Is Fiverr Good for Beginners?

[@don1lee]

Hi Zulie, this is a good review of Fiverr. I agree - if you are a "generalist" in writing and searching for clients, you will face a lot of competition in the marketplace. However, Fiverr may be a good testing ground to see if you can do the work and deal with clients, but in the long run, you need to step up your game.

Zulie, I love your content so much! The journey to becoming even remotely solvent as a freelancer is rife with so much to learn, unlearn and straight up avoid altogether. Your advice is truly a breath of fresh air! Keep up the great work!

'Everything humans do, is worth way more than 5 dollars'- Totally, absolutely agree! Great video : )

Thanks for bringing us the truth once again!

Great job and presentation. Very informative. The only suggestion I have is to speak a little louder if you can.

I’m a good writer. I found Fiverr to be a bit useless and, I won’t lie, the lowballing made me uncomfortable. When I realized it wasn’t going to lead to better paying work, I bailed. I did hire a graphic designer from Fiverr once. I honestly felt bad paying them so little! I stay away from the whole thing now.

Hello zulie, I have a question please help me🙏🙏 I can't join medium partner program because stripe not exist on my country, how should I do to join medium partner program🙏🙏🥺

[@ZulieWrites]

at the moment, there is no way to be paid directly by Medium or Stripe if your country is not allowed. However, there is absolutely nothing stopping you from writing on Medium right now. You can totally sign up, start writing, build a portfolio and start getting followers now. You won't be paid by Medium directly YET, and I know that sucks and is unfair and I really hope Medium/Stripe change their policy soon, but a) there are other ways to earn money, like driving people to your own blog, using affiliate links and so on and b) eventually, I hope, Medium/Stripe will monetize for additional countries. If that's the case, you'll be established when that happens. Hope that makes sense and sorry I can't help more. I am always trying to find a workaround as it affects a lot of people, and I really believe that everyone deserves to be compensated for their writing, but as of yet, I have not found any good workarounds.

Hey Zulie, You are, simply amazing. Followed you on linkdIn, medium and KZbin. I'm writing on Medium. I can't monetize my stories due to country restrictions. Would you suggest I keep writing on medium? Please make a video if Medium doesn't monetize work. What are the other possibilities? Regards Iram Fatima

[@ZulieWrites]

I have made one! Here you go: kzbin.info/www/bejne/e3-ch4x7o9Gslas

Loving your honest review of fiverr

Hey Zulie , I want to ask that ,what should I do if medium is not monitize in my country.Is it worth to continue my writing on medium????Plzz slove my query

[@hungryminded]

Medium is still great for growing an audience. And you can monetize the audience in several different ways. You could create a digital product (course, template, anything useful) gumorad is a great platform for that. Or you could potentially start a newsletter (monetize directly through Substack, or through sponsorships). There are also affiliate programs you could use to monetize. And well, there's more. But I would say, Medium is still worth it.

[@shortclipwriter]

Please excuse me for interrupting. I say yes, it is worth continuing. Here is why. Writing on Medium allows writers to practice in public and improve their craft as a writer. No promises have been made, but if the day comes when your country becomes elegible, you'll be ready.
