Reply to "Paying an Agent"

I am not so sure it is a question of your services being devalued as it is a learning process of the industry you work in. Most everyone enters into this situation without the real experiences of the business of baseball thru a potential draft scenario. It is at the point when some players are identified as prospects that they are solicited by Agents to employ their services at which time questions concerning fees arise. By nature of your competetive business fees typically range from 3 to 5 percent. Others bill hourly some bill for a percentage over the intial offer. I think that because these two elements are at play a majority of time it brings with it a comparison shopping format which may make it feel as though your services are coming into question when the validity of fees needs to be qualified.

Out of the 2004 draft eligible players you are attempting to work with this year how many of them called you first? For the most part readers here at this site are no different from the high school prospect who has found his name within the list of top 200 players and is now receiving calls and packets to sway him to employ someone at the appropriate time. It is all new and with that come questions.
