Time/week spent: 5h - 15h

When starting the Customer Service Automation Architect side hustle, individuals typically spent between 5 to 15 hours per week on it. Initially, more time was needed for learning and setting up automation systems, which gradually reduced to maintenance and client support. Tasks included learning automation tools, designing workflows, client consultations, and troubleshooting. The time commitment was usually part-time, with more hours upfront during the setup phase and fewer hours as systems became established. Most people online reported spending similar amounts of time, with variations based on individual client loads and project complexity.
