Junior copywriter in nyc making 58.5k. In one year, I’ve had four projects produced incl two tv campaigns. I’ve also been in two pitches. With this info, what would be a fair salary to negotiate?

You’re already on the higher end of the jr range. But you could probably move agencies and get a nice bump.

OP: Are you basing this belief on what you've actually seen/heard around your agency? Because otherwise, unfortunately, the reason to believe you won't get a raise where you are is that most people bump their salaries by moving agencies. If your agency actually pays raises and gives good opportunities, then good on you.

I think inevitably you’ll have to move, but asking them to drop the “junior” from the title and maybe $70K as a reach can’t hurt, but if you’ve only been in business one year that’s a big reach no matter how much work you’ve produced.

It won’t. Always ask for more.

Good time to make a move. And get a bump.

Hey fishes, completed 3 tech rounds at Bosch.

On 22nd Nov, got a call from the consultant at taggd who has been arranging all my interviews. Told my expected CTC and she seemed a bit surprised but didn't negotiate and asked if I have any other offers? I asked when can I expected the OL, she said within a week but didn't take any documents. Can I expect the OL?

I started in my first SDR position in a small SaaS start up few months ago. I am the only SDR and their first ever.
The base salary is ok but I haven’t received any commission structure up to this day.
I book an average of 3-5 demos per week. People always show up, but the thing that worries me is that I do not have a way to track how many meetings I book in our CRM,and to be honest I feel like I didn’t get the best training overall. Should I start looking somewhere else? Thoughts?

Thanks

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.

An agency I freelance for wants to hire me full-time. They told me for a Sr Copywriter, 100-110k. I countered with 125-150.

I also said I'm interested in a higher-level title - I currently freelance as a Creative Director of Copy elsewhere (they don't have that title at this agency.)

They came back and said yes to the title and to 125, with a 6 month review that could raise it to 145.

Which is good for Sr Copy, but low for CD/ACD level. Don't want to screw myself over. What to say now?
