This is a very important activity because it will contain the information that will attract your customers who come to the site to get jobs done.

Your profile page

Here you upload an image of yourself, and give a brief description of all the services you intend to offer on the platform, and enter information about what qualifies you such as a certificate or other award.

Choose a category, choose a gig

A gig is a service that falls under any of the categories listed above. For your information you can check out gigs of other members to see what kinds of services they offer. You can operate one gig or up to seven gigs. They can be several gigs in one category or each gig can be in a different category.

You are now required to describe your gig, stating clearly what you are offering, what will be required of the buyer, and what will be delivered. Pricing is quoted in 3 ways, usually basic, standard and premium with more offered respectively. For each quotation, an expected time limit is stated, such as 4 days or 2 days. Depending on the complexity, the seller chooses the appropriate duration.

Upload an image or video which summarizes the gig

This is usually the feature that grabs the attention of the buyer, so a lot of care has to be put into this. Videos tend to be more attractive, and any images need to be beautifully designed and relate to what you are offering.

On the next page we will next look at the operation of selling to customers.
