There are many benefits to becoming a Genshare business owner

  • Earn a competitive salary and earn dividends subject to business performance.

  • Receive an initial equity grant of up to 15%, and begin a pathway to majority ownership based on business performance. Read how operators are rewarded for the value they create.

  • No cash outlay on your part required. Initial equity grant is funded via a non-recourse loan from the company. Additional equity comes from share buybacks and dividend reinvestment.

  • Become a member of Genshare’s network of leaders and gain access to professional development, mentoring and support.

  • Be rewarded for your performance, time and effort.
