Thank you all for your thoughts. I agree with most of what you have said. As it turns out, we have landed a large contract for next year (and potentially for an additional 3 years ) that will add approximately 30% to our revenues. I have explained to him that it is essential for this him to assume more duties if this added revenue is to translate into additional profit. He says that he is on board with this and willing to take on more. Given all of this, I have less of a problem with paying him more.
As far as supply and demand for supervisors go, the state employment commission and the U.S. Dept of Labor have him at about 82 percentile. I don't know what others are paying. I think that if I decide to keep this guy and pay him more that the ball is in my court to grow the company and set it up so that he is helping to produce more profit. Johnkeegan, you raised a good point when you stated that the real question may be am I getting paid enough. Thanks for all of your help. I will now start planning on how more aggressively grow my company.
