Hi everyone, a new artist here! (^v^)/

[meg_sowka]

Hello everyone! 🥰

Thank you for having me here! I'm a digital artist who struggling to gain customers here on fiver. But I'm doing my best and not giving up! 
2020 wasn't really kind for me and so far 2021 isn't much better. But! I optimistic so 'You can't have a RAINBOW, without a little RAIN', right? 😄 

Anyway. As you can see below I'm a digital artist. I already had my first two orders (i was lucky on reddit) and so I'm happy to present them to you!
Wish I could show you the reference photos 'cause I'm pretty proud of how similar those portraits are 😄

Hi Meg_sowka, welcome to the forum!

Sorry it took a little while for somebody to reply to you. This forum is experiencing a lot of spam at the moment. Some people mistakenly believe that posting meaningless, repetitive content will earn them gig ranking and sales. It's unfortunate, because serious posts like yours are getting buried pretty quickly.

Well done on your good start to life on Fiverr! I hope you're able to build on it. 🙂

Hello.  Fellow artist. 🤘 First thing I would do is increase the price so it can be differentiated from other 5$ gigs.  And continue to market on Reddit.  At the start Fiverr doesn't really give you any impressions or clicks. After few good ratings month it will gain traction gradually.  For me I have used instagram, reddit etc... to get started, little bit easier market than any other services 🙂

If you don't care about your mental health I suggest you try Buyer's Request section. Sometimes it has some worthwhile request.

Welcome to fiverr forum! Happy to see a fellow artist joining the platform. These portraits look great! Be patient, but proactive and you'll get there. I took a glance at your profile and I think a more elaborate and informative description would go a long way. Best of luck to you! 😊

Hi, thank you for your message! 🙂 
Actually, while posting this topic I got a new request! So I'm supper happy about it 🙂 The sad part is that I haven't realized that Fiverr takes 20% of my income 😅
As a new seller I set my prices low but after gaining some popularity I might change them a bit. Unless I'll become super fast at drawing 😆

Anyway, thank you for your response and kind words!! 🥰

I did think about increasing the prices, but I was thinking that it's actually gonna be worse for me at least at the beginning since more expensive gigs = less ppl interested. Though I might be wrong about it 🤔

I didn't know about Buyer's Request so thank you for mentioning it! I did took a look in there but there is nothing that would work nicely with my drawing style. BUT! I'm gonna keep an eye on it so thank you! 🥰

As an artist we should thrive for better and charge what we worth. For me everyone on fiverr should at least triple their prices. After all good artists are rare species. There is like 20 good artist from first page all of them has like 10-20 orders in queue. There isn't any competition yet. Not yet saturated like graphic design gigs.
