Negotiating a salary typically requires strategic thinking because you should not simply accept what the organization feels is appropriate. Sometimes, organizations may expect you to take on multiple roles without an increase in salary, selling it internally as a "growth opportunity."

Make sure you research what are the industry standards and bring that to the negotiating table.

Don't be discouraged by that first set-back. Ask your manager when you can come back to negotiate again. If you keep asking and of course, if you keep delivering optimal performance, eventually there will be a change. If not, perhaps it's also a sign to consider your future in the company, but at least you will have more clarity.
