Before you ask for a raise, build the case for one.
Real progress rarely happens alone. When women have the right support and the right strategy in their corner, hard conversations start feeling a lot less hard. If you have been underpaid relative to your impact for a while, the issue usually isn't your performance. It's that the case for your raise hasn't been built in a way leadership can say yes to.
As a salary negotiation coach, Shannon Fox teaches women that how to ask for a raise starts weeks before the conversation itself. You define the number, document your measurable impact, and walk in with a plan tied to what your company actually cares about right now. Confidence follows preparation, not the other way around.
✔ Set a clear, specific raise goal
✔ Document the results you are already delivering
✔ Map a 90-day plan that matches company priorities
Whether you are negotiating in Los Angeles, Miami, or anywhere across North America, fall is when many companies shape next year's budgets. The women who prepare now are the ones who get heard then.
