Any Experiences Using Fiverr?

I signed up today. It’s a marketplace for Services.

If you can draw, Somebody will probably pay you to produce sketches.

Need a harmonica player to record * We Are the Champions? * He’s probably out there too. :smiley:

Seems to be a wide variety of services offered.

Anyone use Fiverr? Have you been satisfied with the work provided?

Does Fiverr take Seller ratings as seriously as Ebay?

I’ve had many things done. Mostly graphic design or video work, some Wordpress coding too. No issues here. I love it for little projects.

Ditto - I’ve used it for voiceover work and graphic design, and have always been very happy with the quality-for-price.

And if you’re thinking of being a vendor, do the math - some of the voice over folks I hired had to be making north of $50 an hour provided they had enough orders to queue, which is pretty decent for work-from-home piece work.

But some others probably only got 1 or 2 orders a day, which probably isn’t worth their time. Where you fall on that is highly dependent on your qualify, referrals, and existing customer base, I’d imagine.

I don’t plan to sell any services.

I needed someone to play flute on a music track. It’s kind of hard to find a musician that plays it regularly.

Someone that played years ago in a high school band wasn’t going to work.

I found a musician at a reasonable price. Figured it was worth a shot.

I assumed Fiveer is primarily part-time work for many people. They have days jobs and Fiveer is a way to earn extra $$$$ without moonlighting as a cashier at a convenience store.

I forgot all about Fiverr. Things have changed. It used to be that everything cost $5 and it was for simple errands and such. It’s way more professional and expensive now.

I need to filter and see if there are any people offering local services. Running errands, filing etc.

Would be great to find people that do stuff I really don’t have time for.
