Whattup savages. I have a question that is a bit tailored for the sales leaders in the WR.
Long story short, I am trying to understand if I am justified in asking for a promotion/raise. I KNOW I KNOW it never hurts to ask, but I figured I’d throw out feelers beforehand. Ya know… gauge my level of disappointment.
For context, I am one of the longest tenured reps on our team and was promoted 8-9 months ago. My conundrum is that I did not hit quota last year, although not to say that I didn’t close a few strategic deals. My reasoning for asking for this is because I have done so many things far beyond a typical sales rep role (at least in my company) within the last 8-9 months. I have become one of the go-to trainers for new reps and SDRs, I’m currently working on the 2022 SDR strategy (no SDR mgr right now.. long story), and I am always the rep asked to review new sales/ops products and sit on demos. All of the things I’m doing ultimately benefit me in the end, but it’s definitely been a lot; sometimes feeling like I took on a second role.
SO with the information above, how justified should I feel by asking for a raise?
