Welcome to Day 10 of the Double Your Profit Series — the go-to profit series for contractors, home service owners, and small business entrepreneurs. Today, we’re tackling something that’s as obvious as it is underused: Tying Compensation to What Actually Matters.

🧠 If you’ve ever said “I wish we had more sales” — but your sales team is on base salary with no commission — this one’s for you. No incentives? No results. It’s that simple.

💡 What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

Why lack of commissions kills sales motivation
How to instantly align incentives with business outcomes
What Charlie Munger meant by “Show me the incentive, and I’ll show you the result”
How to build a comp plan that actually drives performance
Why the culture you’re building is shaped by what you reward
The cascading effect of bad (or nonexistent) compensation design
Real-world example: how a friend’s lack of incentive tanked her motivation—on a Monday bike ride
