The 5-step hiring process
1
Write your goal
Write it in one sentence and list the changes you want, in priority order.
2
Search a specific phrase
For example, theme customization, rather than a broad term.
3
Compare listings
Check package contents, delivery time and revisions.
4
Check proof
Open portfolio links on your phone and read recent reviews for communication and delivery.
5
Brief and test
Message a short brief, check the reply is specific, and test the delivery before accepting. Accepting releases payment.
5
Open five listings from one search and score each before you message anyone. Compare before you order.
Protect your store
Do this before any work begins, and never share your owner login.
Duplicate your live theme so you can roll back.
Generate a collaborator request code under Settings, Users and permissions.
Share it only with your hired seller, in Fiverr order messages.
Grant only needed permissions; remove access when done.
Removing access when the work is done keeps your store safe.
Prepare your brief
Send these details. A clear brief saves revision rounds.
Store link and theme name.
Two or three reference stores.
Brand colors, fonts and logo files.
Exact changes in priority order, plus your deadline.
When to hire help
