I am primarily dealing with creative writing, stories, settings, characters, non fiction (with base reference sources) and all sorts of other stuff! Message me for a free draft idea if you’re interested! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zeeshan_tirmizi Posted May 15, 2017 Share Posted May 15, 2017 Offering free stuff is against fiverr TOS and it might put you in trouble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jermskin97 Posted May 15, 2017 Author Share Posted May 15, 2017 I didn’t realise, it was more of a service to see what I am capable of before buying so as not to dissuade the buyer out of their money.EDIT: I should note I am not offering free gigs, rather free samples of work to pick through and see if my services are right for their needs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fonthaunt Posted May 15, 2017 Share Posted May 15, 2017 Offering free stuff is against fiverr TOS and it might put you in trouble.I don’t think this is correct. Gigs can’t be given away since there is no way to do it, but I don’t recall anything in the ToS about disallowing free samples. It may or may not be a good idea, but I don’t think it’s a ToS violation. Do you have a source? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fonthaunt Posted May 15, 2017 Share Posted May 15, 2017 Someone told me it’s against TOS to offer free service.Feel free to double check the ToS, but as far as I know, it’s impossible, not against ToS. Use caution when advising others on the forum based on hearsay. 😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brunobaboon Posted May 15, 2017 Share Posted May 15, 2017 I read in another forum that you can send samples of your work to ensure that your writing style is what the buyer is looking for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
