Harnessing the Power of Our New Consultation Features


Kesha

Recommended Posts

Have a project idea but feeling a bit lost on the necessary steps to achieve the results you desire? Or perhaps you know exactly what needs to be done but you’re having trouble pinpointing the right seller? For situations like these, engaging in one of our new consultation services could be the right solution. 

If you’re looking for a consultation for your next project you can either explore the new consultation vertical or make use of the new “consult with a specialist” feature. The consultation vertical is filled with industry experts who can provide strategic direction based on your goals to ensure you get the results you are looking for. 

Alternatively, you can also choose to use the new "consult with a specialist" feature. This new feature allows you to purchase a one-time, one-on-one video consultation with sellers before committing to their full services. Here’s why this feature is a game-changer:

  • Hire with Confidence- In a sea of talented freelancers, finding the right fit can be daunting. Booking a consultation lets you vet your prospects and ask crucial questions to ensure they're the perfect match for your job.
  • Expert Advice on Next Steps- Consultation calls open the door to tapping into the expertise of sellers. Gain insights, guidance, and advice on what's possible and the steps required to get there.
  • Build a Professional Relationship- Doing business is far more reassuring when it's with someone you know. A pre-service consultation not only ensures the seller understands your product goals but also makes the entire experience smoother and more effective.

To book a consultation, simply look for a seller with the “book a consultation” option on their profile or Gig page. Decide how long you would like the consultation to run then schedule the call based on the seller's availability. All meetings will be held on Zoom and can be accessed either from your email or your order page. Post-call, you'll receive written notes from the seller, empowering you to confidently decide whether to proceed with their service

Bringing your project to life may demand hard work and strategic moves, but you don't have to navigate this journey alone. With our new consultation category and the option to connect with freelancers before committing, you can gain expert guidance from industry experts who can help you reach your goals.

I had this activated, and deactivated it because I can't have request to order on it. 

Given the way the new review system works, and the fact that we are reviewed for consultations, I advise everyone to not offer consultations. What if the buyer doesn't like what I have to say? What if they find my price doesn't match their needs, or that I don't offer what they want (and feel like their consultation expense was "wasted")? It's highly likely they'll leave a less than stellar review on the consultation, dropping down my ratings, and contributing negatively to my success score.

Too risky.

I strongly feel that there should be an option, so that I can share my consultation link to the potential buyers. I raised this point couple of weeks before too:
