Delivery time can be a deal breaker for many clients. Research competitor timelines and match or exceed them when feasible.
Be careful not to over-commit — tardy deliveries pose greater risks to your reputation than extended deadlines. For newcomers, target 24-48 hour completion windows for smaller projects while building credibility. You can offer expedited delivery as a premium add-on.
Clients value reliability and speed. Successful sellers navigate this tension strategically rather than optimizing for velocity alone.
