1 Identify your strengths

Before you ask for a promotion, you need to know what you can offer to your employer. Review your past achievements, projects, and feedback, and identify your strengths and areas of improvement. How have you contributed to the success of your team, department, or organization? What skills have you developed or improved? What problems have you solved or prevented? How have you shown initiative, leadership, or creativity? Write down your accomplishments and quantify them with numbers, percentages, or testimonials if possible.

I don't know if it happens regularly but in my case people don't want to be promoted and in the end they have to be promoted because they know the company needs very trustworthy people in very key positions.

Preparing for a promotion, I review my achievements, focusing on measurable impacts like client acquisition growth and revenue increases. I document skill enhancements such as improved negotiation techniques and CRM proficiency. Highlighting problem-solving, innovative solutions, and leadership roles in projects demonstrates my initiative and value to the team. Quantifying these achievements with metrics and supporting them with testimonials builds a compelling case for my promotion, showcasing my contribution to the organization's success.

When setting yourself up for negotiating a promotion, you want to be prepared to show why you deserve it. What have you done for the company? Gather all of your achievements and accomplishments to date, any awards you've been given, special commendations, anything that shows your dedication and achievement. Also, you want to show your career growth and development to prove how moving up in your career path will benefit the company. Showing how your skills have improved, or what new skills you've learned is another good topic to include as well. Add testimonials from department heads or peers is a great idea as well!

2 Research the market

Another important step is to research the market and understand the value of your skills and experience. What are the typical qualifications, responsibilities, and salaries for the position you want? How do you compare to other candidates or competitors? What are the current trends and demands in your industry or field? You can use online tools, such as salary surveys, job boards, or industry reports, to gather relevant information and data. You can also network with peers, mentors, or recruiters to get insights and advice.

Aside from the usual ways of conducting market research, another way is to use job applications for similar jobs in other organizations. When a job application is submitted, the recruiter will be the first person to reach out to us. During this initial communication exchange, we could find out the compensation "budget" of the hiring organizations. Take down these notes and soon we will have sufficient market data on salaries, job scope, roles & responsibilities, flexi-working arrangements, etc.

3 Prepare your case

Once you have identified your strengths and researched the market, you need to prepare your case for a promotion. You need to articulate why you deserve a promotion, what you can bring to the new role, and how you can help your employer achieve their goals. You can use the STAR method (Situation, Task, Action, Result) to structure your examples and stories. You should also anticipate any objections or questions that your employer might have, and prepare your responses and counteroffers.

4 Choose the right time

Timing is crucial when you ask for a promotion. You want to choose a moment when your employer is receptive, positive, and open to discussion. You should also consider the performance and situation of your organization, and avoid asking for a promotion when they are facing challenges, crises, or changes. Some good times to ask for a promotion are after a successful project, during a performance review, or when your employer is looking for new leaders or initiatives.

5 Communicate confidently

The final step is to communicate your request for a promotion confidently and professionally. You should schedule a meeting with your employer and give them a heads-up about the topic. You should also dress appropriately, maintain eye contact, and use positive body language. During the meeting, you should present your case clearly, concisely, and respectfully, and highlight your achievements, skills, and value. You should also listen actively, address any concerns, and negotiate your terms and expectations.

Getting that promotion is a power move – treat your experience like a trump card and make sure they know you're not just in the game; you're the game. It's not about asking for a promotion; it's about making them wonder how the company ever survived without elevating you – because let's face it, you're not climbing the corporate ladder; you're installing an elevator.
