Wow! Just checked in this morning and found tons of good advice. I'll try to respond to most.

Wayne, I have given him a carrot-on-a-stick. If he brings in a new client, we split the proceeds 50/50. He hasn't brought in new clients in two years. As further motivation, I have even given him (small) clients/jobs to keep for himself.
