Fiverr Pro is HORSE SHIT.

Stop saying BS. As a designer who has worked for a known agency, i can tell you WE already did a logo for 80k$. You know what do we call this? Professionalism and being well known.

You have a different experience than everyone else here. IMers are generally cheap and cut corners financially wherever they can.

I told 2 friends that I charge $1+ a word for offline projects and they went berserk. "I can get great content for $20/1000 words!"

But when you work with a particular type of client, they won't look at you if you don't charge a certain price point. And they have the budget for these type of things. Price is usually no object for them and they understand that they truly do get what they pay for.

So just keep that in mind. You work with a different type of client, and you have experience in a whole other sector of the business world.

Of course they don't understand.

No offense to anyone here.

You couldn't be more accurate. I recently lost a project because i charged 3k for it. We still hadn't done anything but the client preferred to go with someone who charged 10k. As you said, it's a different world

@SEO - your turn :)

I'm not sure what's expected of me here.

My comment was simply to point out that charging what you think you're worth is fine, but that Fiverr put themselves in a strange/unique position. If you think X units of your time to complete task Y is worth $5, then Fiverr is a great platform for you. For Fiverr to charge more than their name indicates is disingenuous. They pigeon-holed themselves by choosing the name Fiverr.

Therefore, @Sherbert Hoover being annoyed at Fiverr for charging more than the basis for the founding of their platform, but then claiming that he charges what he believes his time is worth, are not contradictory in my opinion. Fiverr, again in my opinion, should have gone the Freelancer Pty Ltd route and started acquiring other properties that fit their growth desires.

Now, if you'll excuse me

I may have oversold the excitement of my adventure with the above gif. I'm actually just going to go do some coding. Tomato Tamoto.

yep. I curb stomp losers all the time and I charge almost 30x more than they do. LOL
 
Better still, buy logos from the marketplace here, resell on Fiverr.

Profit!!!

Maybe some logos here buy from Fiverr. I ever hire SEO here, and he uses Fiverr for $50 and resells on BHW for $250. He gives a refund Since I know it :D

Of course, if your agency already known as public and your guys have own website in 1st page on Google... But this FIVERR who dum seller and buyer get along with..

Yes but did you sell it through a crappy platform like Fiverr?

It's like saying you sell genuine £40k Rolex watches and trying to sell them in the UK in Poundland or Poundworld.

( If you American have $1 stores, that is the same concept a $40k Rolex for sale in $1 store ).

People still won't buy it because of who is selling it.
 
Only heard positive stuff from these guys, although the logos are awful and aren't worth the amount paid. Its not fair.

But only heard good things from them, this is a first...
 
I recently posted a few gigs on fiverr for the first time and saw that pop up. I figured you needed to have an existing sales built up but how do all those accounts have 0 rating and are considered "Pro" ?!?

Fiverr says anyone can become a pro seller, even brand new sellers. You just have to go through their vetting process.

Whatever that means.
 
I applied and didn't hear back. Anyone a pro seller? My account is aged but I didn't do anything with it. My portfolio is amazing and my stuff is on some well known brands. I figure if I don't hear anything in a week or two I've been rejected. I might build up my profile by figuring out something and try again later.
 
Fiverr should come to our forum and read our $hit but anyhow they still need to turn a buck, I guess.... LOL
