Most business owners will be unlikely to honestly answer that question. Just as most people will not tell you how much money they make a year. They would consider it to be none of your business.

You can go online and see what most locksmith businesses make per year. It will vary wildly though, some single man operations will gross 100k or less a year, companies with several employees can be turning over a few million a year. Depends on location and ambition.
