Improvement in my gig?

[Guest anshulbansal]

Hi all! I am a new member on Fiverr. Recently I was working on Freelancer. Fiverr is good marketplace but I haven’t get any one, at least one order from any buyer. I created my gig almost two weeks before. I also promoted my gig but didn’t get any order. Then I found this category of forum. And I posted this post. And I requesting you all to help me to improve my post. This is my gig: #fiverr

Hello, you are in a VERY competitive category. I would suggest that you offer a something more with your gig, to encourage people to try your service.
Without reviews, it is difficult to get orders and without orders you wont have reviews!
This means you have to make your offer so good that someone will take a chance on using you. Think about it, if you see one guy with 50 reviews and another with 0 reviews, offering the same service, you will definitely choose the one with 50 reviews.
Perhaps offer 2 or 3 banners per order, just to get started.
Good Luck!

I can’t serve 2 or 3 banners per order but I can do one thing that I can include gig extras in main service like including psd, free mockups, and so on. Is it good to include gig extras in main service?

Im not familiar with what you are offering but you need to offer something more than your experienced competitors to get started. Check other banner makers gigs, see what they offer, can you do better or cheaper or more.
What is the issue with 2 or 3 banners per order? Is it too much work?

[Guest anshulbansal]

Yes it’s too much work for just $5.

You can offer free express service.

Which express service?

Although I think the original poster has already deleted or had the account removed from Fiverr, the suggestion by eoinfinnegan is a good one. They were not saying to do the extra work always, just until the seller gets a few reviews under their belt.

As also mentioned, some categories are very competitive and it’s not uncommon for a long period to go by until you get the first order. Always check the gig stats and adjust/fine tune them accordingly, to improve traffic.

I totally agree with this. Unless it’s impossible, the concept of “too much work” has to go by the wayside at first. On new gigs I might be lucky to make $2 in an hour. Sometimes less. Fiverr is work, not magic. @rudevectors is offering good coaching to any new seller.
