Here is how I did it a million years ago when I got 3 raises in a year at Travelocity and doubled my income.
1. I came back from a military deployment and was reassigned from marketing to product development. My salary had fallen off the bottom side of the pay scale. My manager noticed this and gave me a big raise. Had I brought this to his attention earlier I would have gotten that raise earlier.
2. I applied to become the A/B test engineer for the company. That position came with a raise and a promotion. While in that position I pioneered new techniques that allowed faster test delivery at extreme durability (vanilla JS and old style DOM methods). I demonstrated high value and they couldn’t find anybody competent to replace me.
3. A little after really figuring how to write those A/B test experiments some other company tried to poach me at a higher rate. I brought their offer letter back to Travelocity who then gave me a raise exceeding the number on the offer letter.
