Base Salary Negotiation Strategy
Budget: $15 – $25 USD
My goal is to secure a higher base salary with my current employer, and I need a clear, data-backed strategy that highlights the added responsibilities I’ve taken on over the past year. The assignment is straightforward: develop a concise negotiation plan I can use in an upcoming meeting with my manager.
Please include:
• A brief script (or bullet-point talking guide) that ties my new responsibilities to measurable business value.
• Market comparison data—sourced from reliable tools such as LinkedIn Salary, Payscale, or Glassdoor—showing what professionals in similar roles and locations typically earn.
• A one-page summary I can email ahead of the meeting that outlines my achievements, expanded duties, and a reasonable salary range to request.
Acceptance criteria: the plan must be grounded in current market figures, clearly connect my expanded scope of work to tangible outcomes, and remain professional in tone.
