In level 1 you can do everything you can at the basic level but with level 1 status
you will have earnt the right to boost your income by the ability to offer “extras”
with your gigs, and this is where you can really start to boost your income.
To attain level 1 status, fiverr stipulates that you need to have been a member for
30 days and have completed at least 10 sales with “A great track record” – for
this read 100% feedback and no delivery problems such as rejected deliveries or
redeliveries.
Once you have hit these targets you should get upgraded automatically, however
if you’ve not got an automatic upgrade and feel you should have then write to
customer services and don’t be afraid to ask for one. They are human and a
nicely worded letter should result in the right outcome should you have met the
above criteria.
Once you reach level one status then you can: -‐
• Allow people to order multiple units of your gig, up to four.
• You can charge for “extra fast” service (Note this doesn’t have to be 1 day
or 12 hours – as an example your normal service may be 7 days and you
might opt to charge for “extra fast” in 2 days).
• You can offer up to 2 “extras” per gig and charge either $5, $10 or $20 for
each of these extras. You can also add extra time on for carrying out the
extras or select “no extra time needed”.
TIP: The “extras” show up below your gig description as tick boxes, and people
tend to miss them, so make sure that you highlight the extras you offer in the gig
description and highlight the fact that they are shown below the gig description.
This will result in more extra’s being sold.
People can’t / won’t order them if they don’t scan down the page – Think they
will? After all they will love your gig so much they’re bound to scroll down right?
Wrong! Think again, as statistically 70% of all website visitors never scroll down
the page beyond what they first see on screen. Worrying, but true!
