Seth Carlson
Head Consultant
Negotiating salary was something that came natural to me. It started with negotiating my own personal salary. From there co-workers asked how I was able to get an increase in my pay and so I decided to help them as well. As the success stories continued to happen I quickly realized the passion I had for not only negotiating, but also helping others get what they are worth.
The negotiation experience allowed me to develop a deep understanding of business fundamentals. This is key as we approach business consulting and executive coaching at Acquired Salary through fundamental first problem solving. It all sounds simple in theory, but the nuance comes in the execution. Through these techniques we have helped fortune 500 companies save over 17 million dollars as well as developed comprehensive plans for the future directions and investments.
