4 danno1950 Posted October 31, 2022 Share Posted October 31, 2022 (edited) Here's the missing piece to the message from Fiverr - how to become a gig that is exclusively shown on Fiverr Business. Thanks to @mateusblfor pointing to this item in the "Edit" menu for gigs. Still - why on earth would someone intentionally limit their market exposure like this?

By listing exclusively on Fiverr Business, I would limit my exposure to a small population, and eliminate a larger portion of buyers who might want my services. It might be beneficial to sellers who look at their "data", and want to apply the 20:80 rule. IF 80% of your business comes from Business Buyers, it might actually save you time, nerves, and trouble to list your Gig only in Business, for example. They might also "reward" Gigs that are exclusively listed in Business by promoting them more to Business Buyers than Gigs listed in both categories, that would make sense, at least. Ah, dang, the Contacts page doesn't have Business Buyer displayed as a tag. A filter for that would be helpful to see if it might be a good idea and worth a try, perhaps, or not, definitely not. 🙂 Edited October 31, 2022 by miiila 50 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also believe that as long as you are providing good services, it's only a matter of time. You're right, it comes down to gig quality, but also gig type. For example, my career coaching isn't eligible for FBM because it isn't considered a business service. This makes sense to me (kinda). I think Fiverr is (slowly) moving to be a business services focused platform, as opposed to just any freelancing service. They're slowly removing low quality gigs, and I expect will start limiting certain categories that aren't business focused. They really want to create two platforms I think. One for high end business services / large prices, and one for non business services, like careers, and probably witchcraft and wizardry. The problem I have is that business buyers aren't necessarily businesses. Buyers just set up a business account because they prefer the sound of it even if they're not an actual business. 28 2 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These buyers will not see the regular gigs. So, having my gigs in the Fiverr Business category will allow me to reach the largest audience possible. I just don't understand this particular notification; it seems to imply that I can create gigs specifically for the Fiverr Business category.

0 danno1950 Posted October 31, 2022 Share Posted October 31, 2022 This is the most bizarre message I've ever received from Fiverr. It says you can tailor your gigs for Fiverr Business. My question - why would I do that? By listing exclusively on Fiverr Business, I would limit my exposure to a small population, and eliminate a larger portion of buyers who might want my services. I followed the button at the bottom of the email, and it just sent me to my gig page, like the example above. From there - dead end. There was no strategy presented on how to actually make this transition, or even a hint of where to start. 37 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They see a list of selected sellers. Fiverr Business Buyers pay $100 per year to maintain their accounts, so they are technically better buyers on paper. However, most of them get their first year for free. Edited October 31, 2022 by strategist_ceo 34 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It depends on whether there are boosters within the Fiverr business accounts. Some of the gigs will make sense to sell on Fiverr Business, like personal assistant (PA) services and virtual assistant services. You're right though, why will anyone limit their exposure. I can see why I will want to create a gig to be on business if it is currently not in that category. 35 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 cartoon_avatar Posted October 31, 2022 Share Posted October 31, 2022 Is this feature made available to Seller Plus members only? I haven't received any such notification yet. Or is it available for particular categories only? 33 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 katakatica Posted October 31, 2022 Share Posted October 31, 2022 My first hunch was that maybe people in certain niches (logo making, voice acting, etc.) could potentially benefit from having only 'vetted' clients? It makes absolutely no sense in my case (indie games/books) but.. if there is some sort of an extra boost if you use you FB, I can sort of see it but otherwise, doesn't feel like a feature that will help me out personally! 34 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IF 80% of your business comes from Business Buyers, it might actually save you time, nerves, and trouble to list your Gig only in Business, for example. Great way to look at it. Right now I'd say about 5 to 10% of my business comes from Business Buyers. My hope is to eventually have 80% of my business from the Fiverr Business side, but that's a long way off at the moment. I just don't think the Business side has gotten enough traction so far to generate enough business to give up work from regular Fiverr buyers. 26 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My most popular gig is not in the business category of Fiverr, and I cannot create a gig for it (not eligible?). I think that the more common gigs (writing, design) have a higher criterion to meet. 23 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 cartoon_avatar Posted November 1, 2022 Share Posted November 1, 2022 @strategist_ceo and @vickieito, You can join Fiverr Business from this link (If Fiverr Business is available in your country)- https://www.fiverr.com/business You can see the detailed process for it here-https://www.fiverr.com/support/articles/360010395297-Fiverr-Business-Creating-your-account?segment=business It is not available in my country. Probably, this is the reason that I didn't receive any invite or notification for it. 22 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Question
strategist_ceo
I just received a notification that tells me to list gigs exclusively on Fiverr Business. I can now see the placements of my gigs in "Fiverr" and "Fiverr Business."
Is it possible to manually add gigs on Fiverr Business?
