What do you think is reasonable for a high level AD bringing business to an agency. My past is 5% of revenue for first year, after that gets fuzzy. Some also do first project but that seems like opportunity for getting screwed.

5% of revenue in the first year? You aren't working for a multinational agency, right? :)

Yeah good luck with that.

I have a partner who routinely ignores emails or responds to them several weeks later. He has to approve every single document sent to the client or the court, which means you have a physically go to his office to ask him to review something. Half of the time you go to meet with him in person, he’s either on a call or otherwise busy. I find that this basically creates more work and makes meeting deadlines extremely difficult. Is this normal?
