Savages: I'm a Senior AE in Enterprise Sales (within that I'm more strategic AE focused mostly Fortune 100 global selling efforts $1M+ contracts in some cases) for a tech company with a current comp plan of 150k base/150k variable (I expect to beat this and hit accelerators if I stay in my current role) for a $300k OTE. My comp is based on a combo of net new client acquisition, expansion deals in current companies, and renewals which I get comped at 50% of the net new rate.
I've been approached by our VP of sales expressing interest in making me the RVP of Sales overseeing our sales reps for half of Canada and half of the US (prob around 7-8 reps total once we are done hiring and this role becomes official and needed). I told them I was interested.
I've been in Enterprise complex highly technical sales roles now for 7-8 and consistently am the #1 or #2 rep in the company in my first year. I've only been in my current role for a few months but I've worked for this leadership team in the past that is looking to offer me the role. This would likely not happen until Q1.
I am trying to figure out based on all of this information what an appropriate comp offering would look like. I also don't know what else to ask for that RVP's usually get that individual reps wouldn't be used to getting or know to ask for. Would love some advice!
