How do I marketing my Fiverr gig?

Back when I was doing Fiverr gigs I stayed active on the Fiverr forums. I actually got a lot of gigs that way.

And while I haven't tried this myself, I've seen some people actively market their gigs on Twitter. I never tried this method, so I can't speak to its effectiveness. There was also some talk of Twitter blocking Fiverr links. Not sure about that.

Basically, marketing your Fiverr gig is just like marketing any other product or service. Do you have a Facebook page? I've seen some people set up a small website (1-2 pages) to help drive traffic to their gigs.

Sorry I can't offer any more advice.

Good luck!

Here are some tips:

- Do email promotions to past customers

- Drive traffic to your Fiverr gigs outside of Fiverr

- Start your own freelancing business doing the same thing you do on Fiverr. You can charge more for your services, and actually start seeing bigger chunks of profits on each new client you get.

You can your gig url share social media, forum posting, email marketing, video marketing and use marketing others method. Make video on your gig (less then 1 min.), Hope increase your sell.

- Forum posting
- Email your list
- Blogging
- Add a video to your gig
- Improve your fiverr image
- Offer more value compare to your competitors

It's my suggestion that you really shouldn't spend any time marketing your services on Fiverr.


If you do so, it's worth considering that you will:


------------------

* Direct prospects to a marketplace swarmed with competitors (they may click elsewhere and choose another seller on Fiverr) potentially losing a (low ticket) sale.

* Witness ineffective marketing / conversion ratio, undervaluing your services.

* Raise brand awareness of Fiverr, advertising others through your own efforts with little to no return.


--------------------------



I suggest you should consider establishing a website of your own setting a pricing structure that is fair to both you and the client in accordance with your skill level and industry pricing for that skill level.

Your website is then the secondary channel to potentially generate an income from the same service you offer on Fiverr. Fiverr is the place where you take advantage of their own efforts in marketing (and sellers who make the mistake of advertising it) to garner 'organic' views of your services. i.e visits generated by someone else. You should take advantage of the machine rather than be a cog within it.

If and when your Fiverr channel receives a fair amount of feedback from your customers, you then have the ability to screenshot that social proof (cutting out anything directly related to Fiverr) to use this on your website which you should spend your time marketing.

This also applies to all work you do on Fiverr. Carry it over to your website portfolio.

Let each channel compliment the next - namely Fiverr serving as an asset to establish and populate your website with valuable content.


Never lead a prospect out into a vast market of competitors on a website unless the site is offering an asset which boasts a value which overshadows the risk of losing the sale, or is a mandatory component in the sale equation. i.e a company who actually manufactures a product or renders a service themselves.



All the best!

I agree. It's counter-intuitive to the whole idea of using someone else's platform to get a share of their traffic.

You get traffic from it, you don't drive traffic to it.

The same goes for sites like Youtube, Ebay, Warriors for hire, etc.

You should make an unique & good gig. You have some positive & good feedback also. You will be able to share the gigs to your social media sites. Thanks for your advance.

That's great that you're trying to kill it on Fiverr…they can always use better gigs on there!

The hardest part with Fiverr is getting traffic to your offer. What I found works is that to get started, have a friend purchase your gig and give you a great review…if it deserves it (I would never condone opening a fake fiverr account to boost your own gigs).

Also, be sure that you do a little homework and see what your top competitors are offering, then do better!

And if you're really feeling motivated, you can always spend a few dollars driving traffic to your gig with PPC or even promote it on Facebook and to Facebook groups in related niches!

I hope that helps and good luck!
