It's Tips and Tricks Tuesday! Here's some simple and quick ways to make more at Fiverr!
Fiverr is a nice and convenient way to make money doing things you're good at, such as graphic design, programming, math, drawing, talking, or anything like that. Each gig starts at a base of $5 (with a pretty high tax from Fiverr), up to a pretty high limit ($300 I think) from gig extras. These you determine, as well as pretty much everything else. However, getting people to buy your gig? That's a whole different issue that everyone encounters as they start out. Getting buyers can take weeks, often months. Here are some ways to speed up that process and get your gigs more views and buys! (Sign up here)
1. Offer a Little Extra
There are definitely no lack of gigs on Fiverr. You want to catch people's attention? (At least when beginning) Put something extra that others don't provide in your title, so yours seems like the best deal. For example, if you're offering to edit a video, and everyone's offering for 10 minutes, make yours 15 or 20, at least when starting out. People will naturally look for the best deal. This will help you start out significantly.
2. Spread The Word on Social Media
Social media is, if not the best, one of the best tools for sharing anything, and that includes marketing such as Fiverr. You don't need too many friends or followers, just post it on some communities, and get your friends to share it too, even if it takes lots of nagging until they finally do it. It will massively boost viewers and get you some buyers too, if you get enough viewers that are looking for what you're selling.3. Use Effective Visuals
This is pretty straightforward; put something catchy as your image, and make a high quality video. You'll seem more professional and people will want to buy your gig. Have a video including yourself talking (hopefully in a professional setting). Doing his will create a more personal connection and get you more sales. Catching people's eyes is important in writing, and is also important here, in business.4. Make Your Title Short And To The Point
No one wants to read a terribly long title like "I will do editing on any video on any subject as long as it is within 10 minutes and does not contain more than 15 clips". Make it short and quick so people can tell what you're going to do while skimming and discover whether it's what they want or not. People often skim (in fact, almost always) when there are a lot of choices. If your title is too long, no one will read the whole thing, and probably won't check it out. You can also do some deceptive wording to get more viewers, but it probably won't help sales much if at all.
5. Tell Your Readers What You Offer; All of it
In your description, write out what you offer, and bold/highlight/bullet the most important points so your readers are directed to the advantages of your service are. Try not to mention your disadvantages too much, and the reason behind that is obvious.
6. Do Some SEO Work
Use the best tags, ones that people would actually check, and optimize your gig for searches. Use keywords to do this. In addition, having a video is very important for getting views, at least on Fiverr. More views obviously means more purchases. This strategy works for practically any marketing, and remains true in this case as well.
As always, thanks for reading and I hope you will share this with your friends so that they can also make more money off of Fiverr and other websites!
