Harry, welcome to sales. So if this guy brought you say a job a month you wouldn't give him anything? It would be like he is working for you on a commission only basis, you don't pay him unless he brings you business. I don't see anything wrong with that, wish I could get someone to do my marketing for me.

Harry,

I agree most of the responses; I don't see anything wrong with paying a bird dog fee. I certainly don't see why your so upset that he offered to help bring you business and I think maybe you jumped the gun. As far as what you already pay him for your meat, I assume he provides a good service at a fair price and if so, I don't see what one has to do with the other. You may have just lost a good source of business. I hope your competition doesn't take him up on the offer.
