I spent an embarrassingly long time working exclusively on Fiverr, around 3 years I'd say. Sometimes I'd get something on Upwork or reddit but the majority of my work came from Fiverr
As has already been said: They take 14 days to process your payment, which is bullshit(especially since they have now an option to be paid faster, but you have to pay an amount of money for it), and they get 15% of ALL money sent to you, that's ridiculous, but what's worse is that also applies for tips, which should be 100% yours.
>Your "Gigs" are your storefront, treat it kinda like a commission sheet, your prices should be base prices that can go up.>Most clients won't pay from the gig, they'll message you and you'll send a custom order to them.>Clients are retarded, so you need to keep everything VERY clear so they won't bitch about stuff>They're also very sneaky. Since prices on Fiverr are low, people use it to make art for commercial stuff like t-shirts, do NOT let people pay low for stuff they pretend to sell, price your shit accordingly or you'll be used by cunts>It'll take a WHILE for work to come in at the beginning if you don't do any marketing, and honestly, if you're doing marketing you should be pointing to your website, not to fucking fiverr. once you start to get a few 5 star reviews work starts to come more steadily thoHonestly, Fiverr is aimed at people who'll do a large amount of work fast and not ask for a lot of payment, but you can make good money on it if you don't whore yourself out and be professional. It's also kind of desperate work, you'll be paid way less than you should
I stopped doing Fiverr when I realized I was whoring myself out to a website when I could simply start treating myself and my work as a business, it's worth it.
I had some small issues like
>>5908106 with messages disappearing, but never had to contact customer support, so I can't comment on that, but the site is buggy sometimes
