SEMPO is running a short in-house SEM survey to get more information about the "salary and structure of in-house marketing teams," according to their blog announcement.
Why a survey? There's too much guesswork when it comes to in-house SEMs.
Urban legends of someone who knew someone who got a $300,000 a year job mixed with stories of large companies looking to hire a director of search marketing for $80,000 a year, [SEMPO co-chair Duane Forrester] said.
But don't worry, your answers are confidential.
The survey is still in process and SEMPO plans to release the results in November, so if you are an in-house marketer and want to provide your input, take the 20-question survey.
