How To Get Freelance Writing Clients On Fiverr

The art of getting new clients in your sleep

Freelancing sites like Upwork allow you to submit applications in hopes of getting approved. These sites require a hands-on approach to finding clients.

Sites like Fiverr offer a different promise. You set up your gig once rather than apply to jobs, and people find you through Fiverr’s algorithm.

While bringing your traffic to Fiverr helps considerably, some gigs do well without any outside traffic. Any initial traffic you bring over to Fiverr will help your gig succeed on Fiverr’s algorithm.

Gig Research

Before you create a gig, look at your competition. Review gigs offering similar services like yours and compare price points, perks, copy, and work samples.

Low-priced gigs don’t necessarily yield the best content. High-quality writing usually comes from more expensive services. Since buyers heavily rely on reviews to justify the more costly sellers, some sellers price themselves low when getting started.

If you start with low prices, consider creating a Fiverr account under a pen name. If other clients discover you charge lower prices on Fiverr, they may ask you to lower your expenses for them. This concern is why I focus on audiobook narration services on Fiverr rather than freelance writing.

However, if you don’t have any clients yet, this won’t be a concern for the moment.

Creating The Gig

After conducting your research, the next step is creating your gig. Freelance writing gigs include three tiers that reward clients for selecting the more expensive packages.

For instance, if you charge $15 for 500 words, you would charge $25 for 1,000 words. Clients will see that they save $5 when opting for 1,000 words instead of two 500 word orders.

Explain your process and which tools you use for your writing. I use Grammarly for polishing my articles and make sure clients know that detail. Clients like to see that you use software to enhance your content’s quality.

The most crucial element of any gig is the writing samples. Your prospects will want to see your samples before purchasing your gig. Your samples reveal to the prospect what result they can expect when buying your gig.

Driving Traffic To Your Gig

Fiverr can considerably help in this department, but they only drive traffic to proven gigs. You must first do the legwork to optimize your gig and get initial customers.

Fiverr sellers primarily start with low price points to get a quick upper hand. Affordability leads to more sales which leads to more reviews and algorithm clout.

Reach out to colleagues and ask if they know someone looking for content. Talk about your latest gig on social media and document your progress. Anytime you get a new client, celebrate the achievement. Not only does this keep you in front of your audience, but you never know who’s in your audience.

Someone in your audience may need to fill a position for a freelance writer. Your posts keep you top of mind, so these people may reach out to you.

Growing an email list is the best way to drive long-term traffic to your gig. It’s essential to build out your own platform instead of exclusively relying on other platforms.

Getting Repeat Customers

The great thing about a Fiverr writing gig is that you can quickly get repeat customers. Many clients’ content needs don’t go away after you’ve written an article for them.

For any content business, you can’t just publish one article and generate lifelong engagement. Content brands continuously pump out content. If someone hires a writer, it means they have an unquenchable need.

The best remedy for these business owners is to continue hiring the same reliable writers for multiple articles each week. As you establish yourself, some business owners will see you as that dedicated writer.

They will return to your gig frequently, a blissful state for the freelance writer. Then, all of the engagement around the gig results in Fiverr sharing it with more people. Fiverr’s extra exposure will help you attract new clients.

The extra fanfare and quality reviews will give you leverage to raise your prices. Some freelance writers reach the point where they must say no to clients because they’re so busy. Raising your prices will deter some potential, but that’s okay if you’re incredibly busy.

Fiverr is a great marketplace to list your writing services and attract clients in the process. After you generate initial momentum, Fiverr can turn into a steady stream of clients. They’ll continue working hard to promote your gig even when you’re sleeping. That way, you can wake up to new clients.
