  1. True. But what I expect and admire only their marketing skills. The way they grab out buyers from somewhere (not sure from where) and connect us. Rest, probably its different working as freelancer than general employment. and it will be early for me to comment on webinar, as i never tried before.
  2. Strange. Actually it is my first time with their webinar, so wanted to give a try. As those guys built fiverr, so i was expecting something special from them (not gpt based common answers). yes i did
  3. I'm curious to know what will happen inside. Are topics being wrote somewhere ?
  4. Recently I had a buyer who posted brief. I applied, but they already selected someone else. After 2 weeks, he came back (in tired mood) saying "its unbelievable guys with great ratings unable to do my job..." He worked with me and was happier with end result. So I learned Fiverr is MATCHing buyer with wrong sellers. Good statistics are necessary, but a match is compulsory. I mean suppose a guy working on apple, may not be good choice for orange always. Buyer don't have that blood to vet 50-100 sellers. Fiverr should find it for them. (NEO looks good start, but non-functional) or they will find another platform probably.
  5. If need official answer, contact CS. Say like "Is it allowed to showcase my projects which were completed outside of Fiverr on Portfolio section ?"
  6. I will be interested in knowing outcomes of CS conservation. But in my case, it never helped when buyer is opponent. I try my best to do whatever mutually possible. Because its quite harder to prove someone wrong, specially to CS. Its like battle. So I let them play their day, once its complete, I won't continue with them further. Even if CS forcefully completes order, I know what you will expect in review.
  7. https://help.fiverr.com/hc/en-us/articles/4413134063633-Using-My-Portfolio Per documentation, I don't find anywhere like "must use fiverr projects only" There are some freelancers, having projects feature but with 0 order/review Then why Fiverr gave them that option, if it was must to have Fiverr project ? Probably its for showcasing work experience (doesn't need to be fiverr always)
  8. He probably looks frustrated while seeing their 10min being wasted. 😅 Shouldn't you supposed to set availability on profile ? So new client's can't message.
  9. private ratings are sensitive and unstable because few buyers choose to fill surveys Suppose if we have total 10 orders 6 buyers write public reviews and 2 out of them also write private review What should be result ? Probably very aggressive, it may rank or dump our gigs in few days I suggest recommending happy buyers to write private feedback That's workaround for now unfortunately
  10. Private rating is new core of current score Proof: You have 5/5 positive public ratings, still 4/10 score
  11. Those doesn't look real. Probably bot web scrapers.
  12. I guess public reviews have no impact on score (The way they shown client satisfaction and other fields etc) They might be including private reviews or AI learning from order/inbox page (which we won't going to be sure unless they document it properly)
  13. The one I know have habit of discount, I charge them extra {X}% even more. Such that, even if they ask for discount, it would reduce to exactly what i want it to be. lol Some are cheap, not budget wise, but support and demand wise within order... So they need to be charged more as well. Oh another famous joke at this moment: "this is longterm work" 😅
  14. You already a leveled seller (like you mentioned Level 2). You should have built-in ZOOM video/voice call option button like @williambryan392 mentioned (if your selling average is $50+ on analytics page)
  15. In my case, I never attempted nor want to. I believe family, relatives, friends and business should be treated differently. Friendly behavior is necessary, but being a friend ? I don't think so. They need service, and we need income. When need is over, both say goodbye. Simple! I think in business we need to think about profit. When old relation becomes non-profitable compared to new ones, we simply dump it. Because we are here to grow, not to carry out friendships even when they are burden. (Just a thought, I'm open to hear disagreements.)
  16. @Kesha Do you mean "Success Score" will be based on previous 2 years ratings ? Also will this score includes both private and public ratings ? Between how this score is being calculated ? Is it based on no. of stars ? or AI learning from order/chat conservations ? or AI learning based on text review ?
  17. Normally Fiverr is meant for selling CUSTOM services It may not be good choice for selling ready made and resell-able assets/templates For selling softwares, maybe check codecanyon,sellix etc (just a hint, you can research further)
  18. Level do impacts impressions and ranking Specially new rating system offer more features according to level I suggest lowering rate, something is better than nothing by new orders, you can correct statistics. Specially on time delivery. I usually request time extension before delivering (If buyer agrees, fiverr won't have issue either. Thus on-time delivery won't impact)
  19. Normally clients do ask for samples. But not free work, probably its red flag. They are scammers, not buyer.
  20. I added only 2 sections(describe and attachment), even which are optional Its because I work 100% on CUSTOM offers, which are discussed within inbox FAQs are at very bottom side of page So I fear few would read it If buyers don't read FAQ, may be add bunch of FAQs as compulsory multi choice options like - "yes I got it" - "i don't understand" But that may force them to read though 😂
  21. I appreciate that fiverr improved transparency by showing hidden metrics/feedback But If I'm correct, now it includes whole career as well within score ? If so, what will happen to guys having thousands of reviews ? and several years of seniority ? and how will they correct their mistakes done years ago ?
  22. I guess limit is due to storage cost them money They doesn't seem to have interest in investing on forum (which doesn't generate profit)
