The most basic tools are three of my favorite. The first is a text editor like notepadd++. It is simple to use and it has an auto save feature that makes storing ideas, web research and other content very convenient. The second tool is a spreadsheet editor like ms excel. With it you can track projects and compare related information. The third software is the os file manager. File naming conventions and data management are essential to your sanity. So you don't have to rely on your memory or the search bar to find important files.

Have you researched, what is the average price of other gigs in you niche?

After the order was completed how did you deliver the first free revision? The additional work, was it posted in the client message inbox and not an order? Also, how would it work in your niche, to offer a revision request extra. For example, how can a client can purchase a gig at any time to make changes to there original order?

How many exposures to ChatGPT scripts does it take to identify them, correctly?

Did you voluntarily offer to verify your account or where you prompted to do it by the system?

Have you tried using a pdf editor?

Thanks for posting your interaction in detail. At first I suspected the buyer was a reseller? In my experience, resellers attempt to maximize their profits as the middleman, omit critical information and most importantly they rebound and enhance the criticism they receive from the true buyer, against you the seller. But in one post the buyer commented, “OUR company makes several videos every year.” Either way, reseller or not, they did not appear to be invested into providing clear, unmistakable instructions, right? In the future, what do you think about draft videos? Do you have the option of delivering an incomplete video, prior to final delivery, to allow the client to review and comment? Or has that feature been removed in the latest update?

Think about, how can you substantiate to CS, that you have a wife and she has a separate web development practice than your own? For example, do you design websites in different genres?

How did you manage to get CS to reply in person? And it appears that, Dante showed concern and expended effort looking into your gig ranking? Was he looking for a legitimate bug?

Thanks for posting your experience. Sorry that this, happened to you.

It’s fairly easy to refresh or spoof your IP when needed, right?

I’m glad you were compensated. If true, then it appears the buyer has not developed his finesse to a point were you would have lost out on compensation completely.

How competitive is your niche? Are there hundreds or thousands of other similar gigs?

Is the order still canceled? How did you get the “money back”?

Good work. How long has your client been ordering services on the platform or are they new to it?
