Set up in a week, not a weekend of dread.

A new marketplace profile feels like a mountain when you look at it all at once. Broken into days, it’s a series of short, finishable tasks. Here’s the order that gets you booking-ready fastest. Mindhyv is commission-free — you keep 100% of what you earn — so every hour you invest here compounds directly.

Day 1: Claim and frame

Create your account and write your one-line promise: who you help and what result you deliver. Add your name, photo, and location. People book people, and a real face outperforms a logo on a new profile. If you’re stuck on the wording, the storefront setup guide has a fill-in-the-blank template.

Day 2: Build your storefront

Turn the frame into a full storefront: your offers, what’s included, and your process. Write the service listing so it reads as an answer to the buyer’s question, not a résumé.

Day 3: Price and package

Set your numbers before anyone asks. Work through how to price your services, then present three tiers instead of a single rate — see packaging your services. Because the marketplace is commission-free, the price a buyer sees is the amount you keep; you don’t need to pad for a platform cut.

Day 4: Start verification

Begin the seller verification process. It checks identity, track record, and payouts, and a verified badge makes a brand-new storefront easier for buyers to trust. It can take a little time to clear, so start it early in the week. The verified seller checklist walks through exactly what to prepare.

Day 5: Prove it

Add your portfolio and any early social proof. No clients yet? The portfolio with no clients guide shows how to build samples buyers trust. One real client sentence beats three paragraphs about your passion.

Day 6: Set the money rules

Configure your booking, deposit, and payment terms so you’re protected from client one. Connect your payouts so paid work actually reaches your bank.

Day 7: Go live and tell people

Publish, then drive your own first traffic — the marketplace is new and growing, so your early bookings come from you sending your storefront out. Use the warm-circle script in get your first five clients.
