Passive income: NO

Earning passive income as an e-commerce consultant is challenging and rare. Most consultants actively engage with clients, requiring ongoing effort. To make it passive, one would need to develop systems like automated client onboarding, standardized service packages, and outsourcing tasks. However, few achieve this due to the personalized nature of consulting. On platforms like Reddit and YouTube, successful stories often involve outliers who leverage extensive networks or unique expertise. Many fall for myths of easy passive income, but realistically, it requires significant upfront work and strategic planning. For most, it remains an active endeavor.
