Money isn't everything, but let's start there. Most small and medium-sized businesses don't offer enough incentives to their employees, and even big companies with deeper pockets have limitations where they can't provide the same upside. If you think you can't afford it, then step back and ask yourself: Do I have a hiring problem...or a budgeting problem?
