<BR>Did you not offer a bird dog fee/commision for techs who referred clients
<BR>to
<BR>your store?

<BR>
<BR>Yes, I give (gave) a referral fee/commision to teachers and tech who sent in
<BR>customers who bought a piano. This is common, as I can pass that fee on to
<BR>the customer in the form of a higher price for the piano. Commissions for
<BR>sales and referral fees for rebuilding work are two different things.
