Fiverr Chat SOP – Website Redesign Projects
Objective
Convert redesign inquiries into clear-scope paid orders without mockups, confusion, or underpricing.
Step 1: First Reply (Control the Frame)
Purpose: Establish authority.
-
Thank the client
-
Say you’ll review their website + competitors first
-
Do not discuss price or mockups
Rule:
No pricing. No mockups. No promises.
Step 2: Website & Competitor Review
Ask the client for:
-
Current website link
-
Competitors they like or want to compete with
Internally identify:
-
Minimal vs content-heavy
-
Events vs services
-
Booking vs inquiry focus
Step 3: Pages Discovery (Mandatory)
Ask:
-
“Please list the pages you want on the new website.”
Rules:
-
Client lists pages
-
Sales refines structure
-
Do not blindly agree
Step 4: Design Direction Lock
Ask:
-
“Which competitor do you like most in terms of design?”
Rules:
-
Lock one primary inspiration
-
Others are reference only
Step 5: Homepage Embedding Clarification
If client wants everything on homepage:
-
Visually embed content
-
Keep proper structure in background
Rule:
-
Embedded content ≠ removed pages
Step 6: Budget Alignment
Ask after scope only:
-
“Do you have a budget range in mind?”
Rules:
-
Stay factual
-
No emotional justification
-
Adjust scope, not quality
Step 7: Mockup Objection
If client asks for mockups:
-
Explain design is done directly in WordPress
-
No mockups before order
Rule:
-
Never provide free mockups
Step 8: Scope Confirmation
Before sending offer, confirm:
-
Design direction
-
Pages list
-
Focus (events / services)
Step 9: Custom Offer Sent
Offer must include:
-
Pages
-
Design direction
-
Delivery time
-
Fixed price
Close with:
-
“Once the order is placed, we’ll get started.”
