Time/week spent: 5h - 15h

Time was spent on setting up the stand, actual shoe shining, customer interaction, and marketing (flyers, social media). Initially, more time was spent on learning techniques and building a client base. Over time, the hours became more consistent as the process became streamlined. This was a part-time hustle, with more time invested upfront. Online, people mention that shoe shining can be demanding in terms of physical effort but not necessarily time-intensive once established.
