Fiverr a Hellhole

[sscaz]

So I started on Fiverr with two gigs, and since I am pretty good at getting people what they want I managed in just a month to have 6 jobs ranging from 180$-450$ (Even tho my gigs are 40$ I make custom orders.
95% Times everything goes well you do all the things you said you will do you also do more and give some tips/info/tutorials so that they would also leave you a tip, but that 5% are just hellholes full of people wanting you to do stuff that you didn't agree upon or people who want you to deliver before the due date, etc when I meet such people I just want to finish my gig as fast as possible and never work with them again...

I thought fiverr was the hellhole.
You find such customers on every platform, it is not fiverr that is the hellhole.

Happens all the time, everywhere. The problem with platform like Fiverr is you can't know the client before order.

Btw if you managed to do 6 orders and at least one of them turned out be hellhole, the % is 16.67 not 5. #JustSaying.

It was the 7th order and 7 by 100% is almost 15% but that isnt the important thing

Actually more, some people just waste you time on fiverr chat.
In my opinion majority are tirekickers.

What is a tire kicker? An individual who appears interested in making a purchase, but never makes a buying decision. Tire kickers frequently engage with sales teams by asking questions and raising objections, prolonging the sales process without ever committing to a deal.

Basically 90% of women you want to say?

I know.

You get get that kind of people once in a while, everywhere. You have to weed them out. As you mention, complete the work as fast as possible and never work with them again, is the right way.

Well, that happens everywhere including offline.

Even in BHW, people come and talk to you for hours and days and then just disappear forever.
Nothing specific to Fiverr for sure.

What's funniest is that I am really fast and efficient that I finish work of 200$ in 5 hours or so... This is just a side hustle to get more cash to invest and save up. But I plan to make a really good income on Fiverr and such sites on passive since I got really amazing plans.

You need to make your offers appealing and make good description/title also make your profile look good, put a proffesional photo in a usit or som shit on your pfp and a good b io about yourself

It's not that Fiverr is a hellhole. It's that, some clients are a**hole. And they are everywhere.

Maybe, but i really think the big problem is Marketing

If I need something from fiverr I just automate the shit to send out 30-100 message to different fiver sellers asking for offers and choosing from the responses. Maybe majority aren't tirekickers but bargainers and people that are searching or low ballers.

Or you're just an automated tire kicker?

How do you automate it?

 

[UKSEO2022]

the issue with fiverr is like selling on amazon, you cant say no to the customers , thats the issue selling on marketplaces

 

[Ndiqi]

That's how it is with working on providing your service on platform like Fiverr, I rather go with upwork where I can find just 1-2 long-term clients that willing to pay me monthly worth of work than doing gigs where I have to meet someone new and getting dragged into unexpected situations.

I know some friends of mine on Upwork that get decent payments from their client and even asked to not accept offer from other projects for good money (retained).

 

[multikriminell]

I believe 5% is a really good amount of bs. You can never take that number to zero. Can you tell what type of services you provide?

what more did you expect?
Fiverr is a place where you are competing for the lowest prices
