Tim Schmidt: Tim Schmidt is the owner of Windblox. He started Windblox in 2001 and surpassed 10,000 unit sales in 2008. His windscreens are ranked #1 by Windscreen Review.
I own and operate a small business, Windblox, manufacturing windscreens for convertible cars. Part of the fun of owning a small business is that you get to do it all. At the same time, every small business owner is swamped with a to-do list that bleeds into 20-hour days. So, I turned to Fiverr® for services that I couldn’t handle.

For Windblox, Fiverr has helped by providing graphic design services for my social channels, business cards, logos, video editing services, copywriting for my website and newsletters, creating social posts for Facebook, along with solving WordPress issues and completing needed tasks such as data entry or image cataloging.
All of this has come together where it counts – sales.
Previously, my business obtained most of its sales from a strong Google rank. And I never bothered to diversify by developing social assets.
However, as Google’s algorithm changed, meaning my site was no longer in Google’s favor, it became more important than ever to focus on social and get things in order to continue getting traffic. Fiverr Gigs® helped me develop my other sales channels through:
- YouTube videos
- Email newsletter marketing
- Pinterest and Instagram development
- Banner advertising
- Developing content for social media channels
Previously, about 75% of my sales came from Google. Now, 40% of my sales come from Google, and another 40% through my other online channels.
I was skeptical when I first came to Fiverr.com. But what I ended up finding was a group of talented freelancers who are able to deliver terrific value with a quick turnaround.
For my tasks, Fiverr is the easy answer because it’s:
- Affordable. Saves me the salary of in-house employees, when I can hire the services I need through Fiverr.
- Tactical. I’m able to get very specific tasks performed.
- Diverse. Easy access to a wide variety of experts.
- Quick to engage and turnaround. It’s easy to hire someone, and results often come within a few days.
For those wondering about Fiverr, I’d simply say – try it. You can get some excellent work done for a very reasonable price, starting at $5.
