We are beginning plans to advertise for and hire a development person to
raise money for our endowment and some special projects. We've researched
salary for that position, and I've seen a few posts on this List in the last
year concerning the range of salaries. A member of our Board suggested we
offer a commission along with a base salary. That seems to be a standard
practice in some fields. Has anyone heard of that or does anyone's museum
do that? Is there any kind of ethical issue involved? Would any of you
involved in fund raising accept a smaller salary with that option?
