Time/week spent: 5h - 15h

Working as an online escape room designer typically required a time commitment ranging from 5 to 15 hours per week. Initially, more hours were needed for setting up the business, including designing the escape rooms, creating puzzles, and building a website. This upfront workload gradually decreased as the business became established. The time spent each week involved a mix of tasks such as designing new escape rooms, testing them for quality, handling client inquiries, marketing the services through social media or online platforms, and managing administrative tasks. The time investment varied based on the number of projects in progress and client demands. Online discussions suggest that the hustle could be more time-intensive during the setup phase but became more manageable over time, with many individuals spending a moderate amount of time on this side business.
