Assalam o alaikum, so today's topic is how to down your competitor
00:03.4
00:05.4
That sounds weird
00:05.5
00:12.9
I am not really going to teach you how to down your competitor
00:13.0
00:17.3
means it is a black hat technique,then it won't be good
00:17.4
00:22.4
but this will tell you how your competitors make you down
00:22.5
00:24.4
you should be aware of this
00:24.5
00:31.2
If you know them, then you'll save yourself from the mistakes that we did
00:31.3
00:36.6
If today you save yourself from them, then you'll succeed quickly then us
00:36.7
00:40.3
so the thing is, whenever a new member joins a freelancing platform
00:40.4
00:43.8
he has in his mind, that fiverr is a 5$ platform
00:43.9
00:47.1
and we have to start selling our gig for 5$
00:47.2
00:48.9
whatever service we are providing
00:49.0
00:53.3
whether we struggled 4,5 years in our service, but still we'll sell it for 5$
00:53.4
00:55.4
So people having this mentality joins,
00:55.5
00:57.4
and start their service from 5$
00:57.5
00:59.8
and now other sellers, what they do
00:59.9
01:05.7
you gave unlimited revisions on 5$ service, now they'll directly place an order
01:05.8
01:09.9
now this is one of the disadvantage of fiverr, that order is directly placed on your profile
01:10.0
01:15.4
on the basis of details that you've provided, anyone can place order directly
01:15.5
01:20.7
now what they do, when you submit the order, he'll as for revision, then again you submit, again he'll ask for revision
01:20.8
01:24.3
because you've provided unlimited revision
01:24.4
01:32.3
so what happens, in the end you've to cancel that order or he report it and cancels it
01:32.4
01:35.2
which effect your order completion rate
01:35.3
01:40.2
but I am not saying to do it on other's profile
01:40.3
01:46.0
because everyone struggles alot, take care of their privacy, don't do this with anyone
01:46.1
01:48.7
now i'll tell you how to keep yourself safe from this
01:48.8
01:51.6
number one, add a resonable price
01:51.7
01:56.6
20,25 or 30$, or more then 15$ or atleast 15$
01:56.7
02:01.5
see the average selling price, if it is 5$ then then it is compulsion
02:01.6
02:07.6
but if you can sell your service at high price, that I've told you in competitor analysis section
02:07.7
02:10.2
and in gig creation section as well
02:10.3
02:15.2
then by following that, give your gig a high price
02:15.3
02:20.2
if the price is high, then many freelancer don't take the risk
02:20.3
02:23.8
but if you give, unlimited revisions on 5$ service then this will happen
02:23.9
02:29.3
Secondly, don't give too many revisions,just give 2 to 3 revisions, no one can bother you too much
02:29.4
02:33.8
if one order has to be cancelled then why you should struggle for so many days
02:33.9
02:39.4
if it is a fake order and it has to be cancelled then why you should struggle for so many days
02:39.5
02:42.7
third thing, whenever you're are dealing with any client
02:42.8
02:48.4
must visit his profile once, to see what actually his previous record is
02:48.5
02:52.5
whether he is a new buyer, or old buyer, how old is his account?
02:52.6
03:00.0
if the account is of the same month or previous month or totally fresh, then you've to be carefull
03:00.1
03:04.6
suppose, if it's Oct month, and he created the account in Oct too
03:04.7
03:09.0
fiverr will not show you the exact month, but shows the month and the year
03:09.1
03:16.9
then analyze,he don't has any reviews, and it is a fresh account too, then he's here to ruin your time
03:17.0
03:23.1
exceptions are always there, this posibility is 95%, only 5% the client is real
03:23.2
03:27.4
now you've to experience it by yourselve whether he's real or fake by talking to him
03:27.5
03:31.7
but I gave you a clue, they make a new account and consult you
03:31.8
03:39.0
secondly, if he's an old client too, read his reviews, what other freelancers said about him
03:39.1
03:41.4
or what reviews he's giving
03:41.5
03:46.5
If other freelancers, gave bad reviews about him
03:46.6
03:49.7
that he cancels the order or anything else
03:49.8
03:53.4
then keep yourself safe from him, tell him that I cannot work for you
03:53.5
03:59.7
clients like these will waste your time, and most probabally cancel the order
03:59.8
04:07.0
so do visit your client, if you think he's the same, then stay apart
04:07.1
04:12.1
and do follow other techniques, about pricing, and revisions
04:12.2
04:18.1
and please, don't impliment these things on other's profiles or gigs
04:18.2
04:23.0
do hardwork, I am just telling you to keep yourself safe
