New to Fiverr... Great concept but ready to throw my mouse

[tuckedj1]

Pardon my question, but I have surfed through all the “helps” and clicked every option on the site, bringing me to this post. After hours of searching, I found 3 sellers who I want for design. I have not found an option to give details about the job I need undertaken. Shouldn’t that info accompany the payment for starting the job. I am afraid the “helps” have not been very helpful. Actually, it almost seems as if the site has undergone changes that are not reflected in the “helps”.

I dropped the option of posting a request for sellers because I keep getting rejected by the admin. Reading over the lists of “whys”… I still can not see what error I committed, unless I am on some “temporary Fiverr training wheel” status. Again, not being able to post a request… I selected individual artists. Am I to wait for their response before giving the specifics? Please advise.

Hi. 🙂 I guess it all can be a bit confusing at the start.

You contacted the sellers you have chosen over the Contact Me button and sent them an inbox message? If yes, they probably will reply pretty soon, depends a bit on time zone and such, but most sellers try to reply within 24 hours, because else our response rate will drop.

As far as the request is concerned - there are a lot of sellers who, which isn´t allowed, try to post ads in the section for buyers to post their request, so Fiverr tries to filter those out,

but that apparently sometimes catches real requests. It can help to word the request very clearly and unmistakably so that the automatic process is ‘sure’ you´re a buyer,

like “I am… I want…I need…”.

And welcome here, too.

edit:

Actually yes, if you already ordered and paid, you should have active gigs and at least most sellers have a ‘Gig Requirement Page’ where you can fill in info, attach files etc., you can find those pages when you click on Buying > Manage Orders > Missing Details, see screenshot:
