Giving a Chance to New Sellers!

[somaginer1996]

I’d like, for example, to know how to contact its targets, on which forums, which pages to find them …

Isn’t that something only you can find out? After all, none of us are offering your gigs with your specific skill set. IMO, you should do some research and find that out for yourself rather than waiting for answers on the forum.

I’d like to know how to promote my gigs.

Don’t you have a degree in marketing management?

[jonbaas]

I know it may look a bit stupid to ask that lend me a hand like that, but I’d like to know how to promote my gigs.

You have the ability to figure out what works for you through a little effort and research. Asking me to give you a step-by-step guarantee for success is not going to happen. When I first went into business as a freelancer (long before coming here to Fiverr) I had to take the time to research my own market, and figure out how my services could benefit that market. You have the ability to do the same… you should do the same. You need to do the same.

You are a freelance businessman. You are going to have to learn what that entails, and YOU are going to have to do the research, planning, and experimentation to make that happen. We are not a charity. We are not going to do all of that massive amount of work for you.

If you are serious about being successful, YOU will take action to figure out what YOU need to do to achieve the goals YOU set for yourself. And it would be wise not to try to take the easy road, because only the hard road leads to success.

And no, DO NOT spam forums and pages. That is NOT how you market a business.

Thank you all for your advices, I’m sure they will serve me. I try to do the necessary research.
If I expressed a clumsiness, I hope you aren’t angry. I don’t want you to be frustrated by my intervention. After all, I’m taking my first steps.
Thank you gays for your understanding and your indulgence.

The forum search is a wonderful feature

Guide: Get your First Order

Here on fiverr, the competition is fierce and new sellers don’t usually stand a chance, but with more people like you, there’s hope.

the competition is fierce

That’s true, the bar has been raised much higher which is actually good for buyers.

new sellers don’t usually stand a chance

I don’t quite agree with that. There are plenty of new sellers who get to level 2 within 2 months.

new sellers don’t usually stand a chance

I can’t agree with that.
Of course some categories are totally full. But everywhere I look I can see “New sellers” on the searches first pages.
The problem is not visibility. The problem for a new seller is the “Fiverr experience”. knowing what to do to and to do not for a gig to work.
And this Forum is a good place to learn that

[article_kween]

A larger number of buyers especially in writing and translation niche tend to buy from only sellers with visible credibility. Such as more reviews.

[damdsn]

probably
I’ve bought a translation on fiverr and I only focused on the rating and the amount of comments

but for a logo I choose an artist because of her galery

Not all the cactegories are equals

[uxreview]

writing and translation niche tend to buy from only sellers with visible credibility

That’s because we can’t trust gig descriptions anymore. Some sellers copy their description from others and even the samples are stolen.

Personally I hire new writers only when they have a video, they are active in forum or they have a blog.

Sometimes it does not work out that well, see my post about this experience.

Helping a new seller - Failed

Guys, I wanted to share my story, how disappointed I am. 11 days ago I have seen a new seller post, how enthusiastic article writer this new seller was. He wants to make it on Fiverr. He is serious about this. I wanted to help him earning a 5 star review, I ordered a blog post from him on a given topic. Win-win, I needed the blog post, he needs a raving review, and I hoped I can give a 5 star one given it’s quality work. The promise was 24 hour delivery. Here we are, 10 days after my order, wa…

[uxreview]

This can happen with an experienced seller as well.
I used a logo designer for quite a few orders and then all of a sudden he decided to quit Fiverr. Not sure why, but he dropped everything including orders in progress.

Thanks a lot bro

[barik2siku]

Such an honest and warm talks (coming straight out of the heart)!!! Wish,every other member of this platform called Fiverr would have nurtured the same thought as that of yours! Anyway, as a new member here I too feel the same vulnerability as many other newbies. But, I do have trust in my skills and the experience of so many years dedicated to gain this skill. So, I think, it’s only a matter of time to get noticed. And, when you get this ‘break’ just prove yourself and voila!!! Your story starts…

Best wishes for other newbies here. Be confident and there will be your turn too.

wow !! what a post man …good job @gina_riley2
i like your post because you are the first person on fiverr i ever seen before who gives chance to new sellers without thinking about there money…great work

[rafsan_xani]

l new sellers are created the same. Some are professionals from the day job or previous career and truly are EXPERTS in what they do. Being a freelancer on 5r means there is no overhead and it’s a cost saving for them.

Really a great … i have learned so many things from this post . thanks a lot for sharing

[shahgraphicx]

great post,
this is fact

[nikavoice]

@gina_riley2 is one of the BEST Buyers on Fiverr. Hopefully, we’ll get to read more of her helpful posts in the near future. Miss you, Gina!
