That sounds about right. If you increase the number of followers, your gig will get more activity on Fiverr (I assume you're selling there) because the only real deciding factor on which gig people order is how many followers their message will be seen by.
Another Fiverr tip: create multiple gigs with slightly different keywords and wording, but selling the same thing. More gigs = more eyeballs = more orders. Everyone does this, even the biggest sellers.
If you build up a few more accounts and can get between 200-300k followers, consider opening up a BST thread here.
