Brandon was great to work with. He was able to provide me with a comprehensive market analysis, which helped me know where my offer stood with respect to the overall market.
He was quick to respond to all my emails, and we spent ample time discussing negotiation strategy over the phone.

Substantial increase (+21.1%, +$50,000) in the first year)
I had the pleasure of working with Brandon, the Salary Negotiator, during my recent job offer negotiation for a Senior Director level role, and I couldn't be more satisfied with the results. Brandon's expertise and approach were exceptional, resulting in some impressive gains for me. We achieved a substantial increase (+21.1%, +$50,000) in the first year and a remarkable increase (+15.1%, +$122,500) over the three-year FTE package.
Brandon truly shone in the RSUs category, and his open-ended negotiation strategy, as opposed to my initial RSU fixed target (that I was thinking to counter), proved to be a brilliant move.
Despite my 15 years of past negotiation experience in various companies, I was initially skeptical about the value Brandon could bring, but I am so glad I hired him. He far exceeded my expectations at every level.
Throughout the negotiation process, Brandon's well-researched insights, strategic guidance, and the numerous phone calls and emails demonstrated his dedication to achieving fantastic results. I only wish I had known about him and hired him for my previous job offers. Brandon is undoubtedly a game-changer when it comes to salary negotiation, and I wholeheartedly recommend his services to anyone looking to secure the best possible deal. Thank you, Brandon, for your outstanding work! 😊

Highly recommended
Brandon and team came recommended to me by a former colleague in software who got a successful bump in comp. Brandon walked me through the process at every step and helped prep for negotiating. Although my case didn't turn out in an increase (company was unwilling/unable to budge), it was still worthwhile to have peace of mind in getting the best out of my offer and feeling satisfied that I'd at least tried to push the needle.

It was a pleasure to work with you on this salary negotiation. Smaller companies can be tough to negotiate with and you had a very competitive initial offer but I'm still glad we tried several strategies to ensure you were at the top end of their pay band. Enjoy the new role!

Excellent support and worth your money and time!
It is definitely worth your money and time!
I worked with Brandon to negotiate my first job offer. A little background about myself: I hold a Ph.D. in biomedical engineering and have 3 years of postdoc experience. However, the initial base salary offered was below my expectations and, as I was certain, also lower than the market rate. Recognizing the need to increase my salary, I faced the daunting task of approaching the company about this matter. This is when I decided to seek assistance from The Salary Negotiator.
Brandon guided me through effective tactics and psychological strategies to approach the company confidently. He demonstrated kindness, thoroughness, and expertise throughout the process. I wholeheartedly recommend him to my friends.

Expect to Get Results
I worked with Brandon on my new job offer and he delivered results! He has an incredible breadth of knowledge with regards to job offer negotiations and has a contingency plans for every possible situation you may encounter from the recruiter / HR. More importantly, he guides you though the whole process and checks in with you at each step of the negotiation so you feel confident while discussing compensation with your future / current employer. I highly recommend reaching out to him or checking out his course.

Top-Notch Salary Negotiation Services and Course
My experience using The Salary Negotiator's services has been nothing short of extraordinary. The salary negotiation process can be a bit daunting and overwhelming, but the easy step-by step tools and instructions provided allowed me to confidently navigate the process, knowing I had an expert on my side. Brandon, the founder of The Salary Negotiator, is super easy to work with and he and his team were there to help me throughout the entire salary negotiation process. The negotiation service, coupled with the top-notch courses offered, has not only helped guide me through the process, but has also equipped me with the tools and knowledge to properly negotiate my salary in the future.
The online course provided by The Salary Negotiator was an absolute game-changer and I would recommend it to anyone, whether a seasoned professional or starting off in your career, as the advice is universally applicable. The course itself covers a wide array of essential negotiation techniques, and it equipped me with the necessary tools to negotiate effectively and assertively. The course was well-structured with each lesson accompanied by real-life scenarios, making it easy to apply the knowledge directly to my own negotiation. My favorite take-away was the salary negotiation myths that he dispelled, though the entire course was informative.
Thanks to The Salary Negotiator, I not only secured a salary bump, but additional equity, for a total compensation increase of 15%.
The results are pretty impressive! If you’re thinking of signing up for the negotiation services, course, or both - you won’t regret it!

The Salary Negotiator was extremely… knowledgeable, attentive, and successful
The Salary Negotiator was extremely helpful--readily available when I had questions, patient when I was unsure, and clear in his explanations. One thing I really appreciated was turning the research on the correct salary range over to him, which allowed me to bask in the offer while feeling assured that I would be able to ask for and get to the right salary. We achieved a small increase, which was nice, as was the assurance that my salary is both competitive and equitable. The fee is also very reasonable in and of itself, but especially when you consider the way the increase we negotiated will accumulate over time. I recommend The Salary Negotiator!
