About This Class

Have you tried making a Fiverr gig but got ZERO results? 

Or maybe you've just put it off and never got it LAUNCHED? 

Well - not today! Because I'm going to walk you STEP BY STEP through creating a Fiverr gig that ACTUALLY SELLS! 

My name's Ryan and I went from charging $40 for simple videos, to charging $1,000 + per video, I achieved Top Seller in just over 2 years and made over $50,000 in my second year on Fiverr, starting with ZERO EXPERIENCE!

Not only that - but I created a SECOND consulting Gig using the same techniques I teach in this course to generate another stream of income, allowing me to sell my knowledge for $150 + per hour on zoom calls!

And I'm going to teach you EXACTLY how to do the same in this course! 

This isn't a long, boring, Fiverr course 

This is more like a mini masterclass in MARKETING yourself as a Freelancer 

There are 6 Fundamental Steps to creating a Fiverr gig, and in this course I will talk you through EACH STEP in a detailed video, and give you an ACTION TASK to take at the end of each one 

You will fill out a Google Document I've already created for you after each section - so you both LEARN, and put in to IMMEDIATE ACTION 

The reason most people don't succeed is they do not finish what they start (including me), and I've created this course to be different 

Not only will you end up with a REUSABLE - Perfect Gig Template, fully filled in and ready to go

But you will also learn:

  • How to charge based on the value you provide 
  • How to attract and close clients on Social Media 
  • My inbound messaging service 
  • Simple copywriting skills that you can use on ANY platform 
  • AND - how to LEAD interactions so clients trust you and see you as the expert in this niche 

I hold you accountable every step of the way and PUSH you to take action!

So - put your distractions aside and make TODAY the day that you finally get that Fiverr Gig PUBLISHED

Thanks for stopping by - and I'll see you inside!

Transcripts

1. Introduction: Have you tried making a five OR gate because 0 results or do keep thinking about it, but you keep putting it off. Well, not anymore because today I'm going to walk you through not just creating a Fiverr Gig for creating a fiber gate that actually sells. My name is Ryan. Four years ago I threw up Fiverr gigs selling short video ads for $40 with no expectations. Slowly but surely orders came in and each time I increase my prices, but I also learned how to increase the value I deliver and ultimately charge a premium for my services. I learned to charge $1000 for what other people were charging in $50 for. That's how I got top salary in two years and made just over $50 thousand in my second year on the platform after starting from scratch with 0 experience, but it wasn't without its problems. I had tons of cancellations, headaches. I worked with the wrong clients and undervalued myself for years. And I'm gonna show you how you can avoid making the same mistakes that I made and how you can break through the noise and deliver based on the value you provide in this short but actionable course, I'll take you by the hand and walk you step-by-step through creating a five gig that actually converts. I'm gonna show you how to optimize your profiles, get the right gape descriptions, get your pricing right, and your requirements so that your process is seamless. You appear professional and friendly, but you also operate like a real business person and lead the projects to get in those Raven five-star reviews. And although my primary gig was videos, I've used the same process for creating a consulting gig, which has also got sales and five-star reviews. And I'm going to be teaching new concepts so that you can follow along and market yourself regardless of what nature in. So if you're a freelance designer, editor, consultant, programmer, or any other kind of freelancer, I'll walk you through creating your perfect Fiverr Gig that actually sells. And I'm gonna show you how to do that today. Every step of the way you'll be stopping to take action, I'll be rooting for you through each video, pushing you out of your comfort zones and holding you accountable. And I promise it will be worth it in the end. So put distractions society for an hour or two. Join me today unless finally create the perfect Fiverr Gig that actually sells. 2. Welcome! (How to use this course): Welcome guys, thanks for joining us and congratulations on taking the first step. That's what we want to do throughout this course is take huge action. And by the end of this course, my goal is to have you hit publish on your Fiverr Gig that actually sells. So before we get into it, I just want to give you a brief introduction video to explain how this course is going to work to motivate you, get you excited to get you overcoming the fears and get you ready to take action. So please don't skip this video or any other videos. And let me just go through a few key points. They're going to help your freelance career. So like I said, the goal here is to get you in the next hour or 90 minutes, possibly two hours, to actually hit publish on a Fiverr Gig. That actually converts. To do this, I need to prepare You, help you find your audience, who target, and what you offer, and turn you into a specialist so that you stand out from all the other noise that is on Fiverr, I'm gonna give you a step-by-step process. And what you need to do is just follow along the guidance and complete the step before moving to the next step, there may be points where things won't be perfect and that is completely fine. We're not aiming for perfect where a man's get things done. I'm actually trying to help you build the habit of finishing things if you've already taken action, which is habit number one. Habit number two is finishing that project, project or finishing that course. If you think about it, how many projects are courses if you started and not finished? Well, don't let that be one today. Put aside all distractions. Turn your phone off and just focus on this and you will feel great when you finally publish that gig. And like I said, you can always go back and make it better. It doesn't have to be perfect now, but it needs to get done. That being said in the first few videos, I am going to prepare you so don't worry about the path that lies ahead because prior to create in the gig, I'm going to prepare you and to help you craft your offer so that you know what you're saying, who you're helping, and you know exactly what you're going to need to do by the time we're creating your game. You're gonna be excited to put it out there. And not only are you going to create a gate, but I'm actually tricking you into becoming a better marketer, a better freelancer, and a bad professional and entrepreneur. So what you can expect in the videos for each step, your description profile price in, I'm going to give you an overview. Then I'm gonna give you examples of good and bad. Then I'm gonna give you your action task. If you don't quite understand something, drop a comment below the video and I'll answer as soon as I can. If you just not feeling too confident, that's fine. If you have doubts, that's fine. Just proceed. Like I said, I really want to get this through because I know that a little insecurity might pop up, but the main thing is you take action and push through that. The worst thing that can happen is nothing happens. And the only way you can guarantee nothing happening is if you don't publish a gig, just a bit of motivation. If you're nervous, feel the fear and do it anyway, like I said, if you have doubts or insecurities, just ignore them. And finally, just to give you some confidence, I want you to remember when we are reviewing the competition or competition as much so I'm gonna help you differentiate yourself so you can stand out, specialized in charge more. When it comes to viewing your competition or other people. I've got two main rules here. Number one, don't get put off by the quality of their work being too good and thinking you'll navigate that because they had to take this very first step. Number two, take inspiration from what they're doing, but just don't copy, do not copy the competition or other freelancers, not word for word. You can look at what they're saying and why, and work that into your own scripts. But really is probably not going to work for you because It's come from them. And you want to take the principles, which is something that I'm going to teach throughout this course. The principles of what we're doing, what we're saying, and how we're targeting our audience and why you want to take them and apply it to your own business. So that being said, that's everything out the way. I hope you're excited and I hope you motivate is what I would advise doing now before you go to the next video is just go and create a Fiverr account. If you haven't, if you already have a Fiverr account, great. I haven't created a video on this because I created my Fiverr account years ago and I can create another account, but I don't think there are any steps that will hinder you in the progress of creating a fiber campus should just be named IP address, date of birth, that basic kind of stuff. Get the Fiverr account created, do what you need to do to get that creative if it's already created, less get into the next video, you've taken to massive steps. You've enrolled in the course. You've watched the first video. Now it's time to go onto the next step. I'll see you in the next video. Let's keep this momentum and less launch the perfect Fiverr Gig that actually sells today. See you in the next video. 3. Your Perfect Worksheet : Hey guys, welcome to the course. Just before we get into things, I've made a quick update just to make things very easy for you. So around this course, around this video somewhere, there's going to be a document now there's only one downloadable resource for this course to keep things nice and simple. So what you can do is you can download this Word document. What we're going to do is as we go through each step of the gig, instead of creating it live as we go. So you're not jumped in-between the course and Fiverr and you don't risk clothes and a gig that's half finished losing your progress or anything like that. I've made a Google document, which as we go through each step, so for example, step one, we're going to create your offer, which is gonna be a gig title. You can download this Word document and you can go in and you can write your gig title. And then when we move into the next module, I'll explain everything and give you some examples and things like that and get the ideas go in. Then you can come back to this document and you can write your price, you can write your pipe price title. So by the end, when we get to publish, all we do is we'll go to create a gig and you should be able to copy and paste most of the information that you've already planned. If you did leave the course, you won't lose anything essentially because you've got it all saved here. When you download the document, there's three things that you can do. Actually, there's two things you can do because one of them is related to one of course modules. So when you download the document, if you click this link, you can actually get access to the Google Doc. And if you go to File and make a copy up here, then you can make a copy in your Google document so that you can access this by Google Docs. Why is this good? While Google Docs automatically saves and it will, you can access it from anywhere. So if you went on different computer, you can access it. And here's just something that I like to do. If you go File, make a copy, and then click this hyperlink at the top and drag this down onto your task bar. You could rename this to perfect Fiverr Gig. And now you have a quick link. So the next time you open up your computer, you can just click perfect Fiverr Gig, you go back and it's automatically saved. There's also a link in here to my Facebook community where I can support freelancers and the community just keeps each other motivated posting results, posts and videos and things like that from all my courses. So click here. This will take you to the group where you can join and you can use the password Fiverr gigs to join. The very first task here is to download the document. You can either keep the document downloaded and saved on your computer and then join the group and then move on to the next module where we actually get into the meat and bones. There is also a recommendation here, but by the time you get this, I think I'm going to put the additional resources further down, which I will start doing now. And this will just keep things streamlined. We don't want you to get into distracted. We want you to launch the gig, but I have poor I will put anything I mentioned any good videos on pricing and things like that. I'll leave a link in this one document. Also, if I have a do update the document, you can just click the link again and then go to make a copy again. And it'll give you the updated versions. So I've just wanted to make this really simple. After each module, you've got one place to go back to your document where you write this out, you can come back and then when you're finally at the point where you hit Publish, you can copy and paste as you go through the Fiverr gig and you can create the Fiverr Gig quickly and everything will be nice and prepared. So look forward to getting into the modules. I'm sure you're going to take a ton from this course. I've put a lot of effort into going into detail to help you with sales and marketing yourself as a freelancer. Look forward seeing you in the next one. Thanks for joining. I'll see you in the next video. 4. Important Update to Help You SUCCEED: Hey guys, So I wanted to put one more video before we actually get into the course because I'm getting some questions that I think I want to answer ahead of time for a load of people. I also want to teach you about how I teach and how I learn. And I also want you to take this course really seriously as a course that gets you results. Not just a bit of fern is actually designed to get your results. So I just want to hammer this home before we get into the video. I'll try and keep this video short and sharp. Everything I create is designed to help you. So please just stick through this video. It won't be long. Let's just get into each point. First of all, this is about creating the perfect Fiverr Gig. One question that might pop up a lot if you have a gig while already, we'll extract the knowledge from this course and apply it to your own or make a new gig. Again, I can show you what I've done, but it's down to you and your intuition to go and do what is right for you. So you can take this knowledge and go and apply it to your own gig. This course focuses on what actually gets your results. So things that you're not going to find in other courses and things that you can't just go and google quickly. So copyright and marketing, not terms and conditions and things that you can google quickly. So if you want, just, for example, you could be wondering like, how, what do I need to get to a level one seller? Well, all the requirements of right in front of you on Fiverr there, one search away. I don't want to waste your time talking through the boring stuff that you can find out quickly. So please use your initiative. Let's go and find out those questions is not meant to be fun. I don't want to put a downer on this is not meant to be fun. It's meant to get you results. Getting results is hard, but here's all the help you need. So I can deliver ten times the value in a slideshow like this. In the same time, it would take me to make a two-minute video with animation and graphics and music and stuff like that, but that's all distracting. So high production video, I would rather use slides, talk to the screen like this so I can deliver it like a human being and really help you. So please don't expect you all to be like YouTube videos. They take a very long time and to be honest, they barely ever cover exactly what you need. So following on from that 0.10 tips is not enough. You can't just watch attend tip video. You need to actually be explained something and then take action on each thing and practice and push yourself. And that is what this course is designed to do. This, the document is no joke. It's not just there for fun. What I teach in each step is designed to push you to another level of freelance marketing. So there's one saying, if you're not motivated, discipline is doing something when you don't feel like doing it because you know, it's the right thing to do. Everything I teach is designed to push you enough to another level. So watch them, watch the module, go-tos document, do the thing by actually putting things into practice. That is how you are going to level up and you're going to feel accomplished. Watching YouTube videos does not accomplish anything without action. If you follow each step and take action, you will get results in your life. You are building the habit of taking action and completion. Things that most people don't do. They're looking for a quick fix. This is not a quick fix. I welcome feedback, good feedback. So can you provide another example of this? Can you clarify what you mean by this? For simple things, please do a quick Google search. How many gigs can I make? What can I charge? What are the requirements? Don't be lazy. These are things that you can Google. This course is designed to give you the things that you can't Google. My personal experience that is really going to help you. Again, I'm being hard but fair. And if you want to survive and you want to thrive as a freelancer, you really have to have thick skin. And hopefully the way I teach is going to help you develop that. I'd rather focused in on things you cannot learn quickly that I've learned over several years that actually help you sell your services. And also testing is everything. If you get an idea, go and try it, you might be the first ones to do something different. So create a new leash, finds a new work in platform. You do not need to ask me if you can try something that your gut is telling you that is going to work. For example, can I make another gig? Can I make a broad gig? Can I make a niche gig? Make all the gigs go and find out, I can just show you what you need to do. I can help you, but it's down to you to take the action, to use your initiative to think, I've got an idea, I'm going to try it. I have tried so many courses to create so many courses. I've tried so many ideas. I've tried so many business models, you wouldn't believe so. If you have an idea, you have to go for it and just know that you will always level up your skills just in the act of trying. I am continually update and improve in this course, I'm only adding valuable examples and practical advice that helps get more results. I've done tons of courses. I don't like long boring courses. I like right here's an action. Go and do it. And I know that I am going to level up. So that being said, like I'm adding this update in now, if something's repeated or clarified in another area, if some of the quality varies at any point is because I'm updating this course and I will tell you if there's an update as well. Once again, I don't miss waste my words, guys, so please don't skip anything. I'm not trying to make this course longer with pointless things. I'm trying to make it the most value pack course actually changes lives. You can literally miss one sentence that is going to give you an aha moment and really help you for the rest of your life. So just even if you break it up, go through each module, a 100% focus, watch, take action, move on to the next step. Get into the process of completing and take an action. Please don't skip anything. Don't skip the actions. You I guarantee you will get to a point where you think or I don't want to do this, I feel uncomfortable. There's some little reason you can't we'll address that reason. It could be, for example, my camera's not good enough to shoot a video. Well, just shoot with what you have. I'm not very good designer design to the best of your ability. For example, with a thumbnail, I don't have any money to buy a thumbnail, go and just make a really simple thumbnailing Canva. So whatever that objection is, don't let it stop. You publish in this gig. And remember, this gig might not make you a millionaire, but the act of taken action is one step closer. Finally, freelance in his heart, guys, freelance in his heart, clients are difficult. It's not easy and it's not for everyone, but it's much more fulfilling than work in an hourly rate for somebody for the next 30 or 40 years? When you think it's hard, just think. I'm glad it's hard. Because if it's hard and I'm gonna push through my competent competition, most people won't follow this path all the way. Most people have doubts and give up. So if it's hard, That's good. You need to push through the hard things now so that life gets easier later on, more fulfilling, more fun. And I tell you up, when you wake up and you're doing your own thing, you have to take a step back and really appreciate where you've come from. So progress might be incremental, might start off really flat like this. But as your skills compound, it goes like this. So get through the hard parts and push through. And then finally, thank you for your support. I understand that this first message might be a bit, it might be not what you're used to because most people want to tell you it's really easy, it's really fun. That's not life, that's not reality. So thank you for your support and I really look forward to helping you take action. So remember, if you need more examples, if you need more clarity on something, let me know if it's a simple thing, just quick Google search. If you still can't find the answer, then let me know. I wish you all the best. I really hope you get through this course. I would love to see somebody one day say Ryan, thank you for that course. I my life has changed ever since I took that course. That's my goal. Tell me what I need to do to help you get there. Thanks, Ganz. See you in the next one. 5. Step 1. Create The Perfect Profile: All right guys, welcome and congratulations on taking action. Our first step of the day is going to be creating the perfect profile. Now, I don't want to bore you talking about the obvious things. I want to try and give you as much value as I can about creating little differences with your profile that are gonna make you stand out more than the average person on Fiverr. We just want to make sure you tick all the boxes. So this might not be the most exciting module. I'm already excited to get into your offer and help you create a great offer that converts. But first, if you've just signed up, you're going to need to create a profile. So I won't spend too long on this. But I'll go through and I'll give you as much in detail as I can. So if we just have a look at mine, I'll just give you a quick overview here. So quick disclaimer. And level two at the point of timing because I was off Fiverr for a few months, so my rank dropped from top seller. I don't want that to worry anywhere, and I've actually been top seller twice. Top salad, they hand-pick you. But I wasn't active for awhile, so I went back down to level two. But that's no problem. It hasn't actually affected lot. I was just working on other things. So let's just take a quick look at my profile. Unless extract the data we can from it. So first of all, although we'll go in more detail, let's just take a quick look here. First of all, I've got a smile in profile picture. I look friendly and professional, although I'm outside. As I'll explain later on, I found with this picture I just have better conversations because they say don't judge a book by its cover, but ultimately we do so also it's a colorful picture. It's not black and white. So it's very transparent that that is me behind these videos and that builds trust. My username is Ryan Collins, 995. I didn't really put much effort in when I made this years ago. I didn't expect anything to happen. But you can put more detailed in your username. If for example, say that you are a video editor, you could have something video. If you are going to specialize in that niche, it will help you probably to have your niche design or video in your name. And then I say, I create video ads that convert. It's really simple and I understand that's what business owners want. Like I said, we'll get into a lot of that later on. And for this video, before I carry on, you can just watch this video through and create your profile. Afterwards if you want, you can watch the video back, however works for you. But I want to give you as much detail as I can and you need to have profile created before you actually move on to the next step. The first thing we want to do is fill it out as much as possible. The more stuff you can put in there, actually good quality stuff than the better it's going to look more filled out. Unlike you've taken this seriously. You're not just being lazy basically from UK members since 2019. So this is all we can really view from here. So let's move on. So don't underestimate the importance of your profile. So in the short module, I'll help you stand out, avoid a few common mistakes and look friendly but professional with the perfect profile. If you're just starting out as we go through the course, I will show you why it's good to specialize rather than being a jack of all trades. But suppose you're still working out your path. You're not sure what career path you want to take for now, as we fill in your profile, your description, just pick something which you're doing right now, which should represent who you are. If it's videos, they say that you make videos, but don't try and do too much. So you see it quite a lot. People who say, I do SEO, website design, graphic design videos. You can't possibly do all of those things and be good at all of them unless you've been doing this for 20 years. And if you had been doing this for 20 years, you probably wouldn't be watching this video. So if you've got whatever your main focuses right now, use that you can always change your profile later, but don't let it stop you getting the profile done because you aren't a 100% sure who you are yet, that is fine. If you're juggling multiple skills right now, are still learning. Just start with one or two as placeholders on your profile while you build and get more experience. So all I'm really saying there is one skill or niche and roll with it while we create the profile. This will all make a lot more sense later. What makes a profit profile? So you've got your profile picture, headline, description, portfolio. You can take tests, linked accounts, skills and education and certificates. And we'll just flip through these quickly, but give you some ideas on the way. So your action task at the end of this video is gonna be created the perfect profile. But I say the perfect profile. This is a continual development today. We still just want to get this done so we can move on. You can fill out your profile as we go or do it after the video. You don't have to put something in every box, but if you have if you fill it out and beef it up, like I said, it's gonna make you look more legit, legitimate. The profile picture. I am convinced that I get treated differently depending on what profile picture I used, the best experience I have, and the most engagement is this photo where I'm smiling is in color, is taken with a good camera and it's outside and it captures the human element. It just shows I'm a normal person. I personally feel these two, this is. And I look a bit too arrogant. And this one, I definitely, if I told somebody, for example, because I liked to lead interactions, I say I don't recommend this. But you, because you're just staring at that profile picture, you can get the wrong idea. It's just what we do as humans. We make judgments really easily. So smiling, colorful profile picture again, I've tried more serious entrepreneurial live in photos, but I feel like I've come across as arrogant. So yeah, my what I've done over the years, I've tried lots of photos. When I've got this photo, people are just warm and welcoming because I look warm and welcoming. And in the next slide I'll share some profile picture best practices. And just quickly, it doesn't matter where you're from. I've had people say to me before, they're from different countries and they don't want to put their picture because people, because they think people won't pay as much. That's just rubbish. Don't do that. Just put a smiling photo. It doesn't matter where you're from or go into that more now, profile picture best-practices, get a clear, smiling and professional headshot. It doesn't have to be corporate where creative people were entrepreneurs and freelancers. You can be wherever, just have a headshot. Don't worry about where you're from. Like I said, it doesn't matter where you just put a smile in photo and people were like that. Would you trust talking somebody without a profile image? So there's a lot of freelancers that will hide behind a logo or something because they think it looks like you're a big company, but you're on Fiverr, you're most likely a freelancer. And if it's just because you don't want to put a picture of yourself up. I understand. You don't have to put a picture of yourself up, but we're talking about making a successful gig here. If you've got a picture of yourself smiling, I think I say it next, actually operate as an agency. If you are an agency but don't hide behind a logo because people buy people and the thing that skyrocketed me to success, which we'll get on later down the line. But I had a video as well of me talking and it builds so much trust, you know what you get in and who you're talking to. And also it just shows that you're a professional and you take it seriously. Also color stands out more than black and white. So I'll show you some examples. Don't know why he didn't fade in, but here you go. You've got some color in the background. Great, great pictures just to clear, phase sharp might not be smiling a 100%, but these two guys, I've got color in the background because when you're scrolling through a bit of color makes you stand out. You can go to canva and cut the background out your picture if you want, put it on color, whatever you want to do, people do on social media and Facebook, but color our ISO into color and we'll skim past because the text is black and white, the background is black and white. So if you've got color, it's gonna make you stand out. So the profile headline again, this is just a short little blurb that you can put about yourself. You get a little space onto your profile image to write what you do. In the coming modules, I'll help you deep dive into your offer an audience, and I'm really looking forward to it. I've already got some great content created for now. Just keep it short and sweet again, you can come back and if you're stuck for inspiration, what do you do and who for, you know, I may, I make graphic designs for social media, anything like that? It can even just be about you as a person in the description. Now, here you got a bit more space to say about what you do on Fiverr, as you'll notice as we go through these videos, when I show you how a message, clients and sales and things like that, I'm really casual, not unprofessional, and I still use correct grammar. I still stay on topic, but I'm casual. It's not corporate and it builds more rapport when you are casual professionals. So you can share a summary of your experience, but you can also show some of your human side. So I've been writing my message for years, so yours doesn't have to be like this, but I'm a UK based social media content creator or a marketing consultant, have a sixth sense for sales. And everything I create is geared towards getting your results are not all that serious though in my spare time, I love geeking out on video games and I compete in a lot of jujitsu. Thanks for stopping by drop me a message if you need anything. It's like a normal sentence as if you're talking somebody you've just met and being friendly and welcoming, but still professional. You don't need to say, you don't need to list off achievements or anything like that. Just a little bit about you, who you are and a bit of indifference. Drop me a message if you need anything like you're happy with. But you're happy without. Again, by the end of this course, you're going to discover so much more about who you are and who you serve that this could change. But let's just get a nice little paragraph in there. And like I said, you can go back and do this after this video, but I would just watch the video so that you know what, you're going to come across. The portfolio. I'm not sure I got this option when I turned the top seller. I'm not 100% sure whether this is by default for everybody now, but it's pretty self-explanatory. You can show off your best work. But something extra that I do is I add a little description on each project. Project I like to demonstrate value by talking about how we create a video and it's less literal additions to show the visitor that I'm serious about what I do. And anytime I get an opportunity to kind of Flex some knowledge to show that I know what I'm talking about. I always do it. We'd it into my conversations. This may be only available to top sellers. I've got the option, but it might, it might be, it might be available for everybody. Now, I'm not 100% sure, but if you don't have the portfolio, you get it when you get to either level to our top cell. I remember it opened up afterwards. So I just wanted to give you a little portfolio example here. So as you can see, under one of these videos, I wrote probably one of my favorite creations. We made it bold scroll stop in flat 2D, fun and informative tech and all those conversion boxes. So I just put a little description, so I wasn't lazy and just uploaded the video. I put a little description saying this one of my favorite creations I put, I showed that I actually thought about it. What sometimes people will see a video on the portfolio and say, I want one like the academic one, or I want one like the, I want one like the user replay one. And I'll put a little description because I know that people are gonna look and they're gonna get an opinion of me on how I write and how I describe and how seriously I take my work. So little things like this really do add up. If you haven't got a portfolio yet. No problem, ignore this step and keep moving forward. You can take tests and in Fiverr as well, fiverr has test bill in which will help you learn, but you also test your skills and you show credentials on the platform again, you've got ticks and green boxes and all this colorful stuff kind of just builds up to give you a really full profile. So as you can see, my analytical skills aren't the best, but my customer services top-notch and After Effects is not bad. It is worth going through and getting some tests. I think they've introduced in mandatory English tests you have to pass to sell on the site now. But at the time of writing, I'm not 100% sure. Like I said, it's a bit awkward because I created my account years ago. So I are not able to start a new one to walk you through some things I just have to let you know about. And if you can find out and you can drop a comment and let me know there maybe we can add some in calcium's that of course. So other people know, but I know every time I create a new gig, it says I've already passed the English test. I assume now that when you start up as a seller, there is an English test. Unfortunately, I can't help you pass the English test. If you fail a test, you can retake the test after three months. Okay, so there's another feature now that says among my clients, if you've got permission from the client, you can go and you can get the name and you can add them on. So like for instance, if it was like Walmart having among my client's Walmart, Fiverr, ETC. They would be great to put on there. So it's kind of like on a website when it says as trusted by and they list the clients that are trusted by this as a form of social proof. Again, it just adds to your credibility and linked accounts. It never hurts to get extra free organic traffic your social pages. I've had people contact me before on Facebook saying they found me on Fiverr and it must be through this. But just while I'm on that point, remember, in a conversation, never say to anyone, can we work on Facebook or if you against Terms of Service to try and get them to work off Fiverr. So it's just a little point there. If you are starting out, be careful not to ask people to leave Fiverr to work with you. We'll get to all that later right now I am just briefly going through the things on the profile. Skills. Simply put, you can declare what skills you have. When a client competes a project, they have an option to endorse the skills. And if you complete tests, you'll get a green texts. So you put what skills you've got. And then when people endorse them, they will show up on your profile and you'll get a green tick if you complete a test as well. So again, it just shows that you're legitimate, that you've got skills. So fill out the skills relevant, relevant to your niche. But don't try to just put everything in there. Like I said at the start, you just want to focus on stay in your lane. So video editing, video advertising, advertisement design, Premiere Pro aftereffects YouTube marketing. So I have really niche down on video and you would obviously pick the skills that are relevant for you. Education and certification. I've not used these features because I have no formal education or certification worth talking about. But if you do have university or college degrees or anything like that, you can put in here certifications you can also put in. But the ultimate goal is to just fill out your profile so that you look legitimate. And now your action task here is to create your perfect profile before we really get into the good stuff, is gonna be thinking about your gig, who you can serve, how you can get more people click in and buy-in and pricing and sales and money. All that great stuff is coming up. But for now, you need a profile. So hopefully you created your Fiverr account before. You might have already created your profile if there's anything extra now that you've thought about, maybe take another look at your profile and then when that's complete, less move on to the next step. Put what you've learned in this module to work if you haven't got a profile picture, don't worry, you can update it later. You can just put a picture of something else or a logo. Although like I said, I recommend the colorful, slightly colorful, smiley profile picture. Like I said, done is better than perfect. I know it's called the perfect profile, but we're aiming to make it perfect over time, really easy. Go back through the video now if you need to finish that profile, fill it out. If you haven't filled it out already, maybe you don't need to take a test right now because they take 45 minutes and I'd rather you get through this course and get the get created, but just a refresher if you've already created a profile. And for those who are brand new, here's what you can expect if you haven't created a profile. If you've got your profile, if all the boxes are ticked and you're happy, Let's move on to the next step. Drop a comment if you need any help, see you in the next video. 6. Step 1. Perfect Profile Examples (Luis - Student): Hey guys. So I just wanted to give you a quick example of a good profile that actually I had a student hire me for coaching. So we worked together over six months and eventually he became a great video editor and now actually works with me on client projects. But I just want to show you the profile quickly, just to show you a pretty cool profiles so you can see what we did here is we took his face out and we've added a colorful backgrounds. So actually when it's small like this, you can see a colorful background. So it kind of scrolls stopping if you'd like. So it's quite intriguing. And then you can see in the description, we fixed up the description. Unfortunately, I don't have the before version because we did this before I even knew I was making a course. But I've just, we've made it quite fun. I loved my cats, my wife, and create an awesome videos. So it's just a very human sort of approach. Then we wrote the description. Hey, I'm Louis, because he was new to five where I wanted to kind of because he he's already got experience in making videos. But I wanted to frame it in a way that is, even though I'm new, I'm not rubbish basically. Hey, I'm Louis, I'm new to Fiverr, but I've been editing videos as a hobby for more than five years and now I want to offer my skills as a service. I love transforming dull, boring footage into engage in videos that keep people watching and help you increase, increase revenue for your business. If you have a bunch of footage and you want to make it look amazing, simply place the orders a day, otherwise, drop me a message. This is Louis his profile. So as you can see, just a quick example. The reviews both from me because he did work for me, but we did them through the gig. So you can see that. And then also on the profile, we can take a quick look at his gig as well. So you will need to later on, we're gonna be going through all of these elements. But I'm just gonna give you a quick overview now. So obviously to five-star ratings, I paid him properly through this. I did it properly. We weren't just trying to get reviews on there. Don't do that. I think you can get caught for doing that. It's not good. So all we've done is used a video that is already created for the gig cover video. I won't play the whole video, but you can see it's just a video sales letter that we wrote together. He edited this actually for one of my clients. And then we've got another portfolio video which I delivered, although he's made much better video since then. And Louis has actually had messages on Fiverr, but has been so busy anyway that he hasn't really been all in on it. It's just to show we set up a brand new gig, brand new seller and he's getting messages just from having to reviews, which I'll show you later. You can get them are friends. You can get friends and family, or people or social media in your network to come and review you, but they have to buy the service. And you don't want to send them a $5 gig. Just to get a review, you can get in trouble for that. So we'll just have a look at the description as well. Again, stay tuned because we're going to go into all of this. But about this gig, coaches, consultants, course creators, you know, people by people you've probably decided on a VSL to sell your product or service. Maybe you've even got the copywritten on your talk and had recorded, but it's boring. There's no music, no graphics, no B-roll. How is anyone going to keep watching while That's why I'm here to help. I've been making videos as a hobby five years, bringing my skills to the market, learning from a friend who was a coach, I realized there's a need for editors who specialize in marketing videos. And after creating a long-form video for a coach, I can say I'm detected. So if you want to jazz up your video sales letter would engage in graphics music B-roll, and you never want to look at adults and software again. Either place me an order or drop me a message. Thanks Louis. We'll go into this copyright in later. But the hawk coaches consultants course, your hook in the viewer that is watching your given them a story about how you came to be. Then you're building up some desire and then you're asking them to take action. But again, saw come in later. It's under ads and social media. Then we've got three packages, 60-second high-quality added, 122nd, five-minutes. So 125 minutes. As you can see, it's straightforward. Everything is not confusing. So again, we're gonna get into this. You don't want this to be confusing. So up to 60 seconds high-quality editor and music as stock footage and custom graphics. And then you've got the same up to a 120, up to five minutes. So you can see that you get the same thing. The only thing that changes is the price. Because if people get confused here, they're not going to buy because confusion for customers and no, remember this because we're gonna get to all this later. But I just wanted to give you massive value now and actually show you something I created, how we've written it. And then let's go here. Look, you've got delivery time. You can add on two-day delivery. So we start at five. You can knock it down to two by adding an extra £38 there. Yeah, the basic gig is a 1087. We want people to look at it. If it's $5, nobody's gonna look at it. So I hope you've enjoyed this as a little updates, by the way. So I'm adding it to the start of the course. I just wanted to show you guys where we want to go before we actually get into the nitty-gritty. And every, every module is going to go in detail on price, in detail on descriptions, and give you the action task. If you want to come back here and look for inspiration, you can see what we have done. And you're sort of gap better idea as you go through the course. I hope you've enjoyed this quick video, wanted to deliver a ton of value up front. This is Louis, his profile. I'm Ryan. I'll see you in the next video. 7. Step 2. Craft Your Perfect Offer: Okay guys, welcome to the course. I hope you're excited to get started. There is an absolute ton of value. You cannot miss this video. We're gonna be talking about creating your perfect offer, which will also double down as your gig title. I won't confuse you right now. I'll just let the slideshow presentation speak for itself. But where can I go deeper into why we are doing certain things with our gig title? And in this video I'm gonna be setting you up so that when you create your gig title, you have a much better idea of who you're serving and what service you're going to provide them. So what we will learn in this presentation, what is an offer and why is it important? Why keywords matter? Volume versus specificity? I've put together an offer template formulas, so I've made it easy for you to create your own gig title and your offer which you can use in all your other marketing. And at the end there's 11 example gig titles so that you can feel inspired. And then obviously the action tasks at the end is going to be creating your offer. For this module, I recommend watching the entire video through to understand everything before starting to create your offer, a gig title. But if you want to take notes on pen and paper or a Google Doc, however you work, best. Follow along and take notes if you like. I'll tell you when to actually leave the course and go and take action. Because remember what I'm trying to do is I'm trying to paint the big picture. Give you some knowledge, gives you something to do and help you keep learning, but actually putting those things into practice every step of the way. So what is an offer? An offer is a proposal of something for somebody to accept or reject. Is that simple? In the marketing world, your offer is what you provide as a service. So this could be a course or review and audit, a design, a video, coding, programming, whatever your services, whatever your businesses, this is what you're offering to the world. Our goal in this video is to make your offer compelling. On Fiverr, your offer will be your gig title. That's the context that I'm explaining offer with right now. We're thinking about our gig title. How do we summarize in 80 characters what we do and who it's for. Your gig title on Fiverr will always start with I will. This is what it looks like, so I will. And then we're going to type in our gig title, which is going to represent our offer. Let's talk about why keywords matter and new Greek title. Your gigs operate on SEO, search engine optimization. This means your gig will be more likely to be shown to the most relevant people searching. So whatever they're searching, the most relevant gigs will be shown to them first. But not only that, the algorithm rewards positive engagement. So if you get clicks and you get good reviews, you'll go up in the search rankings. So obviously at the beginning you're going to be at the bottom, but with the right title. And later on we'll go into categories and things. But for now we're just really focus among title and the right keywords. You'll have more chances of being found initially. And if you follow this training, I can make you look so much more specialized that you'll get more clicks. So for example, if you have the word Facebook in your gig title, you will be more likely to be shown to people searching for things with Facebook in the title. But if you have Facebook ads in the title, you will be even more relevant to people searching for Facebook ads. Specifically, the two primary keywords in your gig title will most likely be the service you're providing. So that can be designed or editing, plus your audience's business or platform of choice. So coaching or consulting business, Facebook, YouTube, Instagram, these are all keywords are gonna be relevant for what the person is searching. Here is just one bonus tip for helping you discover popular keywords. If you go to buy-in on Fiverr as a buyer, and then you start searching your keywords. Popular search In terms. We've searched Facebook up here. Popular search terms will pop up automatically. And this is what can help you get inspiration for what people are actually searching for us. So obviously yours can be something different. But if you search Facebook at right at the top, Facebook ads in social media advertising category and social media design, the most popular. So when you've got your search term, you can also put your, put your actual search term in here and you can find out what categories they fall in as well. Kind of like Google, these are the most popular search terms. There's just a little tip. When you do come to discover new Rome keywords, you can get some inspiration from that. Now volume versus specificity. So volume is the amount and specificity is how specific the search term is. And I don't mean to confuse you, just trusted that this well, if it's a bit confusing now, it will sink in overtime. And you will understand by the and not just on Fiverr, but in marketing worlds in general, in my opinion, and many others, it's better to be great at one thing than to be average at lots of things. Short, there may be less people who need your services if you specialize in one thing. But as a specialist you can charge more. It can be more difficult to be compared to others because you're the go-to person, person in that niche. Little spelling mistake there. You get better and faster at your one thing, which means more profit because you can do great work in last time. You shouldn't be punished for doing work quickly. If you're really good at it, you get better at delivering your message, which is marked in delivering the message, your messages, how you speak to people, how you deliver your offer. So you'll get better at delivering that overtime because you're focusing on the one thing. You could actually build a brand about what you do specifically. There's just some context for volume versus specific obesity. If you're trying to catch, to manufacture at once, you might not catch one. Or there's a saying, the man who chases two has catches none. Here's a couple of examples when we're talking about volume versus specificity, so broad or general? More search volume unless special, specialized, I will be a video editor. I will be your graphic designer. I will edit your Tiktok, YouTube, Facebook, instagram videos. Now, the last one, you will appear on more searches, so it is good in that area and you're still specialize in, but you're specializing in for niches. So now, if we look at some more specialized and targeted titles, less volume or more specialized, I will be your YouTube video editor. I will create beautiful Facebook and Instagram graphic design posts. I will create beautiful graphic designs for your fashion brand. I will create powerful short Facebook and YouTube video ads. You can see these are a lot more tailors and specialized. So if you imagine if someone with a fashion brand is searching for fashion posts, fashion designs, fashion graphic designs. These two pop-up, I will be a graphic designer. I will be, I will create beautiful graphic designs for your fashion brand. Who do you think is going to be more appealing? Let me just move my face. As you can see, I've all, I've also carefully added some descriptive words to meet the gigs are more exciting, professional and compelling. Descriptive words here, beautiful, beautiful, powerful. And over here we haven't got descriptive words. So hopefully you've already got ideas popping in about what you're going to put for your gig title. The magic spot is being specialized enough to be the go-to, but still have a popular enough service that there are enough people that actually want that offer or service. How do you find out if people want the service? While you go to Fiverr, you search as a buyer and start searching. You can look for gigs with lots of reviews, read the comments on what people like and don't like. This is just great advice anyway, if you cannot offer anything, if you're going to create something similar to what somebody else has created, if you see the reviews and you'll see I liked this but I didn't like this. That gives you ammunition for your gigs. So you know what people want by looking at reviews. Now is also a good time to pay attention to gig titles, descriptions, and thumbnails. So you always want to be just absorb in an observing of what people are doing. But basically, if you go over to Fiverr as a buyer and you search, I will design a tribal tattoo. And you know, it's that there's ten gigs and not many reviews, then maybe that isn't the most popular niche. But then if you search video editor, you can see hundreds and they all look the same. But if you see, I will add it your YouTube videos for your channel. Then you know that guy does one thing. He's a YouTube channel video editor, and you can always make other gigs. But the point is, there's a rule basically, confusion for customer is a no ripe. You want your title to say exactly what the gap they've searched it, they see the title, they go to the gig. The gig says the same thing. The portfolio is the same as the gig title. It all makes sense and they're like, yep, this is the guy or the girl. That's where you want to be. I'm going to give you a formula now. That is going to help you create your own gig title based on what we've learned. So now we understand that we're offering our services to the world through our gigs title. Let's look at a simple formula for creating a compelling gave title. Okay, So I understand that not everybody watching this course, maybe English isn't your first language. So I've put the English terminology but I'm just going to explain what it means. I will verb. Verb is the doing word. What are you going to do? So creates, produce, design, anime. I will design you and, or a, and then adjective. You can get a describing word in there, a beautiful or professional or converting. Then the noun is the thing, right? So the noun is land and page, website, social media post. And then you can optimize more for SEO by saying four. And then you could say social media platform. So I will design you a beautiful social media post for Facebook. You could even go further to talk about the client's business. If you make converting video sales letters for coaches, you can say, I will write you a converting video sales letter script for your coach in business. Now if anybody searches scripts, converting coaches, business, you're going to appear in those searches, you've got more chance to appear, but you're still going to be very targeted. So if they find that person were five-star reviews and you're the go-to video sales letter copywriter for coaches, then you can charge a lot more because you're the specialist in the industry and it's supply and demand. So if you are the person that specializes in that, and you've got five-star reviews, not just supply and demand, but the business owner is more than happy to pay more to get a specialist, to just get the job done. Because if the job is done properly nine times out of ten, it's gonna make the business owner more money. The more you can specialized and actually get business owners results in a niche, which is easier when you focus on one thing than try and get results in everything. Then the more money you're gonna be able to charge. But not just charge it because you want to charge it. You can charge it because it's actually worth it, because you're actually getting the results that you promise. Gig titles are limited to 80 characters as well. So I thought I'd pop that in there just so you've got an idea. One more thing, like I said, Oh, just think about what the client really wants. Results. This could be cliques, lead sales conversions, but also status. So in marketing we appeal to time, money status. Those are three things. People pretty much one. And this is how you can increase your value. Because if that business owner spends $40 on a video for spends three hours talking with video ads, sell revised net talent and what to do. That business owner could be making $500 an hour, not working on that. So the video is actually cost him $1540 because he had to go through the whole process. And the video editor wasn't lead in the interaction. Whereas if the video editor charges $500 and then says, or the video ad creative, if it's, for example, I will create you a convert in social media video ads. And the client asks you some questions, we'll get into the message in and how to talk to clients later and get the deals. But if you say Yep, I know what you need. A brief summary. How is $500? The client knows that if they pay $500 and they save three hours of their time trying to educate someone on what they need, then that's actually going to be worth more than if they got a cheaper video and had to spend time on it. So that's just extra value for you. I hope that makes sense, but that is what is really valuable to a business owner. Being able to just go, I need this done and now I can get back to focusing on my work is what you want to be doing. So I know I went on a bit of a tangent there, but all of this is extremely important and valuable to remember. So that is what value you provide is you take the weight off their shoulders and you get the job done. And if you specialize, then you know, you can confidently get the job done. It's gonna make you more confident to charge more money before you get to your action task. Here's just 11 example gig titles for various niches that I just made up on the spot this morning. Create a scroll, stop in Facebook, Instagram, YouTube video ad. Sometimes you're going to have to edit the title a bit because there'll be too many characters.

But obviously I can't go through and review everyone's Fiverr gigs. I would just never be able to even finish creating another course if I review everyone's individual titles and Fiverr gigs. But that being said, you've got everything you need now to create a gig title. If I've missed anything, please drop a comment below. Let us know. If you're already excited as well. Drop a comment, tell us that you have created your gig tile and you're excited to get onto the next bit and get that in a Google doc. And then when you are done, when you've got your gig title, remember, it doesn't have to be perfect. It doesn't have to be right? It will change over time and you can create multiple gigs. Now is not the time to get it perfect. Now it's time to get it done, but get it done properly. And so go back through the video if you need if you need anything else from me, drop a comment. I hope you're excited. Thanks for watching and I'll see you in the next video. 8. Step 2. (Part 2) Time for Some Tagging!: Okay guys, welcome back. So we've written our headlines, so I'm just gonna show you my headline here and then we'll look at the category, the subcategory and the search tags. And obviously the categories, There's a lot of categories is going to totally depend on you and what service you're offering. But I can show you my thought process when I'm choosing my category and how you can choose your search tags as well. If we have a look here, my gig title I have written and I'm actually filling out this worksheet as we go. This is going to help me make sure that I get everything in here as well. And you'll get the version without my writing. And so I will write an adult a converting VSL video sales letter for YouTube ads. I'm not sure why it says YouTube ad there, but as you can see in here, I've written for YouTube ads. So just to cover some things I know the grammar isn't proper in here, so write and edit a converting VSL video sales letter. Essentially, I'm trying to hit VSL as a keyword and video and video sales letter and YouTube ads. It says Looks good, however shorter title sell better. I agree, But also I'm hitting more keywords, so I'm going for more impressions here, but essentially I'm going to write a video sales letter. They shoot the footage. Then I edited. So now I need to pick a category. So this is where you could find yourself stuck between two categories. So we've got lots of categories here. We've got graphics and designers marked him writing and translation. Ultimately, I think the primary category for this, although I'm writing the video sales letter script, it's going to be creating the video as a whole. So I'm gonna go video and animation. And then so category we've got video editing, short video ads, an animated GIF centers and out Truths, etc. I think short video ads, video editing is a very broad category and I'm thinking short video ads is more niche. We're talking about ads not just as some videos, video editing is going to cover YouTube videos and things that aren't ads. But I am right in a, we are, we are looking for video sales letter for YouTube ads. So this whole project is the end result, is a YouTube video ads not just delivering the copy. So I'm going to put this in short video ads. So I just wanted to show you that because you are going to get to a category. If you want to have a look at the categories here, there is graphics and Zion digital marketing, right in and translation, video and animation, music and audio program intact data, business and lifestyle. But you don't really need to plan this. I think you can do this when you get to it. So depending on who you are, you can go and everything has got subcategories. So ultimately, I just don't think it's worth going through every category here. So you can cross this bridge when you come to actually put in, in your gig. The next part that I wanted to show you here is gig metadata. So because I'm niche and down, I'm going to click YouTube. So obviously this is going to show more in YouTube ads, video type, not defined animated live action or other. I might put other and I might just put video sales letter. It's not animated, it's not an, an animation video, it's not a live action video. Then video orientation, simply select up to three options. I could put horizontal because I think that YouTube ads are primarily horizontal there. They are landscape 16 by nine. So the most important, these, the categories will pop up and various things will pop up depending on what your niches. So I can't go through every possible combination, but just know that when you've put your title and you'll get these two. But what you can do now is we can look at search tags. So search tags are going to help us come up in certain searches. So I'm definitely going to use YouTube ads, but you can see as I type youtube, different things pop up. I'm going to type YouTube ads and I'm going to type video sales letter. I'm going to type VSL. And then what I could also do is if I want to go over to Fiverr and search for YouTube, you can see we've got YouTube video editing, but I think that's more for YouTube channels. Whereas if I put YouTube ad, we've got YouTube ads, but it also shows a sim video marketing and in short video ads. This is another way that you can find your category. But again, you can save this for when we actually go in. But in the meantime, you can go over to Fiverr, click on buy-in as if you're a buyer. So up here it's switched to sell in at the moment because I'm viewing as a buyer and you can start typing your keywords to see what category it might fall in. You can also do this later. But the main thing we're looking for is there, So for me, YouTube ad video there is. And YouTube ads, campaigns. So if you type, YouTube ad is showing, again the most popular ones. So I can go back to my tags and I can type YouTube ad video, and I can type YouTube ads campaigns. There we go. I've got five tags. They're all related. I've got niche down video and animation short video ads. And I've got a kind of a niche product here. The difference being I'm not just going to write the copy, but I'll write the copy and edit the video. I hope this helps. So your next task here, part of task one, task 1.2 or 2.2. After your gig title is to go and write five tags, five things that you think people will search. You can also go to Fiverr as buy-in and you can type them in. But remember, we're not setting up the gay gap. The idea is these can go into your worksheet and then when you find your tags, you can write them in here. So YouTube ads, YouTube ads, campaigns. So go over to buy-in. You should have your title in here, go over to buy-in, come back and write your tags in here. And it's these little details that are really going to make the difference in whether you have a successful gig or not. So I just wanted to add this little bit. Just to recap then your category and your gauge metadata are completely depend on what you do. And you can pick them when you get here. You can find out later on down the line as well, by putting your keywords, you can see what they fall under. I could've picked video marketing. I'm gonna go with short video ads. And then finally, your task here is to search for the five tags and go and put them in. So you can see letters and numbers only five tags maximum. Very important part, which is going to help you with your SEO. Hope you've enjoyed and I'll see you in the next video. 9. Step 3. Profitable Pricing: Hi guys, Welcome to the profitable pricing module. I'm sure you're really excited about this one, really fun topic. And there's loads of valuable, valuable stuff in here that's probably going to motivate you. So I won't waste any time. Let's just get into the module. What we're going to learn in the module, how much to charge and how much not to charge. Single offer or packages. The popcorn tract or the popcorn strategy, price and titles and descriptions and upsells. The action task at the end is going to be to name your price. Like I've said here, kind of reiterating the same thing. So each step of the way there's a Google doc attached to this course. You should be following along and fill in in that Google Doc. I've already put in order the things you need to fill in in the Google Doc. Or if you've saved it to Google Sheets. And after this video, your, your task will be to add it your single offer or your package offer price and title and description of your offers to your Google Doc or Word doc, whatever you're using. So again, just watch it through, Take it in and take notes if you want. And then afterwards if you need to go back through, scrub back through the video and just get a price in there, ready to go. We'll create the gig live at the end of the modules. Yeah, we're not gonna, we're not gonna create the gig as we go. We're creating it in the document. That way, you can't lose anything. How much to charge? There is no right answer. I know this isn't the answer you really want, but there is no right answer. It just comes down to testing. But obviously you're going to charge a little bit less to begin with, but I'll show you more about that soon. You charge based on the value you create. So what you've got to remember is that especially if you're an employee you use to whatever your minimum wages or your normal wages is quite hard to imagine after a year of learning and other skill, or a couple of months and learn another skill that you can actually charge more than, than your hourly rate without certifications, without formal education, things like that. So the value you create really comes from whatever you are creating. Chances are you're creating it for business and they're gonna make money if what you create as good. So what this whole course is designed around is helping you really tap in to specialize in providing one solid surface for business that actually get results. So the way you are creating value is one, you're saving them time because they don't have to go back and forth with you because you're an expert at what you do, which is kind of what we've already dived into. And then number two is, that's the opportunity costs as well as called the cost of them going back and forth for hours is the cost is their hourly wage. And if they run a business that can be quite high, Then number two, you're also, if you create something that actually gets results and you take care to make sure that what you do is actually going to work. So if you're making social media posts or graphic designs, if you think about why they need the design, is that, for example, in, there's a video pricing creativity. If that logo is for re-brand, for a multi-million dollar company, they're not going to spend $20 on it, but it's still a logo. I'll link you to some great videos and stuff later on. But ultimately, you want to charge based on the value you create. And I know that doesn't give you a number yet. You've got to remember Fiverr takes 20%. I'm an engineered profit to grow. So I worked for four or five years. Yeah, I got a little studio setup. I've got a decent enough place. But I worked for four or five years and then at the end I paid my taxes and I have nothing as a freelancer. You because you're you're using the time for money. You don't grow unless you charged profit. Which again, I can link you to a guy who can explain it much better. But without profit, you can't grow. If you're not growing, you can't serve your customers, which means you can't help them. So it's not unethical to charge. Profit is actually necessary. What business doesn't charge profits. So we all work out our hourly rate. You might even take away your expenses, but without profit, you're going to end up years down the line with nothing. You need to charge profit to grow. You need to consider your monthly expenses. I pay probably about 250 or $300 a month on stock footage, Adobe image websites where I can get images from and PNGs and background curtain out tool and another one to make fancy captions. There's all these little expenses and music, everything adds up. So you've got to consider. That those monthly expenses and that you have it already for the business owner. You're not gonna need anything. Your stock footage, music, you know, all your subscriptions are included. And that's in any niche again. So you need to really consider your monthly expenses as well. So you probably already guessed that charging $5 is a no-go. Like I said earlier, consider how much time it takes the business owners do it themselves and all the time you've spent learning the skills. So you need profit Fiverr take 20%, you've got monthly expenses, your skill, your time, and other people want you and the opportunity costs of the business owner not having to go back and forth because you know what you're doing, getting them results with minimal hustle. And first, research your audience. I think what I meant there was just understanding. So it depends who the who the client is. Not necessarily on Fiverr, but if you understand your client before you set a price, you can see how big a deal this video is going to be. If thereabouts spend a million dollars a month and ads on it, It's a really big deal. You can charge more. Probably not so relevant for fiber because you've got a fixed price there. So ultimately you cannot grow with five or $10 gigs. I don't think in any country, five or $10 an hour is going to cover the 20% loss, the profit to grow, the expenses, all that. You really need to think about those things. And another thing for people in different countries, if you do not charge based on where you are. So think about US clients. I admit at obviously, you know, there's going to be there's going to be a line where it's going to be more difficult to charge tons of money. As if you were in the US, if you're in a different country where, where the economy is different. But also remember, like a $100 to you might be $500 in the US. The cost of living in the UK is so expensive, I have no choice but to cost more. But what I'm saying is don't think that because you live in another country where things are cheaper, that you can't charge the same. Of course you can. Nobody cares they want the result, I promise you. So to summarize, if you're just starting out with 0, reviews charge at least $40 for service. The average trades person in the UK, we'll charge about £40 an hour. That's probably going up. So that could be like a personal trainer and massage therapist. Generally, if you've got a skill and your charge an hourly $55 up to a $100 for a plumber or something like that. So probably more even if you just don't know and you've got 0 reviews charge at least $40. Don't don't go for five or ten because a lot of the time, even when I'm hiring someone or skim over 510, you may have to work a bit longer for less initially until you get clients coming in. So I think that goes without saying people are gonna look, you have no reviews. You might have a portfolio, but if your gig is written really well, if your portfolio is good and if your question is on point, all of which I'm gonna help you within this course, you will be able to get those first reviews. I'll also try to help you try and get reviews from social media, from family and things like that. Little tip when you are full, if you fall and still getting messages, put the prices up. If they stop buying after you put the prices up for awhile, drop the price a little bit. Finally, don't assume the price is too high if people don't buy. So look at the customer journey. So ultimately at the start, I mean, if you just put the prices up 20% and then everyone stops by and you can assume it's that because you know what it was like before, but when you start, if no one's buy-in, don't just assume is too high and your process down. First thing everyone does, and it's the last thing you should do. So don't assume the process to high. Look at the customer journey when they see your thumbnail and gig description, and they click, does the description and the gig, does everything match up? Or do you go from one thing slightly off to another thing? Do you look like a specialist or you're trying to do everything? So just a little tip here. This is not my channel, I'm not affiliated or anything like that. This guy is the best for pricing creativity. This is Blair ends, and this is the future. Christo Blair and taught the future. And I've got two of Blair ends is books. One is called pricing creativity, and the other one is the, something manifest, I can't remember, but these videos, if you just search the future, they're great videos to watch. This one has millions views, 4.1 million views is the best video. So instead of going to a Facebook group and saying, how much do I charge for a logo? Which is the most popular question. I see him freelance groups. Just go over to this channel. I'll also leave a link in the document if I haven't already go over to the future subscribe and pricing value not time, how much do you charge for a logo pricing? Creativity is also relevant, so good and it's just going to blow your mind and you'll have less of a problem putting your prices up. So do you do a single offer or packages? So if you don't know already on Fiverr, you can have one single offer or you can have packages. So you can have three offers of different process. Let's think about this. Can you actually break your offer, whatever you're offering, can you break it into three packages? So if you've got a graphic design, you can add things to the package. If you are going to add things to the package segment on deliverables, not effort. This is huge. I see loads of designers and things say in good design, better design and best design. Business owner who cares about their business is going to want the good design, not the best design. You should be doing your best work every time. It should be the best every time. If you go into add three packages to start out, you might be better with one single offer. And then if somebody messages you, you can find out what they need and give them a custom offer. I did that for a long time. But if this is more advanced, it by the annual be clear. So if you are going to break it up into packages, segment on deliverables are not effort. So package one 15-second video package to 45 second video packaged three, two-minute video. I think that's what mine is. I'll show you in a minute. Designs one designed three, design ten designs. Landing page, landing page, landing page with tracking, landing page track in SEO, a month of help or support. So think about if you can break your offer up so you've got your main offer. Can you break it into three if you find it hard to just leave it for now, but is something worth considering as well? And I'll show you a bit more about how to price it. So consider the popcorn pricing strategy, which is an advanced pricing technique that I'll show you in the next slide. If you're struggling to pick three prices right now, just keep it simple with one price. And this is the most important bit confusion for customers or no. So keep your offers seamless throughout the gig. Keep the pricing simple. Problem I see again is with three packages is you've got one thing in one package that isn't in the second package, but isn't the third package. And complicated combinations of what's in the packages is just difficult. And, and as soon as somebody, you've probably been scrolling through social media or clicked on a link, been looking at a course or something and then you couldn't quite find what you need quick. So you just close it. You know, there's that moment where a customer gets confused and just says no. Confusion for a customer is a no. So you always want to be looking through the perspective of the customer. When I see the ad, when I click the Add, when I land on the page, when I see the video, when I read the description, when I look at the pricing, is it or seamless doesn't make sense? And is this a person for me? So go through that journey as well. Just might as well just show you my just an example. So with the packages, I've broken it up into 15 seconds, up to 45 seconds, and a two to three-minute video sales letter. And we can take a quick look at the descriptions as well. So I made it a bit fun. The scroll stopper, this is later in the video sales letter. We'll get into the descriptions and titles and stuff, but essentially, I'll make it very clear. 15 seconds, 45 seconds to three minutes didn't put 1530 seconds because people just pick 15. And sometimes it goes over and I don't really if it goes over 15 seconds and it's like 20, I don't say I'm going to charge you for five seconds. We can have a quick look at the descriptions as well, perfect for short, snappy video ads. I think I've updated this up to 20 seconds and I've written 15 there. Example, nobody's perfect, not even me, believe it or not. So up to 20 seconds concept copied xi1 animation, no voice-over. Standard mortar, say stainless the stinger, but longer. So just saying you've got everything that's included there is also included in there. Then this is just completely different. This is two to three minute video sales letter. That's fine. That's not confusing because it's still like you go 1545029. I don't need that one. Perfect for coaches, consultants to three minutes VSL copyright and an editing. So it's kind of a different service. But the reason it's there, there's two reasons. It's the popcorn pricing strategy, which I'll show you and set the popcorn pricing strategy. You've probably already guessed what this is, but if you go to the cinema, you'll probably see a small, The cinema or the movie theater. You see a small popcorn, $3. The medium popcorn, the decoy might be like $6.50. And then the last popcorn is gonna be $7. So this is just a little bit of an advanced pricing strategy. Don't have to think about it this much. You can just pick one price. I'll give you some example prices as well for different services after. But ultimately, when you faced with so they did the test and when you're faced with like small three large Seven, people are gonna pick small most of the time because seven seems like such a jump. But if you put this decoy in this medium for 650, people make the decision between these two and they decide that wireless only $0.50 more for large. In this example, they want the large to win. So you're gonna go small, medium 650, large, seven while we could get large, or you could even call it like extra large. But really this is the price that you actually want. And this is a decoy and not many people buy that one. Or you can even bump this up like force $4 for small, 650 for medium. So it's less than double more. And then like an extra 50 p for the large one. It's just something to think about. They do this in cinemas. You'll always add an extra 50, pay extra for those curly fries or whatever. So here's just an example which is just applied to a Fiverr Gig. So short one short video ad to 753 short video ads for 453 short video ads optimized for Facebook story in YouTube. So basically you'd get nine renders there. If you were looking at these, you'd be like, well, one is to 75. If I'm going to get one, I might as well get three for 445 because it's like only 150 bucks more. It's like 1.5 more for triple. That seems to be more valuable o, but then I'd be stupid not to pay $30 to get this for Facebook story on YouTube. So this is the one that we want them to win. But if they still buy a short video ad, cool to 75. So then here's just like an alternative example of what I just showed you there, where we have a middle winner. So one short video, add 375, brought the value of the lowest price product up. Three short video ads. The one I want them to get, 445 is just a little bit more than the one. And then three short video ads optimize for Facebook story in YouTube, sex 75. So it's actually quite a bit more. It's $230 more for this one. So they might go 1375. You can't have this most popular on Fiverr, but you probably see this on websites a lot. 1375044543. Why would I get one if I can get for 4543? And no, Thus Thus too much. I don't want all that other stuff. I just want three short video outs. And there you go. So if you are going to use packages, here's some good ways to do the pricing to help you get the price that you want. But also, if somebody doesn't take that, They just take that. You still get 375 for the video ads. So it's really hard to lose. Like this. Just don't, don't offer too much at the starts, keep it simple and go through the processes. So some prize starting points. Hopefully you've got, you've got some wild ideas and you're already thinking about how you can break your services up. Remember there's upsells as well. So like you can just have one gig and upsells. We'll get to the upsells and sac. Here's some pricing starting points if you really can't decide. So short video. By the way, the, I totally made these up. But sometimes people are like, Yeah, this is all great Ryan, but how much do I charge? So here's just some examples. If you want to just do it this way, just go for it. Short video at $95, thumbnail, $40. This is wherever you are in the world by the way, of course, everything that I talked about in this course applies worldwide. Cover photo design, 40 bucks, landing page 175. No idea. I don't make landing pages social media posts or designs. $30. That's just like one post, you know, like somebody you could do in Canva, logo design, $90. Just pick somewhere and start as the reviews come in, the prices go up. If they stop as a reviews and the orders come in process go up if they stopped buying while maybe the price goes too high. Let us look at package titles and descriptions. So like I said before, we've got the score services liberty of sales layer here and three descriptions. So just a few quick notes about these. Like I said before, be clear on deliverables. One, social media posts, 15 second video AT don't make it ambiguous, like good video, better video, the best video. Because what people are trying to do that, The trying to do the popcorn pricing strategy. But they're being completely way too obvious about everything. Just saying good best. Kind of like saying I just want you to click the best because it all almost comes from doing, you do great work and you want to spend time on it, be as scared. You won't get the client's if you charge too low, just don't charge too low. It's never worth wasting your time on the ones that are too low. Because what do you do when a higher ticket client comes in? You can't because you've got the lower ticket loans to work with. And every time you push the bar, it stays there. So don't use ambiguous phrases. Feel free to add some creativity. A catchy title. Describe who is perfect for like I've done there, perfect for short snappy video ads, perfect for coaches, consultants. I've just make things a bit more human and fun. So it doesn't have to be or rigorous. The alternative to this would be like landing page design, great landing page design, amazing graphics and just very general, like very vague stuff. And make sure your titles and descriptions are aligned with your initial offering. Basically. If you're, like I said before, the funnel journey, they see your thumbnail, they click it, they go there. Everything needs to be congruent, it needs to be aligned. Just make sure that your titles and your description is what you're offering is the same as what you advertised. Finally, I think upsells. So there's so many different niches and categories I can't go through and look all the different upsells, but I can show you mine and I can give you some principles and however applied to pricing strategy to these as well. So keep them relevant, keep them simple and easy to understand, and don't just put loads on there. I actually just like having two to the two that aren't going to really bother me. Pick what applies to your niche. Again, I don't have all the categories here, so I can't show you everything, but I'll explain these in a second. Don't give them reasons to spend too much time comparing your packages with and without upsells? Yes. So if you've got three packages and then up on different video on different video lands, for example. Best example for me because I do videos or even three design sizes. And then you've got upsells for Lance and sizes. It's kinda get confusing. So you don't really want to upsell anything that is already separate because what they'll do is they'll go and be like, well, okay, So this one with the fast delivery is this one, but fast delivery is included in the premium package. So do I get this fast delivery and they'll just don't make it confusing. So two things I don't offer in my initial three variations are additional orientation. Video could be square and then it could be landscape, and extra fast delivery. Basically. I use popcorn trick where my delivery, I've raised this. I've put the delivery length on my initial videos at 77 days, seven days, and ten days, even though I can do them in 1A2. The basic offers 7710, because one is 15 seconds once 451 is a two to three minutes. Additional orientation here, 778170707170. I've kept all the prices the same as well. So if you think about it, well, if I'm paying 450, This is what I want them to think a little bit down here. So while it if I'm paying 450, I think my video is 375 for the one, for the short ones. So while if I'm paying 375 and I've got to wait seven days, I might as well pay 70 more and get it in two days, you know, so I've raised the initial delivery length and then I offer faster delivery. Another thing I see, basic gig, $5.24 hour delivery. What can you upsell? How can you make any money is crazy, so just don't do that. Charge may make it higher the higher initial offering, and then add on those little things, you know, you're anchoring higher. So yeah, there we go. So I hope this gives some ideas. So this is pretty much like a 70 out of 450, So like 1 fifth of the price. So for example, you could have a $170 design. Then in delivering just one day for forty-five dollars or something like that, or normal delivery. Three days, 24 hour delivery. Business owners are busy. They want they don't want to waste time. They'll pay for 24 hours delivery, promise you. Alright, then superheroes, action task for today is name your price. So put what you've learned in this module to work. Just decide, first of all, are you going to do one price? Are you going to do three packages if you're in doubt or so confusing, just do one, just pick a price. So the Google doc provides us in this course, just open that backup. There should be saved to your desktop or you've copied it to Google Sheets and is saved in your taskbar, go in, you've got your gig title, now is your price because that is the order that things go. When you've done that, think about any upsells you might have and their prices. So maybe break out your offer. So think about if you are gonna do three packages, pick three prices, then work out, how much would you charge, charge, charge 25% or 2020 or twenty-five percent more for 24 hour delivery. 20th, 25% more for like an extra orientation. Summing this gonna take you ten minutes. What I think would be good was one solid offer with an act with a fast delivery upsell, That's nice and simple. If you want to go to three packages to upsells, however you want to do it, go to the Google Doc now, get a price in there. You've seen some examples. So there should be more than enough for you to just at least pick a price. And then you can see how it goes. And then just a reminder, if people start buying Great, put the prices up as they buy. If they stopped by an after you put the prices up at a certain point, like really stop and that's the only change you've made. Then you can assume that the process too high. Move on when you've completed this task. Thanks guys, I hope you've enjoyed it. I really enjoyed making this module. I'll see you in the next video. 10. Step 3 (Part 2) Custom Offers: Okay guys, I just wanted to give you a quick extra video on custom offers. A custom offer is an offer that you can send with a custom price, custom details to a client. So they might be messaging. You, asked him for something that isn't going to fit with any of your existing packages. So you just put the price, but the details, and I've got a little one on the screen here. I just wanted to show you how it's going to look. You can see here I will provide you with a video marketing strategy. You still click on the gig when you click custom offer, I'll show you how you send the customer for in a minute. I've just written here Google ads, funnel and video creatives analysis and report. So basically they, it turns out after talking, I thought, well, a video isn't probably the best thing for her. So she wanted to spend $500 on a video, but from everything I was looking at, the problem was somewhere else. So I thought, well actually how about we do like a full breakdown of everything you've got going on with Google ads and analyze your videos and like really give you a value packed plan. It's gonna make you more money rather than just making a video, which is also just something good to do as well. If you think that they are not going down the right path by buying new services, then actually tell them, well, I think this is gonna be better for you. You can even jump on a call, charge $100, talk for an hour. You can whatever you think helps people, business owners on five are looking for someone to help them. And if you always thinking about what's best for their business, then it's really going to come across and people who appreciate that. So you can see I've just put a little description when our Zoom call, keyword research and PPC setup seven-day delivery so you can pick the delivery time as well. It was 500.366. And we'll just go through I just want to show you quickly when you're in the message1, say you, say you're talking to a potential client. This button down here, create an offer, you click that, and that's how you're going to get to the point where you can put the details in. You just need the, you click on the gig that's related to. And then you put in a brief description, the delivery time and the price. Very simple. And I've got a couple of tips here that are just going to help you out as well. When the client when the client's requirements don't fit in your basic standard or premium packages. You can just send a custom offer in the messages if they're messaging you and they're also great. This is what I used to do when I started out. So I'd have one simple like for example, it could be a 15-second video, could be one landing page, one design or three designs. Instead of doing the packages, you've just got one basic offer. And then when you talk to them and say, okay, so whilst the problem, what do you think you need? Okay, how about we do this, this and this? I can do it for $500 or something like that. So basically if you're talking to the client and you've got 11 package, what you can actually do is they can't really compare your price in the custom offer to your packages because you've only got one offer. So for example, you can have one video, 20-second video ads and is say $300 or whatever the price is. But then you have more conversations. A lot of the time people are mastered and say, I love your work, but can you do something one minute long? And then you say, yeah, tell me a bit more and I'll send you a custom offer. Here's just a little example, extra dot there, unnecessary. You can add in your gig description. When you fell in the description on your gig, either at the end, the call to action, you can say. So if you're ready to go, simply odds are the basic package. Or if you need anything extra, drop me a message and I'll send you a custom offer. So you can have, you can still do custom offers and the multiple packages, but just a little strategy is to have one offer. And then as you talk to customers, you find out what they need and so all and what you can help them with. And you send them a custom offer for a package. But you can't have just custom offers. That's one thing that used to bother me because most customers don't fit in perfectly in each package and I don't want it to be confusing. And I also wanted to always charge more based on the value I'm gonna provide. If you've got like a 15-second video for a $100, and then you say, Oh, I'll do your 30-second video show, I'll send you a custom offer for $500. That's not gonna make sense because the price between your basic 15-second video in your custom offer doesn't make sense. But if you have a 15-second video for a $100, and then you say, okay, well I'm make you a 15-second video and I'll optimize it for Facebook, YouTube and Instagram has 250. While they're actually in their head, they get in three videos for the $100. There's just some ideas of how you can do it. And I've got an example here of how to select custom offer suggests that kind of thing. I would say, Hey, thanks for the message short, I can make you a worm video and adapt it for Facebook. Youtube and Instagram. First-pass will be with you within seven days. How is $500? A lot of people say in sales, not to ask them, but I it's just the way I tightened speak. How is 500 is quite casual. And they usually just say, yeah, cool or oh, well, actually, to be honest thinking about it, I've rarely ever had anyone say thus bit expansive because at the end of the day, if they've seen the gig and they're already talking to you, they've got an idea of the prices anyway, but yeah, so there you go. There's custom offers for you and some advice on how you can sell it. And here's just a few examples you can see customer does this is what it looks like in your sales. So October, November, within less than a month, I had 3 seven hundred fifty five hundred one hundred. So you can also, when you're in the gig, when you're actually working on the gig, if they need anything extra, that's not already included, that you haven't covered. You say, Oh, okay. Yeah, I can make those changes. I'm going to need to charge a bit more. How's another $100? Is that okay? I'll send you an offer now and then you send a custom offer for the extra. That's pretty much it on custom offers. Just wanted to add a little update here because I know that's another part of the pricing. All right. See you in the next one. 11. Step 4. Write Your Delicious Description: All right guys, welcome back. We're almost there. You're almost at the point of launching your gig and publishing your gig. I realized this is getting a bit long, It's getting a bit deep. But trust me, what you're going to learn in this module is going to translate to all your marketing in the future. So I realized you can't just write a gig description. You have to learn the fundamentals of copyright in, I've actually put together, this is pretty much a little crash course in copyrighting, which is going to help you write forever more if you have no copyright in experience on minimum copyright and experience, I'm going to show you what copyright in ears and how to apply it to your Fiverr Gig so that you can convert those people that land on your page. But I won't tell you all now because I've got a presentation made, so let's just get straight into the presentation. Stay with me. As usual, I recommend watching the video in its entirety and making notes. Then going back to fill in your description in the Google Doc. Come back and watch the video again if you need to remember donors better than perfect. Right now with this course, I am thinking there's things that aren't perfect, things I want to change, but if I keep doing that, I'll never get it done. So in this situation I'm actually leading by example. So this is the gig inscription. This is what it looks like when you create a new gig, you can see a bit of my gig. And if you stay to the end, I'm going to show you my actual copy for my gig. This is what it looks like. You can see 1200 characters down there. What we're going to learn in this module, the importance of copyright in a simple copyright and framework, A-I-D-A, which has been used forever with examples applied to various freelance niches. So you can apply it to your Fiverr Gig. Essential copyright and elements that you want to include. Examples throughout. And then at the end there's an FAQ section, but that's pretty straightforward, frequently asked questions. And you're finally your action tasks today will be to write your delicious description. See what I did there. Copywriting. Copywriting is the act or occupation of writing text for the purpose of advertising or other forms of marketing. The product called copier sales copy is written content that aims to increase brand awareness and ultimately persuade a person or group to take action. So as persuasive writing in, persuading people to take action, which is exactly what we wanted to do when they land on your gig. The importance of copyright in the very first words on your gig description and show your audience of viewer whether you really understand them. This is your best chance to convert anybody that clicks without a gig description, they are more likely to click away. And you've got 1200 characters to get your viewers to buy or leaves. So it's really important what you use for those 1200 characters, which is quite short. So it's probably the most important skill you can learn in the Internet age besides sales, copyright and, and sales fundamentals will never change. But for example, video editing software might change. It's a very high paid skill on its own if you can become a copyright and get results. And this is going to apply to many areas, not just your description, everything you do from now on. So social media posts, website copy titles, prices and descriptions. It all benefits from understanding copy. A slight change in your copy. It could be the difference in sale or no sale, but do not worry, you will improve over time. But we can get head-start now with this course. So A-I-D-A, a simple copywriting framework that stands for attention, interest, desire, and action. So we need to get their attention January Interest, create desire, and then get them to take action. You want them in an emotional state ready to take action. So let's start with attention or hook. Your first sentence or two in your description should be designed to call out your viewer, who are they? What are they searching for? The business owners, entrepreneurs. Are they looking for a website ever done any more sales or conversions? You call that immediately. You talk to the person so they know that you're talking to them. For example. There's various types of hooks as well. So I'll give you a couple of examples here. So everybody thinks they need a video curiosity hook. So it generates curiosity. Obviously, I'm alluding to the fact that you might not need a video. Nobody clicking your posts. That's pain appeals, appealing to their pain. The pain of nobody has clicking their posts. If you make graphic designs or posts, or for copywriters, for example, most copyright is don't know what it's like to be a coach. So you're kind of, it's information is a fact, but it's like you're going to tell a story as well. This is imagine a copywriter writing copy for coaches. They start with this headline than a coach who's reading is gonna be like, oh, you've just eliminated all the other copywriters because you're a coach and a copywriter. Landing page not converting. If you're a landing page designer, again. There's a pain point there. So people are searching for a landing page designer. So through your research and your understanding, you know that people won't conversions on their landing page. That's what they're really looking for. How about a programmer before you hire another programmer? Read this. Again, curiosity, it's going to make people move from one step to the next step. I think Joe sugar man said, copyright in his making. People read the first bit, then the second bit, from the second bit to the third bit, from the third bit to the fourth bit, That's what we're trying to get them to do while adding the elements we need. Now interests. So you've got them listening, you need to create interests so you can bake them into listening, like on YouTube videos. Watch until the end to see X. Or like I did in this video where I said if you stay till the end, which I hope you will anyway, I'm going to show you my gig copy. That just so happens to be at the end. Like a top ten list. You won't believe number two. People are gonna want to know what number two is, or you can start telling the story. You want to show you understand. You want to emphasize, empathize with the viewer. I understand the pain you're in. You've tried this, this, and this. And you've got to say, you're, you're trying to show them that this is a new solution. You can also throw some rocks at your competitors. Just be careful and do it tactfully. So like most other video editors are doing this, this, and this is why it's wrong. What you're doing is you're demonstrating your knowledge and why you do things differently. If this is too much, just bear with me, it will make sense at the end when we go through some examples. For example, nobody clicking your posts. Well the truth is most people just copy and paste the same old Canva graphics. And they aren't paying attention to what actually converts. And then you can go into say and how you do things differently. This is for graphic designer kind of thing. Here's another example, landing page, not converting. Well, it's most likely down to three core issues. Then you're going to demonstrate your knowledge when you explain the three core issues. Because it's going to show that you know what you're talking about. And it's going to make pupil think about what might be wrong with their landing page. And that you can fix it. By the way, make sure you are continually asleep, learning and understanding and improving understanding your audience and pain points. And keep looking at the competition and what they're doing right and wrong. So this is just a little prompt that I wanted to put n. So this is a lifelong process. You don't have to know everything now. But if you are saying people are doing things wrong, you have to have the answer and you still have to get results. What a lot of people do wrong is they say, I make videos that get results. But do they even get the results? Do they have the evidence? Can they prove it until they know what gets results? That's where you've got to go deeper and the deeper you go into B and that specialist that actually knows and actually delivers, the more you can charge, because that's what people want. So you've hooked them, you've generated interests, now, you've got to build some desire for you, so you want to deliver your solution. So remember, generally in sales and online, people have tried and failed lots of things before they got to your gig. They've probably had ten or 15 other designers or video editors. They've had a lot of bad experiences. I think about 80% of the stuff I've bought I've never used. Because by the end it's just not quite right. You can create desire through various methods. Ultimately, you want to make them believe that you're the one that can get them results. And you're the one that you can do this through various means. So you can show them, you understand, you can show them a new solution. You can show you do something that others don't. You can share your history and your credentials, and you can share your successes. So these are all elements that build your credibility. Here's a bonus tip. Don't rely on being cheap and given unlimited revisions. This is a classic mistake that sets the completely wrong frame, shows you don't value your own services. And if you rely on unlimited revisions, they don't want unlimited revisions. They don't want to spend time going back and forth. They want to pay more and get it done right the first time. So saying I'll do anything for you, I'll drop everything. 24 hour delivery, unlimited revisions, $5, all that is all cheap and it's all cheap mindset and you'll attract those kind of customers. So here's some examples for desire. So after the hook and the intro, you've tried XYZ and it didn't work. Well, my name is Ryan. After three years of trying to make videos for my own business, I realized what other video editors doing wrong. They use fancy graphics and templates, but they're not thinking about conversions. As a business owner myself, I know what it takes to make a convert in video, and that's why in this video, in this gig, I'm gonna give you a video made by a business owner. For a business owner. I wrote that in two seconds earlier, but it just shows you're saying, you might think this, you've hooked them. You show you understand them. They've tried something before, but this is why this is gonna be different this time. That's what's gonna make them. That's what gets me the kind of reviews where they say or when they send me a message and say Ryan erasure gig, I feel like you're the guy is because I understand what they need and it just flows. So here's another example for a landing page designer. See the thing is we're most landing page designers and programmers. They simply focus on the design and not what actually converts the Copy. This gig, I won't just design your landing page, but I'll design it around your copies so that it flows seamlessly and keeps people scroll them from 1 to the next, all the way down to your Buy Now button. So what are we doing here? We're saying again, you've tried by inland and pages. Basically a marketing, nice design will look nice and draw attention. But if the offer, if the message isn't clear, kind of like your thumbnail, we'll get to creating a gallery gig and a thumbnail. The thumbnail could be great, but then if you read the page and the person doesn't really understand, you'll end up with something pretty, but it's not going to convert, it's not going to turn that into sales. Were saying you won't just get the landing page design. It will be designed to go with your copy to keep people flowing. It's just adding something a little different there. Finally a third example, graphic designer. See the thing is we're most sellers. They use copy and paste graphic design templates on Canva. They don't understand the importance of keeping things on-brand and designed to convert. Yes, I may charge a little more, but everything is custom-made to get you the result you need, which isn't just a pretty design, is more clicks, leads and sales. But like I said before, if you're going to promise that, then start learning and understanding what does get more clicks, leads and sales. And that will get you understanding marketing better, your market yourself better, and you get the client's better results. Before the action part. In the freelance gig, you might want to add something like I say, what you get in this gig, scroll, stop in intro, converting, copy, professional animation, etc. So make it descriptive and attractive. So this would probably be in the interest bit I just wanted to reiterate, adds a little breakdown of the service, but even take time to make, I could say animation design graphics, everything but professional animation converting copy instead of animation and copy. See what I mean, nomads and those little descriptions to make it more appetizing. Finally, action is really simple. You've told him all about your service, now it's time to tell them to take action. So here are a few tips. Make it clear and concise what they need to do next every time, even like at the bottom of a page in a post, it's called a call to action. So you tell them what to do next. But you have to be very clear at the end of this course, at the end of these modules, I say every time I go back to the Google Doc, take the action. You need to be told even if you're asking for sales or money, reiterate the results, for example. So if you're ready to drown in likes audio, video ads today. You can also ask them to message you if you need anything else. So sometimes people have questions, so you say, I like to say, so if you're ready, if it seems like a good fit, place the order today it or drop a detailed message. I even say details because I don't like a lot of people will just say, hi, I need a video. They their time waster is, to be honest, that's the truth. The time wasted as I ignore so many masters because it's just high. And a real business owner, I thought I said at the end, a real business owner will put in the effort to tell you what they need to. Because the more effort they give up front, the more you'll understand, the less back and forth. So that's kind of a little red flag as well. On Fiverr you get a lot of people just say, hi, big red flag. Example for, examples for action. Ready to go, simply place your order or drop me a message today. If you want to Pro design this on-brand and actually converts, place your orders today. Not sure if this gigs right for you. Drop me a message, otherwise place your order now. My gate closes when I hit five orders so I can focus on my clients. So if you think I'm right for you, place your order today and let's get started. I want to get started. It's really simple. There's three packages with a few extras. Build your package, Hit order and I'll take care of the rest. I'm not saying if you'd like to while I suppose I do say actually, if this gigs right for you. But otherwise, you still command and you're saying placed the order or don't translate into the sales later on as well. When you say Okay, I'll I'll send you an invoice. When you've paid the invoice, I'll start the work. In the next slide. I'm gonna show you my actual gig to help you. I didn't really want to do this, but please don't copy for two reasons. One, it's just rude, unethical, and probably illegal. And two, it probably won't make sense. If you copy my lights just gone out. It won't it probably won't make sense if you copy my gig word for word, because I've built the brand and the reputation. So it's coming from me and it's the way I speak and everything else I do. So take inspiration from it, but turn it into your own words and please don't copy me. Here's the gig. You don't need to print a video. You need the right message sounds to the right audience on the right platform. Thus the hook, because there's lots of pretty videos, templates, blah-blah-blah. This is where most editors get things wrong. They focus on flashy videos rather than flashy visuals, rather than your offer. Luckily for you, you landed here and then we go into the solution. So problem pain solution. I'll address the three points above using my battle tested systems to make sure every second counts when it comes to increase your conversion rates. If you're looking for high-quality copied designed to convert professional level adults in an animation, scroll stopping image message in an imagery. First-class UK based communication throughout, you're in the right place. I work best with digital services, apps, testimonial, mashups, online consultants. There's not might not be the basket for drop ship in fashion items, e-commerce in general. Reason I did that was because that first of all, drop shippers on the audience I want to target. Every time I've worked with a drop shipper, They just seem too and I don't want to generalize, but it's based on a history of probably five out of five bad instances where they wanted to haggle me down. They want it to be cheap. They're young and they're, they don't understand the value behind one good ad is all you need. And yet there's also other sellers who are really great with drop ship and videos. So I just recommend they go there. But also what I'm doing, if I'm saying I don't want to work with these guys, these guys are actually going to be qualified. They're going to feel qualified. And they're gonna be like, I believe that you work best with these people because I'm not saying I can make any video in any niche. I'm saying I work best with these guys and not these. So if you were if you were an online consultant, you'd be like, Oh, you work well with online consultants. That means I specialize kind of like what we talked about earlier. It's still see this cake, then you're in luck. My gate closes when I max out to ensure I deliver the best service to every client. So if you think my gig is right for you, please place the order now or drop me a message today. So let's just have a look. Hock. You don't need to print a video, you need the right message, blah-blah-blah, story. You can also break it down as hook story offer. Hook problem solution, credibility offer. There's lots of ways to look at it. But hook story, this is where most editors go wrong, blah, blah, blah. And problem solution. If you're looking for high-quality copy, blah, blah, blah, you're in the right place, then we've got the qualification. I work best with you and not with you. And then we've got the action or the offer. So I've put a reminder of this in the Google Doc as well. Faq section, it comes below description and I noticed it there, so I thought I better put it into this video. So pretty simple if you think clients will have any questions, how do older blah-blah-blah, if you get repeat question from from buyers, you can fill them out on the FAQ on the description page. And if there's anything actually that you couldn't add in your description, you can put them in FAQs and you can always update them later. In my experience, nobody reads them. Maybe they do, but I still get lots of masters asking the same stuff that's in the FAQs. So this is what it looks like. Questions, have you made loads of people ask, have you made videos for XYZ? And I pretty much can make a video in any niche. But even if I haven't, I know I could. So the question is kind of redundant because if I say, they're basically saying, Can you make me a video in this niche? But they feel like if you haven't made one, like, Can you make me a video for a dentist? Imagine you're a graphic designer. And somebody said, Have you made a video graphic design for a dentist and you said no. It doesn't mean you can't. So anyway, how do I get started? Pretty obvious, but you can still ask people, you can still tell people, placed the order of message me. Will you appear in my video or do my voice-over? I don't do that. And can you take a video or photo? I don't do that either. I don't do any footage. I just do design copyright and editing an animation. Everything from my laptop and I won't appear in anyone's video. This is a really good place. Because if people ask you the same questions, you can say, please take a look at the FAQs and get back to me. Also, there's an extra little step. I didn't really want to make this module any longer, but the work process, you can now add your work process steps and what's included. To be honest, I think it's all a bit much. But you can do there. So you can put how the process goes, requirements, research, script writing. You can also put this in your description. So I used to have a version where I said, here's how it works. One place, the order to collect the assets. Three, you get back to work and our work on your video for we can revise it five completely order. You can add that in. But you still want your hook, you still want your store and you still want your offer. So guys, I know that's been a lot and feel free to go back and forth through the video. Hopefully you took some notes. If not, there's reminders in the Google Doc and don't worry, it doesn't have to be perfect, but I didn't want to just tell you to create a description. I wanted to show you how I do it. So hopefully you enjoyed and got value from that queue rate, a delicious description. So we're almost there. Keep it up where we're going. Great. Put what you learned to work. Update your Google doc with your delicious description. Remember copyright and his lifelong practice. You'll get better. Take these tips, apply them to all of your marketing. You can hook story off or on your Facebook posts In your Instagram. When you are done, move on to the next step. Also, please drop a comment if you find a value in the course and please feel free to leave me a review if you're getting value from this course, I worked really hard on given you absolutely everything you need to succeed. I want to make this the best value from any course that you've bought. So it's time for you to create your description, go back to your document, make sure you get that done. Don't take too long and it 1520 minutes. And get to the next module. You can always go back and make things better. Thanks for watching. I'll catch you in the next one. 12. Step 5. Submit Your Requirements: Guys, welcome back. We're two steps away from finally publishing this gig. If you're still here, congratulations. I'm sure a few people have dropped off by now, but obviously the ones that stick through and actually hit Publish are the ones that are gonna be in it to win it. Also on that note, remember when you think there's lots of competition, think about even going through this course, having the doubts, thinking it's not going to work, actually taken action. These are the things that separate the people who are gonna succeed from the people who aren't. So, you know, your competition is already wiped out from the people who take action. In this next step, you've got to put the requirements, which is basically a list of questions that the client will that you can ask the client before they start the order. So the order doesn't start until they filled in the questions. And if you don't know already, basically your delivery time starts ticking down from when they submit the requirements with all the questions. So what you wanna do in the requirements is you want to ask and be very specific and say, I need this to get started and they have to agree that they've submitted everything they need. Most of the time, you'll have to go back for something. But basically the requirements don't be lazy with them. Be very specific and direct and we'll get into it. This won't be a long module, but essentially this is how you prepare. And I'll give you some tips along the way. Of course, the requirements section is where you collect information, the gig time, it does not start until the client is filled in the requirements, like I just said, you can choose to give the client short paragraph answers, long answers, attach files and multiple choice questions. I never use the attached files. It's always ask for a link to a Dropbox or Google Drive with all the assets for this project. Here is just basically what it looks like, what the requirements look like. So you can see free tax-free tests. I put free texts and there's also a button where it says required and I click required on every one. That means they can't progress until they filled it in. So here's some tips. Be specific, don't be shy. For example, please leave a folder with assets that can be used in the video. Please don't leave a drive with hundreds of folders or please attach a high-res PNG of your logo. Asked for examples of styles that they like so you can meet the expectations.

Also make all boxes required. Like I said, they can always write an a F if it's not required.

I asked please get it all organized so that I can just focus on doing what I need to do. Then please leave anything, any additional information you think will help the project here. That's it, really simple, submit your requirements. Put what you've learned to work. Go back to the Google doc, Put your requirements in there. Just think of anything that's going to help your projects. And you are one more step away from launch. And so there's a really easy one. Lascaux, get it. See you in the next one. 13. Step 6. Stop The Scroll: All right guys, welcome back. This is the final stage. So basically if you've just done your requirements, now you're onto the thumbnail or the gig gallery. There's a few things to take note of in here. But again, we're really close, so congratulations if you've got this far, hopefully you've learned a ton, you feeling excited and you're ready to go and publish the gig soon, I'll create another gig and you guys can see it in action. So here is what it looks like when you get to this part, it says encourage buyers to choose, but your gig by feature and a variety of your work. So you can put images in here. So this could be images of your designs or emit or a thumbnail or anything like that. So you can use one image as a thumbnail. That will be the thumbnail is the image that pops up in the feed on Fiverr. But you can put images of your work here. You could create one image with a few examples. If you're a designer, if you're a programmer or someone that uses numbers of stats, there's something coming later on. So you can see here that your thumbnail is gonna look like they're so basically, let me just talk about the thumbnail a second. So this is a good thumbnail. So the thumbnail, you can see this is actually a video, so they've created a video and you can play the video. So you can have a video thumbnail. You can see here there's two awesome looking designs here. And also notice people stand out more like as humans, we're all drawn to people. Here's a great YouTube thumbnail design. So with your thumbnail, what you want is you want big bold text, contrasting colors, and a face or an image. It's very much about having a colorful contrasty images. This is the style right now. So basically, these are what you want your thumbnail to look like. So you want your headline or your copy in your thumbnail. So it could be like your gig headline or it could be examples of your work is all going to depend on you and your niche. And now you can either hire somebody to create your thumbnail or I'm going to put one little extra bonus video after this video with a free quick tutorial on how you can make your own thumbnail on Canva when I'm getting ready to create my own gig, which I'll also run you through. So you can see here these are some examples of some thumbnails. This is a professional fight business header, customize your needs with a few examples of headers to Facebook covers, boxes, professional boxes, the logo here. And then you've got the YouTube thumbnail. So hopefully you've got a good idea. You can see, I think this one pops the most and this one, and they've both got people and they've both got big bold text. The thumbnail should stop the scroll, look professional and enticing for people to click. This is not to be confused with the video. So you can add a video, but there will still be a thumbnail for the video, which I'll show you in a minute. Tips one scam, people by people's faces always work well. Bold colors and contrast. And if you can't design yourself, just hire a designer for cheap or create your own thumbnail and Canada, Like I said, I'm gonna follow up with the tutorial on how you can do that. If you're going to hire a designer for your thumbnail, make sure to check the portfolio of the salad matches the quality of the thumbnail because a lot of the time there'll be a really good-looking thumbnail for the seller. And then you look at the portfolio and it's not as pretty much not the same person sometimes. And the quality of the work is worse, makes sure you practice the same. So put your best foot forward, yes, but make sure that all your workers at the same column E. So I've had lots of bad projects by people who haven't taken my course clearly advertise a high-quality project, charge $5 and they obviously outsource it to a cheap team and you get back a lack in project. The communication isn't there. And this is what happens if you charge too little. You need to do a lot. And if you're doing a lot, you can't focus on the clients. Then like I've just a waste of time. Usually when I buy somebody $5. Not only that, but more recently in when I bought a thumbnail, they didn't use the right picture. We had three rounds of revisions. They didn't read what I put in the requirements. They didn't lead the project. So remember this from me. I'm both a Fiverr seller, Anna Fiverr buyer. It's a bad experience and I would pay more to not waste. I'd rather spend $500 well than waste $10 because it's also wasting my time. So don't be that seller. This is where your value lies in leading the project. And if it takes longer, initially, just make sure you get them the best possible project. And also I'm gonna go through some communications from sales and lead in. I'm going to get into that after we've published the gig because it'll take awhile to get messages anyway. And I'm going to show you what to do when you do get that. So on the video, a video you can put a video in must be shorter than 75 seconds and smaller than 50 megabytes. So here you can see I put a video that I shot the video talking to the camera. I edited over the video and you can see there's a play button and that is my thumbnail. I've got I chose the frame that says you don't need a video because I think it's quite it's that curiosity thing again from the copy me and there's a face and people like, What has this guy got to say? If using a video, what you could also do, I've seen a logo designer just show clips of his sketching, of his drawing. And he's one of the top rated salaries and I think he was making $20 thousand or more a month. And not just at the video just shows a next level of care. It shows that you are all in on this project, right? So if you can show off your best work in a real, but again, you can just use a thumbnail. Remember, we're not trying to be perfect now, but I'm giving you ideas for the future. A video of your design in screen capture your process adds up to show, you know, what really goes into it. And the other one is taught to the camera and add it over. So it's called a video sales letter, like I do. You can read to the camera and edit over your design. You can read your copy, you can read your script, the camera for 75 seconds, or hire somebody to edit your video so you can talk to the camera, film the bits that you want shown, and then you can go and hire someone to edit the video and you can use that. But I will say don't use a video for the sake of it. If you've got an idea and it needs a video than use it, but don't just use a video for the sake of it. If you're a programmer or say you do Google ads or Facebook ads or something like that. What you could do is you can drag and drop a PDF, which might be a consultation or a strategy or anything that would be shown on a PDF. You can drag them into documents as well so you can show off your work here. I don't have any examples of documents, but you could use this section for stats, analytics, reports, plans, strategies, basically anything that's going to be in a document you can upload to that part as well. So again, here's some scroll stopping thumbnail designs. And your action task here is to create your gig thumbnail video and your gallery. So put what you've learned in this module to work. So if you've got three images of projects you've done, go and find those images and save them ready to put in, go and get a thumbnail created. If you can't hire and you can't design, you can go straight to the next video now, and I'll show you a quick tutorial on how to make a thumbnail using Canva for free. So when this step is done, you can actually get onto publishing your gig. You can take everything from your document into your gig, but you need the thumbnail already. So I recommend get the thumbnail ready or watch the next video for the thumbnail tutorial. And then after that, when we get to publish your gig, I'll just walk through life. Me, put in me creating a gig from scratch by dragging and dropping everything I have in the document into the gig. So you can watch that and then you can finally go and do it yourself. You should be well-prepared. Now I'm ready to publish that gag. And then there'll be a couple of more videos of me talking about what to do after the gig, even though this is about launching your gig. I wouldn't, unless I left you completely happy with the value I've provided, I wouldn't be happy. So we'll talk about some basic ways to sell to customers who messaged you some things they might say in questions they might ask, and how to sell over messenger and a handful of messages. How to deal with client communications, revisions and things like that, and how to get your first client. Hopefully, you've enjoyed the next action tasks. Now, go and create your gig thumbnail or video, or head over to the next video where I'll show you in Canvas just quickly how to make a quick thumbnail in Canva. Thanks for watching. See you in the next one. 14. Step 6. (Part 2) Make a Thumbnail FREE in Canva: All right guys, welcome quick little bonus video for you here, how to make your own design on Canva for free. Canva, canva.com, CAN va.com. As you can see here, my absolute mess of a thumbnail because I'm really not a very good designers. So I actually recorded another video where I tried showing you how I would design my own thumbnail. But I don't because I'm just not a designer and it looks terrible. So what you can do if you're not like me, is you can go to canva home and you can find templates. If we go to templates, then we scroll down here. Let's have a look. Social media. So here we go. This already looks like a great template. So I can put video sales letter here. And I'll just drop the font size down until it all fits. All I've done is I've clicked on the text in the template and just drop in the size down until it all fit so we can make the box wider here. I'm just going to have to adjust this. Now. I'm gonna put copyrights in. And editing here. I can just drag this across video sales that are copyright and an Edison. Now obviously we don't want him in there because that's not me. So that would just be weird. So what I'm gonna do now is I'm going to, I've uploaded a picture of me. I've already cut the background out. But if you want to cut the background out, there's loads of programs that you can use to cut the background out. Just Google background remover. There's even one in Canva. So you can use that if you want to. So here we go. I've already got a picture of me here. That is good enough. So can put videos, sales, latter copyright, and an editor. Now you can see obviously it's hiding behind my sweatshirt. If I go, if I put it white, now that it's fine on the sweatshirt and now this is too bright. Now if I put it red, you can see it. And I'll just move me across a bit. Video sales letter, copyright and an editor of a C, a five up here doesn't really mean anything. So what I could do is if that doesn't mean anything, I can bring the video editing up, video sales letter, copyright, copyright in and editing can go here. And then what I might even do is I might add a search for a tick, see if there's a tick and elements. So you can search elements here. So if we put tick and I can actually change the color of this tech as well. So I want like a bright green. There we go. I like that tip. So now I can just move this up. If we just duplicate that tick, I'm actually going to delete this one and then duplicate this one because I want them the same size. So copyright and Addison, I wish there was three things there. And what I could also add is I might, I might add five-stars. So for port five-star, boom. You can add the five-stars as well. Even that, that's good enough. I would be happy with that. If you're not a good designer, you can. And you can't afford to hire anyone. You can just use Fiverr and it's really good and really easy. Obviously. You need some design understanding. Certain things, space and things like that. Like whitespace you want to be, you want to be careful of. So now I'm gonna go click, click, click, click, click. I can select all this and I can move it up so it's all halfway. Now it's perfectly balanced. Then I can bring my face up or maybe I'm holding, I'm just dragging up and down here, keeps it all the same size. Then if you wanted to change your background as well, you can change the background. If you click here, you can go to the fonts. There's a ton of fonts here. But I kind of liked the font that they already had. I trust their design judgment better than me. So you can see this is looking okay. So now this background, you could use an image. See here there's a different image for this background. So what I could do, I wonder if I can grab that background and click copy and then go back. Yeah, there we go. I could use that background, but I kind of liked this background. It works with the color. Yeah, that's pretty much it. And then what I'm gonna do is I'm gonna go to Share. I'm going to go to Download and then keep it at P&G download. This is going to download now. Now, if I click Open, I have my thumbnail. So there we go. There's just a quick video on how you can create your own thumbnail on Canva completely for free. Just find a template, swap the words out. Triangle, just some basic design things. Think about the space. You want. Enough room around everything to breathe. Picture of a C helps convert battery that builds trust. Even if I look a bit serious. Then you can click to swap out the fonts you can collect, swap out the background. You can upload any image you want. You could grab this guy and just put video, sales letter. You know, you can really easily just get on Canva, swap things out, swapped the picture, and make a quick thumbnail. I hope that helps guys when you're ready, when you're ready, when you've got everything together, go through the document, make sure you're happy with everything. And then the very next video, we're gonna be publishing the gig, which is amazing. So I'm going to be going through creating my gig, dragging everything in life just to show you. And then I'm gonna hit Publish, and then it's down to you to go and hit Publish and then come back for the additional training after. Because as long as your videos, as long as your gig is out there, people could be looking at people, getting eyes on it. So that's where you want to do. You want to put yourself out there, then you want to keep working on building, promote input and yourself and other places using everything that you've learned in this course. So I hope you've enjoyed this video and I'll see you in the next one. 15. Step 7. PUBLISH!: Hi guys, welcome back. This is the moment we've all been waiting for where we actually create the new gig. So let's just get straight into it. What we're gonna be doing is we are gonna be taken all our information from our perfect Fiverr Gig and we're going to be copying it over. As you can see, I've already filled everything out here. I'll talk you through what I've done and hopefully you get some inspiration along the way as well. So you can do this in two ways, really. You can just skip this video, go to create a new gig and put it in yourself. Or I recommend watching the video through, then going and doing it yourself. Or if you want to pause the video and work along with me, that's fine as well. What we're gonna do here is we're going to click create a new gig. And we're gonna start copying and pasting it in. So I'll show you my gig as we go. I've got my gig title here. So if you remember, I wrote, I will write and edit a converting VSL video sales letter YouTube ad, except I want to make a little change to that. I will write and edit or converting VSL video sales letter for YouTube ads. Then in category title cannot contain I will. Oh, I've already got I will. So we've removed that because I will is already there. So all you're going to copy and paste is after I will. Then what we're gonna do is go down to category. And like I explained earlier, my categories is going to be video and animation. And I was stuck between video ads and no short video ads. Fu remember as well, I'll type YouTube ads into search as a buyer and you can see it comes in video marketing or short video ads. So I know if I'm in those two categories, I'm in the right category. So in this instance I'm going to click short video ads. Now it's asking me for platform, obviously just YouTube. You cannot click multiple platforms here. I remember once I swapped my platform to Facebook and I got more clicks, but this is very much for YouTube. So if you've got various platforms, just click one video type, I'm going to put other and I'm going to write video sales letter because I don't think it's a live action video or an animated video. I actually write the scripts, they shoot the video and then I edit it. And video orientation, I'm getting asked here I can do vertical, square, horizontal or any, and I think I can click all three. But to be honest, is mostly horizontal because YouTube is that shape. And then for my search tags, I've got my tags written here. I'm just going to copy my tags. I'm going to paste them in and just do them one at a time. So YouTube ads, YouTube ads campaigns. And if you remember, you can go to buy-in and you can start typing your keyword and it's gonna give you some ideas. Youtube ads, campaigns, YouTube video ad. Then if I go back, video sales letter and VSL, video sales letter and VSL. So if people put these search terms and they're more likely to show you, is more likely to show you. List tag less cannot contain tags with more than 20 characters. So that's probably YouTube ads campaigns. So I might put YouTube ad campaign, shortened it down, so now it fits. Now remember pricing. So if I worked on my worksheet, so one package or three, so I'm just going to be put in one package. So I'm gonna turn off offer packages up here. Now we've got basic, which is name your package, which was down here. So name your package up to three minute VSL copy editing. Something that you can do here as well is I like to put capital letter. I like to make this look nice. So I put capital letters for the main words. So minute copy and editing. I've just got capital letters. I suppose you could even put two, but I will generally, generally leave too small. This is just, it's almost a little design element, but I like it to look good. Let's see if we can get video sales letter. No, it's too long. So for the title, we're just going to have that. And then the description where we can have up to a 100 characters. I'm going to go back. I'm going to copy my description. Scroll stuff in hook converting, copy, high-quality editing, an animation, effects included. Then there we go. So scroll stop and Herc converting copy. Again, what I could do if I want to do is I can make it look like a headline with the capital letters, but I wonder if that will make it too hard to read. So I'm just going to keep it like this. Scroll stopping, hook converting copy and high-quality as an animation. B-roll as effects included. If I can get music. I can't get music in there. In fact, I'm just going to change this up a tiny bit. I'm gonna put consultation copy. Copyright in an editing, one hook. Body copy. Music and B roll included. Okay, cool. So now we've got the three main things, consultation copyright in United States. One hook, B-roll copy music and B-roll body copy music and be wrong included. I've got on my gig on the delivery time, I've put ten days. So we're going to put ten days video editing and script writing. We're going to put that in their revisions. I just put on to I can put 180 seconds. So it's three minutes. So I'm gonna put a 180 seconds because it's 123 minutes is up to three minutes. 180 seconds is the maximum runtime. Number of length variations. There is no, I don't think you have to select anything we'll see now. So number of length variations, like how many different lengths are included? There isn't just 11 orientation. I'm just going put one for each. Product Symmetry, background music included. And then we go over to the price and it's 1200. So I'm gonna put 1175 actually. Let's have a look. 1200. Yeah, we'll just keep it at 12 hundreds. Just a flat price. Now we've got extra services. So if I go down to my upsells, write any potential upsides here. Additional orientation and faster delivery are both default ones here. Let's just put additional orientation when 75 for one extra fast delivery three days and also gonna put 175 in there. Then I'm going to put add gig extra and three extra hooks. I wonder if I can add research. Yeah, I'm putting consultation research copyright in an additive one hook copy. Yeah, we've got research in there as well. I'm just trying to increase the perceived value in the description consultation research copyright in. Cool. So now when we go down to three extra hooks I've written here, I will write three. I will write and edit three extra hooks for you to test with. Or I will write, edit, and render three extra hooks for testing for an extra 475 and an extra two days. There we go. So this is the price in subscriptions. So you can offer people subscriptions if you want to give them a discount, saved three months. If they order three months worth now one month, three months, they get 10%. But I'm just keeping it simple one-off, three upsells than I'm gonna save and continue. Briefly describe your gig. So I've got my gig description down here. So I'll copy and paste it in and you can read it. I'll also show you a little bit about editing. The gigs are designing it. So first of all, here's something else I did when I wrote it originally. I went to Format, No, sorry, tools, word count. And it shows you the words and characters. These are the characters on this entire page. But the gig description, I did that on its own page first. And it came to, if we scroll down 1108 characters, so I know that this should fit. Here we go. So you can see at the bottom it tells you how many characters you've used. Now what we can do, I've got the, got the description in here, so I'll read this first if you're a coach consultant or course creator. So first of all, I'm going to put capitals for each of the titles here. Coach, consultant, or course creator. Chances are people are searching for the solution you offer on YouTube. What better way to reach your audience than pop up on YouTube one, they are currently searching and stop them in their tracks with the skull scroll stopping VSL. My name is Ryan and I'd be making video ads for nearly five years. And then I've got some bullet points here which I could add the bullet points on. I've made over 1000 videos. I've launched six courses and I've managed, I've managed YouTube ads for course creators for eight months, spending over $150 thousand on the platform. I've also taken every, nearly every YouTube ads course on the planet. It's fair to say, I know a thing or two about YouTube video, video sales letters. Here's the process. So we want to break this up and make it look excite. And so I'm gonna put coach, consultant or course creator in bold. Because that way people coaches consultants and course creators gonna see that quicker. I think this only formats, when you read it on the computer, stop them in their tracks with a scroll stop and BSL, I can make that bold. You can also highlight things. Then as this is more of a title as well, my name is Ryan and I've been creating. I'm actually going to go bold and underline on this whole first sentence. Then I'm going to unhighlight that and scroll stopping VSL. We could also make that yellow. So if you see coach consultant course grade scroll stopping and VSL, what we're doing is we're highlighting the bits because most people actually skim over stuff. And you can play around with this. It is just what, what you like rarely. Now we've shown I understand who they are. What better way to stop them with a score of stopping VSL. My name is Ryan, I'd be making ads for years. I've also taken nearly every YouTube ads course on the planet. It's fair to say I know a thing or two. Here's the process. I'm going to bold and highlight here because I think this is an important bet. This is where we're sort of breaking up. First, I'll collect some details and researcher offer. Do some research. I don't think that sounds as good as researcher offer. Next I'll write the first pass of your VSL. Then when you're happy, down to you to shoot the VSL to the camera. Finally, I'll edit your VSL to a high level so you can get it testing. You can get testing. I only work with a handful of clients at the time so I can get the best results. Therefore, my gig closes at three clients. Place your orders today and let's get to work. Otherwise, drop me a detailed message and I'll reply as soon as I can. Thanks Ryan. If you're a coach consultant, of course, create a chance our people are searching for the solution you offer on YouTube. What better way to reach your audience than pop up on YouTube when they are currently searching and stop them in their tracks with the score Southern VSL. My name is Ryan. I've been making videos for nearly five years. Thousand videos, six courses manage YouTube ads. Taken every course on the planet fat to say, I know a thing about YouTube video sales that as here's the process, sounds good. Place your orders. They now somebody's gonna happen. It's not going to let me save because I've said YouTube so many times. You can see here YouTube too many times. So I've got to remove YouTube a few times. So, which is a little bit annoying. You can't say the same word too many times. Okay, guys, so I had to fiddle around with it a little bit to take out the word YouTube because I had the word YouTube too many times. So all I did was I made some little changes, change YouTube to YT. And basically now it's letting me go through. There's also this milestones feature. It doesn't look like my gigs in an eligible category, which is quite frustrating actually because I want to break this up into milestones. So essentially because I'm writing the copy and then exits in the video, I might get to a point where I write the copy, I deliver it to them, and then they take a month or to edit the shoot the video or they never shoot the video or something changes. So if I break it up into milestones, I get paid halfway. I get paid whatever I set the milestone at. So say it's $1200. I get paid $600 for the copy and then I get paid $600 for the final edit. That means if they don't come back for the second part, I still get paid. Although it's not letting me put the milestones in the for some reason it must not be an eligible category. So I'm actually going to go and look into that myself, but I'm not going to let that hold me back from lunch in the gig today. So now we get down to frequently asked questions. So I'm just going to add FAQs here. My FAQs. Do you record the video? No. I will write the copy. You will record the copy to the camera. I will edit your recording. Then we're going to add that. We're going to add another FAQ. I know they'll ask, will you appear in the video? Will you do voice-over? I'm gonna say I don't do any spokes, person or voice-over work, but I can help you find and hire one. Then finally, do do voice over, so they're both covered in that one FAQ. So here we go. Now I've pasted my description in. Obviously you're following along, so pasted the description and go through your FAQs, put milestones if you want to break up the payments Sony for really large gigs, to be honest, I wouldn't, I wouldn't do that. I wouldn't make it too complicated. And that will save and continue. Now get all the information you need from bias. Get started. So we've got our requirements. So I've got my requirements here, so I'm just going to copy and paste them in. What is your offer? Going to add that. Who is your target audience? Obviously, this is gonna be different for you, but I'm just pasting them in. You can see I've got required here. Who is your target audience? What pains are they typically m before they meet you? That one. What results have you got for your existing clients? That one? Please leave a link to the landing page we are sending people to. Do you have any existing ads? If so, please drop links so we can review. And again, I understand you probably have a ton more to say, so please leave and irrelevant information in here. Okay, great. Okay guys, so now we're onto the final bit where we upload our video. So I've made two mistakes here and I don't want to pretend that I don't make mistakes. I actually want to show you the mistakes so you can see what I've learned so that you don't have to make the same mistakes. So the first thing is I'm making, I'm making a gig for a video sales letter, right? So it would only make sense for me to include a video showing my video sales letter skills with my video. But as I started, I had to come up with an idea so I can work along this course with you. I wasn't actually intended on making a gig for myself, but I wanted to show you step-by-step. So I've made a thumbnail for now. However, if the niche is video related, you 100%. Once you use a video, the idea here is you can get quite matter and you can use your skills to show your skills. So I should pop up and talk a video sales letter to the screen and add it over it to show my video sales. That's a skills. However, I didn't not only that, I took the latest I took the latest Fiverr sizes from a website and I went to add my thumbnail and it's actually given me a different recommended size, 1280 by 769. So the good thing is if you've made this in Canva with Canva Pro, which I think is $10 a month. You can go Canva pro, resize and it will try to keep everything the same but adjust the size. So let's go back and look. In 1280 by 769. Let's go 1280 by 769 here and then copy and resize, and it will make another version, but you can see the sizes of changed a little bit. So what I'll do is I'll just adjust the images so that they fit the new size before I upload them. So you can see YouTube here. I can probably make that a little bit bigger. Got a bit more room now, and probably the same with the copy down here, but I don't want it too big. I like a bit of space on the edges, but again, I'm not a designer. However, overtime, I have learned some design skills. So when I started doing all this stuff, when you start out really you're going to start out. You have to pretty much learn everything as a freelancer because you've got to learn to market your skills. Sometimes you haven't gotten the money to hire a designer to begin. So you've got to learn some basic design, but all those skills compound over time and you develop into a better marketer and designer and everything. So there we go. I could just tweak this a little bit. Just for the sake of this video, I won't mess around too long. On here it's snapping so I can just use the up and down keys just to adjust a little bit. I can hold Shift to select all three of my little ticks. You can actually make them all bigger at the same time. I think that looks good. There we go. And I'm just going to use that. So we'll go share, will go download and you can literally just drag your thumbnail in here. So let's go over to our gig. Drag the thumbnail in. And there we go, boom, there we have it. I declare these materials to create a moment self, my team, blah-blah-blah. Youtube video sales letter. And that is it. Now we hit Save and Continue. Please upload a video. And here we go. Disaster has struck. Absolutely have to upload a video here. Because I've chosen a video gig. I've probably, what I'm gonna do is I'm gonna go back and I'm going to leave a warning which you've already watched by now. So I'm going to add that warning into the video gigs so you don't have a disaster like me. I've got the thumbnail, but I have no choice but to otherwise shoot a video. So for the sake of this course, I am going to go and make a video. I'm gonna have to go and make a video to upload it because I can't come this far. I'm not complete this just when I was about to launch this course. Now I need to make a video. See, we all learn something along the way. So if you're making a video gig, you absolutely have to use a video. It won't let me won't let me go across without a video. So guys, I'll be back when I have a video. Okay, guys, so I have found my gig video for my other gig. It's not ideal, but it's gonna save me shoot in a video. Which, and if I shoot another video, it's going to store me get in this course out. And I really want to get this course out because I think it's great. I've downloaded my video here. You can see my video is downloaded here. I won't play the video right now because I'm not sure that you'll be able to hear it with the screen that I've got this recording setup. But if you're interested in seeing the video sales letter than just let me know, but aren't gonna do, I'm gonna drag and drop my video in here. And that is going to upload as that's uploaded. And let me just explain what's happens next. So as you can see, RCV promo video under review by our trust and safety team, which is great. Then what we do is we click Save and Continue. Almost there. Let's publish or gig and get some buyers role in him. This is amazing if you've reached this screen or you do now is you hit Publish and you can see your gig is open for business spread the word to boost your sales. So here is something that I have done repeatedly for years when I get a client project. If I'm allowed, if the client gives me permission, I take the project and I'll post it on my social medias, and I'll write a little post to promote that project project. And it gets me more buyers on Fiverr. Sometimes five or we'll give you discounts for getting new people in and things like that they save on the fee. So what I'm gonna do is I'm gonna take this fiber link now, and I'm going to copy this link. When we click done. You can see that, right, a write and edit, a convert it first in VSL video sales letter for YouTube. So I can click Preview here and boom, there it is. If you can't see the video yet because the Fiverr review team is reviewing the video, but eventually the video will be playable so you'll be able to play it there. What I would do now is after creating the gig, I've used my social media for years. I've optimize my social media. Here's a little tip for you. A public page, an actual Facebook page won't get as much views as a personal page. So over the years I have completely turned my page into a business profile. It's not a business profile, but I post and I networked and I actually have another course on how to properly attract and close clients on social media by re-posting results and things like that. But you can pretty much, you can pretty much see what I'm doing here by posting on my profile. So what I might do now is if we go to a post here, and also I've got an Instagram Ryan Collins video where I do the same. I'm going to post this link and you can see the preview to the Fiverr Gig is going to come up. So I'll just give you a quick example of how you can post. Now bear in mind my post, my copy is gonna be different to yours. I will write an editor converting video sales letter for YouTube ads for $1200. So what you can see now is I'm going to write a post. Your poster is gonna be different. But things you could do, you could ask family members, you could post a link to your gig. You can ask family members, you can post, say this was your first gig. You could say, Hey guys, I'm trying to get into freelancing. I've been working on my skills for six months. I really understand getting results in marketing in my niche and I want to help a few people. And to do so, if you can help me start my Fiverr Gig and get it rolling, you can get in now at a discounted price, etc. So you can write a post and post that on all your public profile. So that's my advice. Put it everywhere, put this gig everywhere to get some traffic in, even if you get some friends and family to help you out. What I would recommend is obviously, you're not just saying can you go and buy something at $5, give me a five-star review, make sure you do the work practice, the whole process. And at this point, I would now that you've published this gig, before we move on to any additional training or anything, set up your profiles, your social media profiles, optimize them. And then go and post where you don't even have to optimize them yet, but go and post gig. So I'm gonna say, I've made nearly a 1000 video ads over the past few years, with Facebook being temperamental. Recently, I've noticed influx in YouTube, ads been ordered. In fact, I've generated incredible results for my clients, such as and then I'll put at G7 fx, who is now a consistent client. I've actually trained and editor to work with me who is now installed in his business. If you're a coach, consultant or course creator, and you want to stop your perfect client in their tracks with a scroll stop in VSL for YouTube. Head on over to my new Fiverr gig today to get started. Okay, so there we go. So now I've just written a little post using the same frameworks that we use when we wrote our gig. And now I'm just going to hit Post here. And then I can take that post, I can copy and paste that on LinkedIn, instagram, YouTube, Twitter. You can put it everywhere. So obviously it's down to you. It's up to you how much you want to do. But I would highly recommend that you take your results and you post everywhere until you find something that works for you. So if you've made it to this point, if you've hit published, and now you're looking at your first Fiverr gig or maybe a five gig this better than before. Congratulations. Spend the rest of the time, try and to get your first clients in. And when you do get messages, you'll definitely want to know how you can turn those messages into clients and I'll give you examples in the coming videos. So congratulations if you got to this point, seriously, great work. Most people won't get to this point. I'll see you in the next video. 16. Social Media Inbound Client Example: Hey guys, So I just wanted to share with you the result I got from posting that example post on my phi of my Fiverr Gig on my public profile. In the course, obviously I've been showing you how to create your gig pricing and everything like that. But then how did you get your first client? Well, obviously it's gonna be a bit different to me because of how I've built my social media network, which is what I teach in the client blueprint, which is attached and document. But I posted and I wrote life my post using the copyright and skills that we've learned. I've made nearly 1000 video ads we've faced with being temperament or I've noticed an influx in YouTube ads. In fact, blah, blah, blah, talked about results. I posted my $1200 YouTube VSL gig, my brand new gig, and I got, I was surprised actually, I got 36 likes, 12 comments. Somebody asking me, saying they're gonna learn, they're gonna start putting their business on YouTube. But straightaway, I got a message off a guy who owns a huge company. Hey man would love to talk about getting us VSL scripted, but it will be more than three minutes. And I've already set here that this gig is one to three minutes long. And he's saying it's gonna be more than three minutes. And I've already said here that it's $1200. So we already know this is gonna be 1502 thousand minimum. And because I know the company is huge, I'm probably going to go in at three key or something like that. But I just wanted to show you an example of how, remember I started from nothing I started, I was doing this very same thing except changing the word into suit my audience. So it would be like the translation for somebody just starting out would be like, I've been studying video editing for six months. I'm learning how to make videos that can convert. I've made these videos from myself and I've just made my first gig. So please, if you're a family or a friend and you want to try a video for your business, let me make you a video, get it at a discounted rate and be my first success story. You post that and you should get an inbound message like this. And then how to close the inbound message. We go over in the next train. And so I just wanted to give you a proof so you can see exactly how this works on social media as well as Fiverr and how you can get your first five or clients. 17. Congratulations! What Next?: Hey guys, if you're watching this video, I just want to say congratulations, because that means you've actually got through the course and you've published your Fiverr Gig, which means you've taken a huge action. You're gonna get results over most people because most people don't take action, they don't finish courses and they don't get results. So you might be thinking at this point, well, what next, what do I do now? I don't want you to sit there staring at your Fiverr Gig, waiting for somebody to happen because that is the wrong way to get business. So what I would recommend first of all, is take these principles that you've learned and then go and apply it everywhere. Go to social media, go to your Facebook like I did earlier. Write a post like we've learned to write, demonstrate your skills, demonstrate your value in your knowledge. Use the simple messaging framework that I'm gonna show you in the next video so that you can close these inbound leads. Or if you really want to learn to dominate social media, cheeky plug here, I've got a course with a discount linked in the document, the seven-step social media client blueprint. And I showed you how to attract clients on social media. Just wanted to get that out of the way. But ultimately, you don't want to be stuck staring at your gig. You can make new gigs. You can sign up to other freelance sites, or you can take the skills we've learned and you go and push yourself on Facebook, Instagram, Tiktok, Linkedin, Behance, dribbble. If you put if you put all your work out there until you get clients coming in from one place consistently, then you can go deeper on the thing that's working. So my recommendation is go shotgun approach, put your work everywhere and then when something starts work in, narrow down and focus and go all in on what's working. So just a general tip. Do more of what's working too, less of what isn't working. But don't stay still. Use this momentum to go and push yourself on all platforms until somebody asks you, Hey, I love your work. I wonder if you can help. If you don't have any client share, I would spend 18. If your time trying to get clients, you can learn on the job in the creative fields. This is the formula I use. I spent 18% of my time trying to get clients. And every video I make or every client work I make, I try and make 1% better thing within a 100 videos, that's 100% better, but also the compound skills, increasing the, all the videos about and I'm getting paid and I'm learning to get clients and I'm learning itself. These are things freelancers just don't focus on. And it's why you're stuck in group saying how much to charge for a logo. Why can't I get clients? Because you've got to really go and put yourself out there, demonstrate your value using the copywriting techniques. If we've shown until people message you, then you can close them using the messages sequences I teach. Thus the process that I've used. Also if you're full app, remember if your full to put the prices up, if they stopped buying, maybe the price goes too high. That's what I've done. I get four, I put the prices up because it's just supply and demand. And also remember if you feel uncomfortable, don't worry. Your value is what your project is worth to the business owner. It's not your hourly rate. You need to stop thinking about your hourly rate. And lastly, just thinking about how happy you are at urine new hourly rates. Also, there's extra modules in this course for you to go and learn more about your five-year journey. I want to make this course. I want people to come in thinking this is just gonna be another Fiverr course. And I want him to leave saying this basketballs ever, this is like a marketing course. It's amazing. So I want your feedback. So tell me, what do you want to learn more about? What bits did you live, what base did you hate? I really don't mind. I'm open to all the feedback. Just please remember that ultimately I made this course as something to teach you things that actually get results. I didn't want to go through every set in it over because you can just Google that stuff. And I want to spend the time wisely on giving you results. So if you have any good questions of goods suggestions, please let me know. If you haven't already joined the group, make sure you go into the Google doc attached to this course. Joined the group, say hello, I'm in the Fiverr blueprint. There's about 1000 people in that group. It used to be a Fiverr. It used to be a video editing group, but now it's small like a freelance screw. And I love it because I love teaching about freelancing just as much as video editing and animation. Finish the modules in this course during the group. Also, if you know anyone who wants to start freelancing, we'll just send them the link to this course. And you can make $10. They'll learn about marketing and also they get a month free. So you get $10 for referring them. I think you might ask double-check, but you get your referral link, you refer a friend, you get $10. They learn amazing stuff and they get a month free. So if you know anybody saying how do I get clients, I need to set up a five OR gate. Well, hopefully this course is the one for that. And if it's not remember to let me know and I'm gonna make it the basketball service. So you basically get you basically got free coaching. If you just drop the comments, but make sure they're good questions. And this is content that everyone's going to benefit from. So just remember, work smart, get results, report those results to get more clients. If you're full, put the prices up and go and smash your work everywhere until you get inbound sales, be pushing your content, I'll create new content. And then when you get those inbound sales, use the little cells outline that I teach you. And when you get your first sale, get over to my group and say Ryan Joe Scott, my first inbound sale. You're a legend. Thank you very much. Congratulations so far account wait to hear about your results. See you in the next video. 18. Simple Inbound Sales System: All right guys, welcome back. We've got another juicy value packed little presentation here for you. This is the summary of sales things that I've learned over years and I've just made it super simple for you. There's basically three steps to it, so that you literally can't go wrong and you can start closing clients when they come in because there's so many people are viewed your profile, then a percentage of those will click, and then a percentage of those are message. So you really want to make the most out of those messages when they do message you wherever you like sales or not, this isn't really sales. This is more consultant and you'll see why in a minute. But ultimately you've got to make the most of every single message that comes through if you want to get clients make money. So the objective is to forget sales and think about consulting. So what we're really doing is we're finding out the problem like a doctor. We're gonna ask questions until we're sure we can solve the problem. And then we can comfortably say yes we can while the client is spell out the problems. So first of all, you'll see and if you can actually help, then you'll see and if they are also a good fit for you, so you're not an employee, it's a business-to-business transaction. You want to see if they're a good fit for you. You're going to filter out time waster this. You don't want to give away your ideas. So we're gonna learn to do it in a way where we're not given away ideas and you want to charge based on the value you provide. Here's three steps. You welcome. This is specifically for five, by the way. Otherwise, there would be some rapport at the start, which I suppose you can do in the welcome, but ultimately they've already seen your gig and spoke message do first. So you're going to welcome, you're going to consult and you're going to close. When a client first messages, you simply say thank you for the question and you confirmed some extra details kind of blend in the welcome into the consulting phase. But ultimately in a book called How to Win Friends and Influence People, the literal thank you at the start. Thank you for the question is going to give such a better impression? Example, Hey, thanks for the message. Have you got any ads running currently? Remember what I'm teaching you, this is not a script. You look at what they've said and ask a question that you genuinely need answered. So we'll get into well, what if I don't have any questions, but ultimately they sit in a scripts. This is just a conversation you're understanding the building blocks of a conversation with one person who needs help and the other person can provide the help, provide in that it makes sense for both of them. In the unlikely event the client provides everything. If the client has everything you need in the first message, 100% understand the product from the message and you have 0 questions. You can confirm the project back to them straightaway, straight to a close. However, this is very unlikely. If they did say Here's everything I need his everything I've got. Can you do it? Hey, thanks. A detailed message. I can see a vision here. I can create a, I've said tiktok video, but ultimately what you're doing is you're confirming that you've read the message. I've had so many times where I went to order something off of freelancer. And they just say, yes, I'll design anything you want. And it's like wait a minute, did you read the brief, did that if they also you want to match the effort that they put in which we'll get to in a minute, red flags. If they put a lot of effort into the message, you put some effort into confirming OK. You want this, this and this? Yes, I can do it. No problem since simply place the order to get started unless the scope is outside of the order. So say you've got to pay sick package but they weren't more. You can say, Okay, XYZ, this is what you want, how is, and then you say the price. But I'll give you some more examples. There we go. Or how is say, for example, hey Tyson message, you want these tiktok video ads, No worries. How is 500 bucks? I'll send you a custom offer. Just some examples of the red, red flags really good clone visited by a client. A good client message would be like, Hey, I love your work, I've fashion brand and needs some videos. Can you help? Hey, I have XYZ problem and you seem to be the guy for it. Can you help? Or it's not my favorite message, but they say, Have you made a video in X or Y niche? What they're really doing there is they're saying, I like your work, but I'm not sure that you can do it in this niche. The problem I have here is, if you say no, that probably didn't assume. You mean you you can what you could say to this, have you made a video in Acts niche, you could say, I haven't, but my process works for all videos in any niches. I've got systems for every niche. Then a backline would just say, hi, if you've got a high, I mostly put them in spam, which I'll say later. Or I need a video or starting out asking for a cheaper video. Hey, can you do a deal? I'll need lots of videos later on. Two ways to approach this. Ignore it. Or you just say, how about let's do one at full price. And if it works well for both of us, then we can discount future videos. You don't with by1 Godwin free and a sharp, you buy the first one, then you get the other one free or maybe not buy one, get one free. You wouldn't buy one, get one free on your surfaces here. But ultimately you buy more, you get a deal. So you could say here, are you going to buy all the videos now? You can give a deal for all the videos now, but you don't give a discount on the first video, on the promise of later videos, because there's no guarantee that they're even going to buy another video. Any kind of request to bargain upfront is spray brood a lot of the time, especially if they're not giving you a good offer. They're not saying, Hey, can I get ten? Will you do me a deal on ten videos? Awesome, you can do a deal on ten videos. Just knock 10% of the price of ten videos or graphics zones or whatever your niche. But if they say, Hey, can you do me a deal on the first video, I'll have loads of work if it's good, they basically asked him for a cheaper asking for it to be good without even any guarantee that they'll give you more videos. So that's a red flag. So I personally put high masters and spam. So if I get a high, put it in span, you can always say Hi, how can I help back? But you'll probably get something like if they say hi in the first one, the problem as you'll be met with something like, I need a video and it's like you're dig in blood out of a stone. Finding out what they really need is a red flag from the start. If they're making, you work to find out what they want, it's a red flag from the start. I personally stay away from these interactions. You could be passing up a good opportunity taken about one. So here's a really good example of somebody opened in meat or their first message, hey Ryan, you're the guy I need. I've been advertising mainly on Google ads on Keynes got a campaign asap, I need a video for this. My competitor has this. The message even went on. This was a good client. This is a real example of a good message. Here is my reply. He actually adds a bit on, Hey Craig, thanks for this. Do you have assets or images and videos to use the icon? Take a look at so I asked her question because it shows I've read his message and I'm making sure I can help. That gives them more confidence in me. It shows on not being lazy. I'm not copying and pasting. And if he answers my question, the more he answers, the more he's invested in me and the more likely as to buy. I'm also not making the mistake of saying yes, sir, I can do anything you want now in 24 hours to the highest standards. Thus, how most people think Saleem works on Fiverr, even without understanding the client. If I hire somebody and they say they can help and I know they don't have all the information to make the decision. I wouldn't hire them because I don't trust that they've even lessened. That being said, don't ask questions for the sake of it. Just make sure you're confident you can help and show you've listened and understand the projects. So here's the reply again. Hi Craig, thanks for this. Do you have an assets and the images of videos to use that I can take a look at. Then you go through a consultation, you'll go back and forth with questions he might reply if you need anything else, you basically ask questions until you are comfortable, you can complete the job. And then before you ask for the payment, you just reconfirm the the job, what needs to be done. So ask them questions. You can say yes and agree without giving away ideas. So you don't want to be saying, Yeah, I think I can do this and I can do this and I can use After Effects, and I can use Photoshop and will make you don't want to do that. That's not where you want to be doing. You want to be asking questions like a doctor before he prescribes the medicine. And then you say, Yeah, I've got just what you need. You want to talk about the result and not the how the business owner doesn't really care how you do it. They just want to understand that you can do it and just ask questions until you are comfortable, then you can move on to closing the sale. So here's an example of the close. Okay, Cool. 30 seconds should do it. We can work on the copy together. I'll help you find and hire a VOR asked for silver, usually a $100 or so, then I can use your assets and add it over the video if that sounds good. All the standard package. Otherwise, shoot me any cues. Really kind of casual, friendly but professional shows. I know what I'm on about. I'm reconfirming everything we've talked about. That's my clothes. Simply confirm you understand, reiterate the agreement and then ask them to place the order. Or if Santa Ana custom offer say the price, then send the custom offer and they'll either accept del object, not reply. Here's just another example. I actually missed an asset name kind of mirrored how much she was invested in me. So she's not sending big messages. I'm not sending messages. How long do you want it to be, Jess? Two to three minutes. How much do you challenge would be one K for two to three minute video. She didn't reply. Objections. An objection is good. Sorry. An objection is when they don't agree, but they asked something else or say something else, there's a reason they can't do it. So objections are good because at least they've replied. No reply leaves you with nothing to work with. An objection boils down primarily to one thing I think I even wrote two. They don't think you can do the job or achieve the result. So I meant two things here. Or they don't think you fully understand the project. So that's why they might say no. So here, how do you create the video? I'm interested in having one made this. I really don't like this kind of thing. How do you create the video? That's the wrong question to ask. That is, they don't trust that I really know what I'm doing. So maybe they want to see why I say CFI, say I use After Effects or something. Do you have any more examples you can show? So here's just a few ways you can overcome any objections. So provide more comfort or an example and they'll say, Okay, or you follow it the next day with ready to go. So have you gotten more examples? Sure, here's my portfolio. Drop your best work, and then move on. Don't sit around waiting for clients ever. How will you make the video? Hey, I build videos and Premier Pro or After Effects. Just leave it there. Don't oversell it. It's too expensive. And it's more expensive to spend money on a video that doesn't convert, but not there's a line, you don't want to be arrogant, but it's true and it makes people go. That's true. And it also shows that you're thinking about conversions, which is sales clicks, etc. These are just some ideas. But ultimately what you're trying to do is you provide comfort and let them decide again. Here's an example of conversation, hay rack and you can help me a video. Thanks for the message. Do you have any assets, JavaScript, can you share a few more details? Sure. So we've got this folder. We want sales on Facebook, etc. Okay, it looks good. I think I can help or write a script design and animate your video. I think this style is good. You could show a great example, house 500 bucks. How will you do the video is the objection is a process, but don't worry, I'll check in with you every step of the way. Here's my portfolio. If you want more examples, let me know when you're ready to go. I've overcome the objection, but I'm not hanging around there. I'm moving on from the objection saying let me know when you're ready to go. Like, they can't really keep asking questions when you keep asking for the sale. And then they say, Okay, sounds good. Let's do it. Great. I'll send a customer for now. That is confirmed. We can get started, boom, done. And in case you don't know in Fiverr in the message inbox, you can click create custom offer and you can click the gig, but then you can put in a price and you can make it longer or shorter or bundled deal or anything. So just to recap, your goal is to ask questions until you are comfortable that you can take on the project. Then you close the deal. By asking questions you don't give away your ideas or waste time and you lead the interaction. And it means you start on the right. It means you've confirmed you can do the job. They trust you, they can get on with their work and you're not on that back for weigh in. I'm just just the frame is set the right way. They trust you as a professional. They don't, because when they don't trust you, they're going to tell you what to do more than not gonna, you're gonna deliver a video. They're not going to trust that the videos right? So you want to lead the interaction properly and this is the way to start it. So don't talk tack know bible technical house. So yeah, what I'm gonna do is I'm gonna go in after effects. I'm going to add adjustment layers. And then I'm going to just don't talk about the technical thing, just keep focused on the result. If the objection is how you're gonna do it. Oh, I use Photoshop. I use a couple of tools, Photoshop, ETC. Really casual. And let them let them either ask the real question that they want or look at the objection and just answer it with one or two lines. An objection just means they want more comfort that you can do the job. That's pretty much it. But don't oversell yourself. Don't say I promise or a guarantee or you'll get the best customer service. Don't they don't care. Here's your action task. Close your first inbound sale. I would love to see comments Somewhere around this video of this course saying, I actually close my first sale. Thank you Ryan. That would be great. That would make me feel very happy. When a client masked you. Judge, you remember, welcome. Be nice to start. Hey, thanks for the message. Unless they just say hi, then just say hi. Consultation. Ask them questions, make sure yeah, I think I can help. I've got your diagnosis here and then go for the close. They'll either accept the offer and place the order. They'll ask another question where you say where you overcome the objection, and then you say, Let me know when you're ready to go or place the road when you're ready to go, overcome the objection, Go back to sale or they won't reply. And I don't chase people up who don't reply, my ego doesn't let me. But if you wanted to the next day, you can say, Hey, ready to go on this, I've got some free-space tomorrow. I can get this done. I hope you've enjoyed that little crash course in sales. If you want to learn more about sales, I recommend just getting on YouTube because there's tons on YouTube. And that's pretty much where I learned it or buy books, read books, watch on YouTube and just trust the overtime and through experience little bits here and there It's all going to build up. And eventually you'll, you'll leak into all areas of your life, your marketing, your Facebook posts, Fiverr gigs, blah, blah, blah, even your conversations and your confidence. I think sales is essential, just as I think copyright in is essential and copyright in is persuading with words on a page. Sales is persuading with words out of your mouth. So I hope you've enjoyed this. Go get it and let me know when you've got some sales. 19. Analysing Your Metrics: Hey guys, So I keep getting asked, basically, how do I get more clicks on my gigs or I've got no orders or what should I look at? So I've thought I've put together a quick tutorial on how to look at your metrics. Again, I'm only giving you data that I've learned over time. And I'm going to show you some examples of what happens when you change your gig and it gets better. So first of all, what we're going to learn in this quick presentation, the three metrics you should be looking at on Fiverr, what the metrics mean, and how you can improve them to get more sales. So the first one we're going to look at is impressions. So impressions or how many times your gig has appeared as people are scrolling. So if they're scrolling through and your gig comes up in the feed, then that's going to count as an impression. Your impressions are determined by SEO, such as the keywords in your title. Are you targeting the right people with enough search volume so that they can find you the gig category and subcategory. So earlier on in the course, we would have picked a good category, Video Marketing and things like that. And here's just a note. Positive engagement rewards, positive feedback from the algorithmic rhythm. This is the same on social media and same on everything. The better experience that the buyers or viewers have, the more your stuff is going to get shown. So convert more customers. So if you get more impressions and then you convert that into more customers, then you get a good review. This kind of thing is going to happen. And I'll show you all three timelines side-by-side. At the end of this presentation, if you aren't getting many impressions with your gigs, you want to revisit your headline. Check that you've got keywords that people are actually searching for. Check your gig category and subcategory. Now we move on to clicks. So obviously cliques or how many people, how many times people clicked on your gig after seeing it when they were scrolling. And your clips are determined by your headline. Is it compelling that people want to collect your thumbnail? This is a lot like YouTube, headline and thumbnail. Neil, are the two things that make people click there. The only things really in your control, but you also have a price as well. So if you're getting lots of impressions but no clicks, if your thumbnail doesn't stand out, your title or headline isn't effective or your price is too low or too high. So if you've had thousands of impressions but no clicks, then maybe it sure. Thumbnail, maybe it's just not a very nice thumbnail. And you could improve that. Maybe you got to go on Canva get a thumbnail design or you hire someone to fix your thumbnail. Also, Salah level comes into it a little bit. If you're a new salad, probably going to be a little bit harder, but it doesn't mean it won't happen to get a click. And then also when you work with clients, they show now your clients where it says Mike, clients and it'll show the logo of the clients, but you have to get them approved, but you can put your clients on your gig. So it's all social proof, ratings, reviews, your headline, your thumbnail. It all makes one big package and that's what we're working towards. But just because you haven't got anything yet, doesn't mean that you can't keep trying to improve. And finally, orders. So obviously orders or how many sales you got after people collect your gig. And your sales are determined by your portfolio, how good your work looks, your gig description, you really understanding the customer, are you differentiating yourself? Is there a reason they should pick you over somebody else? Your price, obviously, price is important. Like I said, the more you can differentiate yourself, the less the price matters. But a budget is still a budget. So to be reasonable, and of course, your sales skills are people mastering you but then not buying? Well, you might just be complicated. You might be asking too much. You might not be asking enough and just going straight for the sale. These are all things that you need to work on. So if you get in lots of clicks, but you have no orders, you want to revisit your gig and ask yourself, is my offer clear? Is it clear what I offer? Like I said earlier, good, better, great, things like that don't actually mean anything. You want to make it really clear what the deliverable is. My package is confusing. What I was just saying. Then. You may be people want something from package one but not from package to a U, given different things in different packages, the packages should be you're either adding more but not more than the minimum that's required. Like if you're gonna make a thumbnail and then one gig, you're like Add Image As, and then one gig, another gig you like add image and icon, things like that, just don't make sense. Everybody wants image, icon and text on the thumbnail, so make sure that your packages aren't confusing. And if you can't work out three decent packages that makes sense, then just use one package. And is my price too high or too low? Well, again, I don't want to get you pricing yourself too low. That's not the goal. The goal is to get paid what you're worth. But there is a price that point that could be too high. And I've just started a new gig actually. And I've priced myself a bit lower, not too low, but low enough that people can just take a shot and see what the work is like. So now I'm just going to give you some quick way to look at the maths basically. So to work out the click through rate, you take your clicks, which is 23 here, and you divide that by the impressions that, and then you times that by 100. So 23/1, 0.4 K or 1,400, then time times by 100 is 1.64%. Click-through rate. I don't think that's too bad. I aim for two to 3% click-through rate. To work out the conversion rate, your sales, you divide the orders by the clicks, so 2/23 and then you times that by 100. So that's 8.69. So I think actually 10% is pretty good. So two orders out 23 clicks is nearly 10%. And so really good conversion rate. So it's all about testing. So you don't want to keep changing your gig. You don't every day because when you do that The, you're given the algorithm new information and it's likely that it's going to knock it down a little bit on the SEO. So when you do make a change, leave the gig for a few weeks, make a note beforehand of the metrics and then look at what improves or gets worse, but don't keep changing it. If you're going to make a few changes, do them all at once and then test but make a note of what you changed. And at the end of the day is all about it's all down to test and what works and what doesn't. I didn't, I don't have a magic formula. I just try so hard to get things go in and when they go in, I leave them alone. And I might adjust the price a little bit. And then if it slows down, might have to reduce the price or whatever. But the main thing is you get your first sale, you overdeliver, you make it easy for the client. You deliver the value. And they will give you a five-star review. And let me show you what that does. So here's just a gig, to be honest. I haven't been on Fiverr properly for about a year. I've been working on other things, but let's have a look there. So I brought this gig back to life. So I think what I did here, so these are clicks, but I actually posted this gig on social media. So I got a few gigs here, and then I got a sale. And when I got the positive feedback, you can see I got it. The clicks, the impressions, and the orders go up here. So as you can see, Fiverr, since I've got two orders, fiber is given my gig way more impressions, like nearly 150 impressions a day. So if we look at this, the gig performance here, we've got clicks as well. So the clicks go up and as you get more clicks to orders, five are obviously thinks, Wow, people are odor enough. This guy, Let's show into more people. Then you get a five-star review. Let's show him to more people. So you really want to get these going in an upward trend. And when you do, you want to leave it and make smaller and smaller incremental tests? So your action task is to go and check out your metrics. Take a look at gig, see if there's anything obvious you can go and work on. And also, it really helps me out if you guys leave a review. So if you're getting value from this course, please go over to wherever you leave a review and leave a review and let me know what you think So we can help more people out. Thanks very much.
