Statistics about Business Size from the Census Bureau

Number of small businesses with:

0 employees: 25,409,525

1-4 employees: 2,777,680 (average annual payroll of $59,728)

5-9 employees: 1,043,448 (average annual payroll of $187,378) <---my company is here

10-19 employees: 632,682 (average annual payroll of $407,476)

20-99 employees: 526,355 (average annual payroll of $1,273,700)

100-499 employees: 86,538 (average annual payroll of $6,790,961)


So even if we eliminate the small businesses with 0 employees and pretend they are not real businesses, then we are left with slightly more than 5 million small businesses, of which less than 25% have more than 10 employees. And according to these numbers, more than half of small businesses have an annual payroll of less than $100k.
