A tentative question

General
Does anyone here have any advice for offering writing commissions? I don;t want to offer these just yet, but I've been thinking about offering them some time in the future, and I'd like to get some advice now.
My big question is this: How much of the plot do I control, and how much do I leave up to the commissioner? If I keep to much control, then I run the risk of the story not being how the commissioner wanted it. If I give too much to the commissioner, than they'd be writing the story themselves, and I'd be charging money for doing nothing.
So yeah, just a tentative journal post for the hell of it.
