Perhaps one strategy would be to give them a baseline salary (higher than your current salary, of course). You could tell them that in general based on the kind of work you are doing, responsibilities, etc. you would expect more, but under no circumstances would you consider any offer less than that.


Whatever you do, do not say a low number expecting to increase it later.

If you want to give a number, give a high one that you are ok with the company negotiating down, because that is what will happen.
