Fiverr is an on-demand marketplace! Fiverr is an on-demand marketplace!! Fiverr is an on-demand marketplace!!! It's the same song I keep seeing in this forum, yet Fiverr encourage sellers to send custom offers, subscriptions & create milestones for some complex projects. Isn't it in the communication stage (inbox) that you send custom offers? I've seen pro sellers, too many TRS, & Rising Stars with this 'innocent & easy to digest' message in their descriptions (all with orders in queue), yet they still keep their badges. If fiverr don't frown at this, why should you? You can't just go around labeling sellers inexperienced or unprofessional simply because an argument doesn't fit your narrative. This is only your opinion, not the opinion of actual buyers ready to hire a seller. Not all gigs require this message, but some do. Agree or Disagree... THIS IS THE WAY!

I will never be comfortable placing an order on fiverr without messaging the seller first. I'm a seller too, but I've purchased quite a few services here too. I've received discounts from sellers, received my order faster than the duration set on their gig page and enjoyed many other benefits just by communicating with the seller first. Not all gigs require you to message the seller first, but some others do. Services on fiverr are not all the same.

It also depends on your seller level & selected gig category. If there's more buyers demand in that category, you will receive more BR.

Help! Just about to complete Assassin's Creed: Odyssey... The 3rd time! Next: Far Cry6 I love interactive games with good story & side quests where the actual ending is determined by your past decisions. You can easily replay the game, change your decisions and it will feel new.

Valid point! Also, you can contact CS for additional support. If you have a valid reason to cancel the order, they may do it in a way that it won't affect your seller metrics.

That was a bold step. Starting again from scratch is no joke. I hope you didn't lose all your previous repeat buyers.

This is a good suggestion. A lot of us picked random and weird usernames when we joined fiverr. Funny, I picked my username after a 'used to be' popular tech blog that i can no longer find on Google search result. It had 'giz' in it's name and my funny self thought it would be a good idea to use it as a prefix for my username. Many years later, It just didn't feel 'brandable' anymore. If fiverr could come up with a way to announce the changes to our previous buyers to avoid any confusion, this could work. You have no idea how bad I want to change my username. I wish there was a bold warning on the sign up page that states, "If you mess up with your username, you're stuck forever!"

This... so accurate. Do you also remember when an order 'that gets canceled for late delivery' used to be automatic 1star Review? Thanks for this well detailed post. I know I'm guilty of some of these points but will definitely do better!

Congratulations on your achievement! Next time i see a YouTube video talking about how fiverr is a cheap marketplace where 'everything' cost $5, I'll just direct them to this page. Your story is enough inspiration.

Love your hair!

Personally, I've never had any reason to use this feature so I can't confirm how it works exactly. But if you have concerns about using this feature maybe you should consider extending your order delivery duration instead. This works for me whenever I need more time for myself while still doing the job I love. Working freelance shouldn't feel like a 9-5 job everyday. You should be able to have time for your family and daughter and not feel burnt. I hope you find what works for you, good luck!
