I want to: negotiate my salary script.
Current salary: [£AMOUNT]
What I want: [£AMOUNT or % increase]
Market rate for my role: [£AMOUNT or 'UNSURE']
My leverage: [competing offer / exceeded targets / taken on more / rare skills]
When the conversation is: [DATE or 'I need to initiate it']
Give me the negotiation strategy:
1. **How to open the conversation** — exact first sentence for my situation
2. **What to ask for and how to justify it** — the strongest 3 arguments
3. **Scripts for pushback** — 'budget is frozen' / 'not possible right now' / silence
4. **Non-salary things to ask for** if the number truly can't move
5. **What NOT to say** — mistakes that kill negotiations
6. **How to close** — whatever the outcome, leave the conversation strong
