About Talent Shares
The company is building an iPhone app for talents to sell memberships and offer perks to fans. Each talent offers a fixed number of memberships, and each belongs to its buyer by name. Members receive seasonal perks, including early tickets and members-only shows. They may use, gift or sell a perk at a fixed price under rules set by the talent. Members can also transfer their memberships. Anyone 18 or older may buy a resold perk without becoming a member.
Talent Shares is based in Dover, Delaware. Customers pay on its website with a bank account, card or Apple Pay. Stripe processes payments and payouts, and Talent Shares does not store full card numbers. Emmanuel Tjeknavorian is chief executive officer and a director. Kiron Tellian is founder and stockholder.

Why Investors Backed Talent Shares
Talent Shares centers its business model on paid fan memberships. Optional subscriptions can add recurring income. Member perk sales also pay the talent.
What the product does
Founding Talents must join before the public launch and offer memberships within 90 days afterward. They receive 85% of new membership sales, 80% of optional subscriptions and 3% of perk sales. Talents joining later receive 75% of new membership sales. All payouts are net of payment fees and sales tax.
Progress so far
The iPhone app remains in testing, with a U.S. opening planned for December. An 80-second demonstration uses the real app with a demo account. The talents, members and prices shown there are fictional. Joining the Founding Talent list is free and carries no commitment. Fans can request access before the public opening.
