Things we think are important, cool, or otherwise deserving of attention.
Imagine this: a person rides their bicycle across the country, picking up trash along the roadside and blogging their experience. They’re seeing the world and making it a better place. It sounds cool, but how can they afford to do it?
Now they add a Propits button to their blog. Their friends and family, reading the story of their adventures, get a chuckle out of it. Each person Gives Props, and each Prop represents a slice of the money that person gives to the Propits community. If the story is a good story, word spreads. More people read the blog, more people Give Props.
Now the bicyclist-adventurer-trash-picker gets money from those Props. It might only be a dollar from each reader, or even less, but it doesn’t take many readers before they have enough to fund their modest expenses. The world supports their helpful and entertaining contribution.
Imagine all the people who could generate an income just by making the world a better place. They could help those in need, create cool art, educate with instructional videos or websites, amuse with humorous contributions, or amaze and inspire others with their feats. They tell the story through blogs or videos online, and they could earn income on it without having to be bought, sold, and repackaged by a major media company.
All they need is you, giving what you can afford and Giving Props to what is worthy!
