Support and motivation depends more on satisfying their needs than it does on the outcomes themselves. Good incentives, whether in the form of T-Credits, PSAs, or shares of a cooperative can make a bigger difference than actually demanding anything... but you have to know your team members well first.
Elicit responses from them, know what interests them most, whether through SFI/TripleClicks or through outside hobbies. When someone understands that you're on his or her side, you can develop a good working relationship.
Elicit information on their needs, as well. This does not mean paying for everything for them, but rather their informational needs. Help them find ways to get what they need. That will enable them to follow your lead that much better.
Now, if you can't elicit a response, well, there's not too much you can do about that because that means they've effectively tuned you out. At that point, you just need to move on.
