Reply to @willpower_hk: If that was the case, there would be no one writing erotic novels, doing erotic book covers, and other adult themes. Just because something is s****l/sensual doesn’t mean it’s pornographic.

Hey man, sounds awesome!

Can I add a little to this conversation?

You best gig is the line drawing… I offer that, but your’s is far better (if I’m being honest).

Before I say anymore, how long does it take?

[artworkking]

…and don’t worry! my Retro Poster gig is my main income so I’m only asking to help to along.

[fastcopywriter]

Reply to @wantedhero: Well, that is your choice. I used to write press releases and I gave it up because it was too time consuming. We all do Fiverr our own way, and you’re right, others will do smut and press releases.

[artworkking]

I’m wondering if I can offload my line drawing gig to you…

[wantedhero]

Reply to @artworkking: LOL! That’s not a fair question any more that , “How much does a line drawing cost?”

The answer is: DEPENDS…always.

What are the variables?

I grew up as a street artist when I was 15, drawing in malls and running from the cops in California because I didn’t have a license…and I could do a character drawing of a couple (both people) in under 4 min…then would run after them and try to get $4 each for the drawings.

Made $75-$150 a day back then (31 years ago)

I’m slower now, but long story short (TOO LATE) I’m pretty quick with cartoons.

Reply to @artworkking: (laughing) i don’t worry about anyone my friend. There’s enough to go around…and people come to me because they like what they see. It’s style, not just price.

You do computer, i do hand inking.

[wantedhero]

Reply to @artworkking: Yup, I checked you out—fantastic work! I’ll probably come to you later for some fun stuff too =)

I can’t do it all…

[wantedhero]

Reply to @artworkking: If you have too much, feel free to recommend me…but they might prefer your style =)

I do book illustrations mainly…but can draw most things (knock on wood).

[imadou]

you are a true HERO sir! keep on 😉

[Guest havardh]

Reply to @wantedhero Hello wantedhero, i really like your story and your achievements. I joined Fiverr 15th September that is last month. I have like 16 days in Fiverr. I have felt inspired by your story. I hope that i will write a successful story like yours in the coming months.

[julipalmer7]

Wow is all I can say!

[zeus777]

Great story! I know many people complain about Fiverr for whatever reason, ( I know I have! 😛 )
but it’s great to read stories like this. I do illustration stuff too, and it’s always great to see other
people’s work. No wonder you are doing so well, I hope you join the TRS group soon! 😃

[sanda5]

@wantedhero A very inspiring story… and I love your drawings… If you like writing as well
may be you can do a nice illustrated book for as well… I have a feeling you can do it too 🙂

Good Luck & keep up the good work…

Good Luck Brother Keep Working

Actually fiverr has no room for new sellers because it’s already saturated!

[jamshed_khan]

Reply to @wantedhero: 😉
but not even close to your earnings. You are getting $1862, etc… orders while I get max $50 orders. That’s difference.

[wantedhero]

Reply to @imadou: Awwww, thanks! You have some brilliant gigs, my friend!

[wantedhero]

Reply to @havardh: You focus on doing what you love and then have fun developing relationships with people and you’ll do amazing things.

I think what most people don’t realize is there are as many tastes as their are gigs. Not everyone will like what they find, so there’s ALWAYS enough to go around.

Remember that!

[wantedhero]

Reply to @zeus777: Wow. Your gigs are superb, zeus. Thanks for the kind words…though i don’t have a clue if I’m TRS material…no clue how that works–so I’ll just keep being me, as I’m happy with these amazing blessings as is.

[wantedhero]

Reply to @sanda5: Thanks so much. Yes, I love writing…but that’s my private life of fantasy publications, writing for teens and teaching worldbuilding =)

[wantedhero]

Reply to @hawkkseo: HAHAHA! Nawwww, there’s SO much room, as i said above, there’s no single gig that fits all tastes and needs.

When I first started looking to be a seller, i felt intimidated–not because I lacked skill, I was already a professional–but because there were so MANY great artists here. But I started, got my first couple gigs and it hasn’t stopped since.

I work as if I’m the ONLY artist on Fiverr and just provide the very best I can at every turn.

[wantedhero]

Reply to @jamshed_khan: Yeah, but that changes with PROJECTS. That’s what I’m starting to learn here. The single gigs give us exposure, momentum and the bread and butter…but then we find clients who have bigger needs.

Do you have a bigger/high end group of services you can offer…that the gigs you have can lead into?

If not, I suggest you map that out. It doesn’t have to be on the gig page–just tell people to contact you for a gig if they have special needs and have a conversation.

Just my 2 cents.

Then again, my friends tell me that when someone asks me, “penny for your thoughts” to sell.

(shrug)

[zdesignz]

Inspiring story to say the least. Just starting out as a designer on fiverr and I hope I can become as successful as you have.

[jamesbulls]

That’s cool, and congratulations to you. I really like your fourth point, about the trap of competing with other sellers. Fiverr is a stratified, freelance marketplace where water finds its own level. If your water is worth making waves, it’ll rise to the top.
