It is always the aim of any career person to get increased salaries and bonuses even if they come with more responsibilities. Here’s a little useful advice on how to position yourself to earn more and increase your worth in your organization

- Create the Image You Want: Everything in business and career is about perception. The musician that gets paid the highest fee may not actually have the best songs but has created an image that attracts crowds and increases his payday. Example Dbanj (just our opinion though). So you need to create an image of the most useful and most effective professional in your field, nurture and build that image. Your pocket will surely begin to grow with that image. If you have a larger than life image you most probably will earn larger than life wages.

- SWOT Analysis: Analyse your Strengths and Weaknesses. Improve on your strengths and work to eliminate your weaknesses. It is as simple as that. You will not grow bigger if you don’t do that. This is one of the main reasons most people remain rooted to a spot in their career.

- Know a Bit of All Things but Strive to be the Best in Your Area: In our modern world you just have to know a bit about many things but it is very important that you create a reputation as one of the very best in your field. This will help you command more value.

- Move with the Movers: This is another phrase for networking. If you learn everything you need to learn but you really do not cultivate necessary contacts your success may be slow in coming or might not even come at all. In today’s world your network is your net worth. If you don’t know anybody and nobody knows you and can vouch for how good you are you remain at the bottom of the ladder. That is the reality folks.

- Dress The Part, Act the Part: Your appearance matters. Strangers attach value to you based on your looks before ever they even hear you talk

- Finally when you are becoming very good write a book in your field. Writing a book does two things for you: It increase your income if you have a good strategy to sell it but more importantly it enhances your reputation and builds your value even more especially if your book has excellent content and packaging.
