Fiverr’s Winter Product Release: Packed With New Features
Fiverr, the platform revolutionising the collaboration landscape, has unveiled its Winter Product Release, marking the first of its significant updates in 2024.
Far from a mere upgrade, this release represents a groundbreaking approach to incorporating feedback from the freelancers and businesses Fiverr has supported for the past 14 years. Highlighted features include the launch of a Consulting Category, featuring elite industry professionals, the introduction of Fiverr Agencies tailored for agency team requirements, and a refined rating and review system, among other enhancements. Through these developments, Fiverr reinforces its commitment to nurturing its community and solidifying its reputation as a dependable provider of digital services.
“This release is shaped by the invaluable feedback from our vibrant global community and the rich insights we've gathered since Fiverr's launch,” said Micha Kaufman, Founder and CEO of Fiverr. “Freelancers will now have more data and analytics combined with critical feedback from their clients to provide radical transparency and a clearer path to improve their skills and grow their business on Fiverr. We are also excited to offer new features to promote the incredible agencies that work on or have started from scratch on Fiverr, increasing their discoverability and highlighting the breadth of their accomplishments. Responding to the dynamic nature of the business environment often requires specialist support to stay competitive, which is why we have introduced a new Consulting Category offering swift access to seasoned professionals. As a trusted platform devoted to the needs of our diverse community, this release is an expression of our commitment to continue crafting experiences to help our community thrive and make breakthroughs in their work.”
Introducing Fiverr Agencies
Agencies represent a large percentage of the wider talent economy and have always been loyal partners on Fiverr. They are passionate advocates and help build trust and customer acquisition for the brands they work with. That is why they are such an important part of the Fiverr ecosystem. Fiverr Agencies, which will be available across Fiverr and Fiverr Pro, will make it easier for agency teams to build their client base and for client prospects to find them. Businesses can access a detailed profile of an agency’s capabilities, including a full view into their team and past work, to gain a deep understanding of how collaborating with an agency can bring their brand to life.
