NEW Fiverr Gig Image Guidelines with Fiverr Top-Rated Seller Joel Young

[@kristjanilumae3044]

Hi Joel! Glad your back. Question ❓ Can I use my reviews and samples from Fiverr for my personal online business page? Thanks in advance 🙏🎉

[@JoelTalks]

That’s a great question! I’ll try to include that in this week’s video :)

[@AbdulRahman91182]

Hey Joel, i have a question: do you think that offering a service that takes 10h (40$-60$) to complete in a very competitive market is a good idea ? especially when the number of sellers are much more than the audience

[@JoelTalks]

Interesting question. I’ll see if I can work it into my next video!

[@ericsart8]

Hi Joel, great love from Kenya. Thanks, we really appreciate your videos. Q1: How do you cancel an order without ranking down on Fiverr? Q2: Am a digital illustrator, most clients really love the illustrations I create and leave a 5-star review. How do I get them to accept leaving a portfolio image of their project on my gig/portfolio? Most of them don't!

[@JoelTalks]

Some great questions! I’ll try to work these into the next video :)

Hi Joel, I have a question: Can you recommend some project management softwares to a person who works with a team on Fiverr? and do you have any tips?

[@JoelTalks]

That’s a great question! I’ll put it in my list for next week :)

[@fahimedits3]

Same question, Do a indepth video on the project , team & Finance management software/ tips Joel. Thanks a lot

[@ilyaselmegarbi174]

One other question: Where I can find or What I have to do to find other designers to help me when I have a lot of orders. I tried 2 different people in my country and 1 in sub-africa but I couldn't find someone that I can trust their creativity. I have about 18 active orders right now and I'm really afraid of losing some of them, as you already know I can't make any order directly through Fiverr. What do you think I should do? Thanks for the content ❤

[@JoelTalks]

Not sure hiring someone is the answer to your problem. I’ll try to include this in next week’s video :)

[@ilyaselmegarbi174]

@@JoelTalks Thank you! I really appreciate that!

[@JoelTalks]

You bet!

[@dishankshah5080]

I think you should set an order-taking limit until you find the subcontractor as per your requirements.

[@ilyaselmegarbi174]

Hi Joel, I have a question: How do you handle demotivation? Because sometimes I have a lot active orders and revisions but I don't know why I can't set on front of my laptop. It's a weird question I guess 😅

[@rushrush6754]

Your price is too low..... create more gigs and price higher.

[@ilyaselmegarbi174]

@@rushrush6754 Wrong! I have 6000$ just of active orders. It's not always about the money

[@JoelTalks]

That’s a a good question. Motivation is a big deal! I will try to talk about that next week :)

[@akashsingh6051]

Hi Joel, thanks for answering my questions. It was helpful!

[@JoelTalks]

Glad to hear that!

[@santiagorodriguezlira2323]

Hi Joel! Thank you for your insight and time! I was wondering... you say you reinvent yourself every 3/4 years. At what point through that period do you say, "hey, i need to start thinking ahead, what new skills do i have to learn in order to stay above the crowd in 2/3 years" and how gradually do you apply it? Also, what are your thoughts on AI voices?

[@JoelTalks]

Great questions! I’ll try to talk about these in my next video ;)

[@Mes_Valeurs]

Hi Joel! Thanks for adressing my question last week :) I got another one lol! What system are you using for accounting. I am better on the production side of busniess than the administration and accounting, any tips for me?

[@JoelTalks]

That’s a great question for this time of year :) I’ll try to talk about that sometime!

[@Mes_Valeurs]

@@JoelTalks Thank you so much for your generosity🙏. It would be great if some top rated sellers (from different categories) in your community, 10 persons max, would create a mastermind to exchange tips and tricks in order to thrive on Fiverr. For instance, I am a french voice actor so I am not in competition with englsh voice actors. Food for thoughts🧠 We could do a quick call 15mins once week.

[@JoelTalks]

That’s an interesting thought, but I’ve needed really felt like I had the time for that. Right now, I prefer to just put out KZbin content :)

[@m.a.a_artwork]

Shouldn't artist put their work instead of their personal pictures as the main image?

[@DragonGuardian100]

Why not put both? That's what I do! :) I have a clip art picture of myself on top of my work.

[@JoelTalks]

Absolutely…I think it’s not a question of either or. Both should be there!

[@voicesbystorm]

Heya! About their recommendation to use all three gig image slots. Do you recall not too long ago when they were experimenting with gallery tags, and it ended up being a spectacular failure? Gigs were really showing up weird in searches based on those gallery tags, and it was also impacting which gig image showed up in the searches, too. From what I understand, it didn't work the way they were hoping, they got a lot of bad feedback and stopped testing it. I'm wondering if they're getting ready to mess things up with those gallery tags again. LOL

[@JoelTalks]

Oh wow…I haven’t heard that! Here’s hoping they figured that out.

[@samanthagaboo5610]

Super well produced video, but consider time tags on your description.

[@JoelTalks]

Thanks for that feedback Samantha! I would love to start doing more of that...it's al about time for me though. This is just a hobby :)

[@arslanmalik8921]

Hey Joel Thanks for all the answers My question is when we get deranked because of a private review that a buyer might had left what can we do to get our gig re ranked and back in the search❓ Thanks

[@JoelTalks]

Interesting question…How would you know if that was the case? How would you even know if you were “de-ranked”? See what I mean?

[@arslanmalik8921]

@@JoelTalks Well for the deranked part I think the impression drop speaks for its self plus making continues changes has made it even worse.. For the the private review case I think it might because of one client who later deviated from the initial brief and wanted more but didn't wanted to pay. So I think that one case might be the issue

[@arslanmalik8921]

@@JoelTalks Never the less your are the expert I hope you can guide me better as my gig is on the last pages and I've recently updated my gig image according to the new Fiverr notification and updated the tag and description So you being the expert; what would you suggest other than that.. Thanks again for all the hard work you put in the channel 🙂 🙏

[@JoelTalks]

I think your consistent charges may have more to do with the drop in impressions than whatever feedback you may or may not have received :)

[@arslanmalik8921]

@@JoelTalks Well thankyou so much for the tip. How long do you think should I wait before making any future changes 🙂

[@carlos-modernexcelsheets5313]

Hey Joel! Thank you for answering my question last week! I have one more question for you: Can I add an icon on my Fiverr gig image showing that I have taken a skills test? If I score in the top 10th percentile, for example, can I add that to my image as well? Thanks in advance!

[@JoelTalks]

Great question! I’ll put that on my list :)

[@chathur_]

Thank you ❤️😎

[@JoelTalks]

My pleasure!

[@rushrush6754]

Buyers can leave hidden reviews, so if you leave a bad one later then can write bad in hidden which does affect ranking

[@JoelTalks]

Only if that gig is selected for “private review”.

[@osslo99]

Thanks Joel for answering my question, I contacted them several times continuously.. Luckily the problem was solved successfully! Thank you for the valuable content man 🙏
