Tangible businesses, real returns
Rather than employing a traditional interest rate, Revenue Sharing Notes on Mainvest utilize an investment multiple, which is a predetermined amount to be returned to investors by a set maturity date. The key element that differentiates this model is that the return rate correlates directly with the business's gross revenue. This means that returns are tied directly to the performance of the business, creating a system where the investors and the business are working towards mutual success. Through Mainvest, you're not just an investor but a part of the business's journey.
