artistprogramme Posted March 28, 2021 Share Posted March 28, 2021 hey there sellers on fiverr,in this Topic i wanted to talk how we as sellers get scamed by only ourselves, look to my story:i had a buyer that wanted a website for small price and he said i have only small budget not enough even for basic package ,so i said it is fine i would make it (and my imagination was that i will make the website and than he will make a good review than i will get more clients than i will raise the price ),well i delivered the package it was very nice and responsive here is it : https:****but even so i didnt get what i thinked it will be,well i did get really fooled even when asking for a review from the buyer he didnt even respond, so what i have learned is put your real work price if he wants it than make it, if not dont get fooled by yourselfMOD NOTE link removed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

imagination7413 Posted March 28, 2021 Share Posted March 28, 2021 I see a lot of advice that encourages the freelance tropes - the idea that we’re all workaholic night owls, perpetually hunched over keyboards, waiting at the beck and call of potential clients. Never log out… Always be agreeable to clients… Give free samples or mock ups… Answer right away… If you needed an experienced professional to give you permission, in plain words, here it is: it’s okay to be a human being. Never give out free work. No samples. No mockups. Period. That’s what your po… Just an FYI, a better word to use in this instance (instead of ‘imagination’) is ‘assumption’. Never make assumptions.

tenebres_telrei Posted March 29, 2021 Share Posted March 29, 2021 When working with the clients, its often can be a hit or a miss. You never know. But as @imagination7413 have said, never make assumptions. It’s where your hopes can be quite easily shattered. 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
