Sample Email Template for Requesting a Sign-on Bonus Hello {Recipient's Name}, Hope you are doing well.

How to negotiate a signing bonus Step 1: Wait for your official offer. Step 2: Research salary and bonus opportunities. Step 3: Have a set amount and reasons why. Step 4: Be open to negotiations. Step 5: Have it in writing.
Be straightforward, be sincere and don't be afraid to ``toot your own horn''. Be respectful and let them know how much you love your job and what you do. Then, simply ask for your bonus (or raise). You can either leave out the amount, or if you do state an amount, be ready to negotiate.
It's perfectly okay to ask for a sign on bonus, but the time to do this is during the offer process when you are negotiating salary, benefits, relo, and any other conditions of employment. Once you accepted the offer, it's pretty much over. It's a contract that both parties have agreed to.
Use positive language to express the company's values, such as ““We wish to reward you for your excellent customer service,”” or ““We appreciate your innovative ideas and want to reward your hard work.”” Explain how the bonus is an affirmation of the company's values and how it will help employees continue to thrive.
If you're asking for a bonus for a specific project, provide facts and figures about the outcome of the project and how it exceeded the stakeholders' requirements. If you're asking for a bonus for more general reasons, offer details about why you deserve it.
In your letter, include the ways your current position makes you well-suited to the new job. Offer specific ways you've made an impact and why you're uniquely qualified to take on the responsibilities required. Find a trusted referral from within the organization to endorse you for the role or promotion.
