Earning money with Fiverr working as a Freelancer is possible even from Venezuela, since in this platform they look for services of practically anything. Given that there is a huge amount of categories we can find all kinds of things when choosing what to do.
¿Como comienzo en Fiverr?
Well simple, here is where the number of categories that exist and where we can practically do everything comes in, I am going to write a little about each one of the big ones but all these are subdivided into much more categories seeking specificity.
Categories
- Graphics & Design: If you are good at drawing or you are a graphic designer or even if you know how to model in 3D this category is for you. With it you can find all kinds of options to work you can design business cards, draw cartoon, model characters in 3D. Making the menus for some restaurant, it is practically everything related to design.
- Digital Marketing: Everything that has to do with marketing, here they include Social Media Marketing. Email Marketing or even content, the idea is that if you know something about marketing here you can promote yourself and equally if you know SEO you can offer your services.
- Writing & Translation: one of the ones that most attracts my attention is this category. In it we can offer our skills as a writer to whoever needs them and if we know another language they can also be translators. But it does not stay there but we can also offer our skills to make summaries or even write posts and articles for other blogs. As you can see, it is very large and has many options if you like writing or if you are good at least.
- Video & Animation: This is something more complicated and you must handle tools well to be able to fulfill orders in this area. For example we have video editing or GIF making but it goes so far as to be able to talk about character animation or product animation in 3D. So if you are from the area it will come like a ring to your finger.
- Music & Audio: A category also specialized for those who know music and audio editing. You can even offer sound effects so we have quite a field if we know of this type of activities as freelancer.
- Programming & Tech: one of the ones that I think has more competition, due to its wide range of content. The same ones can do jobs from installing a simple wordpress, up to development of games. It is something quite large in terms of categories where to work, there are specialists in many areas including those of support in case they have some problem and require server solution. But it is necessarily for people who obviously are specialized in the different areas of programming and technology.
- Business: this is quite interesting if you do not have any of the previous profiles. Since in this we can offer ourselves to be virtual assistants, something that works very well in many cases but not only specializes in that if not that there are more categories like financial consultancy. Tips for companies or creation of presentations.
- LifeStyle: The most important category if none of the above suits our profile or if we want to do something simpler. In this we can find practically everything, from online lessons, astrology, reading cards, welcome letters. Messages in different places that really can be messages in very varied zones or even you can offer services in Gaming whether being coach or simply offering yourself to play with someone. The truth is that in this category we can offer anything, which is within the regulations so all that remains is to use your imagination.
¿Como publico mi servicio en Fiverr?
Now that you have decided what to do among so many categories, begins the not so difficult but important task of creating a GIG and if you wonder ¿Que es un GIG?. Simple it is the way fiverr publishes our service offers as freelancer.
To create a GIG you must be registered, which you can do at this link:
Once registered we go directly to the "Seller" section changing view to what will be our inbox:
In this area we can create our GIG from scratch by simply pressing "Create a New GIG". With this, the beginning of a new GIG is deployed.
Creating a GIG
The GIGS always but absolutely always begins with "I Will". Since the GIGS must be in English, you must take that into account when giving title to your service.
Once we have our title ready comes the category, this being selected in turn displays the Sub-Category that we want to choose. But not until you select it as a second category that something of utmost importance will begin to unfold, the GIG METADATA. This refers to the data that Fiverr will use to position our GIG so that only people who are looking for something similar to what we decide to offer get to us.
With the metada complete we must place the TAGS or labels, they must be only 5 but for that reason they must be very good so that the search engine knows that our service is what it is looking for. The truth is of utmost importance but if there are more people offering the same as us it is as simple as searching their Tags and seeing which ones can serve us.
GIG Prices
We can really put the price we consider for our services no matter what we put that if. Take into account that nobody will pay 300$ for our service if someone does it for 5$ and has a better rating, that is if we can put the minimum as value is 5$ so it is good if we do not know what price to place at the beginning. We can offer "Service Packages" with different prices as well as extras to make additional charges to the packages in case the client requires it. For example if we draw and they want it in color we can put an additional charge of 2$ for example.
The price and the different options when performing the service depends on one. Since in the case that I show is a menu for writing articles, but varies according to the category and subcategory that we choose. Above all it is important that we define well the time since some can be freelancer full time and others only at a moment of the day. Therefore the delivery time I recommend placing it quite loose so later not to be with pressures.
Description and FAQ of the GIG
The description is something that although some do not believe is important, it isIT IS VERY IMPORTANTto specify how far we will go because I say it. Because if we do not say exactly what we are going to do it can be left to interpretations and a real problem in the future, when we have a client asking for something that we assumed we did not have to do.
Another no less important part is the FAQ or First Any Question. They are the questions that they always ask us since it is simpler to take it to this section and thus avoid recurring questions from potential clients.
Client Requirements
If we need the client at the time of purchase to give us something there is a section where we can request it during the purchase. So that once we receive the request we have everything necessary to start working. Since our time is valuable and the client's time too this section gives us all the necessary so that we can make requests from the beginning.
Gallery
With everything above completed nothing more we need to place an image which represents us at the moment of appearing between searches. We can also place a PDF or a Video if it is necessary to show the skills of our service.
We publish our First GIG
Once finished and with everything ready before our first GIG sees all clients on Fiverr. The same will request as a security measure to verify our phone number but once verified we will be ready to receive orders.
¿Como cobramos lo que generamos en Fiverr?
There are two methods mainly which I will explain. One of them is excellent for people who live in areas where Paypal verification is impossible like Venezuela.
Payment Methods:
- Paypal:this is the most common method that can only be done with verified paypal accounts. So if you have a verified paypal it is a good option but if not, it is not at all good.
- Payoneer: The most useful method if you are in Venezuela or in some place where you cannot verify your paypal account. Payoneer is a company that is responsible for issuingcredit cards prepaidto all parts of the world. So by registering we can request ours to easily collect our money from Fiverr and spend it wherever we want as if it were any credit card. That said, the minimum charge is 5$ but if the base GIGs are worth 5$ it is quite easy to collect them from the first moment.
¿Puedo trabajar en Fiverr desde Venezuela?
Yes,Fiverr is an incredibly good option forearn money from Venezuela.This is due to the fact that we can offer services of practically anything, so with a little imagination andPayoneer for us to be able to make paymentswithout having to complicate ourselves using Paypal. We can from Venezuelaearn money on the Internetincredibly efficiently. Especially when we have some skill in which we excel or have ingenuity when offering services that people may need.
