Negotiation kit

Know your number. Say it clearly.

Build an evidence-based counter offer, then edit the email, WhatsApp message, and call plan until they sound like you.

Your context

Build the request

Use recurring annual compensation, excluding one-time bonuses.

Analyze Offer First

Enter the offer and your strongest evidence.

Do not bluff

Use only skills, competing offers, and market evidence you can support honestly.

Negotiate the structure

Ask about fixed pay first, then joining bonus, variable mix, equity, leave, or joining date.

Keep a private floor

Your minimum acceptable amount is for planning. Your opening request should be higher.

Get it in writing

Do not rely on a verbal revision. Review the updated offer before accepting.
