I’ve made over $350k on Fiverr.
You don’t need a perfect profile, optimized gigs, 100 reviews, or any expertise to get started.
You need an internet connection and a willingness to learn.
In my first 6 months of selling I had:
- No logo
- No brand
- No portfolio
- No gig

Best week yet on UpWork. This is 90% hourly work so already spoken for. I'm pretty sure I outearned myself on Fiverr this week for the first time or very close to it. Nice accomplishment.
If this is somewhat sustainable I will have added a pretty material income stream in 2024

Update: First job secured.

FYI, I charge $250+ for this scope of work on Fiverr. This guy is getting a bargain lol.
I'll probably reinvest the proceeds into connects and try to build some momentum here.
OK...I caved and bit the UpWork bullet.
No reason (other than laziness) to not explore the platform and try to diversify my income a bit more.

Officially 0-10k on Upwork in ~4 months (Nov 1 -March 1).
Stats and Timeline:
- I actually made an UpWork in 2016, same as Fiverr. Did two scammy $5 jobs which are still on my profile today.
- I revisited very briefly in 2021 and gave up quick.
- I figured I'd try one more

I'm starting to see why the UpWork legends on here love to say "one client" can change your life. Admittedly always thought it was a bit dramatic.

Another solid contract from a direct DM + likely retainer incoming. Honestly impressed with the pace at which my profile is progressing here and can see this turning into a material income stream. Almost starting to hit capacity and am definitely overwhelmed with this + Fiverr.

One of the BIGGER updates I've seen from Fiverr for Pro Sellers just went live!
Here's what you need to know:
1. Fiverr is BACKING their Pro-Sellers. If a client is unhappy with your work or tries to take advantage of you - Fiverr will pay you out. This will make me sleep a

It's kind of a nuanced question.
Easier to GET STARTED? Fiverr because it takes less time and effort. You make your profile, optimize, and largely wait...you need to get ranked and until you do you're not going to have any work to do.

Having done both. Do you think it’s easier or harder to get started on Fiverr?
I always struggled with the concept of getting the clients to come to you on Fiverr. I was much better with the chase on Upwork in the early days.

Today’s Tip:
Reach out to other Fiverr sellers that offer services adjacent to yours.

Your pricing does not just tell you how much you’re getting paid.
Your pricing tells your clients what the perceived value of your services are.

Some UpWork Updates for those following along...
1. This $60 client is so damn difficult. My goodness. I forgot how hard cheap clients are to deal with. No guidance and poor feedback, yet they expect me to be a mind reader and show them exactly what they want. Ugh.

UW Updates.
2/~60ish. Got my first invite too which is still in progress.
Home stretch on project 1 which I lost money on and was one of the worst clients I've had to deal with in a while.
Project 2 is with an agency, lovely client. Seems like they'll be some recurring work

A common question I get is how to provide additional, unexpected value to the buyer experience without overworking yourself and burning out.
The answer?
Create 'one-and-done' digital assets that you can use over and over again.
A great example is the 'While You Wait' gift. I

Used the "File an Appeal" link on UpWork's supports site as a final straw of having the situation reviewed since I stopped receiving responses on the initial email chain and haven't heard anything from

UW is cool because you can wake up to a proposal response or DM and have a 6-figure contract scoped out over the course of the next few months, very casually.
Fiverr is cool because every morning you can wake up to 20+ new buyers messaging you about your services, a handful of

I just got blind side interviewed with literal quiz questions on a consult call.
Freelancers, how would you react? Fair play or red flag?
My thoughts: A few questions here and there about how you would approach are fair play, but literally quizzing me is ridiculous. Who is
