For a newly minted strategy director in NYC with 9 years experience, is asking for $150k ($160ish total comp) too little? It would be a 20% bump, so seems fair.

Depends on how much you like the person to stay. If you know that level is paid more outside, it doesn't matter if it is a 20% bump... if they are looking and if others can offer more outside for the exact same job, then you're out of luck.

It's the market that dictates supply and demand, not the % increase.

I think it’s very fair. My title is Director, CRM Strategy and I have almost 20 years experience, but I’m only at $163K in my current role. (I’m grossly underpaid for the value and expertise I bring to the table.) Don’t make my mistake. Get the experience and jump in another 2-3 years for more opportunities and more money.

Depends on the shop and your expertise. For straight brand planning that’s about right.

But at a big global agency I would expect about 175k.

I’m ~225k but I run an entire group (we don’t have the gsd title).

I’m brand (sf tech startup) side, so this might be less relevant, but new directors make 140-150k base + 15-25% bonus. After 1-2 years as director, 180-225k OTE

That’s fine, you can ask for a little more if you want.

Why does a director of demand generation do? Is that media strategy?

@director 2 I’m responsible for delivering Marketing qualified leads and pipeline to sales using organic and paid acquisition programs and channels. I am also responsible for (visual) content programs (whitepapers, webinars, email, ads, etc.) across customer journey, marketing KPIs, budget and people.

I was brand side —> agency —> brand side

Ah cool! Sounds like a growth hacker. Do you get performance bonus

Your making $125k as an AMD? 😱

What’s normal for an AMD?

@director2 yes. I get base + 23% bonus. Most startups usually use ~20% for bonus. My base is on the low side so my bonus is greater than standard

That seems right for a new Director, gives room to grow within the role salary wise

Hi I have asked to be an advisor for a startup. Its in its very early stage pre pre-seed. Its looking like weekly strategy calls and possibly some executional work as well. Like building out a sales process and/or training sales and marketing team members (this might be 1-3hr a week of work).

They are offering 1.5-3.5%. — I am wondering if that’s enough.

In addition to this the founder mentioned that he would like me to consider becoming a co-founder.

How do you best leverage a job offer when you don’t want to leave? In the running for a VP job (higher level than now) that pays $70k higher than what I currently make. I want to ask for more money, but don’t want them to see me as a flight risk or that I am not loyal anymore. Or my bigger fear is they’ll say they cannot offer me any more and then I feel like I have egg on my face. Any tips for delicately balancing this?

Hey folks. Question for the majority of us still under the big 3 holding co’s...are raises a thing anymore?

I also recognize being somewhere 5 years is rare these days. The honeymoon period at any agency seems to be 2.5—3yrs before bolting. Not complaining, just asking. Have y’all been getting raises/bumps in any kind of regular cycle? Thx.
