Profit Margin in Video Production? Can't Post

I am looking into starting a video production business, and plan to go after industrial video as well as marketing/television commercials. I am putting together a business plan, and am having a hard time with projections on net revenue.
I was wondering if any of you could share your experience with me and let me know what sort of profit margin your own business's have. What sort of profit margin did you have your first year, and what do you have now?
I know this may be a sensetive subject with some people...but i would really just like to hear percentages. You don't have to tell me how much money you made, just the percentage of your gross income (profit margin).
I would greatly appreciate it.
Thanks in advance for your help,
sincerely,
-Robert Delaney

Hi,
Can you tell me what your experiences has been to date ?
I know a person that is starting his own own video business & I want to propose to him to partner with me !!
My reason is that I'm struggling (financially) to start a a local TV show, a 30-min paid programming and my biggest financial problem has to do with the show production ! Can anyone give me some solid inputs that would help me present my case for him to partner that is mutually beneficial !
thanks,
J.L.
