SALARY NEGOTIATION
Salary negotiation strategies are important when deciding the salary and benefits you want to earn. If you're not plugged in to the right social circles, you're locked out of tribal knowledge on pay compensation and it's a huge disadvantage.
Negotiating your salary when going for a new job or a raise is a critical skill to make sure you get paid what you deserve, yet it is a topic that makes most everyone anxious. Before you can master salary negotiation tips and tricks, you first have to be in the right mindset.
When you assess a job offer, it's essential to review the new hire package in its entirety. It often comes with many other perks than the salary. A good understanding of all the possibilities can help you pick a compensation plan that suits you (and your family).
Benefits are important because they answer personal needs and therefore increase your job satisfaction. You might find your position more gratifying when, for instance, your schedule is in harmony with your lifestyle (work-life) or when you receive incentives that motivate you.

Always search and compare salaries across jobs and locations. Know your worth and you first have to be in the right mindset.
When Should You Negotiate:
🔹️Your performance review (you negotiate a raise and/or non-financial compensation – you can initiate this process if your employer doesn’t already do reviews)
🔹️Your role has outgrown your responsibilities
🔹️Transitioning into a new job
Tips for the salary negotiation:
🔹️Have a range in mind, rather than a number. This gives you and the company more flexibility, and you’re likely to end up within the middle to high end of the range.
🔹️Requesting benefit—such as employer-paid health insurance, retirement contributions, and achievement-based bonuses—if your company’s less willing to negotiate on salary. Benefits may end up saving you more in the long run.
Whether it’s the fear of being perceived as pushy or feeling uncomfortable about the negotiation process, many people are hesitant when it comes to salary negotiation. Make it a goal this year to earn the salary you deserve.
