Entrepreneurs struggle with their ROI on businesses. Starting a business is not a difficult task but sustaining it becomes challenging. I've seen a numerous companies go bankrupt after good years of sales. Knowing the reason behind is lack of future projections.

According to you, what should be the ROI for newly launched startups?

My views are around 15% per annum but it would take around 6.6 years to earn the initial amount back. Would it be a bad decision?

If you were a student of business studies, you wouldn't have asked this question. You should know that there is no fixed ROI for sustainability of a business. Sustainability of a business depends on numerous factors and future projection is just one of those factors.

Do a market research on your competitors. Use websites like Statista to gain insights. See what is the average ROI in your field of business and now see prepare a business forecast to see if you beat the average ROI.

Precisely. You can't expect a fixed ROI because the market situation too may differ in some ways. But as long as you hit the average ROI for a certain business, i guess you will see consistency in making profits. Same as you can't guarantee as to how long your business will stay competitive in the market.

and just to give example why we can't determine a fixed ROI, during this pandemic period, you can't get your target roi because of so many restrictions and uncontrolled situations. you can have your estimates but not fixed ROIs. also, it depends on the demand of your services or products. better if it is used massively by regular people but if you only have special niche to tap, that would be hard. also, you need to innovate as your competitors may be upgrading and you need to get ahead of the game as well.
