I would agree with NicoJuicy, but in the absence of detailed information it is fair to say that the expectation when starting out is even with repeat entrepreneurs almost always too optimistic. Reality kicks in and costs suddenly are higher, payments further delayed, prices set not right, etc, etc. Startup nation has a great article to avoid some of the pitfalls of not thinking about consistent profitability correctly http://www.startupnation.com/business-articles/1262/1/profit... Good luck!
