Time/week spent: 10h - 20h

In running a freelance web development agency, the time commitment typically ranges from 10 to 20 hours per week. Initially, more time is needed for setting up the business, which might involve creating a portfolio, setting up contracts, and establishing a client base. This could take around 2 weeks to start generating profit. Time is usually spent on a mix of activities such as client work, project management, communication, marketing, and administrative tasks. As the business stabilizes, the time spent may decrease as systems become more efficient. Online communities suggest that the time investment can vary, with some freelancers putting in more hours than others depending on workload and client demands.
