My First Gig
I was very curious about how Fiverr works and decided to put the knowledge that I learned from this ebook to the test. I opened an account on Fiverr and listed my first gig.
I made a short video to promote my gig and loaded it to the Fiverr website. I then waited for customers.
I was pleasantly surprised to receive three customers over the past two days. I have completed the jobs and have two "thumbs up" reviews on my profile. I found this experience to be fun and productive. I hope the contacts I make on Fiverr will lead to more business in the future.
Ms. Brentford has provided all the information you need to get started making money on Fiverr. Highly recommended.

Each story is very special in its own way. All the entrepreneurs have one thing in common...they followed their hearts and transformed ideas into income.
My Thoughts
This book has been on my "wish list" for serveral months. I was very happy yesterday when I noticed that the book was available as a Kindle download for $0.99. I started reading yesterday afternoon and did not put it down until I completed it...yes, I read well past my usual bedtime.
I learned something from each one of the interviews in this book. I realized that these were just normal people that started from scratch and persevered until they achieved success. Here are some things that seemed to be repeated in many of the interviews;
- Believe in yourself. You must believe that you have the ability to build a business.
- Marketing is everthing. Many of the interviews stressed how important marketing is to building a business. Having a great product is not enough, you have to get the word out to your potential customers.
- It will not always be a bed of roses. All of the people interviewed have had to deal with serious financial, family and relationship problems. Many lost/quit their jobs and were desparate for an income to survive. Some had to cope with illness and death in their families.
- Connect with a mentor. Don't be afraid to seek help. Many of these entrepreneurs enrolled in coaching programs that provided guidance and direction for them as they grew their businesses.
- Never give up. This is the univeral theme of this book. You have to be determined to make it work.
If you are interested in building an online business, you will find real value in this book. It will provide the boost that you need to transform your ideas into income!
