Did you know that 96% of businesses fail within 10 years? In the photography world only 40% of businesses survive the first year, only 25% make it through the second year, and only 15% make it to their third year. Only 4% of those businesses will make it to the 10-year mark. Sadly, the overwhelming majority will fail.
