charleytakaya Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 No… I don’t work for anyone - well not like I have a boss other than myself, the universe and all those who I help, I guess… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest tn5rr2012 Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 No, Fiverr is my second job. I am trying to save up to buy a home in 2013 so I have to have as many sources of income I can get. Plus I have vision problems so I can’t give up the health insurance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cassysailermoon Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 I could quit my job-- I make enough money on Fiverr that I could do that, but I’m not going to for now because I’m saving for school. But once school starts, I’m quitting my sandwich-making job and doing Fiverr only!! 😃 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wadheanand Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 Three years back i quit my job because of some internal problems with my co worker regarding one of my designs, i decided that i don’t wanted to the job so i just spent a month sitting at home and doing nothing and then one day i found about Fiverr on Google… since then i am a free bird. I am work hard and party hard type of guy, things are really cool now.Thanks Fiverr. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nicred Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 Part time at the moment. I am hoping to be able to save up money for some travels with my Fiverr earnings and some new studio gear. 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marsch001 Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 I instead recently started a part-time job. Mainly because Fiverr doesn’t pay enough for me yet (I’m hoping it will eventually, but with the conversion rate being as it is, it’s not looking likely any time soon as I have to work twice as hard) but also because it’s far easier to put an actual reference on a CV than this. I’m hoping to be able to cut down on my part-time job though and do a lot more Fiverr, but I need to do some more gigs I think (which I’m slowly working on).

freelancemm Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 I make more here than I do in person on an hourly basis, but the work is still fairly inconsistent. Once I hit a certain amount of stability with online earnings and a certain amount of savings though I plan on going 100% online and if all else fails I have more than enough work experience to get back into the working field within a year, however I think it would be fair to give Fiverr and the whole online thing at least a year after I get enough savings up just in case there is down time on Fiverr for me or I want to take mini personal vacations. That’s the thing I love most about Fiverr is that after I clear out pending orders, I can increase delivery time and go on vacations in a sense without having to worry about work. What other job lets you do that? 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
athruz Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 Hello, I’ve been a member for two-weeks and I’ve sold a little over ten gigs and learned a whole lot about this style of micro-work. As I increase my exposure and continue to study/learn and provide my buyers with top-quality work I’m exploring new was to get potential buyers to my gigs. What are your ways of driving traffic to your gigs? What conversion rate % would you need to garner enough in the queue to quit the day job? Thanks and much success in your adventures.

dobguy1 Posted September 29, 2013 Share Posted September 29, 2013 I write articles and blogs on Fiverr and have to admit I have to admit I learned so much just meeting new people and learning to write better. I started writing after I got sick with meningitis. I had cognitive issues after the hospital so I stopped working as an electrician. Now I am a level two seller and have even begun promoting my gigs off Fiverr. I started a blogging service called Dave’s Blogging Services and sell my blog and article work for ten bucks for 500 words. Fiverr has helped me reach this goal and I even wrote two books and had them published! So whoopee for Fiverr and yes this Is a major source of income for this Marine Corps vet!

marsch001 Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 Reply to @madmoo: Did you have a buffer built up from/on Fiverr when you quit your job, just in case your gigs would suddenly take a downturn (just because you decided to do it full-time)?
