Fresh thread for a rate check amongst us producers?

I want a raise but think agencies will scoff. At $1200 and want to bump up to $1300.

17 yrs broadcast/video, some awards, agency, brand and post experience.

What city are you in in and who’s paying that high - are you still in ad agency world?

agency world - NYC
brand world - Bay Area

However, agencies in all major markets have been checking in and luckily, location is relatively a non-factor for the near future as WFH persists.

Hoping to get more insight from this group to see how everyone else is faring.

$1000/day at Brand in NYC - highest I’ve ever gotten.

NYC, $1200

Seems like we’ve finally come into our own as producers! What kind of rates is everyone getting? Share what level and what City you’re in please!

Happy New Year Fishies! Pinning this post and inviting everyone to share what rates you are getting now, please include level of experience and what city you work in.

20+ Years. Worked in every product category except pharma. Chicago. $900/day. Too low?

Good luck??? That’s what I get in Chicago and everywhere else for the last 4 years. Time for a raise.

How long does the background study take? I'm guessing admin staff have a study that is faster and less complicated than someone in Tax ect.

When training at home what did you need that wasn't supplied by RSM? My home office is well stocked but I want to be as prepared as possible.

Thanks in advance!
