“You can’t make much money selling five dollars for only $5 each!”
….are the cries of the population.
“You can if you sell enough. Look at McDonald’s selling $4 hamburgers!…”
….is the answer of those who are a little more turned on.
Let’s look at the situation from another perspective. Let’s present our opportunity shows and see through the eyes of a profitable entrepreneur who doesn’t like being a busy fool. Let’s go to the other side of the desk.
If you want to benefit from Fiverr, you don’t have to pitch in with everyone to host your own gigs.
Take a brief look at Fiverr. Take a look at each category and make a quick mental note of the variance of the gigs and how much effort people are willing to put into these gigs for a pittance of $5.
You don’t have to join the crowd to collect this $5 ($4 after Fiverr tax) in the hope that it will add up to something hugely fruitful.
Everyone on Fiverr is your workforce.
The proper money to be made from Fiverr comes from a process known as arbitrage. This is simply buying and selling for more.
If a user offers to do a personal portrait for $5, don’t think “I could do the same because I’m artistically talented”, but rather “I could create a website to sell this service for $500 and pass the job on to this person”. and $495 net!”
Think big! Think wiser!
In addition to others working for you, you can also work to offer something on Fiverr.
Ask yourself what skills you currently possess (this saves you from having to learn a new skill) and then ask yourself how you can offer and modify your skills to directly appeal to a certain audience. Focus on supplying only this product or service to this demographic.
A person who is skilled at building websites might set up as a mobile marketer and decide to market their services to internet marketers or local restaurants. Please note that demographics are not everyone. This is a focused demographic that allows a person to narrow her field of vision in order to strive toward a goal.
* Decide what you can do.
* Decide what you are going to do.
* Limit your offers to a single product/service.
* Narrow your focus to one demographic.
* Have to.
* Expand or adjust depending on the answer.
A person’s biggest mistake is trying to put themselves in the next person’s shoes instead of respecting themselves for the skills they probably already have. If he insists that he doesn’t have any valuable skills, seek to learn something new that interests him and has proven successful for others in the past who have followed a similar path.
If you discover yourself and your own abilities and stay on a focused path, you are left with very few reasons why you cannot succeed. Don’t get distracted by others and their offers or supposed golden opportunities. Staying focused while looking straight ahead is the fastest way to get to your destination!
