Where the numbers come from
Every number in the report should survive the question "where did that come from?". Here is the answer.
Reported by marketers themselves
62,500+ salary submissions tagged by role, level, and location. Reported numbers, not a survey panel and not a scraped estimate.
Read from the live market
We read marketing job postings every day, so ranges move when the market moves instead of once a year when a report is published.
Checked by a recruiter before it ships
No report leaves on data alone. A recruiter who places marketers every week reads it, compares it against the offers on their desk, and corrects it before you see it.
Built by the people who place marketing talent for a living.
Through Search For Hire, we have placed 150+ marketers and negotiated $15M+ in compensation. We see what marketers actually accept, what makes them leave, and what it takes to keep them. That is the data behind every benchmark.

Recruiting experience
Two reasons people ask for one
Setting pay for a hire
You have a role open and a range you need to defend to finance. You get a number, the sample size behind it, and what the companies you compete with pay, in one document you can forward without rewriting it.
Reviewing what you already pay
You want to know who on the team has drifted below market before they find out first. Send us the roles and levels on your team and we benchmark each one against the live market.
Three steps, 48 hours
Email us the roles
Role titles, levels, locations, and the companies you want to compare against. Josh reads every request himself.
We build it and check it
We pull the benchmark from our marketing pay data, then a recruiter checks it against the offers in front of them and corrects anything that has shifted.
You get it within 48 hours
A finished report, ready to forward to finance or a hiring manager. Questions after it lands? Reply on the same thread.
Frequently asked questions
It depends on how many roles and markets you need covered, so we scope and price each one. Email us what you are looking at and you will get the scope and the number back together.
Salaries reported directly by marketers, plus live marketing job postings we read every day. Every report is then checked by a recruiter who places these roles, so the number reflects what candidates are actually accepting.
Yes. Every benchmark, level, and specialty is tuned to marketing functions and channels. This is not a general HR survey with marketing bolted on.
The subscription is a tool your team runs itself, any time it needs a number. A custom report is a one off document we build and check by hand for a specific set of roles, including a comparison against companies you name. Most people start with a report.
