Salary?
 
And how much is that. We’re a very forthcoming bunch.

I am the Design Director here, but I do not handle that aspect. Usually this is discussed once an offer is made, so I can't give a number. Sorry.

Qualified candidates are more likely to apply if you give a ballpark number. There is a massive difference in candidates if your offering 24k vs 100k. Especially when quick google search turns up that the median home cost there is over 5 times my current mortgage. I need at least a 12k per year raise to be able to afford my standard of living there. There is a reason why http://offstagejobs.com/ now requires a salary with their postings.

Good luck though, sounds like a fun place to work (not being sarcastic, it actually does sound like an interesting work load).
