Moving from New York to a small market- how should I handle giving them a salary to take into consideration the massively lower cost of living?
It’s a promotion-should I just barely increase my price?

Just tell them you’re moving there to really ball the fuck out with a big ass small market salary so you can join a small market country club and buy a giant as balls small market house with a small market three car garage and heated pool. And someday maybe afford a couple small market kids and a small market dog or two. And close with something like, “If I wanted to be poor i could just stay in NYC, you know?”

Congrats. You’re quality of life is going up, regardless of where your salary negotiations take you.

I’d say it depends on their billings (clients) and your worth to them. Cost of living is less relevant.

Haha sounds good- how can I tell if it’s decent, though?

For example clients with higher profit margins have bigger marketing budgets like tech sector or healthcare, or clients in highly competitive environments like pharma or fashion/apparel.
