Hi! This is my first post here ever lol. I joined fiverr about 9 days ago and started my 1st video editing gig.

 So far, I have already uploaded thumbnails as well as a video sample for my gig. My problem now though is trying to get my first sale. I can see that buyers’ requests have been removed from the platform almost about a year ago. Instead we have buyers’ briefs, which honestly sucks for us new sellers because we can’t match with a buyer if we don’t have any orders, and vice versa.

 I really wish I started out earlier before they decided to remove the buyers’ requests option. I think I would’ve been spending a lot of my time doing those. Now I feel like I hit a wall 😕 I tried tweaking my title, tags, and prices numerous times, yet I’ve only received about 20+ impressions since I started, which is kinda frustrating.

 I’m really quite new to all of this, and I’m worried I’ll never be able to make my first sale at this rate. Any tips, advice or feedback is appreciated. Thanks! 

Tips/advice for making my first few sales as a new seller in 2023?
