A Sales Comp Guide, a Poem, and a Poll ๐Ÿ‘€

This week we launched our first-ever Sales Compensation Guide, a snapshot of todayโ€™s market that lets you dive into the weeds of sales comp by role, experience level, city, region, and more.


Whether youโ€™re happy with where youโ€™re at or youโ€™re looking for your next gig, itโ€™s crucial to know what youโ€™re worth and make sure you get paid fairly.


To commemorate this launch, we decided to celebrate the way War Room users express themselves the best: with a poem (who knew we had so much unbridled literary talent?!).


That Sales Compensation Guide, though.

Oh, how I wish before I did know.

Now itโ€™s time to collect the dough,

to a new company, I must go.


But some of us seem to know how it works,ย 

and are happy with where they currently lurk.

So happy am I for those rare gems,ย 

and soon, I know, Iโ€™ll be one of them.

https://bravado.co/salaries Bravado Bravado is a community for the worldโ€™s top sales professionals. Join the War Room today to become the best with the best.

Real talk: How are you feeling about your current comp after seeing the guide?

Either SaaS is in a bubble (it definitely is) or the salaries - specifically the medians - in this look a little low. Also no way Chicago is paid higher than SF/NY

Find the next bubble. Maybe AI by that point, especially at the rate Boston Dynamics is moving

Yeah, I noticed the median seemed low, but I wasn't sure if that was just me.

Iโ€™ve never been so disappointed to be happy at my current company lol if that makes sense. Now I know Iโ€™m underpaid by a good $50k.

I feel for my company because I think they do a fair job comping people, but with inflation running so hot it seems near impossible for my company to pay me what I could get by going to a new employer.ย

I'm actually very happy with my rate, even though it's underpaid by US standards, in Colombia I've stepped into a very comfortable living, I've gotta get after it and start bringing more numbers to continue to do so.

So yeah, I'm stepping it up, and hopefully, get enough experience to earn the big boy numbazย

Definitely interesting to see these results. Like some others have said, I thought that the numbers seems a bit low...ย
