Hi All, what do you feel is an adequate ration for base salary vs commission? I know this can vary a lot from city to city, but for someone just starting out as a BDR - what can they expect? Thanks!

For BDRs it’s typically 60/40 or 70/30. If you want to drive more outbound efforts and reward top performers, id recommend 60/40 so they can accelerate their commission

Hello All,

I recently got a job working as a BDR for an enterprise rep. We sell a SaaS product for other tech companies. It is a new realm for me as I have been primarily an AE throughout my career.

Thanks for the help!
