danieljeewan Posted November 21, 2012 Share Posted November 21, 2012 I have completed 151 GIG’s and I have 16 Cancellations which is 10% cancellation rate, I was wondering how the rest of the community was doing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rr1455 Posted November 21, 2012 Share Posted November 21, 2012 I have had about the same cancellation rate… Lots of it comes from miss communication.Roger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

danieljeewan Posted November 21, 2012 Author Share Posted November 21, 2012 Glad to know someone else has the same cancellation, although it would be nice to know about others, especially from some of the more experienced sellers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nrallstars Posted November 21, 2012 Share Posted November 21, 2012 Wait… “I have completed 151 GIG’s and I have 16 Cancellations” Thats 167 total gigs, then you would take 16/167 and get .095 then multiply that by 100 and you would get a 9.5% cancellation rate, so isn’t it only 9.5%?

mintyone Posted November 21, 2012 Share Posted November 21, 2012 2.8%A super clear gig video showing your order process and what the customer will be getting helps. Also make sure you outline these steps in your description. Even if the order is totally wrong, it’s likely you can provide the buyer with something they can use. If you’re not sure, even deliver the work in a message (without marking the work as delivered) so they have the chance to see that you provide quality work and will want to keep it.

mintyone Posted November 21, 2012 Share Posted November 21, 2012 Reply to @tn5rr2012: What are the main reasons why people cancel? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tn5rr2012 Posted November 21, 2012 Share Posted November 21, 2012 Usually I have had to request a cancellation from Customer Support because the buyer never responded. Most of my cancellations were at the begiinning of my gig life now I may get one or two a month for the reason I just stated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mintyone Posted November 23, 2012 Share Posted November 23, 2012 Reply to @tn5rr2012: Do you need to cancel when someone doesn’t respond? Every month I try to send a message to the people who have not yet responded to the gig requirements. Some people have responded and ended up going through with it MONTHS later. I’m not talking about the order going late–that’s always a bad idea. I mean when the buyer has not yet responded to the instructions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wheelthepeople Posted July 6, 2014 Share Posted July 6, 2014 I am at a 8% cancellation ratio due to impulsive buyers who just cannot seem to read the specifics and directions in my gigs before ordering.From now on, now that I know about this option, I WILL be preemptively initiating “mutual cancellations” for these attention span challenged buyers. I do realize eventually this will ding my ratios and I may just end up leaving Fiverr because of it. I have added the following statement to the very top part of the description of my gig:“IMPORTANT: TO AVOID CANCELLATION OF YOUR ORDER, PLEASE READ THE INSTRUCTIONS BELOW CAREFULLY BEFORE ORDERING!” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
