out and make yourself valuable.

Double
what you are wanting. Often
employers want to only give you half of what you ask for. Make sure you start out high and you can always negotiate
down.

Shop
competitors in your career field to see what they are paying.

competition is paying more.

your skills and education through any training offered from your
employer. Make sure you
are increasing your skills – it makes you more valuable.

a review does not mean you are getting a raise. If you have a great review – do not be afraid to ask for a
raise. The employer

Make
sure you are taking advantage of everything your employer is
offering that you can. If
they have programs that pay for higher education then use it.
Your employer will be less likely to give you a raise if you
not using all the resources.

might not be able to do a $3.00 raise all at once so set a plan to
accomplish some goals for them and along the way they can bump your
salary.

since the employer does not have to worry about paying you hourly.
