Introduction How to Setup Fiverr Account
We are starting a freelancing for beginners series on this website for all of you who are brand new to freelancing, as well as for those of you who have been doing it for a little bit. I promise you there are still going to be some helpful nuggets included.
Setting Up Your Fiverr Seller Account
In this post, I’m going to cover how to create a Fiverr seller account. Note: Since I already have a Fiverr seller account set up attached to my ID, I can’t create a new one, but I’m still going to go through the entire process from start to finish. So you guys are not confused.
Optimizing Your Fiverr Profile
I’m going to show you how to set up a Fiverr profile that will absolutely be ready to help you start making money once you are done with this post.
About My Book: “Freelance Your Way to Freedom”
But before we dive in, I wrote a book called “Freelance Your Way To Freedom.” Everything I’m going to share in this video with you guys is expanded upon like 300% in this book, plus so many other things—side hustles, mindset, money investing, everything I know.
Creating Your Fiverr Account: Step-by-Step Guide
The first thing you’re going to do is go to fiverr.com. Remember, that’s Fiverr with two R’s. You’re going to click on join and register your email. Then you’re going to pick a username.
Importance of a Professional Profile Picture
The first and most important thing you need to pay attention to here is your profile picture. It needs to be a high-resolution, crisp image of yourself smiling with eye contact.
Showcasing Your Skills and Portfolio
Right below here, you can throw in some of the keywords associated with the services you offer. If you scroll down, here are my clients and my portfolio. It is very important to have examples and social proof of your work for these people to review.
Fiverr Learn: Gaining an Edge
Down here we have Fiverr Learn. Fiverr has its own online course portal. I do believe, that if you take some of their courses and they’re pretty cheap, Fiverr probably gives preferential treatment to people who are investing in their products.
Crafting an Engaging Description
Your description is very important. This is a chance for you to humanize yourself since Fiverr is anonymous. I throw in that I’m 29, my background, and an enthusiastic closing to connect with potential clients.
Highlighting Your Skills, Education, and Certifications
Add your skills here. This is very much like LinkedIn. This is easy to do. Link your social presence, professional presence, education, certifications, and notable projects.
Setting Up Gigs Strategically
Now in the next video, I’m going to go over specifically how to set up these gigs. If you’re brand new, I recommend starting out with just three services on your profile, no more than that.
Perfecting Your Gig Title and Image
For the title, you want to make sure it is not too long and is packed with your keywords. The gig image is equally important. Use high-quality visuals to make a strong first impression.
Using Tools Like Canva for Gig Images
If you’re wondering how to create gig images, Canva is a fantastic tool. You can use its templates to design professional images easily.
Next Steps and Additional Resources
In the next video, we will cover extensively the actual setting up of the gig. I’ll also link relevant videos for you to check out.
