People out there will pay for your skills, you just have to find them.
One person who’s done an excellent job of finding them over the last 9 months or so is Georgia Austin from WizardOfContent.com.
Georgia took her skill of writing, and despite a crowded world of other writers out there, did over $500k worth of work through the Fiverr platform last year, including $90k the month before we recorded.
In October of 2017, Fiverr launched a new service called Fiverr Pro, which features the top 1% of sellers on the platform.
Our business was the first to be featured in the Pro section for SEO, and here we’ll explain some of our strategies for building your brand on Fiverr as well as best practices for being accepted into Fiverr Pro.
This post will explore some of the best Fiverr gigs you can buy to help get your side hustle business off the ground on the cheap. This is perfect for bootstrappers without a lot of capital to play with!
Beyond being an excellent place to begin your side hustle as a seller of goods and services, Fiverr is an amazing resource for entrepreneurial buyers.
Kendell Rizzo made over $100,000 in profit in 18 months part-time selling services, workbooks, and other downloadable products on Fiverr.
In addition to being a 6-figure Fiverr seller, Kendell is a crowdfunding expert, a world traveler, an ironman triathlete.
Fiverr is still going strong, it’s a great example of a Buy Buttons platform – there’s no bidding for work and no outside marketing necessary. This is what attracted Kendell to Fiverr after being frustrated with other freelance endeavors that sap time bidding for jobs or submitting resumes.
Fiverr may have started as the $5 marketplace, but savvy sellers know there’s potential for much higher earnings on the platform.
These opportunities come in the form of gig extras (upsells), multiple orders, and their new custom offer tool. With the custom offer tool, you can now actually make sales up to $10,000, as AnarchoFighter shared earlier this year on The Side Hustle Show.
But if you’re just starting out as a seller, it can be tough to identify which gigs have high average order values.
Twenty months and 90 episodes ago, I was introduced to the incredible story of AnarchoFighter, the Top-Rated Fiverr seller who earned enough cash on the platform to buy a house.
That episode convinced me to give Fiverr a shot as a seller myself, and it’s turned into a fun side hustle income stream. Since we last spoke, Fiverr has implemented a bunch of changes, including the option to create custom quotes up to $10,000.
And Mark was the first to make that $10k deal, taking a buyer from $5 to 5-figures:
One of the surprising bright spots in my side hustle portfolio (my strategy of building multiple income streams) has been Fiverr.
After hearing the incredible story of AnarchoFighter last year, I knew I had to give the platform a shot!
While I haven’t exactly earned house-buying money, it has turned into a nice little revenue source. I’m up $7490 through 14 months, or a little over $500 a month on average.
I’m excited to welcome Alex Genadinik back to The Side Hustle Show as the first-ever repeat guest. Alex reached out and told me how he’d applied many of the strategies and tactics discussed on the show over the past year, and I thought it would be fun to highlight some of those along with his progress.
Alex’s “year of hustle” has created at least 4 new income streams, including a couple more “passive” channels.
This episode illustrates the power of starting today, so you can look back a year from now and see how far you’ve come.
My latest side hustle experiment landed me on the homepage of one of the world’s 200-most popular sites.
This story has its origins last summer when I talked with AnarchoFighter, the Top-Rated Fiverr seller who earned enough cash on the platform to buy a house.
I began tentatively, selling pdf copies of my books, but then got a little more adventurous. This post explores why I think I was featured on the homepage, how you can set yourself up for similar exposure, and how to make the most of it when it happens.
Everyone knows Amazon’s self-publishing platform is the place to be for indie authors. That’s not news. I mean, where else can you instantly get shelf space in the world’s largest bookstore, and reach a network of millions of Kindle owners, all for free? To be sure, if you’re not on Amazon, you’re definitely missing out … Read more
