i generally take someone out to lunch, buy them a beer, carry over
doughnuts one morning or try to reciprocate with a lead. however, i
avoid a finder's fee agreement and merely try to maintain personal
relationships instead of financial relationships.

I have an arrangement with a business person whereby if he
brings me a customer for my compute skills, I give him 1/3
of the final labor fees. This is all on a handshake basis.
Now I'm in the situation where the customer has introduced
me to someone else who wants work. The original business person
has not been involved in any way in this next introduction,
Since I wouldn't have met this next person except for the
original introduction I think it reasonable for the business
person to get some sort of fee, but not the full fee, since
they didn't have to do any work at all. We haven't discussed
this situation, because apparently neither of us thought
about it.
How is this normally handled?
Thanks Joe
