The great thing about Fiverr is the following:
- if you want to learn a new skill, you can test it in an existing marketplace (if the market buy's your gigs, you are proving that your product or service is worth further pursuit)
- you experience first hand what it is like to deal with customers (you have to provide them support, come up with extra ways to please them due to competition etc. etc.)
- You gain relationships with your customers and they spread word about your work like wildfire (After every completed gig I did, my customer would send me 2-3 referrals the next day)
When I was learning to do graphic design, I posted a gig on fiverr and wanted to offer the best service possible (btw, this is a very crowded market) At the same time I would learn a valuable skill that I can leverage in business.
Here is an example of something that took me 2+ hours to create for $5.
You could argue that 2+ hours of work for $5 dollars is a waste of time. I would argue that I learned how to be designer(which I was doing anyway), got paid for it and got 3 referrals the next day(who also paid me).
