I always feel the way to get  more money is to get creative and CONSISTENTLY bring new ideas to the table.  Especially ones that help bring in more revenue, and they don’t have to be directly related to your own position.  Like the sign in the subway says “see something, say something”.  You read an article about something that can help the business, talk about it.  Some company executives have been working in the same position for so long they suffer from stale thinking.  I experience that all the time. My ideas got me an additional 25K plus 6K performance bonus worked into my contract for 2013, and my company laid off 4K in January. Get after it!
