They call him Mr Rapper

Hey Fiverrtastic Readers
Do you need an original gig, but you haven't been able to find one. Are all those other rapping gigs well just mediocre. Try ordering from mrrapper he is what I like to refer to as the U.K's version of Eminem. (If they had one) He's a rapper who's got the skill, but no one wants to take him seriously. He had over 120,000 youtube views on a video for a a song called "Let's Get Funky"By Master RS and Lyfe Martinez. He started selling gigs on Fiverr about 2 months ago and he is already a level 1 seller. He has 20 different gigs to choose from and pretty much anything to suit your fancy. Mrrapper's gigs are original, innovative, and creative. Something that Fiverr buyers look for is someone who can give them a wow for their buck. One of his most popular gigs right now is that he will do a UK ghetto rant about anything you want wether it be promoting your business/site/occassion etc or funny,angry,sad etc for 50 seconds for $5.I'm all for the rant videos. People that do rant videos are entertaining. But someone who does one from Nottingham in his ghetto jacuzzi...now that's hardcore! Nottingham is literally referred to as the gun capitol. He asks that if you order his ghetto rant and want it done in his ghetto Jacuzzi that you place 6 extra gig orders. this will keep him from getting shot in his ghetto. ;)

This seller can rap too. I looked him up on youtube and honestly he should pursue his music career again. Check out one of his videos below:

Ok, Heres a suggestion I have for you mrrapper, keep pursuing your music. Don't listen to what the critics have to say if people are hating their listening. I would also suggest for your Fiverr gigs you work on trying to build a list of contacts. Keep in contact with sellers who buy repeatedly and start making friends with other Fiverr sellers. I have met a ton of Fiverr friends just by the use of social media. Having friendships with other Fiverr sellers can help you a lot later on. it's always good to have friends everywhere and with the Fiverr community we forget that we have 1000's of other sellers at our fingertips. They can help you in more ways than you can imagine. You should even check out the Fiverr seller group on Linkedin and some of the groups and pages on Facebook. They can help you with selling technique and help advertise your gig. I promote my gigs on on Fiverr pages every now and then.


Here is another video mrrapper did

 


Until next time Fiverrtastic readers check out mrrapper. He will create an awesome gig for you. Have a Fiverrtastic day.

Make Money by the Click of a Mouse

Hey Fiverrtastic Readers,
Have you ever thought to yourself "Wow there has got to be some way of making money online just by giving my opinion". Survey companies and secret shopper companies like Bigspot for example pay good money just for a valued customer opinion. I found this seller named Jerome who's still brand new to selling to Fiverr. His Fiverr username is wbsrdtv and he will give You 20 Of The Best Sites To Do Paid Surveys And Offers for $5. I myself don't do paid survey sites, but I have heard that promotions and surveys pay pretty good. I guess I'm just one for the art of staying old fashioned. For the longest time I didn't even want to do online freelancing until I found Fiverr. Everyone's always trying to look for their holy grail of internet wealth and I have to say I've watched videos on clickbank promotions and If you want to take the time to find the right offers and promotions this may be up your alley. The whole concept behind survey and referral marketing is how many friends you have. I'm not saying surveys, offers, and promotions are for everyone; just for people looking for something a little different. I think that if there was just a few more gigs like this, offered by this seller maybe people might have some interest.

 wbsrdtv you have a great gig and you have some amazing enthusiasm for the business. Start up a few more gigs. You're still fresh at selling people will order if they like the product. Secondly, don't get discouraged because there are over 1 million gigs on Fiverr. try joining some of the groups or pages onFacebook. Also, if you haven't already take advantage of the Fiverr group on Linkedin. It's designed for Fiverr sellers of all levels. Also, you can learn a lot just by checking out Fiverr's official Facebook page too if you haven't already. Remember when you do start getting orders start saving up some of the money and use it for something worthwhile. Don't be like the illustration below.

One thing we as Fiverr sellers do when we become a Fiverr buyer or just a buyer for that matter, we just don't realize that the next round of transactions could be days or as long as that 2 weeks. That is depending on when we handed in the gig and when it got marked as complete. Soooo, if you're a seller like me who has a 5-10 day lead time, gets a large amount of sales, and the orders get completed by the deadline, it takes damn near a month before you see that money. Don't let money burn a hole in your pocket. To some Fiverr sellers, this is considered like a 2nd job. So all I can say is this wbsrdtv, if you're driven and focused you can pretty much do anything here on Fiverr!

 If you haven't voted for your favorite timeline banner go to Fiverrtastic Facebook page now and vote. We're going to be letting people know soon about the launch of the .com version of Fiverrtastic. We plan on expanding so the blog can be even better and so Fiverr sellers can advertise on the site. Until next time Fiverrtastic readers, have a Fiverrtastic day. :)

Fiverr Support Can Be Your best Friend

Hey Fiverrtastic Readers,
I wanted to discuss Fiverr Support in a special blog of their own again for a second time. I haven't discussed their amazing services in awhile and it's long overdue. I'll keep it short and sweet because I want to do a blog on Chinelope too. Ok, so I had a customer cancel a gig they ordered, but they cancelled it wrong. Based on the circumstances it was wrong because they didn't understand how to cancel. This customer wants to become a long term customer and order short stories for her sandal website which has a blog that accompanies it. Her blog is still in the process and she has more than one writer doing the blog. So when she ordered the second story off me she was overwhelmed by the amount of stuff she had going on. She cancelled, but she cancelled due to a late order, when she didn't give me the full details until 2 or 3 days after the order was placed. She also didn't know cancelling a late order would hurt my rating because my gig was still new and hadn't had too many completed orders yet.

So, this is where Jenny from Fiverr Customer Support literally saved the day! She voided out the cancel and made it a mutual cancellation. I couldn't help the situation, my computer went up and I was without a computer a few days and the customer didn't understand cancelling procedures. I was amazed at how quickly they handled the situation and how thoroughly they handled it with care. They actually understood that it was not my fault that my computer went up and I was inundated with multiple orders at the same time and having a lot of writing gigs back to back to back was just overwhelming in the first place. It's really amazing how if you write a detailed message explaining your situation, Fiverr Support will go the extra mile to help whenever they can. Don't be afraid to ask! Those who don't ask, are complaining for no reason. So just make sure that anytime you contact them you're courteous, the question or comment is detailed, and make sure that it's all filled out right. Until next time readers have a Fiverrtastic day!
peace out everyone,
**Josh**

A New Milestone For Fiverrtastic

Hey Fiverrtastic Readers,
We will be reaching 10,000 views after today so I decided to do something special. As promised I ordered off professor puppet. He's not new to Fiverr, but he's new to Fiverrtastic, and I should have featured his talent the first month or two on Fiverrtastic. But, I wanted to make his appearance special. So I decided, how could I make it special. I thought either the 100th blog or the 10,000th view. Well, we have reached 114 blogs,  so I decided to do the 10k views idea. I have a lot more ideas. Especially when Fiverrtastic turns a year old I want to go big! Professor puppet has been on Fiverr for over a year, he's a top rated seller, and he has had 1422 positive sales on the Professor Hans Von Puppet gig alone. He has also had 281 positive reviews on his other puppet gig he has too. This guy has sheer talent! I was thoroughly impressed by the video he sent me. Mark, thank you so much! I honestly think that if you want an amazing advertisement video or video for a greeting for someone else this is the perfect video. He does amazing videos for birthday, holidays, and for cheering people up. When I was in a Fiverr chat group he made a Christmas video for a fellow group member and I was so impressed by the thought and simplicity that went into it. He had the professor singing her a christmas song in a silky robe. It was so cute! Professor puppet is one Fiverr seller who should not be missed. He has been featured in yahoo news, Fiverr asks him to do projects when they roll out new features, he's been featured in music videos, and you may recognize him from snickers comercials. Before doing Fiverr the professor was a character in big time commercials. Just look up the videos "A Good Snickering" and "Poker Party" you can find them quite easily through youtube.  He's also done a best buy commercial. I don't want to put them up for copyright puposes.

Professor puppet I don't have much to offer for suggestions or nuggets of Fiverrtastic knowledge. I'm a level 2 and your top rated. You've done way more gigs than me too and have a lot more experience in the video production side of things. I just do writing and graphic design. Your puppets are amazing and I wouldn't change them. The professor is doing a great job and the younger version is doing great too for people who want something different. The only thing I could possibly think of is a gig where the 2 squabble back and forth or have a dialogue, kind of like Rin and Michelle do on thier rinandkagura account. It would require a shorter script and people would order more than 1 or 2 gigs at a time which some probably do already.

Check out the video he made me below:

Fiverrtastic will be putting the facebook timeline banner contest to a close on sunday, so if you haven't voted please do so. This contest is not going to be the only contest either. I have a testimonial contest coming up. So if you think you can be the next person to represent Fiverrtastic well I will explain the details again tomorrow. Until next time have a Fiverrtastic Day!

Drawn To Life

Hey Fiverrtastic Readers,
Ok so I ordered something a little different from a seller by the username of achillesian for a friend as a memorial gift for his family and myself. When I say memorial of course I mean he died. I still think of him all the time because I shared art classes with him in my junior and senior year. It's only been a short period of time yet it feels like forever. When someone passes you feel like they're still around and like you'll bump into them on the street. I still feel like I feel his presence everytime I listen to Kings of Leon or Sublime. The Fiverr seller achillesian was able to bring Derek's picture to life and his mom even wrote me back saying that "it brought tears to her eyes, yet made her smile." To have someone write back and literally be impressed by the gift you give them is amazing. To have 12 likes for the picture the first few hours of posting the picture is also amazing. I think achillesian did an awsome job. the gig i ordered was I will draw a portrait from a photo for $5. This seller literally transformed the photo into a drawn masterpiece!

This is the photo I sent:

I contacted the seller and they asked me to buy the portrait gig because it didn't have any ratings yet and it had a quicker lead time. I got the order back in just over a day when I didn't expect it for 3 to 5 days. The seller did an amazing job because I was only a few days late for his birthday. I didn't get to go to the celebration because I had graphic design gigs to work on and other things i had to do that day. But I know Derek would have understood. Fiverr seller achillesian you did an amazing job. You kept the spirit of a friend and family member alive. Kudos to you.

This is the picture that was drawn and sent back to me. It is so hauntingly similiar I almost wanted to cry. May Derek's memory live on through the spirit of art and photos that we all have.

achillesian I have just a few suggestions for you. First off, you should offer gig extras on the gigs that have a high enough percentage. for God's sake man you can make an extra $5 or $10 offering color to people's picture. Believe me people would order colored pencil or marker colored sketches. You should also offer different types of art or digital art gigs. Believe me the more gigs you sell the more potential you have to earn money. You have skill don't knock it.

Until next time everyone have a Fiverrtastic Day Everyone.

(In Memory of Derek Burns. RIP)

Please Serenade Me a Song

Hey Fiverrtastic Readers,
I found an amazing gig on Fiverr where a seller will turn-your-poem-into-an-acoustic-song . This seller is amazing because any poem you send literally comes to life. The sellers username is john_florez. So if you have a poem and want it to become a song send it to him and he will turn it into a song. He has had 55 positive orders on that gig along and he is a level 2 seller. He is a musician and most of his gigs are music related. He has 11 gigs and  7 out of 11 of them have had orders. He is rated 100% too, so you can tell he tries get his customers to give him positive ratings on every order.

john_florez I have just one suggestion. Maybe you should find a way to advertise the gigs that have no ratings. It's hard to get orders sometimes on a gig with no ratings, but if you can just get on order then sometimes orders come flooding in. I think you have some amazing gigs and I wish you the best of luck.


The Fiverrtastic Facebook timeline wall cover contest is almost coming to a close. Vote for yours now today. Oh and Fiverr sellers who read Fiverrtastic don't forget I have a testimonial contest coming up. I will write another blog later today. Until next time have a Fiverrtastic day.

New contest on the horizon.

Hey Fiverrtastic readers,
As you all know Fiverrtastic will be reaching 10,000 views soon. I already have Professor Puppet lined up for the job. But, it will also be turning 6 months old at the begining of August. How cool is that! Ok, well here's what I want to throw out there to all the Fiverr sellers out there. I want to have a best video testimonial contest. If you do video testimonials and want to be featured on Fiverrtastic or have already been featured and want to be featured again heres your chance. Send me a video testimonial something very simple between 15-30 seconds telling me why you like Fiverrtastic. It will show people your talent and get you some exposure. The winner will get a gig bought by me, a 2 part blog series on their gigs, and will be featured weekly on the Fiverrtastic Facebook Fanpage for 2 months. Does it sound like a good contest? Fair enough rules? The winner will be determined by your peers on the Fiverrtastic Facebook Fanpage. The contest will not start until Monday July 30th so you got plenty of time. Ok so put your thinking caps on. Back to work for me I got some gigs to go work on. Have a Fiverrtastic day!
