Think doing great work alone guarantees a big salary hike? Think again. Performance matters, but so do market trends, company budgets, internal politics, and your negotiation skills.
Here’s how to increase your chances of a better raise:
💡 Know your market value – Research industry salaries for your role and experience.
💡 Track your impact – Keep a record of your contributions, cost savings, and revenue impact.
💡 Time it right – Salary discussions are best when budgets are planned (not after hikes are decided).
💡 Negotiate smartly – Be prepared with data, stay professional, and don’t be afraid to ask!
Your work gets you in the room, but your strategy gets you the number you want.
