Is there any limit on submitting offers to buyers request in v2? [ARCHIVED]

And that is the core of this issue. You really care about YOUR sales, and that is perfectly understandable. But it seems you would also like to send many gig offers to buyers - buyers who generally do NOT buy what you want to sell, even when you send tham a message. So from the BUYER'S point of view, getting many offers, (from you and many other sellers too), is just like spam - unwanted or off-topic emails. So Fiverr has a new plan to limit the number of offers a seller can send.

 

Your profile shows that you have only been on Fiverr for about a week, so you probably don't have much history of verified sales on Fiverr. That is not saying you are not competent - just that you have not had enough good transactions yet to PROVE that you are competent and reliable. Eventually, if you get good quality sales, you can be at a higher level, and will be allowed to send more gig requests. But while you are new and untested, (compared to other sellers), the limit is in place to protect buyers from spam.

 

I might be wrong on the number, but I think I read that new sellers like you can only send one offer a day. So 30 offers a month. So if one out of three buyers who get your request actually buy a gig from you and leave positive feedback you can still be upgraded in a month and then be allowed to send more requests. But it also means you sent 20 offers to people who didn't want to buy from you, and that took some time from them all to deal with your request. So it is a blancing act.

 

Note: This is a new rule, and might change if enough customers (buyers and sellers) give Fiverr a good reason to change or adjust the limits again.

I have the same problem, but i think that fiverr should aloud you to send more offers because giving more options for the costumer is better because he or she can find the perfect gig for him/her, although i agree that there are some times that it becomes spamming, but the buyers placed the gig to find options…

Yeah, this is a good question! The playing field should be leveled. Some of are really, really talented and gifted at what we do. Meanwhile, we choose to offer our products and services for $5.00 to initiate business, those who on a higher level seem to get all the gigs and their not that great to me! In regards to what they do or offer, the playing field needs to be leveled; meaning you should be entitled to offer your products or services to more than one gig. I think 7 should be the minimum for offers throughout this site per week. One offer per day basically!

Reply to @designotree:

"You must have at least 95% positive rating to make new offers!"

In case you don’t have 95% rating you’ll need to use the “search bar” to be able to submit an offer.

Fiverr shows a tip at the top of the page in orange explaining what you have to achieve.

Question. Was this decision made in regards to a buyers complaint in the Old Fiverr platform? Because Surely and correct me if I am wrong but I think a lot of Sellers on level 1,2 and Upwards made their bank by sending a their reply to the buyers request section.

Now with this new restriction it will now do two things:

  1. Slow the rate of advancement on already leveled sellers.
  2. Make it extremely hard on new sellers to get to a level.



    The Fiverr community is growing daily and I believe in such an environment we cannot and must not bottleneck the rate of advancement on the sellers/buyers.

I just signed up a few months ago, but have only been more active just recently. It might have something to do with how many gigs you have active. I had three gigs open and was able to submit three. Just a guess. Let me know if you see anything else. I’m trying to promote more as well. Thanks
