lilacpunch Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 When you reach out to see if a buyer needs more work,can you send promotional offers to these previous buyers?( For example if they’ve said they’ll be checking back in to order more in the future )I do graphics, so if I said instead of 5 graphics for $10 , I would send them a message saying now until - [date] you can receive 8 graphics for $10.My gig for new buyers would be the same but previous buyers would have a promotional offer.Is it allowed on Fiverr to send a promotional message offering them more for the same rate of your gig?

landongrace Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 I would not send messages to past clients or anyone on Fiverr. This will be considered spam.Only respond to people that send you messages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing just to get a sale or pester a buyer, this is good information. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

woofy31 Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 @misscrystal thank you@rankinfinite thank youIf you still don’t believe the people who told you it’s not allowed, take me as an example: back in 2010 or 2011, I was young, naive and foolish, so I did what you said you want to do and Fiverr temporarily suspended my account. Who would’ve thought that I had the spam quality at that time? :crazy_face:Back then Fiverr was more forgiving and they believed in second chances, which I received, but nowadays I don’t think they believe in second chances anymore considering the amount of sellers on the platform as opposed to the lack of sellers back in the days 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the volume of sellers trying to cheat and break the rules has increased so they don’t bother to forgive anyone, along with having so many sellers as woofy said.

gina_riley2 Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 Well, I’ve had sellers that offer me promotional in their delivery or in the thank you message, if I happen to tip them.“I really enjoyed working on this project with you. The next you need my service, please message me first as I’d like to offer you . . . .”Of course, be careful who you offer it to, some may abuse it.I enjoy getting special messages like that. It makes me feel good — I rarely take them up on it, but will remember it. 😀 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

meddlinx Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 I think yes you can. Fiverr support sent me this in one of their message “It’s always helpful to send a quick note to the buyer’s inbox, letting them know that you haven’t forgotten about them.” This might help you. 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reaching out to previous buyers is also known as spam so I’m not sure why they would tell you to do it. I think you must not have understood what they were saying or when they meant it was ok to do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
