Support & Troubleshooting

As a seller, I find myself spending an excessive amount of time explaining to my clients how they can add extras and upgrade their orders. The list containing these options is incredibly hidden within the sales pipeline. Seriously, there's just a "Show more Extras" link? I have never come across a sales pipeline where upsell items are concealed from the buyer's view. It's comparable to walking into a store with empty shelves and instead finding a note saying, "Please call the manager to see what you can buy." Clearly, this aspect was not well thought out. 

When clients place an order, most of them are completely unaware that they can enhance their orders with extras (upsells). Consequently, I often have to manually explain to each client: 

- That there is an availability of extras for their order.
 - Which ones are necessary.
 - How to add the extras to their order. 

This situation is frustrating for both buyers and sellers. 

Moreover, the inability to include images with upgrade options is highly disappointing. Additionally, the character count for optional item descriptions is severely limited. While this might suffice for smaller gigs, it is inadequate for large web projects. Consequently, I find myself repeatedly explaining each optional item, over and over again. Why? 

I kindly request that you make upsell items visible, just as they are in any proper sales funnel on other platforms. If I can add a proper image and description then I dont have to re-explain optional items continuosly. 

It may be beneficial to send the Fiverr UI/UX team to a workshop that focuses on implementing best practices for sales funnels and emphasizes how UI/UX experience can either hinder or drive deal velocity and upsells. 

Both buyers and sellers are wasting valuable time. Many upsells opportunities go unfullfilled, because order options are hidden from view or there is not enough space or attractive real estate in the UI to explain them properly. As a result, Fiverr and its sellers are losing revenues. It's a classic lose-lose situation.
