I've just read that most small businesses start with just $5,000 or less and that 34% make it through to 10 years. The common wisdom that 50% fail within the first 5 years is apparently not quite right because entrepreneurs often change business or just get out, without failing.
Anecdotally, I've heard that only 5% of surviving businesses have revenues of $1 million or more by 10 years. That's revenues, not profits. In my own experience (in a service business, with partners) it an cost almost that much in salaries and other expenses, too.

Annual turnover is annual sales revenue. The money which is generated from selling a product or service. This must not be confused with annual income because income is associated with profits and with income tax while turnover is not! Turnover is the language used by businessmen when asked what their sales figures are for the month or year. It is also used as a management tool to manage and compare the performance of a business with previous years and also with market competitors. If the turnover is high, it does not mean the income is high, because turnover is simply the starting point before profits are calculated and before gross and net income can be ascertained.
