Who is the Negotiating Pay poster for?

Negotiating Pay belongs to the Money section rather than to a school year, because money is not something one grade owns. Anyone learning basics can pin it up — a beginner, a student mid-course, or someone revising years later.

When should you use the Negotiating Pay poster?

The largest single increase most people ever get is at the point of accepting a job. A wall chart earns its place by being glanceable from where the work is happening, so Negotiating Pay belongs on the wall where that money work actually happens, within glancing distance, rather than filed away.

What other posters go with Negotiating Pay?

Structuring Accounts, The 50/30/20 Budget and How You Pay Changes What You Spend sit alongside Negotiating Pay in the Money section. Printed together they make a wall rather than a single sheet, which is how a reference set actually gets used.

Is the Negotiating Pay poster free to download and print?

Yes. Negotiating Pay downloads as a free PDF with no account, no email and no watermark, like everything else in the Money section. Print as many copies as you like for a home, a classroom, a library or a tutoring group; reselling the file is the only thing the licence rules out.

What size does the Negotiating Pay poster print at?

Negotiating Pay is a vector PDF laid out for US Letter, and prints on A4 with Fit to page — the same file, no separate download. Because every mark on it is drawn rather than photographed, it stays sharp enlarged to A3, A2 or A1 at a copy shop. Colour carries emphasis only, so a greyscale print of Negotiating Pay loses nothing.
