Writing Compelling Service Descriptions
A well-crafted Service description is essential to help potential clients understand what you offer and what they can expect from working with you. Here’s how to structure your Service description to attract the right clients and showcase your expertise.
Components of a Great Service Description
- Describe Your Service: Explain what you are offering, what makes it unique, and why clients should choose this package.
- Sell Your Expertise: Highlight your experience, specialized skills, or unique approach to the Service.
- List Deliverables: Clearly outline what’s included in the Service, so clients know exactly what they’ll receive.
- Mention the Tools You Use: Specify the software or tools you’ll use to complete the project, or the format of the final file delivery.
- Detail Your Process and Communication Style: Describe how you’ll work with the client, how often you’ll communicate, and what they can expect during the process.

Service Guidelines
Follow these guidelines to create clear, effective Services on Dribbble that attract the right clients and set proper expectations.
-
Create one Service per category and budget.
Avoid creating multiple Services for similar offerings, especially when the budget is the same. This can confuse clients who are trying to choose which package to select. Instead, create a single Service and list any individual options within the Service description. -
Offering products or courses as Services.
You can include products or courses for sale within your Service. However, if you're selling website templates or existing logos, create one Service for each price point and list the options within that Service. -
Don’t create duplicate Services.
Do not create dozens of similar Services or Services that sell specific products (e.g., templates or logos). Creating too many similar Services will be considered spamming and may lead to removal. -
Price your Services accurately.
Select a Project Cost that accurately reflects the scope of work in your Service description. Avoid setting prices too low just to attract clients and then surprising them with hidden fees or upcharges. If you price your Service accurately, the cost should remain consistent for most clients that hire you for that Service. -
Choose pricing that matches your value.
When setting your prices, ensure they align with your experience and past projects. Avoid underpricing to compete with other designers on Dribbble or attempting to offer the lowest rates to win more clients. Competing on price often leads to undervaluing your work. The goal is to find a price point that reflects the quality of your work and attracts clients who value your expertise. -
Select relevant tags and categories.
Choose tags and categories that accurately describe your Service to help the right clients find it. Avoid using irrelevant categories or tags that do not apply to your Service.
