So at my company any joint work is automatically 50/50 split unless otherwise stated and approved by the sales manager.
I am working on my dad's policy to carve him out an executive bonus plan for his company via whole life.
Were talking a $15,000 commission check. Since I'm new, I get 91% on top of whatever cut I get.
The guy helping me out on this has some time into this, but no more then 4 hours at best. In my contract it says its automatically split 50/50 unless otherwise agreed upon and approved by sales manager.... Im a little annoyed because this is my family member who wouldn't be doing this if I wasn't the agent. The guy helping me never mentioned a split until after he drew everything up, I assumed he was just giving it to me since its family and its my 3rd application.
Not only will he take $7500, I'll also not be getting another $6825 because I only get financed on what I receive after the split.
My dad asked how the commission worked and hes appalled that this other guy gets 50% for sitting on the damn phone and clicking some numbers into an illustration. In my dads eyes, he could of paid an hourly fee based planned $1000 to come up with this and then come buy it straight off me with no help.
I think a more fair split would be 80/20. He still gets paid $3k he would of never had without me, plus the 20% of the renewal forever. However I am hesitant to bring this up and not sure if I am out of line.
Another thing I thought would be fair is if he leaves me 100% commission on paper that way im financed the full $13650 instead of $6825, but still cut him half of the FYC ($7500) with a check, but is that even legal?
Again Im hesitant to ask because I am to new to know if I am out of line or not. The other side of this could easily say well I'll be in the joint work specialist shoes one day and itll makeup for it then....
Should I straight up ask him how were splitting this, and just be blunt and say I don't think thats really fair if he says 50/50?
