billion dollars earned by our community is a great accomplishment
and a credit to the work the skilled freelancers on our platform
are doing every day supporting businesses globally. I look forward
to taking part in the continued evolution of the freelance economy
in the next ten years.”
To commemorate the company’s tenth anniversary, Fiverr looked at

part of the Fiverr community for the last five years and have had
the opportunity to work with many different businesses. Fiverr has
given me the opportunity to be a part of the digital workforce, and
at 30 years old, I have had the freedom to pilot my own career. At
the same time, I’m able to maintain an incredible work-life
balance, all while earning more than my peers working in the
corporate nine-to-fives.”
