awais_098 Posted April 29, 2021 Share Posted April 29, 2021 Hello! Everyone I hope you all are good and safe.Actually, I’m a student and I provide video editing and photo animation services but recently I’m getting so much work that I’m never free and in this way, I literally get no time for my studies and very little time for sleep and sometimes the work get delayed. I just want to manage both. So my question is that what can I do? Can I hire other freelancers to divide the work? Or any suggestions from senior freelancers are welcome ☺️I also heard about Fiverr studio but I don’t think everyone can set it up as it’s still in beta or something. I don’t want to cut the orders in half by setting any limit on my gig I just want some suggestions on how can I manage it all.Regards,awais_098 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leannelrivers Posted April 29, 2021 Share Posted April 29, 2021 You have a good problem. You can extend your delivery time, raise your price to put off the cheapies, or set your Out of Office. 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vibronx Posted April 29, 2021 Share Posted April 29, 2021 Raise your prices. That is what I do every time I feel overwhelmed with work. Soon you will find that you earn more and have more time. If you become overwhelmed again, you simply raise your prices again.I do not recommend outsourcing your work. You could do it, but you would need to have absolute confidence that those sellers will deliver to the same standard that you do. I know I wouldn’t be able to trust that. 15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imagination7413 Posted April 29, 2021 Share Posted April 29, 2021 I would suggest raising your prices. If you’re getting too much work, you might be charging too little.

sabbir_shuvo Posted April 29, 2021 Share Posted April 29, 2021 I will tell you that even though it is difficult, I know that it is very difficult to continue using fiverr as well as studying. If you continue using fiverr, you will not have to worry about your future career. I’m not a big freelancer to suggest you. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vickiespencer Posted April 29, 2021 Share Posted April 29, 2021 The best will be to hire other freelancersNope, I would not suggest that. The buyer wants the quality of work that the OP shows in his gigs.I know there are sellers that outsource their work, but I would be hesitant to trust my reputation to just anyone. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leannelrivers Posted April 30, 2021 Share Posted April 30, 2021 I agree with @vickiespencer and @vibronx. Outsourcing your work is a risk and will probably create more of a workload as you try to manage each task and the communication with other sellers. And don’t be afraid to use your Out of Office. I know there are plenty of sellers who avoid using it as they think their sales will plummet. I use it often when I need to manage my workload or just have some time to spend with the other human being that apparently lives with me. I’ve never experienced a drought of orders after turning OoO off. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The golden rule of crossing the border to the small group of these lounging under shades in the tropics and earning at the same time is outsourcing. 🙂 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holidays, yes, I like those, but I could never be the kind of person who “lounges in the tropics”. Just not me. I need to work and leave my mark on the world. I suspect others in here feel the same way. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On their behalf, thank you! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
