Persuade your employer that you deserve a raise

Running head: PERSUADING AN EMPLOYER FOR A PAY RAISE Persuading an Employer for a Pay Raise Name: University: Course: Tutor: Date: Persuading an Employer for a Pay Raise After working for this doctors office for a period of one year I am convinced I deserve a pay raise. I was promised to get a pay raise when joining this medical office after a period of five months after my confirmation. This has not been done and I am just wondering what might have happened despite the fact that I have displayed exemplary performances for the last one year. My file can actually speak for itself as all I have done over this period is add value to the office. I believe pay raise is based on merit and hence I humbly present myself as a candidate for the same. Correct me if I am wrong but I believe I have brought in new medical clients more than any other medical officer has done. In fact, only a few have been able to bring one or two clients for this period. This implies that I have enabled the office to make more profits than it was doing while I joined it. I have been crowned the officer of the month for the last four months. This has been the case as I have been able to outperform the other medical officers. I understand for a fact that some of them have been working for this office for a longer period of time yet they still fail to leave to my standards. I am not saying they are not equally important as the office cannot function without them. All I am saying is that I deliver more than most of them. There are many incidences where I have taken a leadership position to enable the office pull through a crisis. For example, there was a time when a medical client was threatening to leave the office even before he was attended to. This cam at a time when you were not in the office hence I had to deal with the same alone. I was able to apply my skills and as I am drafting this letter the client is still receives medical care from this office. He actually prefers my services whenever the services of this office are needed. This is a clear indication that my skills and tactics have been of great benefit to the office considering the fact that there are other incidences where I saved the day that are also on file for reference purposes. I have upheld the integrity of this office by being a great ambassador in the outside world. My ability to convince more and more clients to tyry our medical services as they are the best can prove this. Just two days ago I was able to convince a new customer to try our medical services. This is an individual who owns a multi-billionaire medical office hence will bring more profits to our office considering the fact such individuals are ever willing to pay any price for their health. I am able to convince a medical patient client to see the good in us and how best we can deal with his or her issue. I can be able to count the days I have failed to report to work due to one or two reasons. To be more precise, I have only been absent for nine days for the one year period I have been with the office. I had concrete and unavoidable reasons that led to me failing to report to work. This can also be confirmed in my file. I am always willing to work overtime despite the fact that the office does not offer overtime bonuses. I have done all this to ensure the doctor’s office is able to deliver timely services that will lead to high levels of customer satisfaction. Essentially, I have been able to deal with my roles and duties within the stipulated time with or without the aid of my colleagues. There are many times when I come to job even on weekends just to ensure a customer is served in the right way. One day I was chatting with one of the clients I was able to bring to the our office and he told me that the previous office he was getting the same services did not deliver and that is why he decided to move and work with the best. I have taken this to be my motivating factor. I never want to let any of our medical customers down. I understand for a fact that most medical officers in this office face the issue of delays even those who...
