Hey Everyone, 
Just completed my 100 Days Journey on Fiverr so I thought let's celebrate it with a Community Post.
So Before Fiverr I was taking client directly from Outside but one of my Clients Suggested my Fiverr so I hop onto it (I already knew about Fiverr but I was not on the Platform because sometimes you just need a little push to Kick things off).

Started Selling on Fiverr around June 2023. Got the First order within a Week from the Same Client that suggested me Fiverr, so It was kinda easy start for me and that order also boosted my visibility on Fiverr as well. About a Week later got my First Order from a Fiverr Client, was excited above the Sky.

Delivered the First Order and Buyer was really happy with the First Delivery. Completed the Order with a little tip and 5 Star Review. 

In June End week, I got invited to Promote my Gigs. Fiverr gives $10 Promotion Funds to Promote your Gigs in the Starting and let me tell you. Everyone should use it.
Till now I have made about $250 with the Promoted Gigs Orders and Spend only $40 ($30 mine + $10 Fiverr Credit). It gives me about 5-6 orders per month so not too bad.

Fast Forward Aug 15, Evolution Time of Fiverr- Got Promoted to Level 1. Again I was excited above the sky but Level One gave me one downside. I sudden Feel a drop in me in my impressions, Searched online about it and found many sellers go through this same phase, I got a little despair  but I thought it is a great time to reconsider my Gig.
I updated my Gig images, Video and a few more things. Made a simple way to show Samples and Styles to Clients, Moreover made other gig as well.

The main factor that helped me get out of the low ranking is Returning Buyers, I got around 4-5 Orders in the Period of 15 Days and all of them were from Previous Clients so Returning Buyers are important but I am not saying to keep you a 100 Score of Repeat Business (My Score is around 90) or Just focus on Spamming Clients to Get more work done. My Point is Provide great Service so they will value you and when they come back to you, greet them and Work for them just like New Clients. Because Sometimes when you have 2 Orders in Queue and a Previous Buyer message's you regarding you a new work, there is a huge change that you will try to focus on his work in last after Completing the Orders from New Clients. Treat them as you treat new Buyers, Reply to their queries, Don't try to avoid questions saying "We will do it like last time" or "I will manage it like last time". This is a New project so it has to be unique.
As you can see More than 50% of My Earnings are from Repeat Buyers and that's quite an achievement for me.

Before I close this topic, Let me add one more thing - I was not Online 24/7.


So this was my Short Journey of 100 Days on Fiverr. Completed 100 Orders with all 5 Stars (Recent Order No. 102 gave me 4.3, It is good but "meh"), All Orders were on Time.

I cancelled 2 Orders and You should also. Determining Which Order is not for you is a big part. One of the Orders I cancelled was a $5 Basic pack that comes with Basic Effects, Buyer placed the Order and Gave me instructions. The Total hours of work was around 4-5 (That's my Premium Package). I asked Buyer to Change the Effects Style or Increase the Budget but he was not really in mood of Resolution so We want ahead with cancellation. Second Order was kinda Same, Buyer was not Sure what he wanted and just Placed an order anyway.
It is always good to Cancel or Resolve issues in an Order rather than stressing over it for days.

I have all the requirements completed for my Level 2 just 20 Days Left, So on Oct 15 I might get the Level 2 Badge as well.

Thank you 🙂

Congratulations , I am a new seller with 0 orders in 3 months but I mostly see people posting about their struggles on fiverr, but as your story suggests many are also busy making money and do not have time I guess to post on fiverr, you took the time out and posted about it which is very nice of you, hope to see more of your milestones soon ...

Thank you so much for Appreciation Sir. But I don't slightly agree on this point of Yours about "Busy Making Money". Your End Goal should not be always money, If you focus on Experience and Improving Skills then money will automatically come along the way. 

With 100 orders I don't only got the Payment but also I got about 100 new Experience and If I get something Unique/Challenging in every 5th order then I almost learned 20 New Things from these Order. That's what I have achieved with these Order.

And About your "Don't have time to Post", I agree with this point but not 100% Percent. Usually the Experience Posts area bit lengthy as you can see my post as well and they require some Data/Advice as well, because there is no use of a post if that doesn't provide any value to reader. Many people are not from Writing Field and often hesitate that they might not be able to express wrong.  Some people  pull themselves back due to length and other sue to Writing capabilities. I am not a writer myself or a Expert Language Master but I like writing and I am starting to writer more and more as much I can, So I just find opportunities when I can just write anything.


Lastly, There are many Articles on Forum including Positive and Negative. You will find many articles just about the Struggle of Seller and Complaints about not getting order after being online 24/7. I will suggest you to cut yourself away from those, just focus on What you have in mind and Move ahead with that goal. One Day you will be sharing your own Story Here and Maybe Bigger than mine and anyone else's.

Here is a Forum Post that I find an amazing read for New Sellers (I got the Idea about my Post from this Article as well)


Thank you 🙂

It clearly shows that staying online all the time is useless

Yes, That's really crucial. Every 3rd post on Forum is about Tips on Getting Orders and there are many people just suggesting new Sellers to be online 24/7 to get orders.

That's myth and it needs to be stopped.
