Send out a few resume's and list your boss as a reference. Then when review time comes around, he's already had some calls about you and you can tell him someone has offered u more money. SIMPLE.

Why wait for your annual review to aks how you can perform better. Ask your boss TOMORROW how you can better serve the company and make it worth paying you more. Is it training? Is it longer hours? Tell them that you would like to contribute more and be rewarded better. Set down goals and keep them.
NOW, are you willing to meet the company's needs to improve yourself or your performance? Have you topped out at your level? Is it time to move on? Can you make more elsewhere? Why are you staing where you are? Does the company need you more than you need them? Do you need them more than they need you?
Look at your job from your boss' point of view. If you were paying yourself to do your job, are you getting your money's worth, or are you overpaying yourself? It costs about 2x to keep an employee on the payroll than what your pay stub says you earn. The employer must pay taxes, insurance and other compensation that you will never even take advantage of, and if you get a raise, these costs also go up.

when you go in for your review.. Ask your boss how many days you have called in sick or have taken off..
That is ask that only if you haven't taken any sick days or personal days.. By asking him that question and making him notice you have been there every day you will be showing him your loyalty and value to the company.. If he doesn't give you a better then average raise then I would ask him what he would like to see of you, how could you improve your performance and become more valuable to him and the company..

Tell him you need more money and ask him what would be required from you to make more money at this company.
