matching your logo designs effectively with the right industry-specific pick is essential for you to get more exposure for your work and attract the right clients. With Fiverr Logo Maker, you have the option of adding unlimited industry-specific options to your work, but just like too much of anything good, adding too many options that aren't strategically chosen can be counter-productive. So how do you find the happy medium and get the most impact for your choosing efforts? Our must-read article on industry selecting says it all, but here are the cliff notes: The (Not So) Secret Formula to Success with Industry selecting is... The more specific your industry picks are, the higher your logo will rank in that category. It's really that simple. Industry selections in our logo generator are divided into Head Industries, Sub-Industries, and even more specific micro-industries. The key is to be as specific as possible without going overboard – remember, you want your work to be easily found by potential clients who are looking for a logo design just like yours, not lost in a sea of too many options. Using a wide array of Head Industries on one design is not going to be as effective as using a well-suited Sub-Industries or micro-industries. Adding too many industry picks to your design can actually hinder your design's ranking, so focusing on the industry in which your logo has the highest chances of shining is your best way to stand out in a specific category. Random Industry picks will Give You Random Results Would you rather be on the first page of results in a specific industry, or on the 100th page of a more general collection of designs? It's a no brainer. By matching your logo with specific Head Industries, Sub-Industries, and micro-industries that are perfectly suited to your design, you are increasing the chances that potential clients looking for logo designs in those industries will find your work. Industry choosing is an opportunity to tell the algorithm exactly which buyers will be most likely to purchase your design. Going with too many different industries will water down your work, and make it difficult for the algorithm to place you in front of the right clients. Remember, the algorithm is advanced but it's not mind-reading – it relies on the data you provide about your design to determine where it should appear in search results. The Best Industry picks are Relevant and Specific It's the small fish in a big pond vs. big fish in a small pond scenario. Hint: You want to be the big fish 😉 Here is how you can strategically target relevant industries when adding industry picks to your logo designs: Stay Relevant: Aim for the most specific industry that your design is applicable to. Get down to the nitty gritty: Narrow it down to the micro-industry level, if you can. Know when to make the cut: Eliminate the random industry picks that don't make sense: If it isn't relevant or specific, don't add it. Get into your target buyer's mind: Look at your logo from a buyer's perspective. If you were looking for a logo for a real estate company, the chances of you selecting the motorbike-themed logo on page 100 is pretty slim. Rather, you're more likely to select one of the first relevant logos that come up in your search. Choosing RELEVANT and SPECIFIC industry pick can mean the difference between getting found first and being lost in the noise. With a little thought and strategic planning, you can tell the algorithm exactly which buyers you're looking for, ensuring that your logo designs are being seen by the right people, in the right industries, at the right time. Below are some examples of logo designs that we've optimized for maximum search results. Green industries are the industries we've added to maximize results Red industries are the relevant, yet less relevant than others, industries we've removed to ensure relevancy and specificity. Remember- It's not about right or wrong, just pick your preferred top areas. You can always come back and change it according to the logo performance. Our recommendation is to stick with four or five of the most relevant options. Our industry picks- Renovation Services, Architecture, Interior Design, Commercial Real Estate, Industrial Real Estate, Property Management, Residential Real Estate, Urban Areas Example for possible tags- house Our industry picks- Athletics, Fitness Club/Gym/Center, Dancing school, Sports Fan Club, Sports Instruction/Coaching, Sports Team/Club, Cheerleading Example for possible tags- tiger , pompoms, shield Our industry picks- Catering, Food & Beverage Blog/Channel, Burger, Pizzeria, Seafood Restaurant, Mexican Food, Italian Food, Steakhouse & Grill, Mediterranean Food, Fast Food, Bars Example for possible tags-beer, alcohol, grill, bbq Our industry picks- Hair Care, Beauty & Cosmetics Blog/Channel, Beauty & Cosmetics Products, Barber Shops Example for possible tags- clippers, trimmer Our industry picks- Agriculture Blog/Channel, Crops Farming, Landscape Design, Gardening Services Agricultural Consulting, Agriculture Blog/Channel, Agriculture Company, Green Economy, Cleaning Services Example for possible tags- grass, lawn, mower Our industry picks- Cafes & Coffee Shops, Health & Wellness, Lifestyle, Bakeries & Baked Goods Stores, Bars Example for possible tags- coffee, beans All logo designs by mijalzagier Read our article on industry tagging for an in-depth explanation on how to make the most of your industry tags for enhanced visibility and increased revenue on Fiverr Logo Maker.

Ever had a buyer send you a message, asking for a LARGE discount - simply because they've got "more work for you in the future". This might sound great, but there's no guarantee they're place multiple orders with you. Even with the subscription offering on Fiverr - they can back out at any time. I once heard a great tip, so feel free to use this if someone offers this to you: Respond with: "Sure, I can do discounted pricing for repeated orders. The first order will be my standard rate - but the second and third orders will be 5% and 10% discount respectively, and 10% thereafter". This way - you're offering a discount for repeat orders, but not risking the client placing one order and ghosting you!

I have 7 gigs active on Fiverr. I'm also a level 1 seller. How to increase my success score. Please share your real experience.

As a new Seller on Fiverr, the idea of having a full inbox and a steady influx of orders is very exciting! However, the reality can quickly get overwhelming. Once your gigs start to gain some attention, you will notice a significant increase in business. You must learn how to manage Buyer demand and your personal availability, so you can give each order the necessary attention. Otherwise, you risk a drop in Buyer satisfaction, order cancellations, late deliveries, and negative reviews - all of which impact your business. Learning to manage your workload will also help you achieve a healthy work-life balance. Whether your freelance business is your main source of income or a side hustle, taking on too many orders at once can cause you to overwork yourself. Your mental health and well-being are critical to your personal and professional success. Managing Incoming Orders Although Fiverr Buyers can head to your Gig page and place an order without warning, there are still ways to manage incoming orders: 1. Extend turnaround times Offering quick turnaround times is a great way to increase the value of your services. However, if you are struggling to deliver on time, you may submit work that is not up to your standards. Go into your Gig settings and extend each timer by one day to better set expectations and give yourself a time buffer. You can always change it back once you learn to work faster and more efficiently. 2. Communicate honestly When communicating with prospective Buyers, be upfront and honest about your current workload. Let them know that you are very interested in working together and that you can deliver as soon as [X date]. It can be tempting to make exceptions for Buyers who are willing to pay more for extra-fast delivery, but it’s important to prioritize your mental health and orders that have already begun. It’s okay to let Buyers know that you are unable to fulfill their request right now and would be happy to help them out in the future. 3. Request an extension If a Buyer places an order before you have a chance to discuss your availability, you may request to extend the delivery date. When doing so, be sure to communicate that you value their business and want to give their order the attention it deserves. Most often, Buyers will appreciate the fact that you know your limits and will take the time you need to deliver a high-quality product. Managing Availability If the volume of orders is too high, and you’ve already followed the steps above to manage your workload, adjust your availability. Here are tips for taking advantage of the Set Availability feature: 1. Use it to catch up on orders If you need to take a break from answering new messages and receiving new orders, you can essentially pause your profile by setting yourself as Unavailable. If you have the capacity, you can choose to still accept messages from new Buyers and let them know that you aren’t accepting new orders at the moment, but you would be happy to get an order going with an extended delivery time. 2. Take some personal time It’s necessary to take time for yourself, your family, and other important things in your life! When you need to focus on things unrelated to work, set your profile to Unavailable for as much time as you need. Depending on how long you’re away, you may realize that your ranking might have changed once you are back, which is normal as your competitors may continue to complete orders and get buyer satisfaction responses while you are away. As you complete the orders your ranking can go back to where it was before. In addition to managing your incoming orders and availability, you can lean on others for support! If you frequently realize that you have more work than you can handle, it might be time to build a team that you can lean on. There are other excellent Sellers on Fiverr, such as virtual assistants or people in your industry, to whom you can delegate tasks. Want to read more?

What should I do when old buyer request for a new order. Should I create the order or will the buyer do it?

Day by day my gig impressions, clicks are decreasing. What should I do?

I am new member. My service is Teaching and helping in Mathematics. https://www.fiverr.com/s/qm4KDX

Hello, I just recieved an order, the order is about rewriting a book, and I just realised that the work is way too much to do and the price I had kept of my package was way too less, I am feeling very demotivated and sad about it, so I was thinking that after finishing 50% of the work and showing it to the client/buyer I can offer an extra saying that it's not compulsory for them to buy this extra but to appreciate my efforts please buy this extra (just as a Tip), will this ruin my impression and is a bad idea or is it fine, I won't force the buyer, will just ask as a favour, I know there is a Tip feature too in Fiverr but still it's very unlikely that they may choose it voluntarily, or should I just ask them to tip me? I feel that they might not tip me after completion of the order but might still buy the extra, in the risk of that might be I won't do the 50% remaining work properly. And anyway I am not forcing the client, so should I offer extra just as a Tip?

Hello, I earlier this year in January, I bought 2 gigs from a seller. I spend 161$ total. Seller has a promising argument: We promise 80 in DR on Ahrefs. If the DR drops, we provide lifetime guarantee to keep your site at 80. Maybe too good to be true? However, when my DR starts to drop below 75 I try and reach out to seller. Seller closed his/her account. Now I am back to where I was before I spend these 161$. Should I just accept the circumstance that from time to time you will loose money on Fiverr? Input appreciated.

While we do our best to diligently vet users to safeguard buyers from dishonest sellers, we also encourage all buyers to play an active role in ensuring you're not falling prey to any scams while working with a freelancer on our platform. Here are key tips to consider when doing business on Fiverr: Use discretion when sharing sensitive information When working with freelancers, sharing sensitive information and data may be necessary for them to get the job done. If you are able, have freelancers use their own login credentials and add them as an admin. In these cases, adhere to the principle of least privilege; meaning granting admin access only for what is necessary for the job. In cases where sharing your password is unavoidable (e.g., for website building or community management), consider using a password manager as a secure way to share credentials. After project completion, be sure to properly offboard freelancers by revoking their access and, for added security, consider changing your passwords. Keep conversations limited to the platform It's crucial to restrict your communication with freelancers to the Fiverr platform. Not only does this adhere to our Terms of Service, but it also protects you from potential scams. Communicating off the platform complicates our ability to resolve any issues and makes it nearly impossible for us to intervene effectively. While we can typically review on-platform conversations, issue refunds, and address concerns, these actions become challenging if communication occurs outside the platform, which leads to far longer resolution times. Contact customer support If you ever feel uneasy during your collaboration with a seller, you don’t have to take matters into your own hands. Simply inform our Customer Support team as soon as possible. They will be able to investigate the situation, offer guidance to resolve concerns or assist in canceling the order if needed. Remember, while we implement various security measures to protect buyers, taking a few extra steps can further ensure a pleasurable and secure experience on the platform, free from scams and potential issues.

Great information. Those informations are very important for a new seller.

It seems like there's a new scam-bot going around. I did scan the QR code, and after that it asks you to verify your bank details, didn't do that obviously. So please be cautious, especially as a new seller.

Hey everyone, My below query is regarding seller plus. April was the best month for me as I did over 40 projects with positive reviews and recently, I see my account is not like before anymore, I am not expert to be honest to find out what really happened and then a way to overcome the issue. What I meant is, what features does seller plus have, if I am facing such problems/issues in Fiverr, will seller plus be helpful? In terms of gigs what features will I have If I join seller plus? Thank you

While I don't know the answer to this, I do know the answer to the next questions: Fiverr used to verify Pro sellers (you can recognize them by the blue Pro badge next to their username on their profile page), but that's no longer the case (and even with verified Pro sellers things weren't always the way they should be). In other words, you can be certain that Fiverr didn't verify the seller, their skills, whether they are who they say they are (there are phone and ID verification, but those can be faked)... So you need to be very careful when choosing the seller, especially if you're going to give them access to something sensitive. And make a backup of everything, just in case.

Give your thought's and ideas about How to become Best Seller on Fiverr?

I want to know the benefit of Seller Plus for a new Fiverr user as a freelancer. please explain to someone in detail.

People are still out there who says "I am not getting order", stop all these. Just research the demand understand the basics of a business fundamental. That's it, you are good to go

Thanks for tips, Being a new seller this is very valuable

Believe it or not, Fiverr made my dream come true. I picked up my first instrument (guitar) when I was 7 years old, and studied with youtube and learnt from my older friends who were such good instrumentists. Later, I've picked up on piano as well, but I never had the chance to convince my parents to follow a musical school, and had to do it on my own. When I was in highschool, I got myself a copy of Ableton (which is a digital audio workstation) with the allowance money. Since then, I've experimented with producing music for myself, but never had the guts to release anything. The signs were there, but I always hesitated to pursue my dream of composing music for a living. Then, in University, I graduated Law School, and practised law, as a legal advisor for 4 years. The only constant in my life so far, was producing music and experimenting with music and sound design. In 2021, I've enrolled myself in a music production course, and realised that my level was quite advanced, eventhought I was self-taught. That gave me the courage to concieve the idea of maybe I can make some pocket-money out of this in my spare time. Therefore, in October 2022, I've found Fiverr and it's business model of Gigs, and decided to try it out. At the time, I asked my cousin for help, since he knew much more about sales and marketing, and also we were not looking for a quick cash grab. I was in charge of composing and producing the music, and he was in charge of sales & marketing. We found our niche of Video Game Music, since we are avid gamers, and the time spent playing videogames served well on my side, knowing how the music enhances different events and feelings that the game should express, and on his side it helped a lot when briefing with the customers, knowing what questions to ask. We even had some excel sheets with essential questions and flavour questions. We were very organised, and treated freelancing here as a very serious business. We analyzed our competition, learnt a lot from them, and created our first Gig which was priced, of course, at 5$. We've got 3 orders in the first 2 weeks (which was crazy if you think about it), and after that it was radio silence until January. In January we got another order, and things slowly picked up, and by March 2023, we were having around 15 orders/month on average. Then, we hit a brick wall, and decided to create our second gig, third gig and so on, and improve our first one to scale it as much as possible. From April 2023, it really started growing and the orders were quite constant. Unfortunately, in late May 2023, my cousin left since he had to focus on University studies, and there I was, having to learn the ropes of sales and marketing (which I never wanted to do, but I had to do it). By July 2023, the income made from composing music on Fiverr summed with the income from composing music outside FIverr surpassed the income I was having from my law dayjob and made me think that I could do this full time. At this time, I was working 8hr/day at the office, and 4 hr/day in the evening as a part-time job composing music on Fiverr. When the orders were piling up, there were numerous times I had to wake up 2 hours before going to office, to make sure I can create and deliver quality for my customers. This way, some days were 14+hours filled with work, and burned me out a bit. That's when I've took the risk and decided I want to pursue my calling instead of the boring office job I didn't liked. Therefore, in October 2023 I've quit my job and went freelancing full time. The first 3 months were super scary, and I often had the anxiety of thinking I did the wrong thing. The income was low, customers were fewer than before and most of my orders were from returning customers. But I was the happiest man on earth, since I did what I loved to earn my bread. Since I had a lot of free time, I've re-thinked how I marketed myself and did some drastic changes to my offers, my Gigs, and did a lot of A-B testing. In December 2023, being quite unsatisfied with my performance, I took the decision on joining the Seller Plus program and get in touch with my Succes Manager. And God, how the things changed since then. I was blessed to have the chance to meet the most involved person that helped me develop my Fiverr business and presence way further than I've ever expected. Always responsive, always helpful. With the advices from the Succes Manager and the will to risk it all for my passion, I've powered trough and took even more drastic decisions for my 2 most performing gigs. And you know what? It worked! Since then I'm having my best time here and each month is better than the last. Now I finally raised enough ammount of money to build my new recording and producing studio. I've finally received the City Permit (Authorization to Build) and the studio should be done by October 2024. All of this with the help of Fiverr which made it really easy for me (I'm not the most tech-savy person) to sell my talent and skill. Since October 2022, I've completed more than 230 Orders (90 of them being completed in the last 3 months), composed over 300 soundtracks, created sound effects and designed sound for over 100 indie video games. If you could tell my past self that this will happen, it wouldn't ever believe you. I know it's not much compared to other sellers that I look up to in my category and further, but I want to give back and hopefully help the new sellers that just started their journey here, and learn from my mistakes. This is what worked for me: Treat every order like it's your first. I had to learn this the hard way. At some point, after I got a consistent number of sales, I was starting to streamline my process of receiving orders and deliver them. Don't get me wrong, I do believe that a good business has to be streamlined to be the most efficient, but until you're not having 10 orders/day, it's not the case. My mistake was that I was less involved in the communication with my customers, and eventhought my products were higher quality than the ones from my first months of selling here, I wasn't retaining the customers like I did before. I realised that from that period of time (aproximately 3 months) there were only 2 customers that returned, while from the earlier timeframe (before streamlining my briefing and delivering process) there is still a great number of returning customers up to this day. Get involved and understand their needs personally and authentic, and they will stick with you even months later. Be prepared to revise over and over again. Of course I've started with unlimited revisions. After the first few months, I've encountered "that customer" that requested revision after revision and micromanaged everything that came into the production process, to a point where I've asked myself if he's a professional, dropshipping my services. The order lasted 2 weeks over the initial delivery time agreed. I was burned out and made the mistake of letting my ego take the wheel and confronted the customer on his practise. He accepted the delivery, never left a public review, but left a private review that hurt me even 6 months after that order. This was way before the new system was implemented, and with the help of my Succes Manager I've found out there's a private review hurting me like a truck. Now you think, "well, I can limit my revisions to only 2" but that don't work either. I've had customers keeping me in a 5+ revisions loop eventhought my offer included only 2. Don't make the mstake I've made and think the number of agreed revisions will be respected by your customers. Be prepared to revise over and over again each time you meet "that customer", because there will always be one at your frontdoor. Power trough that and provide your best service, since most of the buyers aren't unreasonable. This is how the revision system works sadly, and it's better to addapt and overcome it, especially when you're not like 500+ reviews in and a private one can hurt you even months after. Be authentic. Don't try to copy others in your category. Analyze their gigs, services and offers, and try to do better, of course, but don't try to imitate what they're doing since it's very less likely that you'll steal their audience, especially if you're looking up to seasoned sellers. The market is indeed very plentyful and customers are bombarded with 17.000 gigs when searching a certain category, but don't forget that you're selling on the internet. There will always be someone that will choose you because your unique traits. I've made the mistake to try to do what my competitors do, starting from the keywords, the style of the thumbnails, the style of how they've wrote Gig's description, and so on. Didn't worked. Why would've anyone pick me instead of my competitor who has more reviews than me and it's been there before I was? The momment I've realised this, and decided just to be myself and create my Gigs the way I thought it was good, I started gathering like-minded customers that are returning regularely, and the new ones are pretty much "my cup of tea", with of course the little exceptions (see "that customer" from above that creeps at your inbox right now). Use translation tools. As you might see from my writing, english is not my first language. Don't expect your customers to be english teachers or natives. When briefing with the customer, it's very important that you are 100% sure of what's the task and it's flavours. If you see your customer struggles to explain and you're not 100% sure of what are the fine details of the needed work, don't do my mistake and take the order and find out when you're delivering. You're loosing important time. Your time! Instead, you can see where your customer's from, translate your question in his language, send it and kindly ask him/her to respond in their native language. It happened to me many times that I had to "guess" some specific details, and since using translation tools to make sure I understand what's needed to be done exactly, the revision requests are fewer. Don't try closing the deal as soon as possible. When starting, I was always trying to close the deal as soon as possible, to make sure the potential customer won't pivot to other seller. Don't do my mistake! Make sure you put a lot of emphasis on the briefing process, since (at least in my field of work) customer requests are very subjective. If you're talking about art (music and audio in my case), some customers will see as "perfect" something that you don't. Take your time and discuss every little detail to make sure you understand their vision before accepting the order. It's risky because you might loose the potential customer to another seller? Well, yes, but it's more important to make sure you deliver exactly what your customer needs, and not get stuck in a revision loop or get over the deadline with "last minute details". Remember that every action has a direct consequence on your ranking spot and your gig's traffic, so think twice before saying you got all you need to start working on the order. Provide early drafts. It saves you so much time! With an early draft, you can make sure you won't loose your time in the wrong direction. Maybe you had all the needed details from the customer when starting the work, but guess what? There are a lot of customers that change their mind overnight. Provide them a draft as soon as humanly possible and ask for confrmation, so your time won't be wasted re-doing the job. I used to deliver the work without providing an early draft and it was a mistake. Almost 1/4 of my customers changed their mind overnight and shifted the key elements that we've agreed on initially, and when asking for the revision, I had to change structural elements of my work, resulting in almost re-doing everything since I had to addapt the rest of the work to their new requests. Educate your customers. I was just delivering the order and hoped for a returning customer. It was lazy, and it was a mistake. Before/When delivering, try to put together a small debrief on what you've actually done in your work. Your customers aren't stupid and eventhought you're an expert on your field, you could be surprised on how much your customers can learn from you and how that can beneffit you on future orders. Not long ago I've started sending my customers an explanation text with what instruments I've used, why I've used them, what's their role, what's the musical theory behind the composition and what's my personal take on all those things. This thing works! Next time you're collaborating, you'll have a much easier time to transpose customer's vision into your service, because they will know how to answer your specific questions! Give your customers some options You have that potential customer that wants to buy your 50$ service, but his budget is only 35$? I used to turn down those customers since my highest discount rate was at 20% and that way I lost potential returning customers! It was a mistake. Instead, at some point I've decided I'll take those requests, but I'll double down on the delivery time. Instead of 5 days delivery time, offer it in 10 days. That way, you will not loose a potential returning customer and you won't have to fit that project into your main scheddule. You can do it whenever you have a spare hour or two, since your delivery time is doubled! It works like a charm to me, and you'll be shocked on how many customers are not in a rush, eventhought they say so in their first message. Time is money, friend! Collect your own data I made the mistake on relying on memory and on the data shown by analytics to drive my business. Don't do that. It will save you a lot of time and you'll make informed decisions if you make your own spreadsheed with everything that happens with a relevancy for your Gigs. Try to track the most important stuff, such as: keywords performance, new customers/time frame, returning customers/time frame, types of projects done, the most asked questions or inquiries by your customers, orders that landed you tips and WHY that happened, changes made to the gig related to key factors etc. Be patient If you're treating every order like it's your first order, it's impossible not to grow. Don't make the mistake I've done by panicking when orders are not coming. It's not worth your time and your mental health. Instead, be patient, do your best on the services you provide, and try to slowly build your returning customer base. The best you can do proactively, is to fine-tune your Gigs, but be careful with that, since back-to-back changes might screw up the ranking algorithm (source for this is my Succes Manager). If you're looking to do A-B testing, wait at least 3-4 weeks in between, to have at least the minimum data to compare. I feel like there are much more to be told, but I just realised this post will take an eternity to read anyway, so I'll stop for now. I really hope my journey of pursuing my dream with Fiverr's help can motivate you and give you the strenght to power-trough rough moments, and that you can find something positive in the lessons I've learnt from my mistakes. Don't give up, and trust your skills and talent!
