    As an Afghan girl, I was banned from attending university after graduating from high school in 2022. Despite trying to learn different skills at home, life can be disappointing when thinking I have no right to work. However, while searching for videos on how to work online, I came across your channel and learned about Fiverr. I'm really excited to try it and see if I can make money there. So, wish me good luck. 🥺❤

    I totally agree - I'm on the Upwork side of things (haven't "cracked" Fiverr myself - honestly could be a fun collab idea if you'd be up for that 😜) but I always say while yes ofc there's more "competition", it's not all "good competition", as many people are just putting the bare minimum effort into it. Plus, there's also a lot more clients nowadays, especially after covid - everyone and their mom has an online biz now that needs help in one way or another. It's just a matter of positioning yourself in the right way as "THE ONE" that can solve their problems!

    @AlexanderFasuloBiz - I watch pretty much all your videos and because I know that everything won't work for everyone and you have to diversify, this has been one of the biggest takeaways I've learned from you .. I believe you were fortunate to hop on this before it was big and took off and you've already established a following and clientele - with all that said, I'm still going to set up my profiles and give it a try - I also know, there are many other ways to freelance and make money :) I'm all in - I just don't want to go back to the traditional 9 to 5 - I'm actually watching your new journey in real estate, which is exactly why I became an Esthetician so I can have more control over the money I make and I've already started looking into the rural dept. of agriculture loans you talked about... thank you for the inspiration and motivation!!!

    Okay. I am a reporter of 20+ years. I've also been doing a little content writing this year. I have not been able to get a full-time job for two and a half years. I've been doing all kinds of weird things that don't pay enough to support myself like substitute teaching and trying to sell insurance. I think I should try to join Upwork and Fiverr. I have no clue how people make six figures. Writers don't get paid that much, according to Upwork, top is $50, and it takes 10%, and you have to spend the time to find work. Fiverr looks like it's nickels and dimes, and it takes 20%. $50 an hour is adequate pay for a job, but this is freelancing, and you need to charge more to offset costs. What happens exactly? What do you do to make six figures? I see that reporters are earning more than $100k, which is surprising. I sure didn't. But I'm kind of old, and a woman, and nobody will hire me. And that seems to be that.

    Can two people (husband and wife) both have a Fiverr account without getting banned? We are both trying to launch a freelancing business, but want to be sure it is allowed. You seem so knowledgeable, so I thought you might know if we both can have an account. I can't find the answer in the rules.

    I'm actually wondering if it's still worth it with the new rating system (and not because of AI)?
    I wonder if it's becoming corporatized like all other businesses, and making it harder for upcoming freelancers, and only the ones who are already established can continue to profit.
    Like many others I saw in your Facebook group, my level got demoted with the update. This does not appear Freelancer friendly, more like a corporate decision.

    I do have a few questions for you.
    I would really like to start advertising a multitude of services on fiverr and they are not necessarily related to each other.
    Is it best to create several different accounts or offer different kinds of services under one account?
    Also, being brand new, Do you need a website to show that you are legitimate? Or is that not necessary?

    • @AlexandraFasuloBiz

    Hi, I'm new to Fiver and would like to go into video editing and other stuff around that. I wanted to know how I would not get scammed. As far as I know, Fiver has a 14-day policy for the buyer to say they don't like the product and request a refund.
    Also, if they request that they pay before hand but send the video of what I made for them, would you recommend sending a watermark version first to make sure everything is alright and getting written proof that they like it in case they scam me, to be able to show to Fiver as proof, or would I just send the full finished video without a watermark?
