BEST Fiverr Gigs to Get More Book Sales That Are Actually Worth It

About this video

In a Fiverr-sponsored video, the creator shares outsourcing gigs he says he uses, claiming he has spent close to $40,000 on Fiverr over about seven years of publishing while, by his account, making well over a million dollars. His theme is that publishers pay with time or money either way, should do tasks themselves while cash is scarce, and should outsource as revenue grows to focus on keyword research, marketing ideas and brand. For covers he names separate sellers for cheap low-content covers, fiction/non-fiction covers, and a seller who does both cover and interior for low- and medium-content books, stressing that covers strongly affect sales. He also lists interior creators for activity books, two low-cost formatting sellers — warning poor formatting draws negative reviews — budget and premium A+ content designers, and three book-promotion sellers covering a reader website, a higher-traffic promo site and TikTok promotion, noting promotion suits fiction/non-fiction better than low content. Other picks cover cheap conversion of an ebook cover to paperback, hardcover, IngramSpark or audiobook formats instead of paying the original designer $50–$100, 3D box-set images for ebook bundles, a simple logo for a pen-name author image, landing-page design for email capture, and, off Fiverr, two Amazon ads services for publishers with portfolios or several books.

Key takeaways

• Outsource tasks you are weak at once the business earns; in the beginning, do the work yourself to conserve cash.
• Professional covers are inexpensive on Fiverr, with different sellers suited to low-content versus fiction/non-fiction books.
• Formatting, interiors and A+ content can be outsourced cheaply, and poor formatting risks negative reviews.
• Use cover-conversion gigs for paperback, hardcover or audiobook versions rather than paying a designer’s higher conversion fee.
• Book-promotion gigs vary in real traffic and niche fit — test them, favour Amazon ads as the main channel, and only outsource ads once you have several books and understand the process.
