DESCRIPTION: EcoVG Mental Health Monday: The Accidental Bait and Switch - 
 The Real ROI of Sweat Equity Nobody sets out to screw over their 
 cofounder. Or their brother-in-law. Or the best friend who "helped out" 
 for two years while the business got off the ground. And yet &mdash\; 
 that's exactly how it lands when the payout finally comes due and everyone
  discovers they were never playing the same game.Sweat equity is one of 
 the most common deals in business\, and one of the most dangerous &mdash\;
  because most of the time\, the deal is never actually made. It's assumed.
  One person thinks they're investing in future ownership. The other thinks
  they're receiving loyalty\, generosity\, or friendship. Nobody 
 articulates the expectation and both assume you're on the same page -- but
  unwittingly\, you're not\, and by the time the business is worth arguing 
 over\, you're not negotiating a contract anymore &mdash\; you're triaging 
 a relationship. In this live\,1-hour class\, therapist-turned-family-
 enterprise-consultant Savannah Berry Suttle breaks down the three systems 
 of compensation that run underneath every "we're building this together" 
 arrangement &mdash\; Sweat Equity\, Relationship Capital\, and Financial 
 Capital &mdash\; and shows you how misaligned expectations between them 
 quietly plant relational landmines in your own path. You'll learn: Why 
 sweat equity gets conflated with loyalty\, generosity\, and friendship 
 &mdash\; and how that conflation becomes an accidental bait and switch The
  economics of trust: how to identify which currency each party actually 
 expects to be paid in (money\, equity\, ownership percentage\, authority\,
  security\, reciprocity\, goodwill\, gratitude &mdash\; they are not 
 interchangeable The tell-tale signs that two parties are operating from 
 different compensation systems ("Is this a labor of love\, or just 
 labor?") How to have the awkward\, deal-clarifying conversation before the
  work starts &mdash\; and how to repair when it's already gone sideways. 
 How to structure sweat equity so it protects your investment of time\, 
 energy\, relationships\, network\, and sanity Who this is for: Founders 
 and cofounders. Startup contributors working for "future upside." Family 
 business members and family office principals. Rising gen who've been 
 "helping out" for years. Friends going into business together. Anyone 
 who's ever traded free labor for a promise &mdash\; or accepted free labor
  and made one. Sweat equity can be awesome &mdash\; if you do it right.
