Standardized Job Packages

Implementing standardized job packages is a crucial step in enhancing the catalog on Efrelance and fostering business growth for freelancers. By adhering to standardized packages within specific categories, freelancers can ensure consistency and clarity in their service offerings, leading to a better user experience for buyers. Here’s a comprehensive guide on standardizing your job packages:

What You Need to Do

1. Review Category Requirements:
   Thoroughly understand the standardized package requirements for your specific category. Identify the minimum pricing elements that must be included in each package within your job.
2. Edit Your Job:
   When creating or editing your job, follow the instructions provided in the job creation flow. Make necessary adjustments to fit into the category’s minimum requirements, ensuring that all mandatory pricing elements are included in each package.
3. Evaluate Alignment:
   Evaluate whether your job still aligns with the minimum requirements. If not, consider moving it to a more relevant category to increase visibility to potential buyers.
4. Custom Offers:
   While standardized packages have limitations, custom offers allow flexibility for buyers with different requirements. Create custom offers based on specific needs and agreed-upon prices.
5. Provide Comprehensive Information:
   Complete all necessary fields and provide comprehensive information about your services. Missing information may impact your exposure to potential buyers.
6. Respond Promptly:
   Keep an eye on notifications on the seller dashboard and respond promptly. Complete relevant updates within the provided timeline to maintain visibility on the platform.
