Negotiating Your Compensation – Part One
By Ford R. Myers
President of Career Potential, LLC
Let me begin by asking you a few questions:
Have you ever heard people say that they “just can’t do salary negotiating?” Or, that “negotiating compensation makes them uncomfortable?” (Perhaps you’ve even said these things yourself!)
Do you find it easier to negotiate the price of a car, a house, or a business deal than to negotiate your own compensation?
Why is it that people have such a difficult time successfully negotiating their compensation?
The reason we can’t or won’t negotiate is not because we’re incapable of doing this, but rather because we just don’t know how! No one ever taught us how to do it, and we never learned “the rules of the game!”

Do you ever feel like you’ve lost touch with the enthusiasm and passion you once felt about your career?
Remember when you were just starting-out at your first job, or you were a recent graduate? You probably thought you’d be able to get all sorts of jobs; and that every employer would want to hire you. You were excited about your prospects and believed that you had something wonderful to share.
But now that you’ve been in the work-world for quite a while, and have had a series of jobs with several different companies, have you become cynical or resigned in your work-attitude? Are you unsure as to which direction to turn next?
For many years, we have worked via video conference with “long distance” clients (or local clients whose circumstances have made it difficult to visit our offices). Our coaching model allows us to work remotely and still provide exceptional levels of connection, quality and impact. We are happy to serve clients from anywhere in the United States and Canada via video conference.
Here are just some of the benefits of doing career coaching via video chat:
Time – clients save time by not having to travel to our offices for coaching sessions Comfort – clients are often more comfortable working from their own homes or offices Flexibility – clients experience fewer planning conflicts and more flexibility with scheduling Convenience – clients who travel for work are still able to attend their coaching appointments by using mobile devices from anywhere
Career coaching via video conference is easy and effective. For more information, please click here.
