Life can get busy but Fliverr can save me time to make life easier. I like that I can find gigs on there where people will do tasks for me. I like that they are better then other websites because you can see the costs upfront and the prices are very reasonable.
Overall I like Fiverr but I feel they can improve the search results. Sometimes when I search I see some gigs that are not relevant. I Also don't like hidden fees, it might show the price as $5.00 but then in checkout they add $2.00+ fee. I wish they would show that before the checkout page. Overall I still recommend them.
There are a lot of task that I need to do as a business. They provide services where they will do the task for me. This saves me a lot of time and allows me to focus on the most important aspects of my business.
Opportunity for entrepreneurship and ability to support a variety of service providers, as well as work with them directly. I can also hone my offerings by comparing with what else is available on the marketplace. Good for skill development and reaching a wide audience. I'm also glad for the opportunity to give and receive reviews, as this can sharpen skill levels.
There is a $2 order fee taken by Fiverr in addition to the percentage of sale Fiverr takes. This feels like overkill, especially on small $5 orders, because a $5 order is automatically $7, and a large percentage of that total cost goes to Fiverr. I think the fee should be totally waived, as they already collect a percentage. Alternatively, they could keep the fee but let the seller keep 100% of the advertised price.
I am working to increase my income with Fiverr. I am honing my services and realizing the variety of ways I can market my product. Already, I have developed two distinct sketching styles - a quicker one for a lower price bracket, and a more intensive one for a middle-range price bracket. I expect my skill and styles to further develop as orders come in and I respond to feedback and reviews.
I like the price, it is very inexpensive and I have found great quality work.
I do not like how fiverr recently increased their fee. I don't feel they increased any level of service to be charging double their old fee.
I outsource a lot of work through my business.
Prices are transparent. Profile reviews seem genuine unlike some markeplaces, which provides assurance of trust and value.
The extra convenience/service charge. Fiverr should stick to taking a % of revenue generated.
Finding freelance work that is not needed full time at a reasonable price. Service is amazing and quick.
The simplicity and communication on this tool is phenomenal - Stop spending time on your weakness'. Outsourcing is cheaper than hiring an entire new employee. We have sped up production time and cut our costs tremendously. This platform is extremely user friendly and easy to understand / navigate. There are levels to the sellers and ratings systems that really help select the best person for the job. Most recently, Fiverr introduced 'Fvierr Pro' for the most experienced professionals. You will pay more for the top tier on this particular type of seller but these people have actually been vetted by the website / company. They also do a good job by not over-saturating the website with too many sellers (they will close the category in terms of accepting new sellers)
There are fees associated with every transaction. The referral program could use some work in terms of incentives or users who consistency return to the site. Overall, nothing is horrible enough to stop our use of this platform - The vetting process of people creating profiles could use some work and make the website more reliable. There are hardly ever discounts and promo codes.
Constantly expanding their categories and services they offer - We are able to focus on our strengths and stop wasting time by outsourcing for a fraction of the price. Turn around time are always different depending on your project - but most sellers will take more money to expedite the service. We are solving all of our creative problems that really cost a lot of company time.
At a fraction of the cost of a unique local contractor's price I can get excellent production valued services with an extremely fast turnaround.
You get what you pay for. Many times I just can't get the product to exactly where I'd like it to be straight from the contractor, but I'm usually able to manipulate things in post-production to where I'm satisfied.
They take your production value to the next level at a very cost efficient rate.
What I like mainly about Fiverr is the fact you can find a lot of freelancers to do your work for any domain, from small prices too high prices, also Fiverr makes sure that the transaction happens successfully between me as a client and the freelancer is going to do my work
I feel like the percentage that Fiver takes on the amount between the freelancer and me should be improved after becoming a Fiver user for a long time like it should have some discounts that reduce the fee that Fiverr takes in between at least everywhere
So for example I use Fiverr for several proposes like finding a graphic designer who would design a logo for me, or someone who is an expert in using excel files to extract some info for me
I love the easy set up to start a gig! They provide videos and tips on how to start your gig and get going, although I don't follow them, they are really informational! Fiverr's big community helps you get started, it's easy to start gettings sales if you're not in a too big of a market or too small of a market. PayPal now has $0 FEES when you withdraw your earnings, which is AMAZING! They introduced this not too long ago! :)
Fiverr's fees. It may not seem like a lot, but Fiverr really wants their cut. They take a lot from the sellers. Not only do they charge the buyer's a processing fee of $2, but they take a cut of the actual gig price! I mean yeah, that's expected but not the high amount. If you sell something for $5, they will take $1. If you sell something for $20, they take $4. It really adds up, trust me. Lack of seller support. Yes, they make want to show a trusting brand, but they really don't back their Sellers. It's the sellers' fault if a buyer makes a false claim, you get punished either way. No way out it.
PROFIT! We gain a majority of our profit from Fiverr. Fiverr helps us stay in business.
