Why 93% of Startups Never Reach $1M—and How Faith Can Change That

Jul 22, 2025
 

Most founders start with big dreams.
But very few reach $1M in annual revenue.

The truth?
93% of startups never make it. 

Not because they’re lazy. Not because they don’t care.

But because they never build a clear, actionable path to get there.

 

They launch without GPS.
No roadmap. No numbers. No destination in sight.

 

If you’re serious about scaling, you need to ask:

  • How many transactions will it take to hit $1M?

  • What traffic and lead flow are required?

  • What conversion rate must I hit to win?

 

Revenue isn’t random.
It’s engineered.

The founders who break through don’t “try harder.”

They build smarter. They run the numbers.

They create a plan they can actually execute.

 

But that’s only part of the equation.

 

There’s something else that separates the builders who last:

Faith. 

 

We’ve all been given a measure of it.
But most founders don’t know how to use it.

They lean on grit, logic, and willpower.
But faith? That’s the multiplier.

Faith isn’t a feeling. It’s a force. 

It’s the decision to believe what God said—even when your current results don’t reflect it.

 

Romans 12:3 tells us clearly:

“God has dealt to each one a measure of faith.” 

 

That means you already have what you need.

But faith, like muscle, must be exercised.

It grows when you take action—especially when you take that action in alignment with God’s plan.

 

The real difference between dreamers and builders?

The builders put their faith to work.

They don’t just hope—they hear.

They don’t just grind—they align.

 

If you’ve been walking around with a God-given dream, but no strategy…

If your faith and business feel like two separate lives…

If you’re ready to stop wandering and start walking in purpose…

 

Then it’s time to build with both vision and precision.

 

Dreams require direction.

Faith requires action.

And your destiny requires both. 

 

Let’s build something eternal—starting with your first $1M in revenue.
