Businesses that use money as a motivator

Why do businesses use money as a motivation?

In my opinion I agree with  businesses that use money as a motivator because money can help their employee work harder because it gives their employees an opportunity to earn more at work

For example, companies offers a Commission based pay or base + commission type of pay

These type of pay are very strategic to a company because it will enhance customer service to their company, increase sales and help advertise their company

I work on commission and I think it is fantastic! I love that the company I work for gives me an opportunity to earn more money when I'm at work which means I have to work harder to sell their products and provide a better service. This commission pay has kept me around their company for about 3 years already and has pushed me to sell more for their company.

Without commission I would feel not motivated to sell and just go to work to make up my hours and thats it because there are no goals to look forward to

But if a company chooses not to use money as a motivator they can recognizing their employees by offering "employee of the month" awards or even praising them for all the hard work. This way they can still motivate their employees by giving them recognition.
