Negotiating Skills
Listen Now: Negotiating Skills
Negotiating your next job offer, there are more things to consider than just money. I’m Brian Banmiller on Business.
According to TheLadders.com the majority of people accept a job without any attempt to score a better deal. And since no one wants to step up to the negotiating table NPR estimates they are missing out on about $1.5 million over their lifetime. So how do you make sure you are getting exactly what you are worth? According to TheLadders.com there are five things you should always negotiate to receive. For example, a sign on bonus. Because salaries are typically tied to a company’s pay structure, there is more flexibility in the form of a bonus than regular raises. This means managers are more likely to offer you a lump sum sign-on to sweeten the offer. Or additional vacation time. The same idea applies here. Asking for another week or two off is usually something most managers will say yes to instead of a higher salary. For more things to negotiate go to BanmillerOnBusiness.com. Don’t sell yourself short. Brian Banmiller, CBS News.
