What can you get for a Fiver these days? Let’s see…

  • A latte and a muffin from Starbucks
  • single trip on the London Underground in Zone 1

Hmm…doesn’t go very far, does it?

Unless you pop over to Fiverr.com

It’s one of the resources I turn to when I need a little something done in my business, quickly.

The type of things that I haven’t got the time or tools to do myself, but are probably too small (or obscure) to find another professional to do for me.

Particularly graphics and design type tasks, such as:

  • removing the background from an image
  • creating a 3D book cover for an e-book
  • designing a promotional flyer
  • creating an intro for an online video

There are countless services you can buy. All for just $5.00!

Some I wouldn’t recommend: buying Twitter followers, for example.

Some are just plain crazy (anyone want a postcard sent from Slovenia??)

But among the weird stuff you might just find a solution to a niggle that’s preventing you from moving forward on a project.

There’s been a few things I’ve scrubbed off my to-do list thanks to Fiverr but don’t expect miracles. It’s only $5.00 after all!

Take Action!

  • Pop over to Fiverr and browse some of the categories. I recommend Graphics and Video for starters
  • By browsing the services you might be inspired to buy something you didn’t know you needed that will add a little personality and fun to your business profile
  • Filter your search by ‘popularity’ or ‘rating’ and look for the ‘Top Rated Sellers’ to guarantee the best service
  • Always check out the reviews before you commit
  • Swing by my   and let me know if you buy anything!

    The best thing I ever got from Fiverr was a custom signature design. For $5. Cool! :)
