#### The best way to incentivize the investment of time is with an equal exchange of value --- To incentivize investment of time *(especially for someone also in business)* ranked from most to least attractive and incentivizing: - a share of profits, a cut, a % of income resulting from the work invested on an ongoing bases for all future income that is generated from the utilization of the material produced from the time invested - a one time payment for time spent or services rendered and no subsequent compensation or expectation of compensation - promotion of the other individual business in the aims to also driving traffic to that person and their ventures - exposure (often the least incentivizing especially with social audiences as they tend to be loyal to the people they chose to follow and watch not who those people point them at) Ultimately i like to ask the question mentally: > What is my time worth? Am i being compensated fairly? Am i just helping someone else make money with no equal exchange of value? Ultimately, because [[Money Is Concentrated Time and Energy]], to not be fairly compensated is to literally give away your time and energy. --- Tags: [[🌲️/Business]] - [[Incentive]] - [[Motivation]] - [[Investing]] - [[Collaboration]] - [[Work]] - [[Trade]] References: [Conversation](https://discordapp.com/channels/@me/747920457726165093/761681217992654928) Related: - [[@Nick Milo]]
