Fiverr Seller Levels

So in this lesson, we're going to be learning all about the different cellar levels on fiber. And most importantly, how you can work your way up the level. So you can get more benefits, more traffic on your profile and then more orders and higher quality clients. So let's dive right in. Now, this is actually an official page on the fiber website. And you can actually go on that if you really want to, to dig in a little bit deeper. But ultimately, it tells you what the different cell levels are and also how you can work your way through the different levels to eventually becoming a fiber. Now, it says that the cellar level is based on your monthly performance, superb service, high buyer satisfaction and on time delivery. Now, within this course, I'm going to be showing you how to hit those three things. So you can eventually get more five star reviews, which will basically help you to climb up the rankings far faster. But right now, let's focus on the different seller levels. So we can ...

understand where we're going and then I can teach you how to get that. And as it says here by basically providing a great service, you're going to basically get more traffic to your profile, which will then result in more orders. So you can essentially earn more money. Now, if you're a completely new being and you've just started your fiber journey, then you're going to be classed as a new seller. Now, this is basically where your fiber journey starts. And as soon as you create a gig on fiber, you're going to start to be linked up with different clients who are looking for the service that you're looking to provide. Now, when you just start off on fiber, it's really important for you to get those first few orders, right? And I'll share a couple of tips bit later on. So you can really get off on the right foot. But the reason that this is super important is because if you've only done three orders and you're brand new on fiber and they've all been negative maybe one or two star reviews, no other clients are going to want to work with you. They're not going to want to waste their time. So it's more likely that you're going to have to basically start over again and start a brand new profile. So starting off on the right foot is really important and we'll cover all that later on in the course. Do not worry. Now, as a new seller, you essentially get to create seven of gigs. OK? So that's seven different services that you can offer your clients. You can also add two extras per gig, which will go through a little bit later on in the course. It's not that important right now. Don't worry about it just yet. You can also create custom offers up to $20,000 each. We'll also cover custom offers later on in the course. So do not worry about that. That's a little bit more advanced. And I'll tell you the certain situations when you should be using custom offers a little bit later on, and you can also withdraw your earnings after 14 days. So if you're brand new to fiber, then basically what happens is when a client pays you, fiver keeps hold of that money for 14 days before they release it to you. Now, the reason fiber do this is really simple. It's basically to make sure that the seller and the buyer are happy before they release the funds to the seller. I actually had a situation once where this was super useful where basically someone hacked my account and basically sent themselves think about 400 or $500. That was in my account at the time. And basically because the money hadn't cleared yet on their side and only been around two days I managed to contact and tell them what happened and they actually reimbursed me the money before it got sent out to the person who hacked my account at the time. This was super scary for me. I still remember walking up and down the beach almost crying my eyes out with my friends realizing that I've essentially been robbed. But now I do not keep any money on the fiber platform. And I also know that if anything ever goes wrong like that, as long as I check my account every one or two days, I basically know that if anyone tries to steal anything from my fiber account, I know for a fact that I'm going to get it back because this is how fiber works. It's super safe and super secure. So once you've been a new seller, you then move on to being a level one seller. Now to reach the level one status as a seller, you need to meet the following requirements. So you need to be an active seller for 60 days. So as I said before, fiver really wants to kind of figure you out and see if you're a good seller or if you're a bad seller, you also need to complete at least 10 orders over the full time that you've been on fiver. This isn't going to be difficult to do, especially to get the first one or two under your belt. Once you deliver a great service to two clients and they give you five star reviews. It's going to be really easy for you to get the next date, ok? But just be patient and it will all come, I promise. So you also need to earn over $400. You need to maintain a 4.2 star rating over 60 days with everything that you're going to learn in this course, 4.2 is not going to be a problem. Trust me, you're going to have to deliver a 90 per cent response rate score over days. What that basically means is if someone gets in contact with you via message, you basically respond to them as soon as possible. And as long as you respond to everyone, then this is going to be ticked off really easily. You need score 90 per cent order completion rate over the 60 days. And what this basically means is really simply over the 60 days. If you sell orders or work on 10 projects, nine of those 10 have to be completed and one is allowed to cancel. Now, obviously, we don't want any to cancel and we are aiming to complete all 10 because we want to get paid and we want to make sure that we keep our perfect score. And if you follow all of the things in this course, I promise you you're going to be able to manage your client's expectations and deliver on everything that you promised them. So just stay tuned and we'll follow up with everything a little bit later on. You need to achieve a 90 per cent on time delivery score over 60 days. This is actually a really simple one to get right. But you need to make sure that you dedicate the right amount of time to the project. This is all something that we're going to go through later on the course. So again, please don't worry, we will cover it a little bit later in more detail. And you also need to make sure you receive no warnings for 30 days. Now, this is one of the things that always gets new sellers in trouble. The reason being is there are some things on fire that you just cannot do. And I've dedicated a full lesson to making sure that I outline everything later on in the course because I've actually been given a few warnings over my time on the platform. I've been on the platform for 6 to 7 years now and some of the things that they do almost ban you for pretty strict. So I want to make sure we cover everything that you could potentially get a warning for to make sure you don't get into trouble with the platform and potentially get your profile banned. Now, once you become a level one seller, you get some additional benefits. So you can then create up to 10 active gigs. You can add four extra services for each gig. You can also create custom offers up to 20,000, which is the exact same as a new seller. Anyway, you can also create some offers up to 20,000, much like a new seller. So there's nothing different there and you can also withdraw your runnings after 14 days again, exactly the same as a new seller. So how do you get from being a level one seller on fiber to being a level two seller? Well, let's find out. So to reach level two status, you need to meet the following requirements. You need to be an active seller for 120 days. You need to complete 50 orders of all time. As you can see that, just finding out how good you are at providing the service that you are providing on the platform, you need to earn $2000 or more. Maintain a 4.2 star rating, which again is really low. Actually, we should be aiming for around 4.95 deliver a 90 per cent response rate, 90 per cent completion rate, per cent on delivery time and receive no warnings over 30 days. So what are the benefits that we get by becoming a level two seller where we get to add more active? So we get to do 20. Now, we also get to add more extras, create custom offers up to grand, which is pretty much the exact same as before you get to enjoy priority customer support, which is actually really useful around 34 weeks ago. I couldn't upload a video on my profile for some reason, I'm not sure why. And they basically within two days managed to fix it and everything was done. And it was just really incredible. So this is actually really, really useful and you can still only withdraw your earnings after 14 is now, I do know that level two sellers on fiver are the last ones that have to wait 14 days to retrieve their money. Once you become a top seller or a pro, then you're essentially trusted by the platform. And they basically let you take it out within seven days, which is great. It's basically half the time. But how do you become a top rated seller on fiver? Well, let's find out. So basically to become a top rated seller on fiver, it's the highest seller that you can achieve on the platform, obviously, apart from becoming pro, which is a little bit different, which we'll cover a little bit later on. So the fiber team manually reviews your performance for the previous 60 days and awards you with this level if you meet the following requirements. So you have to be an active seller for at least 180 days. So ultimately, if you have a really great run and work super hard within six months, you could literally be a top seller on fiver and be one of the best on the platform of what you offer, you need to earn over $10,000 which is actually super easy if you think about it's only $ per order, which is literally nothing. You need to maintain a 4.2 star rating over 60 days. Which to be honest again, is really, really low considering deliver a 90 per cent response rate over 60 days score, a 90 per cent completion rate, achieve 90 per cent on time delivery and have no warnings over 30 days. Now, what you get when you become a top rated seller is basically you get to create 30 active gigs. You get six extras, custom offers up to 20,000, which is the same for everyone. To be honest, you get top priority support and also get to withdraw your earnings after seven days. So just at the bottom, they disclaimer pro freelancers who go through a rigorous application process. Now the application process to become a fiber Pro is not really rigorous, but you just have to have things in place in a certain way to maximize your chances of success. And I'm gonna go through everything with you in this course. So do not worry, we'll cover everything and it's super simple. If you follow the step by step process, I'm gonna share with you. So as you can see, there are different levels to the fiber platform and you know, no matter what level you are, you are going to get gigs and clients who want to work with you. Now, one thing that I've learned from essentially being a new seller and working my way up to a top seller since April 2017. And then eventually a Fiber Pro is the higher your level, the more respected you're going to be as an expert on the platform by clients. And that's just the name of the game. You could be the most knowledgeable person in the world about building websites, for example. But it's going to take you more effort to be trusted by a potential client if you're brand new to the platform and you don't have any reviews. And the reason I'm sharing that with you is because when you first start out on fiver, it can be a little bit difficult. You can feel like you're not being respected, like people don't trust you and it can feel a little bit challenging to actually get clients on board. But once you actually start to build a reputation on the platform, they can see the reviews, they can see that you take care of your clients. You can really make things easy for yourself just by in those first few five star reviews on the board. Now, I know I keep saying this, but later on in the course, I'm going to be giving you all the tools that you need to help you succeed on fiber and manage your client's expectations. So you can get those fires star reviews and climb up the hierarchy of fiber sellers on the platform to be respected and trusted as an expert in your field. So on that note, let's continue the course and I will see you in the next lesson.
