125k—150k. Nothing less.
In Austin the range is so wide. Some agencies are paying crap, others really well. Senior role should be in the 78-80k range at the very least though.
Austin senior cw here (12 years exp)... it’s all over. I’ve made more contracting but salaries are by the company. I’ve literally had to show recruiters screen shots of competitor salaries to get more than initial offering. It would be a rare gem to get $125+. Good luck
Agree with freelancer 1 for Austin for someone in the 5-7 years of experience range. More if you’re over 7 years.
10 years ago in NYC the going salary for Senior copywriter was $85 - $100k.
And now? You guessed it, $85 - $100k. Only today it doesn’t go nearly as far as it used to. I feel bad for anyone trying to get into this business
Anyone have a salary range for a cw in Portland (4-5 years exp)
What city?
@Freelance Contract 1: Austin
Sounds right to me. Thx!
Thank you all!
