before anyone says it, yeah "1 hour a day" didnt happen from day 1 lol
first months were messy
testing products, dealing with suppliers, customer issues, ads burning money
but over time i started automating things:
- order fulfillment systems
- basic customer support templates
- ad testing frameworks
biggest shift was focusing on systems instead of random products
now i mostly:
- check metrics
- adjust ads
- monitor issues
rest runs on its own (more or less)
not fully passive but way more manageable
anyone else doing dropshipping here?
