I used a same-server, level 60 alt to place Personal Orders on my main and got this achievement and Merchant Artisan in a few hours.

Specifically, I ordered Surveyor's Cloth Bands (cheap + Blue disenchanting) with a 12hr timer (cheapest). 50 pending Personal Orders seems to be the limit, so I swapped between ordering and fulfilling. On my server, the total cost was ~70k, including leveling and profession equipment for crafting speed.

Write a macro, use an addon, or simply do this is chunks. Save your wrists.

Hope this helps.

As mentioned by Hamen, it seems the easiest way to complete this achievement is by sending work orders to your own alts. I figured out the following macro that should make it easier to place work orders in bulk. You can place up to 50 orders, and then you have to switch over to your alt and start crafting.

Make sure you are at the Crafting Orders NPC with the Place Order tab open
Replace "NAME" with the character you are sending the work order to
Replace 47951 with the recipeID you want. 47951 is Runed Serevite Rod. You can use any recipe you like, though I don't know how to look up the recipeID on wowhead (they use spellID)

/run C_CraftingOrders.PlaceNewOrder({ skillLineAbilityID=47951, orderType=2, orderDuration=0, tipAmount=100, customerNotes="", orderTarget="NAME", reagentItems={}, craftingReagentItems={} })

When on your crafter, the following macro will attempt to click on "Start Order" or "Create" or "Complete Order". You'll still need to open up the work order and pick from the list, but spamming the macro will help go through the button clicks faster. Make sure you have the reagents available to do the crafting. (Edit: Updated for new confirmation prompt)
/run function c(b) if b:IsVisible() then b:Click() end end; f=ProfessionsFrame.OrdersPage.OrderView; c(f.OrderInfo.StartOrderButton); c(f.CreateButton); c(StaticPopup1Button1); c(f.CompleteOrderButton);

Afterwards, this macro made it easier to clear all the completed orders from my mailbox (make sure the mailbox is open):
/click MailItem1Button
/click OpenMailAttachmentButton1
/click OpenMailDeleteButton

Shot out to shoogen and Frostybolts. I was attempting to use shoogen's macro to submit work orders, and Frostybolts code to find the skillLineAbilityId for an engineering item. Finding the skillLineAbilityId didn't work for me dumping every recipe item as the item was more than 100 items deep in the recipes table. There seems to be a cap for the number of items that can be printed out in a single macro.

I ended up using this to target a specific work order item, where as an example Handful of Serevite Bolts is was what you wanted crafted:

/run for _, id in pairs(C_TradeSkillUI.GetAllRecipeIDs()) do local ri = C_TradeSkillUI.GetRecipeInfo(id); if ri.name == "Handful of Serevite Bolts" then print(ri.recipeID, ri.skillLineAbilityID, ri.name); break; end; end;

Just replace "Handful of Serevite Bolts" with the item you're targeting.

For Leatherworkers who wants to do this: Copy this string and you'll craft the Pioneer's Leather Wristguards - Which is the cheapest item :>

(Dont forget to change the orderTarget!) :)

/run C_CraftingOrders.PlaceNewOrder({ skillLineAbilityID=47097, orderType=2, orderDuration=0, tipAmount=1, customerNotes="", orderTarget="NAME OF RECIEVER", reagentItems={}, craftingReagentItems={} })
