Passive income: NO

Earning passive income solely from being an AI Procurement Optimization Consultant is unlikely for most individuals. While it's possible to automate aspects of the consultancy service through AI tools and systems, ongoing client interaction and customization typically require active participation. Setting up automation may range from $500 to $1000. Achieving passive income in this field is rare, with most consultants needing to actively engage with clients to provide value and maintain relationships. While some outliers may manage to create passive income streams through scalable solutions or recurring services, it is not the norm. Misleading expectations often revolve around the idea of setting and forgetting consultancy services, which is generally not realistic in practice.
