Completed my 8 years on Fiverr!

Hello Folks! 

I'm thrilled to disclose my time period on this amazing platform, 8 years !!! I first joined Fiverr in early 2016 and had no clue/idea about how this works, we were just college friends, sitting in a cafe,  exploring opportunities to make our lives better, and we came across this platform. Did some initial research whatever we could at that time with very limited resources and took a leap of faith and joined as a seller. 

I had no concept of TOS at that time and what services to offer, so I sat down and narrowed down what I can do better and confidently. I was good at artwork and sketches, so I published my not-so-very-good gig related to artwork and illustrations. I used to draw on paper and canvases with different mediums so I had no idea how that will work on fiverr. I started exploring the buyer requests and sent a few, and to my surprise, I was approached by a wonderful lady ( still my buyer) who required some work for her kids. That's where I started my fiverr journey on the very first day of joining the platform and it has been wonderful since. 

I have seen ups and downs of fiverr, cracked the algorithm and internals ( I believe), and upgraded my skills from paper to digital, and whatnot. A lot has happened since my first sale. I made myself financially independent and never worked in any firm or job. 

Fiverr has changed a lot in all these days but I found it seller-oriented every time. Some rules may look harsh but actually, they benefitted me eventually. I have seen the weirdest buyer to the humblest one. Worked with almost every category of buyers in this time period but still I think I need a lot to learn and grow. I never became TRS, which everyone here struggles to and have Thousands of happy clients. Few months have been really tough here but that will pass too. 

This was a basic insight and journey here of the last 8 years. 

Share your journey too.
