[Cannot find the option to offer stock media in an ongoing order.]

Yes, absolutely.

So that means we cannot add a stock media in the order once the offer was accepted? It doesn't make a lot of sense to still have the stock media browser in the order page for such orders then.

[Cannot find the option to offer stock media in an ongoing order.]

Hello. I have started an order with a client.

During the order, we realize we need music tracks too, which was not included in the custom offer. But I cannot find the option to offer the license. On the stock media section, it asks me to first offer the service as an extra. But in the 'Extras' section, I cannot find the stock media. 

Is it that the media cannot be offered without marking it in the original custom offer? Sorry if this was a basic question, but this is the first time I am using this feature.

Thank you!

Why would I sell a high quality service cheaply just because it takes longer?

You can think of it as, "filler" projects. Like when a project is not urgent to the client, it would be fine if a professional doesn't have to take out time out of their busy higher paying schedule to do it. They can get on it whenever they find it convenient, or during low sales. 

Think of extra fast deliveries. If faster deliveries cost more than usual, then on its opposite, super slow ones can be a little bit cheaper.

it is illustrative for people with little or no business background to get their head around.

Yes, this seems the correct argument for the theory.

they want an experienced professional to do their job in the next 2 hours for $5

Well said. If an experienced professional could do that job in in 2 hours, they would be working with clients paying like ten times for that, by now. 

[Where did my saved draft delivery go?]

I wonder if you click on “Deliver Work” again it would bring up the draft?

I tried it but it didn’t work. Asked me to fill all details.

For this time, it’s not that hard to rewrite all of that. But some day someone might get in trouble in some way because of this.

[Where did my saved draft delivery go?]

Few hours ago, I typed a delivery message and uploaded the necessary files to the delivery box. But I decided to deliver it later so saved it as a draft.
Now I can’t find the option to use any draft. I searched the forum but couldn’t find any help.
Thank you.

[Why don't I get order?]

You are working in a very crowded category. If I search ‘wordpress’, there are over 90000 gigs. So it can be difficult to make sales in a category which has so much of competition.
It can take a while to start constant sales, but in the meanwhile, you can learn any new skill and make gigs for it too.
Thank you.

[How can you getting more order]

All you are doing is parroting what others write here daily.

When you say “stay online”, does that mean 24/7 like others have said - staying online is not the key here to get orders. Offering something people need and being good at it is.

Sharing your Gigs on social media is also a common thing people just say over and over - does this mean spam FB groups, LinkedIn and Twitter? Who are you sharing your Gig to on social media? If you are just spamming your link thinking that is the key to get orders, again, you are sadly mistaken. If anything, your posting your link just looks unprofessional and gets annoying showing up in someone’s feed daily.

You are right. As I have spent more and more time on fiverr, I have realized that most of the helps and tips I read as a newcomer were just same misconceptions repeated over and over.

Not that I am an experienced seller yet, but in 2 months I have understood that staying online is only beneficial if you’re sending offers to buyer requests.

I have received messages from around 8 different people till now. And none of them messaged me when I was online. If someone want quality work, they’ll look for good proof, and not who’s online.

Same goes for sharing links on social media. If you are not sharing your link to your potential buyers or at least some relevant places, then your efforts will completely fail. Sharing links only work if it’s audience can be your buyer. If you are just sending them to your friends and family then, there will be no results.

Thank you.
