Co-founder and CEO Micha Kaufman started Fiverr ten years ago
with the simple idea that people should be able to buy and sell
digital services in the same fashion as physical goods with an
e-commerce like experience. Fast forward almost a decade, Fiverr is
now a global platform that spans 160 countries with a community in
the millions. Since its founding in 2010, the Fiverr platform has
helped millions of people around the world with everything from
graphic design to digital marketing and on the other end, it has
helped hundreds of thousands of skilled people monetize their
skills. Moreover, when looking at Interbrand's list of the Top 100
Brands of 2019, 74 percent of them have placed an order on
Fiverr.
"Businesses of all sizes and sectors use Fiverr. They all love
our friction-free e-commerce experience of buying digital services
in just one click and in under 15 minutes - instead of the 30 days
it takes just to find and hire a freelancer elsewhere,” said Micha
Kaufman, Fiverr CEO. “With the addition of new vertical stores, we
are expanding our platform to a new group of customers from new
industries. For many of these customers, Fiverr is an extension of
their teams, allowing them to flexibly add capabilities to get
projects done quickly, cost-effectively and transparently.”
Following the successful launch of specialty stores for
industries such as gaming and e-commerce, the company is launching
its fifth store focused on the growing influencer community. The
global influencer marketing industry is estimated to be worth up to
$15 billion by 2022, up from roughly $8 billion in 2019. Every
platform from Instagram and Facebook to YouTube and LinkedIn
attracts influencers. In many cases, these people are solopreneurs,
managing their business on their own and they often need help
managing and maintaining their status on these platforms. That
ranges from blogging, SEO, video editing, social media management
and more. The influencer store will feature services that help them
to scale and grow their online channels. There are four sub-stores
that are hyper-focused on:
- Website and Blog
- YouTube
- Instagram
- Facebook
Fiverr has been heavily focused on expanding its catalog of
digital services in 2019. Today Fiverr facilitates millions of
transactions between buyers and sellers across 160 countries around
the world. The introduction of new categories and services brings
new buyers to the platform in addition to providing increased
opportunities for sellers. In the last six months, a number of new
categories have launched including:
- Building Information Modeling (BIM)
- Brand Style Guides
- Virtual Staging
- Game Development
- Podcast Marketing
- Graphics for Streamers
- Local Photography
- Animated GIFs
- Book & eBook Writing
