    Well, I recommend to make a research first. Use the tools in Google AdWords to get some ideas how much traffic you can expect from particular keywords. If you know that your current traffic is e. g. 2,000 visitors a month a this traffic generates $2,000 for you, it means every visitor earns your $1.

    After the research check out how the keywords are competitive. Try to estimate the cost of SEO, keep in mind, that every visitor = $1 and you will see if it is profitable for you.

    SEO is an investment for your business. What you do today, you'll reap the benefits of it in the future. Measuring ROI for SEO is one of the hardest things to do because there are so many factors/variables involved. It's not like PPC where you know exactly how much you spend and how many conversions you're getting from it.

    Your spot on as SEO as a investment for the business. People who dont value SEO, will either have to pay in other forms of marketing, and that can be very costly.

    You don't have to be paying for any SEO, and employing it has become trickier since Google has made it plain with the recent algo changes that it considers artificially ranking a site (including onpage optimization and offpage backlinking) to be "web spam," and will increasingly penalize it. Use a variety of no-cost means of generating traffic, SEO and non SEO, and make sure your site's appearance and growth looks natural to Google, and the ROI should increase correspondingly.

    2000$; okay good sales.

    If you are getting such responses through SEO; then no doubt you should spend 10 to 15% over there.
    That's my suggestion, I don't know how do you think.

    There is no formula to find how much your should spend on SEO but you definitely must not undervalue the importance of SEO. If you do not want to go into SEO on your own, find yourself a reliable and inexpensive SEO company and trust your site optimization in their hands.
