Thanks for the article, I’d also suggest that when asking for your raise you consider your total salary package.

Our total salary package also refers to additional bonuses; additional annual leave; education and training expenses; membership to professional associations; the opportunity to work reduced hours or work from home, paid home internet and mobile access, and more.

Another great tactic can be negotiating “If/Then” bonuses – eg. “IF I can receive over 95% in customer satisfaction surveys THEN I receive a 10% pay increase.” This way you can tie your bonus to what matters to your boss and you will be seen as proactive and working towards the same goals.

Thanks for the great comments! And thanks for the link to Simon Stapleton’s article too. I like his questions — and you don’t have to wait to ask them until performance review time.

re #10 – I liked this “get creative” idea from UK-based Simon Stapleton:

“Ask your boss “What can I do to make you more successful?”

(See #5 on his list)

I think being creative and not being defensive are the strongest points.

Being defensive is a trap a lot of people fall into. Or they worry that something they propose might be too off the wall.
