20% cut in mind for new business?

I cannot answer that as I have never hired anyone salary + commission. Most producers will work off a draw for the first 6 months.

Maybe you should sit down with your agency and ask them what options you have with them. Tell them what you want to do and see what they say. The fact that you want to sell should make the agency happy!
