What Is Fourerr.com

Have you heard of Fourerr? It’s a hot way to outsource work, on any budget!

Fourerr.com is a website that connects service providers and customers. The unique twist to this site is that every service is offered for $4 (thus the name Fourerr). Most people might think that you can’t get much for $4, but surprisingly there are many gems to be found. Often you’ll find services on Fourerr that you can’t get anywhere else, for any price.

Fourerr is easy to use. You can sign up for a free account in just a few seconds. Within a few minutes you can be hiring someone or even offering your own $4 gig.

Fourerr ties in nicely with Paypal, allowing you to either pay for gigs via Paypal or get paid that way.

Offering  Services On Fourerr.com

You can make some quick cash by offering your own “Gigs” – Fourerr’s term for job or service offers on the site. Describe your offer by filling out the “I’ll do […] for $4” form. You’ll then be redirected to a page where you can describe your offer in a little more detail, add some information for buyers along with some tags and how long it will take you to complete the gig.

Fourerr.com is a great way to make a little extra cash, but keep in mind that you’ll get only $4 for each gig. Fourerr takes a dollar cut. Your best bet is to stick to offering tasks that will only take you a few minutes to complete when offering Fourerr gigs. If you’re willing, you may want to consider offering a ‘loss leader’. That means that you offer something that’s highly underpriced in order to entice clients in the hopes that they will continue to hire you at a regular price after they’ve had a chance to sample the great work you do. Just be careful that you’re not spending so much time on underpriced services that you have no time to work at your regular rate.

Buying On Fourerr.com

The flip side of using Fourerr is that as a buyer of services you have hundreds of options at your disposal. The site itself can be used for fun (have someone create a cool caricature of you), for family (hire an Oprah singer to wish Aunt Sally a happy birthday) or for business (hire a ghostwriter to proofread your latest blog post). Many people use Fourerr for business, of course. Take some time to browse through the categories and you’re sure to find some hidden gems.

Some popular Fourerr gigs include creating short videos, writing blog posts and articles, and creating graphics such as ebook covers, banners, buttons and the like. All for only $4.

As with any outsourcing site, there are both good and bad providers on Fourerr, so be sure to check feedback before hiring anyone. But at just $4, it’s easy to try out new providers as well. You might just find a hidden talent.

Most Fourerr providers are very fast, often turning around work in just a few hours. If you need something immediately, though, it’s a good idea to either work with a Fourerr provider you’re familiar with, or find another way to get the job done. The last thing you want is to miss a critical deadline because you relied on an untested (and unreliable) Fourerr seller.

Job Requests on Fourerr.com

If you can’t find what you’re looking for or have a rather specialized task you need done, consider posting a job request. Requests are listed on the site and service providers then have the option to get in touch with you to work out a gig.

All in all, Fourerr is a fun and useful website for business and pleasure. Just make sure you head over there with a plan and a budget or you may up browsing for hours upon hours and buying all kinds of stuff you don’t need! Have fun and spend those four bucks wisely.
