Your bench marks are low, very low. I did business with people doing far more than that. $10m a year was low end stuff in the days when porn had to be bought.
A business plan is just the beginning. After that it requires skill, talent, knowledge, money, connections, experience, etc to put it into action. You give yourself away when you say $5k a month producers only pay your lunch bill. 10 x $5k = $50k 50 x $5k = $250k a month.
So let's ask you some direct questions and cut out the spin. Which sites did you buy up to put into your marvellous CMS? How much content do you get shot each month for your sites? Where are the large producers proclaiming how marvellous your CMS is? All we see is two single models, one in a small niche.
If you can't produce your own sites you're left taking a cut from small producers, unless you can show otherwise.

i had to bullet point this. i have a busy day..
* maybe you knew some people doing a bit of business back in the day, but now your full-time job is gfy troll. you play with numbers trying to figure things out, but you are out of touch with the real business going on TODAY.
* i worked on massive stuff back in the day too. i built Ford's first dealer intranet. what i did 10 or 20 years ago, or even last year, means jack shit. today is all that matters.
* my biggest client today did revenue of $4.8 billion last year, obviously not from online porn. PornCMS is a nice platform that still makes people a lot of money every day, but i'm a developer. the cms takes about 3-5 hours a week of my time. the rest of my 60-80 hour week is billable.
* business plans go way beyond building and displaying a site. upsells, cross-sells, one-clicks, just to name a few. yes, plans can stay secret after a site is live lol
* why would i need to own sites to make a lot of money with my cms? and why would selling a cms relegate me to only working with small producers? there's no truth or logic behind either of those statements. i have big and small clients, nearly all of which make more than you TODAY.
that's my social time today. enjoy trolling!
