I am someone that does this task, plus other labor and was curious what the average rate of pay for someone of this position. It is a somewhat touchy subject in the sense that I am the first person to do this job at my place of work, so I am just seeing if anyone else has a guy like myself at their dealership.


The responsibilities that I have are:


- Photography of each vehicle

- Cleaning the photo booth

- Custom vehicle comments/descriptions (website)

- Photoshop each photo for maximum quality (average of 30 per vehicle)

- Posting vehicles to Craigslist

- Web banners (slideshow on homepage)

- Print ads and all other graphic design within the business

- Coordinating with TV advertisers (graphics/logos)

- Stationary design

- Facebook, Twitter, YouTube updates

- Basic IT trouble shooting in the sales dept.

- Window stickers

- Occasional online pricing updates

- Customer assistance when all sales reps are occupied

- Website maintenance (Dealer.com drag and drop style)

- Video uploads to our website

- Updating online specials

- Creating Excel charts

- Web traffic analysis

- Autotrader and Cars.com maintenance

- Test leads within Dealer.com website

- Washing vehicle exteriors if they are dirty before photographing

- Misc. tasks


I typically do about 30 vehicles per week and work 50-60 hours. What would somebody like myself typically get paid?


Thanks.
