Curious normal commission payouts as a 1099 advisor part of an RIA. Currently I see net payouts starting at 40-50% and moving up to 80%+ of gross commission. (AUM, insurance, BD products). I know a lot of factors go into it, but trying to get an average lay if the land.

There is no normal in this space. It’s going to depend on many factors. One big factor is what you pay for…. If you pay for all your overhead, you are probably going to be in that 80-90% range. If you just show up to work, don’t own your book, and don’t pay for anything, it’s probably going to be closer to the 40-50%…. Also can depend on whether you are a lead advisor that is bringing in assets, or if you are a support advisor.

Also, an RIA is not going to have BD products. They are going to be fee-only. Are you thinking more of an independent advisor that can do both?

What role do you see yourself in? Do you have an RIA you are talking to?

Awesome thanks for the input!

We're 50% below $10mm AUM in fee based. 60% at $20mm, and 70% at $30mm, the 1% increase every $10mm past that, with cap at 90%.

This job is a lot better if you don't care about the bonus and hours requirement. I can pretty easily bill 1700 hours annually and my firm so far hasn't cared in the slightest. Worrying about hitting 2000 hours for the bonus used stress me out so much, and I just don't think it's worth it. Base salaries are ridiculous and way more than enough to finance my lifestyle.

The Way to a Higher Salary? Leave.

If I had stayed in the role I was in originally and grown with it, I’d be making maybe $120k, best case. I also wouldn’t have broken 6-figures in under 4 years by waiting.

The biggest lie that companies tell you is you can grow in a firm, both professionally and financially. The only ones that grow are already the people a) getting the promotions, or b) on the sales side.

If neither applies to you, the fastest way to achieve salary growth is to leave.

Should I Go Back and Reneg? Recently I was offered a role as a Project Implementation Manager (In Retirement Services) .The salary range for Colorado residents was 65-89K. I’m located in NY so the recruiter said he would try to get me more. Ultimately he came back at 90K which is a bit inline with that I was seeing on Glassdoor but approx looks like I may leave 10-12K on the table. I accepted already but may get an offer from another HR company in account management around 90-100K. Need advice

Total Experience:8 years IBM

When I moved in-house a year ago as a BigLaw mid-level, I took a 45% pay cut, far more than I was comfortable with (although I was fine with a 20-30% cut). I took the job because it was a great role and I was focused on making the jump in house and developing the skills I wanted, which required me moving away from my firm practice area. Now that my year-end review is coming up, how do I ask my company for a significant pay raise (not just a 2-5% inflation-matching raise)?
