[[Guide] How to avoid bad buyers, and how to deal with them if you can't]

Indeed! I’m happy to say I never used the buyer requests myself, since it’s very rare for my niche to have any relevant posts there, anyway. But I’ve used it a couple of times as a buyer, and I never liked it. I actually never ended up being happy with what I got through requests, even the well written ones! So I stopped using them and I prefer to manually vet my buyers through search instead.

I don’t know if it’s common or not in my niche but I must say buyer request is really cancerous, I saw people looking for video editing pro work for 10€ with the famous: “if you’re not able to do this DON’T waste my time”, or “I’m looking for PRO ONLY” (budget: 5€)

It’s clearly another level than my 13 years old kid :rofl:

I love the number 1, I never dealt with it yet but I always saw them in buyer request descriptions :rofl:

[How to avoid frustration ?]

Review websites are telling people that they can “get rich quick” at freelance sites like Fiverr.

The truth is, that is incorrect.

Sure, you can make money here. Some can earn good full-time wages.

But if you ask any of them they will tell you it took months and years to get to that level of income on Fiverr.

That’s the reality of the situation.

Plus, there is a lot of competition at a site like this. It takes time to get noticed.

Just be patient. It’ll come.

It’s so funny cause they have listened to click bait youtube videos and think it’s true xD
