- Step 3: Identify factors that put me at the higher vs. lower end (experience, specialism, company size).
- Step 4: Prepare a data-backed salary conversation opener.

# Constraints
- Use the user's variables exactly where relevant.
- Avoid generic filler and vague advice.

  3. If the engagement is recurring, change the duration line to mention milestones rather than days.
  4. Run it in your tool of choice. The output should be ready to paste with at most one small edit.
