Got promoted from SDR to Sales Associate in a small SaaS. A quick search online says the average salary for this position in NY is 83k base. I need to negotiate it today…
Thoughts? Tips? Help me get it :)

Come equipped with data! Where did you pull 83k from? I'd bring a print out or email your source/s to hiring manager if needed. Remember to take into account your YOE so you aren't too far off the average. You should also have a look at the commission structure, benefits, etc.

If you think that you value more than the amount being offered, then go for it. Try to bring the numbers up.

Where did you get that information? For a more junior sales executive role, a base salary of 40k to 50k is more realistic. What type of accounts would you cover?

I think you can start from $60k as your max range. But even if you negotiate for $83k and they reject it, you are still within the right range. Good luck!
