    Maybe the issue is not the copy but the believability of the copy. You make $10,000 a month, yet you offer a $5 gig? Is that believable without proof?

    Because its fiverr, why not start with the second sentence and remove the unbelievable section in the copy.

    This sounds more like a WSO for $20.

    First I think starting about yourself rather than who you’re talking to is weaker than, let’s say, laying it out there for them all at once (ironic sentence, lol). I’d go with "Learn how ___" rather than "I generate". It’s less egocentric. Everyone likes a pro but no one likes a braggart. In order to address the believability mentioned above, you could put a lower value and ad a + afterwards. It will still be impressive and any extra gains buyers make will only add to their gratitude which is likely to generate good feedback and enforce your selling power.

    There’s a lot of flash in this short little snippet. To me, that makes it feel convoluted but that’s personal preference. The FIVERR Bonus at the end is good, but you highlight FOR YOU instead of NO COST. I’m happy you’re doing this for me, but would rather it be for free. Free is just too powerful.

    You are not being honest. If you are, then maybe I'd take you seriously.

    How on earth do you expect someone to purchase a gig from you for $4 when you are making $10.000?! Anyone can spot lies.

    Maybe rearrange it a little? For example:

    TITLE: Free dating website set up for you - promote it yourself and make CASH!

    COPY: I make A LOT of extra cash every month promoting online dating sites in certain niches. It's exciting and I want you to know how I do it! For $5, I will send you my step-by-step report showing you how you can get started today!

    ...and so fourth and so on...

    Even better, write a few versions of this different ways. Post a version and leave it there for 48 hours and see what happens. If you're satisfied with the results, you've found an appealing copy. If not, switch it up again. Keep going until you find what works OR

    After all that work and trying everything, you have to come to the conclusion that there's just no market or interest on Fiverr for what you're offering at the moment.

    I certainly hope that helps even a little! Best of luck!

    I'm kinda reluctant to help you because I have a hard time believing you.

    I actually know a couple people in the dating niche, not very many, but a few, most guys in that niche are lazy SOB's so $10K a month would actually put you pretty close to the middle of the top tier over there.

    Anyway...

    Your making some common mistakes that other people often make, so it's possible this will help them, and if I'm mistaken about my assumption about you please accept my apology.

    Round numbers are MUCH less believable than "real" ones. For example, I made $10,073.44 last month promoting dating niche sites, and I want to show you how.

    If your making $10,000 a month, selling this as a Fivr gig is pretty hard to believe, just as everyone here said.

    If you want to increase your conversions, you need to include a pretty strong reason why you are selling this "$10k a month secret" as a Fivrr gig.

    Put some sort of deadline on it, I can only sell XXX copies, or this is only going to be available until XXX...if you can combine your reason for the deadline along with the reason why your selling the gig in the first place thats even better.

    Anyway that should get ya started.

    Go look at the story lines that any number of IM offers follow with the reason they are doing it and you can start to come up with ideas.

    JK

    Edit PS. Here's an example of adding a reason why. I was once giving away nearly $700 in bonus to get people to sign up for a $29 a month product. The copy was great, but it was converting for S***....well turns out nobody believed any sane person would give away $700 in bonus to get you to buy a $29 a month product...so I explained to them. The reason I'm giving away so many bonus is that I really want you to subscribe to my service, and I want you to subscribe because frankly, I know that once you do you will buy many more of my products and services, and you will be worth far more than the $700 I'm giving away in bonus.
