What is the median salary for a CRM?

The median pay for a CRM is $105,000, based on 663 salaries. The median is the middle of the market: half the figures are higher and half are lower. We calculate it from pay ranges in marketing job ads and salaries marketers shared with us. Most figures come from job ads, which usually show base pay only.

What is the difference between base pay and total compensation?

Base pay is your fixed annual salary. Total compensation adds bonus, commission, and equity on top. For a CRM we add bonus and equity wherever marketers shared them. Job ads usually list base pay only, so treat the figures as close to base pay.

What do CRM professionals earn at the high and low end?

Most CRM pay falls between $80,000 and $135,500, the middle 50% of the market. The top 10% earn $184,800 or more. Use the full range, not just the median, when you set your anchor.

How current is this salary data?

We update this page as new marketing job ads and shared salaries come in, so each number reflects the latest data rather than a stale annual survey.
