[How to get my first gig?]

Thank you so much for your help everyone! 🙂 Hopefully I will get my first gig soon!

[How to get my first gig?]

Hello! I've been on Fivver for about a week now but not yet got my first gig. I have a lot of enquiries which are asking me to contact them by Telegram (is it normal to get a lot of these messages? I don't contact them!).

Is there any hints and tips to get your first gig?

 

Thanks!

[Am I being scammed?]

Thank you so much for you responses! I thought it didn't feel right - I will definitely avoid 🙂

[Am I being scammed?]

Hello!

I have recently signed up to Fiverr and in one of my gigs I am offering data Entry Services. I have been contacted by some companies who are requesting my convert picture text into Word which is something I am able to support with, however; they are requesting a deposit before I start work on their projects. This really doesn't feel right to me and quite frankly sounds a bit "scammy". Although as I've said I am very new to freelancing so I was wanting to know if this is normal?

 

Thanks!
