The idea is 50/50 on any money regardless (after costs - i.e. my travel costs) - I guess that is very vague and your right... I do need to nail that down into an agreement.
He does have some technical knowledge so will be working on HTML aspects (but has no real knowledge of backend programming meaning Im needed for that). The work will be fair - I've already spoken about that. Yes he might be doing a bit less but (as I mention below) I cant find the clients. He is also in the same city as said clients so he would be the one meeting in person for the most part.
50/50 for the finders fee is quite high but I dont think it's fair to call it that as I couldnt get the contracts w/o him onboard and I wouldnt have the time to make the contacts
This is pretty much his gig - he could probably contract me the work for a lot less but Im not so happy with such an arrangement. 50/50 sounds like an OK deal to me. We have agreed a hrly limit for my work....
In terms of "after completion" work - this is something we agreed to discuss. I think our initial idea was some form of optional agreement with the client to charge a fixed rate for maintenance and whoever does the work gets the money.
What would you consider a fair split?
