Gender Pay Gap Persists in Content Marketing, New Survey From Managing Editor Magazine Finds

Leave a comment


News Image

As things turn around, we hope this survey provides content marketers with the information they need to negotiate pay raises, consider better ways of doing their jobs or find new jobs that better suit their interests and skills.


BATON ROUGE, La. (PRWEB)

Women may dominate content marketing, but they aren’t earning the biggest paychecks, new research by Managing Editor magazine suggests, with the men surveyed earning roughly $10,000 more than the women.

“Content marketers wear a lot of hats, and we know that they do so much more than write or edit. They make complex business decisions tied directly to business goals. They have many different titles — writer, editor, director of content, social media manager — with a wide range of duties. That’s why we decided to launch our first-ever content marketing salary survey,” said Mary Ellen Slayter, publisher of Managing Editor. “We suspected that pay might not be entirely commensurate to the value many of these professionals bring to their organizations.”

The survey asked basic questions about the content marketer’s role at work, the tools they use to manage projects, their career experiences and ambitions, and their pay and bonuses. In total, 164 content marketers participated in the survey, including people working in B2C, B2B nonprofit and government roles. The vast majority of respondents live in the U.S. and Canada.

Survey Highlights

*Survey respondents were highly educated and mostly women. They were also overwhelmingly white, consistent with the general perception of the field not being very diverse.

*Writing, editing and strategy were respondents’ favorite job duties. People reported being a lot less excited about budgeting, social media and vendor management.

*More than half of respondents were eligible for a bonus. The median bonus reported was $6,000 for 2019.

*Respondents are running lean teams. A majority of respondents manage groups of five people or less, whether it’s freelancers or staffers.

*Responses point to a significant gender pay gap — and an even bigger pay differential between B2B content marketers and their B2C peers.

The survey’s release comes with the caveat that it represents data collected before the COVID-19 pandemic. In fact, Managing Editor chose to close out the survey early to protect the integrity of the data; as a result, the survey has a smaller sample size than initially expected.

“This is not the compensation report we wanted to publish,” said Tom Anderson, managing editor of Managing Editor (meta, right?). “The COVID-19 pandemic has dramatically reshaped the economic landscape for content marketing along with everything else in our lives. We know that the data collected in the before times could be meaningless to your career a few months from now.”

“The best way to view this survey is as a snapshot in time,” Anderson added. “Here’s what content marketing careers looked like before the most significant economic challenge since the Great Depression. As things turn around, we hope this survey provides content marketers with the information they need to negotiate pay raises, consider better ways of doing their jobs or find new jobs that better suit their interests and skills.”

As the facility has reopened, Chef Vallerie is proud to be a leading female executive chef at this iconic restaurant.

ABOUT YAMASHIRO

In 1911, the Bernheimer brothers began construction of the hilltop mansion to house their priceless collection of Asian treasures. Hundreds of craftsmen were brought from the Orient to recreate the replica of a palace located in the “Yamashiro” province mountains near Kyoto, Japan. Yamashiro sits 250 feet above Hollywood Boulevard and was completed in 1914. The name Yamashiro translates as “Mountain Palace” in Japanese. After Thomas Glover acquired the property he opened a cocktail lounge in one of the back rooms and charged $1 for membership at the “Hollywood Hill Club.” Due to the bar’s popularity, it kept growing until New Year’s Eve in 1963, when Thomas’s son Tom Glover officially opened Yamashiro as a full-fledged restaurant. Today, in 2020, Sushi and Cal-Asian fare is served amid sumptuous gardens and a koi pond in the Hollywood Hills overlooking the city.

ABOUT CHEF VALLERIE

Born in her grandfather Ramiro Bayangos’ bakery in San Nicholas, Philippines, Chef Vallerie learned the craft of baking the best breads and pastries in town.

Her cooking was always a great source of healing and therapy for both herself and her loved ones.

Lynda Tussey, PhD joins Vaxess Technologies as Chief Development Officer

Leave a comment



CAMBRIDGE, Mass. (PRWEB)

Vaxess Technologies, a preclinical biotechnology company developing a pipeline of vaccines and therapeutics on the MIMIX smart release patch, has recently appointed Dr. Lynda Tussey to the position of Chief Development Officer. Dr. Tussey is a veteran vaccine developer with over twenty years of experience in the field. She brings a wealth of knowledge and expertise in clinical translation that will help advance Vaxess into Phase I clinical trials in 2021.

“Vaccine development is complex, particularly with Vaxess’s ambitious goals of enabling next generation vaccines that are shelf-stable, self-applied, and more protective,” said Vaxess CEO Michael Schrader. “Lynda’s demonstrated success in advancing novel vaccines and therapeutics is perfectly suited for leading Vaxess into Phase I clinical trials next year.”

Dr. Tussey previously worked with Vaxess as a consultant through Crozet Biopharma, where she served as the Head of Immunology and Translational Medicine and was responsible for formulating and implementing nonclinical, translational, and early clinical development strategy. Prior to Crozet, Dr. Tussey held various positions during her 13-year tenure at the VaxInnate Corporation, including Chief Scientific Officer, where she oversaw the discovery and clinical stage activities of the company. Prior to VaxInnate, Dr. Tussey held leadership roles at Purdue Pharma, Merck Research Labs, and GSK.

“I look forward to working with the Vaxess team to advance their MIMIX smart release patch into clinical trials,” said Lynda Tussey, PhD. “Its sustained release properties have the potential to improve vaccine efficacy while the self-applied feature will provide greater access to life-saving vaccines.”

Vaxess is currently developing a seasonal protection patch to deliver vaccines for both COVID and seasonal flu. The patch will use the company’s sustained release MIMIX platform, and offers the only shelf-stable, self-applied approach to addressing an endemic COVID. Dr. Tussey will serve as an invaluable resource as Vaxess advances the MIMIX patch toward clinical trials.

About the MIMIX Smart Release Patch Platform

Medicine delivery, redefined. The MIMIX patch delivers medicines and vaccines through a number of tiny, painless projections that dissolve at a precisely engineered rate, releasing their treatment at its most effective dose for the most beneficial length of time. Vaxess has validated performance and compatibility with a range of molecules including proteins, killed viruses, mRNA, hormones, and live viruses.

More effective medications start with MIMIX. The MIMIX platform dramatically improves efficacy of products across a broad range of therapeutic areas by “mimicking” the prolonged exposure period that occurs during a natural infection. This prolonged exposure triggers a stronger and more enduring immune response.

Seamlessly painless. The MIMIX patch is virtually painless and after wearing it for few minutes, it’s removed from the skin while the medication continues to be delivered.

About Vaxess Technologies

Vaxess Technologies is a biotechnology company headquartered in Cambridge, Massachusetts. The company is developing its proprietary sustained release smart delivery technologies to meet the need for more efficacious and easy to administer medical products.

Charlotte-based leadership advisory firm, Summit Leadership Partners, has been recognized as one of Inc. 5000s fastest growing companies in America in 2020. This prestigious acknowledgement comes just five years after CEO, Dan Hawkins, left a successful corporate career as a trusted advisor and CHRO to pursue a dream of creating a leadership advisory firm that uses advanced behavioral science and real world business acumen to help boards, investors and CEOs scale their business and improve organization performance. Now, Summit Leadership Partners is part of an elite group that, over the years, has included companies such as Intuit, Microsoft, and Patagonia.
