How to Effectively Cross Sell on Fiverr

[smartwebcontent]

Hi guys & gals,



My name is Jaymes. In this forum post I’m going to let you in on how I successfully cross sell on Fiverr.



What is cross selling? Simply put, it’s when you’ve already sold a gig to your buyer and then sold them yet another gig you own. Not to be confused with upselling.



Let me tell you how I cross sell on Fiverr.



I am a marketer and copywriter by trade and provide press releases for my buyers. A press release is normally comprised of three main sections:

1. Title and sub-heading
   
2. Body content
   
3. Boilerplate
   
   
   
   I provide the first two items within my press release gig. I don’t however, provide the boilerplate. A boilerplate is the ‘About Us’ section. Within my press release gig, I ask the reader if they want a boilerplate with their press release and then point them to my boilerplate gig.
   
   
   
   Once the buyer has ordered the gig, I once again ask the buyer if they have a boilerplate (in the message sent to the buyer) and tell them to order my boilerplate gig if they don’t have one. Many buyers that are ordering a press release for the first time won’t necessarily have a boilerplate, so spending a further five bucks on one is great value.
   
   
   
   To date, I cross sell my boilerplate gig on 80% of my press release gig orders. That’s a phenomenal rate.
   
   
   
   Is there something you’re doing for free that you could charge for when carrying out an order? If there is, inform your buyer by adding a link to your gig text and in the message sent to the buyer when they order your gig. You should see a healthy return.
   
   
   
   Let me and other Fiverrites know your cross selling experiences.
   
   
   
   Warm regards,
   
   Jaymes
