FIVERR - How to utilize the Power of Professionals on Fiverr in 2014?

8 replies
Hey Fellow Warriors, we all know that there are talented professionals on Fiverr. I've been meaning to create a website whereby I would feature the top 10-20 gigs on Fiverr offering all types of IT related services, maybe in different category tabs. I would obviously use different descriptions, graphics and call to action to sell those gigs using my own prices. It's basically using the power of arbitrage to make some profits. I know I would have to drive huge amounts of traffic to the site so I need your advice on:

1) Do I create a website with all 10-20 gigs featured on the home page or use category menu tabs at the top for the different gigs like 'Design', 'Video', 'Writing Services' etc?

2) What theme would you recommend for this project with paypal integration?

3) Is this project viable?

I really appreciate your advice/comments in advance.

Thanks

Ross

    That sounds like a cool idea. I know Daniel Evans covered this in 'Fiverr Champions'. I've seen other marketers create these sites and have the categories of each service on the menu tabs.

    I hope that helps you. Good luck with your idea and take action.

    Yeah this is an awesome business model that works and will not be going anywhere.

    As for the niches, you could do a site with a few related gigs, just keep it in the same niche and don't go over the top with it so it becomes cluttered and confusing.

    When starting off marketing it I would approach the sellers on Fiverr and ask if you can use some of their sample work on your site and then start looking for jobs on Elance, Odesk and other freelancing sites. Start off low and increase your prices as you get a better rep.

    You will get a lot of business just by doing that then if you can mix in some forum marketing you will be away.

      I would humbly differ from "Fiverr is the best option".
      Fiverr might have been the best option some time ago, but no more. The genuine providers are hard to find due to the flood of low quality providers. At present SEOClerks is THE place to go..

    The thing I feel frustrating about re selling from Fiverr is that the best sellers have so many orders in queue that it may take more than a week or 15 days to get the gig, and if the buyer doesn't like it then revisions and stuff, it wears my patience out.

    There are only a handful of quality sellers who would do it sooner. I often find an option that I can rely on to be people per hour and the same place could also be used for re selling some gigs

    I have a site I created last year to resell Fiverr gigs but did nothing with it - it's in a different niche than IT, This year it's on my plans to really kick it up the ass and get it going so that I only need to do some minor management with it from time to time, but I am also hoping it's good business model!
