What exactly is the job description for an account manager?

Hello. I have been working for a Marketing firm for the past six months doing translation work and it appears that they really like the ideas and slogans I have come up with. So much so, that the President has invited me to a business lunch to discuss my becoming an account manager with their firm. Please, what exactly does an account manager do in marketing and what is the salary that they command? Thank you for all your help!

At an outset would like to congratulate for your achievement. It is really a big thing that president has invited you for business lunch. keep it up.


A/C manager is very responsible position where you will be handling a certain set of clients who give repetitive business to your company. The plethora of your activities will revolve around servicing those clients. You need to generate inquiries from them and then provide solutions based on the brief. Well it is very responsible position and you need to work really hard b'coz these are the clients who have already seen the quality deliver-ables from your company so you their is a fixed expectations build with in the business, you need to stand up to their expectations level and then perform.


Well salary will vary but definitely you can ask for 20-25% increment on your current package. you can justify it by saying the same thing which i have mentioned above.





All the best
Reply:Depending on how big the firm you work for is it could also be looking after the key accounts for the company. Accounts is another word for customer.
Reply:Well, you'd be better off asking your boss, but typically an account manager is a business-to-business salesperson. Usually (at least in the mortgage industry) there is no salary, it is 100% commission, perhaps with a small draw.





Good luck!
