Assalam o Alaikum, so today our topic is, right use of buyer request
00:04.8
00:09.6
what is a buyer request? for all those who don't know what is a buyer request on fiverr
00:09.7
00:14.5
it is a section, where buyer post their requests
00:14.6
00:19.0
suppose a buyer don't have enough time to chat first
00:19.1
00:21.8
search different gigs, and then do a chat and then hire
00:21.9
00:26.7
instead fiverr give him an option of buyer request, now what he'll do
00:26.8
00:31.1
he'll add all his details and tasks, that this is my requirment
00:31.2
00:35.0
I want a person according to my requirments
00:35.1
00:39.9
and fiverr ask him to mention the category
00:40.0
00:44.3
then he selects a category, and then all the freelancers in that category
00:44.4
00:46.7
and then that request is visible to all of them
00:46.8
00:51.6
now if you're a new seller, means your didn't acheived level 1 or level 2
00:51.7
00:56.0
and you don't have any badge, then you'll get the least buyer requests,
00:56.1
01:00.9
its not like, they'll not be visible, they'll be visible but very minimum
01:01.0
01:05.3
For this you need to be active on fiverr and you need to keep on checking
01:05.4
01:10.2
analyze it yourself, but if you talk about Pakistani time then
01:10.3
01:18.2
after evening 7,8o'clock buyer requests keep on posting till night 1,2 or 3o'clock
01:18.3
01:24.2
so this is the time according to me,but analyze it yourself too when you see buyer requests
01:24.3
01:26.7
and then you can apply to these jobs
01:26.8
01:32.0
Secondly,a problem faced by a newbie is that buyer requests are not visible to him initially
01:32.1
01:38.4
and when it is visible, he says, I don't know to do this, I can not do this work
01:38.5
01:43.4
he starts asking different people, how to do this project?
01:43.5
01:48.3
Its not necessory, that you can do every job posted there
01:48.4
01:53.2
suppose a buyer needs a web developer, he needs a coder, but
01:53.3
01:58.1
you make websites on wordpress, and solve its issue, but you don't know how to code
01:58.2
02:03.0
but the person who is uploading a buyer request, has already selected web development's category
02:03.1
02:05.3
he has selected web development category
02:05.4
02:10.8
now fiverr will show that requests to all of the gigs in that category
02:10.9
02:16.1
and its possible that you saw the same request, because your category is also web development
02:16.2
02:20.7
but its not relavent to you, so don't panic
02:20.8
02:26.9
only bid on a relavent post, in which you're 100% sure
02:27.0
02:31.0
bid means writting your proposal, and sending your request
02:31.1
02:37.9
don't send a proposal to every request, in order to just get a response
02:38.0
02:42.8
even if you get a response, then what will be the benefit, you wasted his time and own time too
02:42.9
02:48.2
So thats why, first read the buyer request, if you're 100% sure that you can do it
02:48.3
02:51.1
then send a proposal
02:51.2
02:55.3
Now the thing is how to bid, and how to write a proposal
02:55.4
03:00.2
First of all, read the buyer request 3 to 4 time thoroughly
03:00.3
03:05.1
then try to understand what is the issue of the client, suppose he want his website's audit
03:05.2
03:10.0
he's facing some issues in Seo, or speed of the website, or suppose he mentioned
03:10.1
03:16.1
I've speed issue, I want to optimize it and it has some Seo problems too
03:16.2
03:20.5
want to solve indexing issues or any other issues, now you're an Seo expert
03:20.6
03:25.0
You are a master of your skill, but you don't know how to write a request
03:25.1
03:29.9
and what you're writting, I have that much experience, I know everything, this and that
03:32.0
03:34.8
now you're thinking that I've mentioned my experience
03:34.9
03:40.5
my certification and everything, now buyer will definitly hire me
03:40.6
03:46.2
he'll not even give you a reply, because you didn't even tried to identify his problem
03:46.3
03:48.2
and you didn't even addressed his problem
03:48.3
03:53.1
suppose you are sick, you consult a doctor, and tell him that I am not feeling well
03:54.0
03:58.0
now if doctor don't address your problem and don't even have a look at you
03:58.1
04:05.0
and he says, I have 10 years of experience, I've treated many patients,I've even treated the bones too
04:05.1
04:09.7
and you'll say, I am not here for the treatment of my bones, I am here because I am sick
04:09.8
04:14.6
and he keeps on saying, listen to me only I've treated so many patients
04:14.7
04:20.8
and he's still talking about himself,you're already in problem, moreover he's not even addressing you
04:20.9
04:25.7
same this mistake is done by many freelancers, who thinks they are expert in their field
04:25.8
04:30.3
they ignore these things, and make mistakes, its alright, everyone makes mistakes that's why you're watching this course
04:30.4
04:35.5
so that you can correct your mistakes. Now what you have to do, as buyer mentioned that he's facing speed issues
04:35.6
04:40.4
he might have gave you URL or a link. Go to that link, identify the problem
04:40.5
04:45.3
examine what are the problems, and what problems you can fix. Make a list of all those
04:45.4
04:47.2
and then write all these things in the proposal.
04:47.3
04:53.2
mention his name, his company's or website name if he mentioned it in the request
04:53.3
04:57.3
mention his company's name so that he know, that you've visited his website
04:57.4
05:03.0
and then tell him that I've visited your profile, and I saw that it has speed issues
05:03.1
05:08.2
these issues can be fixed, your images size is bigger, your text is not optimized
05:08.3
05:13.1
your fonts are not correct, your layouts are not correct, whatever the issues are, address them
05:13.2
05:18.0
Now you have addressed the issues, now give him the solution too, buyer knows his website has speed issues
05:18.1
05:25.2
you told him, now tell him how you can fix them
05:25.3
05:29.5
then tell him these are the issues and I can fix them
05:29.6
05:34.4
and then address yourself at the end, tell him you have experirence
05:34.5
05:38.4
I've certifications, and I can perform this task for you
05:38.5
05:42.4
if you write a perposal like this, then tell me, how much chance do you have after this
05:42.5
05:48.0
you've addressed buyer's problem, visited his website
05:48.1
05:52.9
and then understood his problem and provided him the solution too
05:53.0
05:56.2
and then told him about yourself that i am eligible
05:56.3
05:58.8
I've these experties, and I can deliver you the best work,
05:58.9
06:04.0
you addressed yourself in the last, means 70% of your perposal was about the buyer
06:04.1
06:11.4
his issues and solution, and in 30% or 20% you'll tell him that you have these experties
06:11.5
06:16.3
you can diliver this work like this, and then analyze it yourself
06:16.4
06:21.2
that when you send this perposal, you'll get a response, and when you get a badge
06:21.3
06:26.1
of level one or level two, then many buyer requests will be visible to you
06:26.2
06:30.4
and per day you'll send 10 requests, and if you send requests like this
06:30.5
06:35.3
InshaAllah you'll get a response, and you'll get orders from buyer requests too
06:35.4
06:40.2
but initially, if you are new, very few buyer requests will be visible
06:40.3
06:43.6
those will be very few, thay can be relavent or irrelavent
06:43.7
06:45.7
so in this case you need to show patience,
06:45.8
06:50.6
there are other methods too, if rank your gig, you'll get orders from there too
