I’m thinking of making the move from sales to a CSM type role in the software world. Can anyone share what average base and OTE look like for a MM or ent CSM? I have about 10 YOE in software sales. I know the pay will be a drop off, but curious as to how much. Thanks all!

Unsure if this helps. I was a CSM for Westland distributing where I made $71,000 total compensation ($6,000 was commission). I had no experience in CSM, but 10 years of accumulative experience in sales, marketing and ecommerce. I worked there for 3 months and have now used that experience to be interviewing with companies that are between $70-90,000 per year with just 3 months of CSM experience. Experienced CSM’s can make $100k+ such as in leadership roles. I’d suggest looking into a boot camp or a short training course like certified scrum master which it seems like a lot of CSM positions are requesting. I hope this helps!

If this also helps, I’m 25 and have no degree. So if you have a degree that would be more beneficial to you.

I would also be curious as to what this pay would look like at a large tech company.

Interesting Data. Seems like lower income Republicans are divided about opening up while Dems in general worry about opening too soon.
