What is a typical salary for a co-head of sales at a pre-seed startup valued in the $15M range?

Responsibilities include:
Personal quota and team quota
BDR training and development
Content & Social Media
Establishing referral network
Lead Gen

We have limited marketing, no automated lead generation processes, minimal content and no solidified referral network. All of this could take a month to set up as a means to replace me as a sales rep, but I am not being allowed any timeframe to do so.

I gotta ask - if these are your responsibilities in a company that's valued at $15MM (which means you're doing maybe $2 - 3MM/annum, why do they need two (2) people to run sales? Also, if you're doing all these things, what does the other guy do - watch you do them?

This is an excellent question...

I will clarify that my personal quota is the most immediate of my job responsibilities, and all of the other responsibilities are "extra" initiatives I've been told we can take on as a company with me spearheading. My problem with this is there is no path out of the personal quota, as with our mostly manual process, it takes me most of the workday to produce my minimum number of meetings, etc. and little time for the other efforts, which is what I'm truly passionate about. Is it also typical for a head of sales to carry a quota? Keep in mind our sales team is only 5 people at the moment.

Is co-head equivalent to VP?

I was promoted early this year from an assistant “hourly” role to a managerial “salary excempt” role, but my old job hasn’t been replaced and it’s been 5 months. It’s an unfair workload and assisting someone else takes up so much time that I can’t learn and develop in the managerial role. And I find myself constantly working overtime and not getting paid fairly, even with the pay raise I got when I was promoted. I want to send my employer an email saying they’re in violation of FLSA.
