Time/week spent: 10h - 20h

As a talent agent, the time commitment can vary depending on your client base and workload. On average, talent agents typically spend between 10 to 20 hours per week on this side hustle. Initially, a significant amount of time is spent on building and maintaining relationships with clients and industry contacts, as well as scouting for new talent. This may involve attending events, networking, and conducting auditions. Once the roster is established, time spent on client management, contract negotiations, and scheduling auditions takes precedence. The time allocation may shift over time, with more focus on client work and less on scouting as the business matures. Online communities suggest that the time investment for this hustle is moderate compared to some other side hustles, making it a feasible option for those with a passion for the entertainment industry.
