Survival Rate for Business Startups with Employees

Source: SBA, “Small Business by the Numbers” 2002

Statistics show that 50% of small businesses fail within two years and as high as 80% fail within 6 years. What’s interesting is this is also the one of the fastest growing sectors- small business start ups. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, 2,356 Americans decide to go into business for themselves everyday. Here’s from a 2007 article in Fortune Small Business:

“We are in the midst of the largest entrepreneurial surge this country has ever seen. According to Small Business Administration projections, nearly 672,000 new companies with employees were created in 2005. That is the biggest business birthrate in U.S. history: 30,000 more startups than in 2004, and 12% more than at the height of dot-com hysteria in 1996.”

What does that mean to you? It means that not only is the probability of your business failing high, but you are now getting MORE COMPETITION than ever!!
