@vickispencer - You’re correct in what I was saying. But for clarity, I was saying that when I was only a buyer, I would appreciated seller reaching out to me and yes, it was mostly from sellers that I knew well. Now that I am a seller (and buyer), I will do the same. @misscrystal - Duly noted. but I think sellers should do what works for them within reason and the rules… That being said, I respectfully agree to disagree.

You’re welcome. Work works 😉

Never do this as it can result in an account warning or even an account ban. It is spamming. Customers reach back out to me “conversationally” all the time. I never report them as spam. I see it as great customer service. Over the five years I’ve been on fiverr as a BUYER exclusively, I can say that I appreciate when sellers “check on me” to see if I need anything.

i agree with sergio_yanes. If I am not looking for something new that I haven’t purchased before, I usually go back to sellers I’ve previously done business with. The old adage, “People do business with whom they know, like and trust.” That being said, reach back out to old customers and offer them something special or a “new gig.” I actually think someone said this above. Or, use a new way of promoting your gig among business professionals. E.g. find people on social media that may look like they need their photo retouched AND ASK THEM IF THEY’RE INTERESTED IN YOUR GIG before sending it to them. Or try the one that always gets me to but (this really works and I usually end up leaving a nice tip, but ALL buyers are not like this), find pictures that you can make better, do the work (make a 25 - 50%) improvement and let a prospective buyer know, if they buy your gig, you’ll 100% improve their image. Some may frown on this, but the Universe reward the bold (and buyers rewards sellers) that offer VALUE beyond what they’ve purchased.
