5. INTRODUCTION
Congratulations! You have just taken the first step toward
becoming a profitable use of Fiverr. Having knowledge is
useless unless you are willing to act on the knowledge you have;
buying this book is the first action you have taken toward
applying knowledge to your success!
You are likely wondering why this book is different from other
information about Fiverr you have heard before. The methods in
this book are related to using only one kind of service which
converts to another, more valuable, use which runs without
much effort from you. Curious yet?
Your goal is to make money through minimal effort and
replication. If you examine the system in place closely, you will
find several opportunities to do this.
If you are looking for motivational speeches or fancy wordplay,
you are looking in the wrong place. This book will get straight
into the specific actions you will need to take to earn money. If
having a specific plan of action isn’t enough to make you begin
to work, you may be in the wrong place.

6. SO WHAT IS FIVERR ANYWAY?
I assume that since you bought this book, you already know
something about Fiverr. However, some of you may have
picked this book up out of curiosity, without any prior
knowledge, so let me take a moment to fill you in. Fiverr is a
web-based marketplace that allows users to buy and sell services
for $5. Anyone can create a listing for a small service on the site
or purchase a service. The fixed price for any job is $5. A buyer
orders services and is required to pay for it in advance.
Services are placed into categorized by Funny and Bizarre,
Social Marketing, Graphics, Writing, Technology, Business,
Silly Stuff, and Programming. There is a place for buyer
feedback on the people who provide services, which helps
others buyers choose which vendors to purchase services from.
One dollar from each sale goes to Fiverr, meaning the vendor
(you) make $4 per task. When most people hear about Fiverr,
their initial response is skepticism. They either don’t believe you
can actually make money at it, or they make fun of the people
who do. Unfortunately, this lack of vision will prevent them
from being successful on the site.
Think about it for a minute, though. How many successful dollar
stores are there in your community and in other communities

7. across America? How much money has McDonald’s made over
the years? The key to success isn’t the size of the sale you make,
but how many sales you make and what the profit margin of
each one is.
I have noticed that there are many jobs on Fiverr that have been
listed for a long time with no orders. Others may make enough
to enjoy an evening out a couple of times of month. However, I
have also noticed that 15-20% of the jobs listed can make
hundreds, or even thousands, of dollars per month.
Of the 15-20% who are very successful, about 1% is WILDLY
successful, earning several thousand per month. The purpose of
this book is to teach you to methods of that 1%. There are plenty
of tips and tricks to help you achieve that level of success.
Once we have covered the best way to earn as a Fiverr seller, we
will look to earnings as a Fiverr outsourcer, examining several
methods for outsourcing. That is where the real money can be
earned!
A key principal as a seller or reseller on Fiverr is to generate
multiple income streams. Later in the book, we will go into
specifics about what that means and how to do it. First,
however, we need to examine how to earn money as a regular
seller/vendor. There are several basic rules you must apply to
see success.

8. THE RULES
1. You MUST upload a video for each listing you post.
This is probably the most important rule of them all.
Including a video makes a huge difference to the success
of your listing. In your videos, be entertaining and
engaging. This will make you memorable to the buyers.
There are many, many listings on Fiverr. Some of them
may even be better deals than yours. However, if you
provide a video that is clear, to the point, and
memorable, you are much more likely to get sales.
Speaking well and using humor will increase the
likelihood of getting a sale by about 75%.
You should also mention Fiverr.com at least once time.
Moderators watch every video uploaded, and having
more than one mention of Fiverr in your video makes it
more likely that they will place you on the first page.
2. Make sure your title is creative and eye-catching.
Which title would you be more likely to click on: “I will
sing a song for $5” or “PROFESSIONAL song by an
amazing singer for $5”?

9. Be sure to use active verbs to say what you will do and
include descriptive words.
Fiverr has a policy that only one word in a title may be
in all caps. Choose the word you want to capitalize
carefully. You are trying to catch the eye of the buyer.
For jobs you can do quickly, add “Within 24 hours” to
your title. Sales should increase by 10-20% for this
added perk.
3. Use a custom picture on your listing.
Fiverr requires you to upload a picture about the job you
are listing, in addition to a video. Before posting a
listing, use Photoshop, or even Paint, to create your own
picture instead of using a generic picture you find online.
Taking the time to customize will help set you apart
from the people who just found some clip art online. If
you can’t create something that looks professional for
yourself, consider asking a friend to help you or even use
Fiverr to find someone who can do it!
4. Make sure your description is specific and well-written.
When you write a description, make sure you include all
the details of the job, instead of just making a general
statement. This is your sales pitch; you want to explain

10. what makes your service better than the next guy’s, what
exactly is involved in the service, and what the features
are. The more professional you sound, the more likely
you are to get a customer, so make sure you check your
grammar and spelling. Even though buyers are only
spending $5, they still don’t want to throw it away. If
you take a little extra time to make sure your description
is articulate and detailed, you will attract more buyers.
5. Be an individual!
It is unlikely that you will be the only one posting a
particular service on the site. So how do you stand out
from the crowd? Figure out what makes you unique.
DON’T try to copy someone else who is successful on
Fiverr; instead do one of the following things:
a. Show the buyer that your service is better than the
others and better to buy.
b. Make sure you use the first four rules to stand out!
If you consistently use the first four rules, even a service
that isn’t particularly special will stand out from the rest
and should bring in customers daily.
6. List at least 20 services at once.
Fiverr limits each vendor to a maximum of 20 listings at
a time. If you don’t post at least that many, you are not
maximizing your profit potential. Get creative and come

11. up with 20 things you are willing to do for $5. Even if
some of them only get one or two orders weekly, you
have established multiple income streams. (Remember
that from the introduction?)
A listing that only brings in $8 per week is generating
$32 a month and just over $400 a year. Multiply this by
20…you just made over $8000 in extra cash!
Remember, too, that every listing brings traffic to your
page profile, meaning that your other listings will be
seen by more people!
Another possibility is having more than one account on
Fiverr. If you have two accounts, you can post up to 40
listings, and so on.
Make sure to list services in more than one category for
maximum exposure. If you are seen in multiple
categories, once again, you are driving more traffic to
your profile. More traffic = more orders = more money!
These six rules MUST be applied to every listing you post. Just
doing these things should help you earn $1200-$2000 per month
just from direct sales on Fiverr. Not bad for a minimum of effort
on your part!

12. SUGGESTIONS FOR GIGS
Graphic design is a popular gig on Fiverr. Even if you don’t
have any graphic design experience, you can make some cash.
Offer to create a 3D e-cover for anything the customer wants.
Then go to http://www.myecovermaker.com, a site that lets you
create that very thing with only a few mouse clicks. The site
requires you to create an account which charges either a
monthly fee or a one-time download fee. If you do several of
these per month, you should more than make back what you pay
for the subscription.
Offer to create a social media profile for an individual or a
company. It doesn’t even take 5 minutes to create a profile and
upload a company logo, so you are getting a pretty good profit
margin. Then you can offer additional products or services on
top of profile creation, such as uploading photos, writing
captions, making regular posts, etc. You can make the same
offer for creating a YouTube channel or a Facebook fanpage.
Be sure to look at the “suggest gigs” listed on the right side of
the Fiverr homepage. This is where people post when they are
looking for someone to do a specific job. You can pick up a few
of these a month without taking away from the 20 gigs you
already have listed.

13. If you already have a blog or a website that gets a lot of traffic,
you can offer to sell advertising space on the site for $5 for a
specified amount of time. You can do this through Adspace if
you like. Be sure you are prepared to show proof and details
about the traffic on your blog or site. This will often make a
difference in whether a customer chooses you or the next guy.
Offer to write articles for $5. There are lots of people making
this offer, so make yourself stand out by including a link to your
portfolio. The only down side to this kind of gig is the amount
of time it takes to do it. Figure out how many articles you could
write in an hour and multiply times $4. That is what you are
earning hourly with this gig. Compared to other gigs, it might
require more work for less revenue.
RUNNING ON AUTOPILOT
Ultimately, you want to design your listings to make money for
you without additional effort on your part. That’s called running
on autopilot. So how do you make that happen?
First locate a good PLR product. (If you are new to the field,
you may not know what that is. PLR stands for Private Label
Rights. It means when you buy the product or article initially,
you are also buying the right to resell it under your own name,
without referring back to the original creator.) Make sure you
choose a high quality product. There are several websites which

14. provide lists of these products, so take some time to browse
around and find something of good quality. A little extra time at
this point will pay off in the long run. Try one of these sites:
http://www.PLRAssassin.com (this site charges a small
fee for access)
http://www.indigialworks.com (completely free access)
http://www.plrstore.com (also completely free access)
You will have to invest a little money in the products initially,
but you will quickly recoup what you spent if you choose
wisely.
Once you have chosen some PLR products, create a gig on
Fiverr to sell them.
RESEARCH MATTERS
Before choosing your products, do a little research to determine
what type of products sell the best. On the Fiverr homepage,
filter the listings by popularity. That means the top selling
products will be at the top of the list.
You will likely see that people who are willing to promote
products or websites on Twitter are very popular…meaning that
people are willing to pay for that service.

15. Go to the PLR sites and do a search for material related to
Twitter. It may be software or an eBook, but if it something that
teaches people how to promote something via Twitter, it will be
likely to sell.
CREATING A BUYER LIST
Once you list your product on Fiverr, make sure you use a
landing page with an opt-in form. This will give every customer
immediate access to the product (with no effort on your part!)
by registering on the site. The information they enter will
automatically go into a buyer list, once again with no effort on
your part! Having a buyer list means you can notify these people
when you offer new gigs. Repeat customers are always a plus!
Always ask a customer to leave feedback. Positive feedback
means more customers. It is worth it to refund someone’s
money to avoid negative feedback.
When a customer registers, set it up so they are redirected to a
One Time Offer Page which presents the buyer with a related
product they may also be interested in. Be sure to create a large
package for an incredible price, so it would be crazy not to buy
it. For example, you might package a group of 3-5 eBooks
related to Social Networking or Internet Marketing for $10 (or
even less). The key is to pack a huge amount of value into a
small price. The customer is already in buying mode, so there is
a high probability that he will buy the OTO as well.

16. That means instead of making $4 per sale, you are actually
making $14, assuming your OTO is $10. Each product should
make at least one package sale per week, or $56 per month. If
you list 20 different products, that is $1120 per month with no
effort from you after the initial setup. (There are also other
“microjob” sites where you can create exactly the same listing
again for even more revenue!)
In addition, you are adding 100 new names to your buyer’s list
per month, just from Fiverr. You can then use this list to market
other products outside of Fiverr, if you desire.
OUTSOURCING
Using the 6 rules to make money on your listings is a great way
to make extra money, but if you are interested in making BIG
money, you need to learn about outsourcing. Some internet
marketers are now making thousands a month through Fiverr
selling and outsourcing.
There are five methods that will help you make some serious
money. The step by step instructions for these methods are next!
Method #1: Twitter and ClickBank
ClickBank is a website that allows you to sign up to promote
products for other people to earn income, referred to as affiliate

17. marketing. If you are unfamiliar with ClickBank, go check it out
before reading further.
Now that you know at least a little about ClickBank, let’s talk
about how you can be a legitimate Fiverr outsourcer.
Step 1: Choose a product on ClickBank that can be
easily promoted to the general public.
Step 2: Copy the affiliate link provided; then go to bi.ly
to make a shortened version of the link.
Step 3: Copy and paste the shortened link.
Step 4: Visit the “Social Marketing” section on Fiverr
and look for listings like “I will tweet to my 10,000
followers for $5” or something similar. Purchase about 5
of these.
Step 5: Send the vendor the shortened URL with a
promo phrase like “WOW! Can’t believe how much
weight I lost thanks to bit.ly/55555.” (Change this to fit
whatever product you chose.) The vendors will send this
link and phrase to all their followers.
Step 6: Watch the money flow! A single sale may bring
in hundreds of dollars and you have spent only $25 to
make it happen!

18. Method #2: Facebook Likes
Facebook Likes are a hot commodity. Many people on Fiverr
will provide Facebook Likes for far less than market value. For
example, there are websites that will sell 1000 FB Likes for $80,
but on Fiverr there are vendors who will give you 500 FB Likes
for $5. That shows that there is a definite profit margin.
Find a domain name that is related to Facebook Fans or
Facebook Likes. Use a basic Wordpress template to set up a
basic site explaining that your company does Facebook
marketing. Set your cost (above $5) and set up your website.
Your website should generate several hundred dollars per week.
After 2-3 months of a profitable website, you can list the
website on Flipa and sell it. You will likely be able to sell it for
several thousand dollars. Just be sure to reinvest most of the
money back into you IM career!
Method #3: Backlinks
There are tons of gigs on Fiverr offering to submit your website
or blog to search engines and to create backlinks. Google loves
backlinks, so spending a little money here should more than
payoff in results from increased traffic to your site, where you
can sell visitors your products. WARNING: Be sure you ask for
proof that the vendor actually did what they said and get contact
details before sending your $5.

19. Method #4: Facebook Statuses
In one example, a vendor has offered to post a link to your site 3
times on their Facebook page. That doesn’t sound like much
until you realize the vendor has 82K fans on his page. You
should see a definite improvement in your traffic from this one!
You can also ask them to post an affiliate link for ClickBank.
You can do all sorts of creative things to increase sales on your
other sites like this, without having to do anything yourself!
Method #5: Graphic Design and Video
In the Graphics section of Fiverr, you will commonly find logos,
templates and banners. If you buy them, then mark them up
anywhere from $5 to $500 and resell them to larger companies
by being able to deliver quickly. A big money maker is selling
short video clips made on Adobe AfterEffects to clients for $500
or more. You should be able to get 3-4 clients a month for these
videos.
Graphics and logos can be sold for over $150 each. They are
easier to resell than the videos, and also have a great markup.
Create a basic website and use SEO techniques to get good
rankings.
(Since this book is about Fiverr, I won’t go into great detail
about how to do this. I am assuming that you probably already
know these basics.)

20. Method #6: YouTube Subscription Sales
This is the same idea as the Facebook Likes. Use the same
method, but when you sell the website on Flippa, you can expect
a much higher return, especially if you can show good profit for
6 months.
Method #7: Testimonial Agency
A very creative way to use the wealth of talent on Fiverr is to
create your own Testimonial Agency, using the people who
offer to make video testimonials for $5. You create a company
that will offer to provide companies with dozens of video
testimonials tailored to their product or service at a bulk price.
You can charge as little as $300 or as much as $800 for this,
depending on how many testimonials they need.
Method #8: Art
Again in the Graphics section of Fiverr, find a graphic designer
who will create a piece of vector art for $5. (It is very important
that it be VECTOR, so you can resize the piece without losing
resolution and clarity.) Some designers specialize in one type of
art (mascot design/characters, for example), but many will offer
more variety.
When you buy the digital piece from the designer, you also buy
the copyright. That means that you can replicate the piece in any
way you desire. You can make much more money through

21. replication than through selling the piece to a company at a
marked up price.
The value of art is only what a buyer sees in it. If you present it
correctly, you should see a good return on it in many forms. You
can sell it in the form of t-shirts and other clothing, mugs,
posters, calendars, magnets, or as a framed print. Let you
imagination run wild!
Be sure to ask for vector files or high res raster files, so you can
blow up the piece to any size you need.
You can set up an online shop and upload your designs on
several websites with very little trouble. Try
http://shop.carepress.com
http://www.greatincarduniverse.com/BEDiczhazy
http://www.zazzle.com/dndartstudio
to start.
How do you decide what kind of design to do? Obviously, you
want something that will sell easily. Parody is often popular and
a good way to get started. Under parody, you can legally sell
images that refer to and use famous people (for example, a
caricature). Just do your homework to make sure there is a
current demand for the topic and that you are not breaking any
copyright laws.

22. If you use a person’s image which is not parody, you are
infringing on copyright law. Parody is fun, which people want,
and doesn’t break the law. As an added bonus, many of the
graphic designers on Fiverr are very good at it!
Framed prints are usually higher priced items, so think about
targeting a specific niche with a framed print. Buy a variety of
images from the designers on Fiverr so that you can have a
variety of items to choose from in your store.
One of the most important things to consider with this method is
what kind of images are trending currently. If your images are
not currently hot, they won’t sell well. Work on tapping into
fads.
Method #9: Ebay and other auction sites
Once you have products to sell, you can venture onto sites such
as ebay. Copy the preview images from your store on
cafepress.com or zazzle.com so you can show them as products
that are ready to ship.
You can grab your images off the site in one of two ways. First,
try right clicking on the image and choosing “save image as…”.
Some sites don’t allow this method, so you will need to open the
site, and then press “prt scr” to take a screenshot. Then crop the
image to the portion of the page you need using a graphics
program and upload it to ebay or another auction site.

23. If you use Windows 7, you can also use the snipping tool to
capture the image from your online shop.
This can be advantageous because your product isn’t buried in a
huge list of other products that are very similar.
When you receive orders, simply enter a personal order on the
manufacturer’s website and enter an alternative delivery
address.
Method #10: Sell PLR reports
Reports addressing problems in the health, wealth, and
relationships niches are the most likely reports to sell. You can
check out some of the reports on Tradebit.com for ideas.
Buy a few that seem to answer a common problem, such as
weight loss (always a popular topic). Then create a listing that
promises to help solve that problem for $5.
For example, you might say, “I will send you dozens of
SECRET recipes that will help you lose weight fast!”
When you receive an order, simply attach the file in the Fiverr
delivery screen and send it off.

24. CONCLUSION
So this book doesn’t force a Tony Robbins motivational speech
down your throat, but it does give you the specific steps you can
take to start earning money on Fiverr.
You will have to invest a few dollars and a little time into
Fiverr, especially at the beginning, but you should see it pay off
if you follow these suggestions.
Internet Marketing isn’t easy, but as long as you keep at it, you
should see a return. By using the methods in this book and your
own creativity, they sky is the limit! The hardest part has been
done and put in this book, so get out there and start making
money!
