Using Promoted Gigs on Fiverr
So how do you promote your gigs on Fiverr actually has a promotion feature built into their platform which allows you to get your gig in front of the right people at the right time fairly easily. Now, this is paid promotion a little bit like Google ads and social media advertising. But it's specifically for the fiber platform. And this is super targeted because the allows you to get your service that you're trying to sell in front of the exact person that's trying to purchase that exact service at the right time. So what we're going to cover in this lesson is exactly how I approach using the promotion feature in fiber to get high quality clients to ultimately land more projects. So as you can see here, this is the promoted gigs section. And if we go down to this section here, we can see that there are a couple of things that we should be keeping an eye on. So as you can see here, there are two sections that we can run through. The first is the a overview. So this is all of the ads that...
I've done on the fiber platform altogether, which basically gives me an idea of how effective my advertising has been. So, for example, within I've had 43,000 impressions, about 400 clicks, orders using the promotion feature. I've had to spend around $1540 to get around $12,757 in sales. Now, if you go down to a performance, this is going to give you a little bit more of a breakdown in regard to which services have created most of that revenue. And as you can see here, it's actually the name development service that we offer on fiber, which has been bringing in most of that revenue. Now, the reason for that is the naming package that we offer on the platform is one of the most popular. And this actually makes a lot of sense if you think about it because this is a particular gig has the most reviews. It is the gig we basically do the most orders of and it's just the most popular service on fiber for us personally. So this makes a lot of sense that we have spent $ on promoting that specific gig. And then this has resulted in around $11,400 in sales in 2023 alone. Now, we'll actually be going through my full finances on fiber a little bit later on in the course. But this is just to give you an idea of the specific results of promoting gigs using the fiber promotion feature. Now, please keep in mind that these numbers do not include clients that have just got in touch with us directly, which is actually more significant than these numbers, which I'll show you a little bit later when we break down my full finances and income on fiber. And this also does not include the clients that have got in touch with us directly through our website and just via email. Ultimately, from finding me online overall, I would probably say that 11, is roughly around 3 to 4 per cent of the overall revenue that this particular service is brought in during 2023 alone. So this is actually a really good insight in regard to how popular the service is and also how beneficial the promotion feature can be on fiber if you really want to push your gig and get a great return on your investment. One thing that I will say is if you're selling services maybe 40 to $50 or maybe even $100 it may not be worth while you actually investing in promoting the gigs just yet. What I would do is I would wait until you're at a point where you can actually sell it for much higher, maybe 500 dollars or $1000. And then then you should be looking at promoting your gigs because sometimes it takes us $30 for example, to get the seal. And therefore, it wouldn't make a lot of sense if you were selling your services for $60 to simply make a $30 profit. Now, we do offer other services on the fiber platform, but let's just keep it to our promotable gigs at this moment in time. And let me show you how I approach promoting the gigs using this particular feature so that if you want to do the same, then you could copy my approach. So if I wanted to promote this naming gig here, I would simply go to this little toggle and press promote, which is pretty simple. And then I will click this button here which will simply take me to two options. The first option is promote with no cap, which basically means they're going to be promoting your gig in the most aggressive way possible. Now, the fiber promoter gigs feature works the exact same way as Google. And what I mean by that is the person who is willing to pay the most is going to be seen the most often and they're also going to be higher, the ranking therefore, be more likely for the customer to click on them. And that's what it means by promoting with no cap, which is actually recommended by fiber because that's how they make the most money. Now, if we go to promote with customized cap, we can then set a ceiling for how much we're willing to pay per click. Now, I've tried so many different approaches when it comes to using a customized cap on my promoted gigs. But to be completely brutally honest, I've always found that promoting with no cap has been better simply because it tells fiber that you're ready to take on projects and it gets you in front of the right people the most often. So once I select that I would simply just select save and then that is pretty much it fiber is now pushing that particular gig out to the community to get clients to notice me so that they can get in touch and I can set up meetings to sell my service. Now, just to be completely clear, I do believe that the promoted gigs feature is only available to top sellers and maybe even level two sellers and obviously pro sellers as well. So please keep that in mind because it doesn't actually make sense for you to be taking advantage of this particular feature when you're a level one or new seller, simply because you don't have the trust and the credibility yet and you're still figuring things out. So please be patient. Now, obviously feel free to take any advice in this particular lesson to use yourself, but obviously try to use your own approach as well and learn what works for your specific services and your profile. Anyway, that covers everything in regard to promoting gigs on fiver. So I will see you in the next lesson.
