Negotiate a salary offer

draft · verifying asked 185 ways distilled today
  1. 1

    Know the market number first.

    Ranges from postings, salary sites and people in the role. A number you can cite beats a feeling.

  2. 2

    Let them name a figure first.

    Deflect early questions with your researched range, top-anchored, and return the question.

  3. 3

    Never accept in the room.

    "Thank you, I will come back tomorrow." Every offer survives a night; instant yeses cost thousands.

  4. 4

    Counter once, with reasons.

    A specific number tied to market data and your evidence. One clean counter beats haggling rounds.

  5. 5

    Negotiate the whole package.

    When the base is capped: days off, remote share, training budget, review date in six months.

No gear needed. Your pot, a timer and ice are enough. That is the point.
