10 Reasons Why a Contractor Would Use Fiverr

Fiverr is a good site for getting things done on the cheap. The quality can be hit and miss overall it’s a very cost effective platform.

As a contractor here are 10 reasons why you might want to use Fiverr.

  1. CV presentation/ review- if you need a fancy CV you can get one knocked up really quickly. If you don’t want to share your work history, perhaps consider sending some generic information and fill in the words once you are happy with the overall template
  2. Research & summaries- The quality of the work on fiverr should never be passed off as your own, however you can spend money on specific instructions such as collating information to help you do a sift
  3. Hire a virtual PA. Depending on how busy you are, or how many clients you are juggling a virtual PA might be just what you need!
  4. Video and animation- if you want to add something different to a presentation you should be able to find a useful service on Fiverr
  5. Illustration- if you want to grow your personal brand- get custom designed business cards
  6. Transcription for busy professionals who need their notes writing up- again decide what can be shared, i.e. confidential information should not be outsourced if you can’t trust where it might end up
  7. Website- If you need help with designing your website, Fiverr might be a good place to get basic support
  8. If you require proof reading then this service is offered, but check the credentials first as there are a lot of non-native speakers
  9. Logo design- if you want a professional logo design this is a good place to start as prices start low but expect to pay more for higher quality
  10. Give PowerPoint decks a professional look by getting someone else to design the template (make sure you can make edits to the master file that’s sent unless you want to send the content too!)
