How much do AMs make?
5 replies (most recent on top)
To frame it appropriately, AMs have a fairly low base salary (50-60% of their SA counterparts). The AM commission plan is highly leveraged, and AMs have a total target number at 100% attainment of the quota. After hitting 100% of the plan, accelerators kick in. This is where the real money is made. Additionally, AMs can occasionally earn SPIFFs.
BUT - make no mistake, if you don’t sell, you don’t earn. And I’d you don’t sell for long periods, you are out of here.
- LOT.
Starting AMs in the US, which for the most part are participants of the recent college grad program make ~$160k. There are 3 different AM grades, each with their own earning bands,
no AM I ever worked with in 20 years made below 300k , most make over 500 , just work till they miss two quarters and cash out , go work for a VAR or SP, retire early, they have it made.
Big range. AM1, 2, 3, etc.
