If you have that much business you are sending agents i'd get licensed and then just place your license with a referral agency so you don't have to pay the regular dues and can still collect a referral fee

To really know the result, I'd need to be advertising two identical properties -- one with a premium listing and another with a regular listing.Does anyone have experience that clearly shows a result from using a premium listing?
