Can we set longer TATs?

Hi,

Some services I would like to provide require longer TAT then 5 days since they require a lot of manual outreach, content generation, and design. For big projects it will require 30 days some times.

Are we already able to set longer TATs and I'm just unable to find it?

    Hi Jackie,

    Many thanks for your message.

    Hourlies are small pre-packaged jobs that can be delivered for a fixed price within a few days (a maximum of 5 days). In essence an Hourlie is an ‘Express job’.

    Hourlies aren’t just for "traditional" services that take much longer than 5 days to complete.

    If your services normally require far longer than 5 days then maybe think about what kind of taster package you can offer. A large percentage of Hourlie sales go on and lead to much larger custom Jobs with Buyers so it is a great way to acquire new Buyers. However, if you really can't market your services in an express job format then Hourlies are not the right selling channel for you, instead you can win work on PPH by building a stellar Profile so that Buyers contact you directly for work, and by submitting proposals on Jobs.

    Please let me know if I can help you with anything else.

    Hi Kelly,

    I too have this problem, but using hourlies as tasters for custom jobs doesn't really fix the problem because custom jobs means the seller doesn't get credited for that job or purchase in the sales figures. For example, I have sold a large amount of custom jobs, but they aren't then added to the hourlie's sales, so it looks like I've done much less than I have. Can this be resolved so that our custom jobs via proposal are also recognised in the sales figures? Kind regards, Ameesha
