  1. So I have encountered quite an insufferable buyer. I won’t go too much into detail with that. The order has limited revisions. Whenever I’d deliver, the buyer won’t reject the delivery and request for a revision normally, but would send a message for the changes made. I was a bit skeptical as to why they wouldn’t just request for a revision. However, I would just redeliver 

    The buyer keeps on requesting for changes and this buyer would like constantly change their mind on what they want, they’d tell me to make a whole new different illustration (like 3 times) because they didn’t like the initial idea that they had. 
     

    However, the last delivery I let them know that the order has a limited number of revisions and we’ve gone beyond that, and anymore changes after that will be at a cost.

    ’Though the buyer hasn’t really been requesting for revisions. Does the buyer still have the right to use the revisions?
     

    Also, the order will be marked as autocomplete soon

  2. Hi, guys. I need some advice/tips on how you manage your orders to avoid being burn out. Ever since I levelled up, the orders have been a lot. Don’t get me wrong, I am happy that I am gaining a lot of traction. However, Fiverr is a part-time job for me because I am a full-time student. I’d appreciate some tips/advice that can help. 
    Thanks

  3. I won’t reply any more to this topic but SELLERS stop dismissing those who say the BR feature benefited them if it didn’t benefit you. It’s so infuriating, “no a seller this, a seller should do this, a seller…” who are you? The owner of Fiverr? You now speak for everyone? Or because you’re a TRS, because you’re a level 2? NO! There are over a thousand sellers in this platform and many who are successful and I doubt their success story is the same as yours. Stop dismissing other sellers if how they got orders did not fit your criteria of how a seller should get orders in this platform. BR should have never been on Fiverr in the first place if that’s the case. From the get go, you have had strong opinions about BR, yet you were not the sellers who were using this feature frequently. It doesn’t matter if one got their orders organically or whatever. The point is sellers were getting orders and satisfying buyers. There’s proof of BR working for buyers and sellers but you want dismiss that because it was pathetic to you. If a seller is complaining about briefs that’s their experience, and many sellers below level 2 have complained but you want to also dismiss that? “Fiverr is still improving the briefs feature”, it doesn’t matter. If sellers were not complaining about briefs, what would be there to improve. Not every seller will be successful that’s a fact but it’s also a fact that each seller in this platform will never have the same experience with every other seller. They will have their own success story and it does not have to fit your criteria of what being successful is on Fiverr. 
    Stop seeing things in your privilege point of you. Very annoying. Argue with yourself if you want to argue. Just do not dismiss seller complaints and be more understanding.

    Considering how many sellers and buyers didn't like buyer requests, you are definitely not going to get a like and upvote from every seller and buyer. Because, believe it or not, not everyone wants BRs b

    No harm in proving that theory.

    I think fiverr should launch a seller club for new seller. I don't know if it exist or not. But sharing my thought. That seller can share their daily design there and buyer can visit these page also and can choose their seller from there too.

    That’s sounds like a good idea.

    From what I’ve noticed, it’s like some sellers who’ve been here for a while do not want new sellers to have the “easy” route.

    For clarity, it’s my opinion. I will not argue. You’ll argue alone

    A club for new sellers will not make new sellers successful. Change your mindset. Stop considering yourself to be a victim, and make yourself a winner.

    There’s nothing wrong with that idea. If it is not successful, Fiverr can remove it the way the removed BR.

    Buyer requests never really accomplished this - it never created matches.

    Sorry, but I 100% disagree with this. I have been a buyer using BR and I’ve also gotten orders from using BR.

    The idea of the Get Brief feature is to allow Fiverr's algorithm to match the buyer to a few high-quality sellers with good delivery quality, appearance quality, and seller statistics, as well as services, prices, and availability that match what the buyer is looking for.

    This exactly disadvantages new sellers

    Okay, and what was the purpose of BR?

    However, this is what Fiverr is moving away from. Fiverr discontinued buyer requests because it doesn't fit their business model of being a matching service

    If this is the reason, then BR should have been removed entirely and not replaced with a supposedly better matching service, Briefs. A seller still has to offer/bid when they are matched with a buyer. So I don’t see how briefs fit their business model from that logic.

    If a seller wants to bid and make offers, Fiverr might not be the best platform to work on. There are plenty of other places where sellers can bid for jobs.

    Also, I have noticed whenever this topic comes up about Fiverr not being a bidding market place. BR was never a main feature on Fiverr, but it was a feature to help buyers who couldn’t find what they were looking for when searching for gigs. Other platforms also have the searching gig -whatever it’s called - but it isn’t their main feature.

    There are a ton of resources to help newer sellers grow their businesses and the matching system is what makes Fiverr unique from other platforms. I prefer this method because I don't like bidding on projects. It's nice to have buyers come to me.

    That’s good for you, but that doesn’t mean what worked for you will work for others. I believe being a Fiverr seller is a personal experience. New sellers liked the buyers request feature and got orders from there. If sellers want to “bid” on a project, that is okay. If they’d like buyers come to them, that is okay too. As long sellers are getting orders and they are satisfying their customers

  9. I’ve been reading through similar threads, and I felt like adding my opinion. In my opinion, I don’t think those who were not affected by the removal of BR and never really took orders from BR should have a say honestly. Some sellers did rely both on organic orders and BR. And saying that one cannot be a great seller if they rely on BR is a really pathetic take. Every seller is different and their journey to succeed will be different and I don’t think each seller should get to the top the same way others did.  If buyers requests really helped others, then that’s great. If it didn’t work for you and you didn’t need it, then okay. I benefitted a lot from BR that I would make a ridiculous amount every week, and sending offers everyday is quite hard work if you ask me. And it helped a lot because I was a part time seller unlike others. It’s unfortunate the complete removed buyers request, I thought they would modify it in a way to make it better for the seller and buyer. 
     

    I’ve said my opinion, and I’ll continue replying with my opinion and I won’t care about yours.
