If you’re starting dropshipping alongside a full time job, I’d say try to put in at least 3 to 4 hours a day. You’re still a beginner, so you need time to learn new skills and actually apply what you’re learning.
But if you’re not working a full time job and your main focus is dropshipping, then you should treat it like a real job. That means putting in 5-8 hours a day. Use that time to work on your store, test products and ads, and improve your process. You’ll see progress way faster than someone who’s only putting in 1-2 hours a day.
