Channel partner AE salary in NYC?

Looking at moving into a position where I'd be running the channel partnerships for a whole region & new territory that needs to be built out (e.g. continent). Offer came in a lot lower than expected, OTE is slightly over 100 & base is mid-70's. I looked at builtinNYC & Glassdoor and found the median salary for NYC to be significantly higher and they said if I could share the resources I found with them they can take a look (and assumedly increase range). anyone a) have any advice how to get them to understand living costs in NYC a bit better and bump up the range to something I can work with b)know that salary calculator site that Corp promotes on his Insta sometimes?

Thanks all, Happy Friday
