Reward and Recognition
In Human Resources Management, the topic above is very familiar. We need to understand how we intend to reward and recognize our people. Different people are motivated by different things, hence people developing reward systems need to be aware of what people consider as rewarding.
In the theory of motivation, there is also what is called Herzberg’s hygiene factors – Some things might not be enough to make you leave a company, but they are enough to make you not think of leaving. What seems rather amazing however, is that the things that are hygiene factors are sometimes thought about by many as motivational factors. Herzberg was able to identify some of the elements classified as hygiene to include: company cars, salary, relationship with boss or subordinates, status and security. Does this shock you? He then identified the real motivators as achievement, recognition, work itself, personal growth, responsibility and advancement.
This month, also being the birthday of this site, I am in a great mood. Hence aside of the competition we currently have on, that will help people to win some fantastic prices, I am hereby announcing an experiment to reward and recognize the most courageous risk takers on this site. This experiment is open to only 10 participants and it’s on a first come first serve basis. You are about to be pleasantly surprised!
I am offering to give the first 10 people to indicate interest in this, an opportunity of sending in N50,000 each to me, and earning N220,000 in 90days. This offer is better than what any of the current investment scheme offers, and it is guaranteed. On the dot of 90days exactly you will get your N220,000. Don’t ask about if you don’t, that is why it is an experiment. I will make sure you get it, whatever happens. Deadline for payment is the 30th of March. You will be required to pay into a First Inland Bank account I will make available for you.
How do I qualify?
To qualify for this, you first need to be among the first 10 to indicate interest. Then you will perform a little task of mailing some of the articles on this site to as many of your friends as you can. You will use the email this post link on each of the articles. (In other words a little marketing of this site). If you mailed the highest number you will get recognized in addition to your N220,000. You are required to mail posts to about 100 people (like 3 per day). If not, you will still get your money, but will not be considered for the experiment again in the future.
Can one person buy the 10 slots?
No! The whole purpose of this exercise is to celebrate this site, and launch it forward into it’s next level. One person cannot get more than one slot. To be eligible you also need to have evidence that you are not a first timer on this site.
If I indicate interest and can’t pay before the deadline what happens?
The next person on the list replaces you, and then the next and next in the event of multiple defaulters.
Are you out of your mind?
LoL – Even I, feel like picking one of the slots for my mum (I might:)). Let’s say I’ve thought about this, and I know that experiments help us to get models perfected.
If your experiment fails what will happen?
I will ensure all the participants are paid their N220,000, I would also have learnt the lesson from the experiment while making my loyal friends, supporters and strangers happy. At the same time, people would have marketed this site and I would be helping more people.
How will we know what happened?
Exactly 90days after March 30, I will write a post referring to this post and sharing a detailed report on the success or otherwise of the experiment, prior to this I will also be giving heads up on progress. It’s an experiment, so I’m taking a number I can handle.
Shall I say, welcome to Nigeria’s first online reality show 
? Things are just beginning to become really interesting. Can you feel a rush of adrenalin? Let the party begin! Just briefly introduce how long you’ve been reading… and say you are interested!

These are 14 names already. Like I told you, this will be on a first come first serve basis, and on the basis of haven been regular on this site. The first 10 have the opportunity of paying before Wednesday the 28th of March. Any of them that defaults will create an opportunity for the remaining 4 in the order of their sequence.
I really wish I had more space to accommodate all of you, as I really appreciate all of you. What I can promise however is that we will have another experiment like this, and you’ll be first on the list. I could also give you an opportunity that will double the 50,000 for these 4 spill overs (I’ll still need to think about this)
Payments can be Made into my First Inland Bank Account
Acc Name: Adeolu Akinyemi
Acc No: 08037228919
Please don’t send money here except you are part of the first 10, except you want to give me money
All the best, and welcome on board.
have been reading your blog for about 3 months now. am interested if their is a spill over.
Imagine!
That is 400% in 12 wks.Sounds like Treasureline and Wealthsolutions?And imagine the number of people that are willing to experiment with 50k.
What about the people that that are saying bring as little as 3,900 and you ll get payoff guaranteed.
When i met with the Chairman of Wealthsolutions who i know to be so vast in MLM,this was the question he asked me,why do you think MLMs fail? 2 things he said.
1.people has to look for downliners that doesnt always work hence funds stop coming
2.the organisation’s continuous payment of residual income so that at some point they wont be able to meet up.
He said these are the 2 problems they are solving with wealth solutions.
They get the funds,spread on a 2*4 forced matrix and the funds keep coming.
And i must tell you Deolu businness ve been really good for them.
And for the investors,for now they re smiling to the bank.A guy around here just bought a brnd new car this week after collecting a pay off of 4m.Investors should only pray that Clubfreedom and CDT dont suddenly close down their portals.
so this is it.if we re trying our hands on this fine,just dont forget me when u get to your kingdom o.at least fro this classified info.
and if any of the 14 cant meet up am in and available.
About a year ago we first met whill you were in Virgin, I had signified intrest in IT for developement and you suggested I correspond with ur friend,gbenga sesan.Sadly I never got any response from him but thanks for the offer to network and also lend a hand to spring this blog to the next level.I’m really open to all your ideas,being around here for sometime although I’ve never being able to get you on ur phone; moreover about three months ago I requested via this comment tab to have an interview with you .I’ve read your book too!I’ll continue to ensure all my colleagues keep getting ur articles fwded by moi.
congrats and keep up the progress
I would really want to be among the 10 people, but got to read this today (24/03/07) I am seek a special request from Deolu to extend it to new commers like me into his vast wealth of wisdom site. A friend of mine gave me the site address. I look forward to hearing from Deolu
Pastor….
I am a silent reader of this site and i must say..you are doing a great job. I was opportune to watch your interview with Ireti on Funmi Iyanda..the clip on the net..I must say that you look “interesting”. I just read this post today and i am wondering..for those of us outside..how do we get to be a part of this experiment?
Keep up the good work and remain blessed.
Regards
Chairman,
count me in.really interested in this online reality show!
hope i’m not first from back row!
Kunle Ogunbayo
LOL Adeolu, what issssssss lol N50,000 and N200,000 sorry from the USA lol i have no idea what this is in USA terms… but what the heck ..good luck to those chosen.. and great way to advertise Adeolu..
@ All,
I’ll first want to thank you all for your interest in this offer. Like I mentioned, it is an experiment and I can only take care of the number I’m sure I can personally pay if it doesn’t work out as speculated. When this experiment works, I’m sure there’ll be more. Freelance, Ayodeji, Jumoke, Albert, Kehinde, Tolu, Lolo, Makinde, Abiola, Michael, Toyin, Dare, Kunle, Debra, thank you all.
I’m also touched by the number of people who have been reading from here regularly. I really can’t reward you all. Thank you. I’ll appreciate all your efforts in getting the information in this site on to others. The more the merrier.
Debra, N50,000 is $380 in American currency and N220,000 is about $1720. Yeah, I believe in win-win.
Please note that as soon as payments are made, I will go on working on your money, while you ensure 100 people receive posts from this site every month. I work on your money, you work on the site… Thanks.
Hmmm. sounds like there’s no reward for faithfuls in diaspora. We will however remain loyal!
@ Deolu
Guess i was a bit late. Incase there is an extra space for just one more person, then i would be very much interested in that slot but really hope you could accommodate more people at least. Thanks
Hi Deolu…i’m no 10 on the list yippee!!!!, but the left hand side of this post has been cut off, so we cant read it properly.Please could you send your account no again? i cant see it at all. Thanks…
Do we get to fill any forms??? and where will our returns be paid?
@ Fola… no now…. it’s not like that oh… there is a reward for faithfuls in Diaspora… I have you in mind, and will develop something specially for you.
@ Kite… I really need to find a solutions to this thing… you will be paid in the account number you will make available as soon as payment is to be made… the account number is my phone number…and nice talking to you.
@ Freelance… don’t worry, there will be other times, and you’ll be considered before new entrants.
Deolu, it appears i miss the opportunity. Well, consider me in anytime offer like this is coming up even if the principal is higher than 50k.
Hmmmmm, never knew Deolu is everything, from Pastor to Chairman, from Oga to my lord, from kabiesi to ogbeni etc etc. When it comes to money, no going back.
Deolu, even if you decide to increase it to 1,000,000 people, you will have them in a day. And we will still continue to indicate interest.
May be this is the birth of a new product for GFS
Best wishes ! ! !
@ Ed
lol. No way, GFS will not do this oh… GFS will do only what it can guarantee it’s sustainability longterm.
Deolu,
i have been reading this bolg since after 360 degrees and have found tremendous information here. its so painfull that i was not able to post my linterest before you got all ur candidates, i actually tried severally when it was just five people that replied to your post, but the page was just timing out. i will be the happiest person on earth if my name could just be squeezed in.
You are really a great inspiration to this generation.
Bros, i’m very much interested in this. Thanks
Hi Deolu,
I’ve been with you since September last year. I will like be considered for such in the future.
Our generation is indeed blessed to have you! Thanks and well done.
People sure like to be rewarded. No wonder this post has generated so much comment. I will create a reward system to compensate my own friends too. At least am sure i will get comments. Chairman thanks for passing this message across
Hi Deolu,
I have officially commited myself to this experiment(have paid into ur account).I am really excited about this though the risk on my part is not to high considering the fact that you are bearing majority of the risk.
I cant wait for 90 days so that i read your post on how you performed the magic.
I wish you luck(I need it).
Dear Deolu,
This is a great initiative, keep it up!
@ All,
As at now, 9pm on the night of the 28th of March, only 8 people have paid into the account. This opens it up to the next two people. I will announce when that has been done, so check here before you go make your payments.
These are the 8 I am sure have paid in the order of payment
Akinropo
Bello Ariyo (Confirmed to be Tolu)
Kite
Tunne
Yomi
Stephen
Henry
Biodun
(I’m missing rowland and kamal)
Well done to those who have paid, this is an experiment we will all enjoy. I’ll be giving further details soon.
Hello
My full names are Bello Ariyo Tolulope
i paid in with the the above full name,
Therefore
Bello Ariyo=Tolulope
Thanks
Incase there is still an extra slot. Then hope i would be considered. I have confidence in Deolu.
Keep up the good work.
I am very interested in the reward thingi, the time is 15:18 29-03/07. I have a flashme account and could easily flash the dough. Give me a feedback. I AM VERY MUCH INTERESTED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks for your courage and belief.

Adeolu
[...] The reward and recognition challenge kicked off March 29th, 2007. We had many people that showed interest, and 9 that were finally selected to participate.
