One of the reasons marketers set a goal to get promoted in their career, is to earn a higher salary.

But are you perhaps waiting longer than you need to, to earn more? Particularly if you're in a Manager role and ready to step up to a Director job?  If you've been waiting for one particular Director role to open up so you can apply, then you might just be missing other opportunities to earn a higher salary much sooner.

In this episode I share 3 ways to earn a Director salary faster by finding other ways to get that Director promotion.

I use a scenario for what you could be earning in a faster timeframe relative to what you might be earning now.  So you can see the advantage to choosing career move options that will pay you more sooner.
