Asking for a raise

What do?
Currently the director of cultivation (back in Tucson, no longer in Oregon). I have been with the company since June'17, took a 3 month stint to Oregon, then came back to Tucson because this grow was falling fast.
My question is this, is it better to ask for raises shortly after the new year? Or just wait until I hit a certain "time with the company" mark?
It could possibly put me at 6 figures.. so I want to do this correctly.
Thanks all you peen dongs <3

It depends on who you have to ask. A personnel director, or someone with actual roots in the organization ?
Think out the appropriate approach, passive or aggressive.
Will you be going all-in raise or else ?
Do you have a back-up plan in case your request is denied ?
Sometimes the best approach is to request a meeting ( in a week or so) to discuss your future with the company. Trust me , they'll know what's up and have a while to plan.
Good luck :)

I report directly to the owner of the company. We have a close relationship. That's why it's a little different than your typical raise situation.
Sorry for not clarifying that in the OP.
Considering my workforce is 45 employees and I'm responsible for millions of dollars worth of product, a raise shouldn't be too hard to budge.
I'm more curious about if there is a best time of year to ask for a raise.

All depends on the company I would imagine.
I think calling for a meeting a week out is good advice.
ETA: or just wait until your next review.

Sounds like you're doing solid work, so I go for it right after the AGM .

Bring chapstick and kiss butt. I always bring up what makes me valuable and tell them I'm an investment and not a liability.
Examples
-I haven't missed a day in 2 years
-I haven't been late in 2 years
-My production is 2nd to none
-Im an investment to this company
-ect..ect....
