Default Too Many Leads!!!

Guys I'm about to have more than I can handle. Right now I get about 120 buyer leads monthly via the internet. That number is about to kick up to about 5-600 monthly, in about a 60 mile radius of where I am. I am not familiar with a couple of the areas that the leads will be coming from.
I was going to just charge other agents a referral fee.

What do you guys think is fair as far as referral fees for hot leads i.e. buy within the next month.

I've always asked for and accepted 25% referral fees. I won't pay more than that for a lead because it doesn't seem worth it at the end (I'm not desperate for the business).

I'm looking at that problem too (smaller number of leads) and am looking at bringing someone in under my commission split and giving them a better split than the company does but would also give me greater than 25% of the commission....

Rainbow: This is odd. You asked the same question over a month ago.

I am pretty confused, are these buyers for your racoon business and parental control software? or real estate.
