Time/week spent: 5h - 20h

Initially, more time was spent sourcing equipment from garage sales, thrift stores, and online marketplaces. This involved research and travel. As the business grew, time was also spent on cleaning, repairing, and refurbishing equipment. Listing items online, handling inquiries, and managing sales took additional time. Marketing efforts, such as posting on social media or creating ads, were also necessary. Over time, as processes became more efficient, the time required decreased. Online communities suggest that the time commitment can vary widely based on the scale of the operation and the availability of equipment.
