Sellers can now be able to see offers from buyers using the brief as the seller put the budget for the project, then the right seller who can work with the budget will be able to see the offer from the buyer through email notification and also notified from the Fiverr platform.
This feature has already caused more controversy because most sellers have lost on how to make use of this new feature to stand out and make more sales using the new buyer request feature on Fiverr to secure a job within their price list.
Fiverr sellers can now set a brief on how much they can work with a buyer within a price set from their profile.
If you also notice that a Fiverr buyer request not showing on your profile, then it’s probably because you’re a new seller because you can see buyers’ offers directly if you check the buyer request, or else you are a level 1 seller upward.
The best way for you to receive offers is by setting up your brief, then Fiverr will mail you if there’s a buyer who has a project within your brief, and then you can get connected with the buyer to discuss the project further.
