Hi Friends!
In this Guide, I want to share with you exactly (step-by-step) How to promote Fiverr gigs and increase your sales.
Also, I will share with you the top marketing strategies that made me publish my own Services website like Fiverr and sell on it directly without any third-party websites like Fiverr, Upwork, or freelancer.
What you will read now, allows you to build a real successful online business with freelancing and not only get some fast clients or orders on Fiverr. So Let's Start!
How to Promote Fiverr gigs and Services?
Mainly we have 5 strategies to follow to get new clients and orders on Fiverr:
- Cold Mailing
- Quora
- Social Media
- Content Marketing
- Paid Ads
So Let's start now with the fist strategy.
1. Cold Mailing
One of the best ways to market your services is to send cold emails to specific people who may be interested in your service.
What is Cold Mailing?
Simply it is to Search for targeted email lists (ex: CEO of certain companies), and send an email trying to turn the target prospect into a customer.
Let’s take an example to make things simple.
Let’s say, your service is about “Digital Marketing” and let’s be more specific, it's proving SEO services. so your expected clients, are all website owners who want to rank their websites on Search Engines and get more traffic.
“Note: SEO: search engine optimization”
So, now you know the target audience. What you will do is to send emails to those people and check if they are interested in your service or gig.
???? The Main Two Questions here?
- How to get those emails?
- How to send bulk Cold Emails?
Let’s start with the second question and see how we can send bulk cold emails?
Note: bulk means sending like 500–1000 or more emails per day.
We can achieve this with several methods:
- Gmail/Gsuite + Gmass Mail merge extention.
- Use a cold mail service like Woodpecker.
- Build your own cold emailing system.
To make things simple for you as a beginner, you can start with the easiest method which is connecting your Gmail account to Gmass, then your Gmail account will be able to send bulk emails, schedule, track, and more…
It will be like a small email marketing system with the help of Gmass.
so when you compose an email, you will see something like this:
this is the simplest way.
Now, I want to mention an important point
It’s highly recommended to use a business professional email and not your free Gmail account, so when you send emails, you will look professional and give more trust.
In my case, I have a dedicated email for services, which is:
To get a business email, you can register one with Gsuite from google for 5$ per month. I really recommend doing this, you will look professional.
Let’s now move the second question, How to get emails?
Also here we have 3 options:
- Online Scraping
- Manual search
- Using third party services like snov and hunter.
The second method is to search manually the web for websites and check the contact page as an example, and build up an email list.
Great! so this is the First Marketing strategy.
By the way stick to the end, where I will share with you a video tutorial on how to do this in action.
2. Fiverr Gigs Promotion with Quora
The second strategy to promote your fiverr gigs is Quora.
It is one of the best places to promote your business and grow online.
Quora is my daily routine where I sit like 20–30 minutes every day answering questions and look at the results:
Yes, 12K views the last 7 days! it's really a great place if you want to get fast traffic to your services and get more sales.
DONT’ spam, and give real value!
A good tip here is to create answer templates! since on Quora, there are a lot of common questions, you can then copy and paste, and publish your answers.
MAKE QUORA YOUR DAILY ROUTINE!
3. Social Media
When I say “social media” I don't mean go and join 100 Facebook groups and drop your Fiverr links in!!! this is SPAM.
No, use social media to build and grow your presence online, and let people trust you, then you will see how you will be contacted every day from people asking for your services.
In my case, I do have my own Facebook group, but I never paste links to my services, I just post valuable content, and every day, my messenger and my inbox is full of service requests. that I honestly reject 70% because I don't have time to follow.
4. Content Marketing
You can create anything like Blog Posts, YouTube Videos, online Courses, social media posts, e-books, podcasts, webinars and promote your services inside it!
One of my main keys of success Online is YouTube.
I highly recommend you start a YouTube channel and a blog, then you can promote your services on. It’s that simple.
5. Paid Ads.
Even though I don't recommend using paid ads as a beginner to promote services and gigs. a little advice is not to use Facebook or Google Ads to test.
instead, try Quora Ads.
Why?
Simply because in this way you will target the exact person that is looking for a solution to his problem. so it's about topic targeting.
Here are the main 5 strategies to start promoting your Fiverr gigs online or any service.
To sumup, Create a YouTube channel and a Blog, and publish real value.
Get traffic and grow your channel using the methods I showed you, and don't forget to take advantage of Quora, It's really very important!, to get more traffic and grow Online.
All this, inline with cold mailing and getting more clients.
Hope this helps!
Run your Own Services Site.
If you follow the strategies mentioned int this article, believe me you will start getting client from the first week. then you will have your own followers and audience.
In this case, you may move to your own platform instead of using Fiver or Any other Freelancing site.
This is what I do. and here is my service site.
If you are wondering how I started this site, I simply bought a script from codecanyon and hosted it. you will find several scripts that helps you setup a full website to sell your services on, here are some:
- ChargePanda – Sell Downloads, Files, and Services
- RoboSet – Sell your services online
- Gigs – Services Marketplace – Fiverr & Freelancer Clone
I use Chargepanda, it's not that perfect, but its good and you can start with. It's Simple
