I don't know yet how fast this turns into clients. I'll keep showing up every day and report again in 10 days.
$400K+ earned on Upwork. Now I'm starting from zero on Contra.
For years I worked almost only on Upwork. But lately, in my experience, it keeps adding new features that make life harder for freelancers instead of easier.
So I decided to try something new.
Honest status: no clients on Contra yet. I'm staying disciplined: showing up here every day and delivering for my current clients.
Attached is my Upwork profile, so you know where I'm coming from.
Today I’m celebrating a milestone that means a lot to me — reaching $50K in earnings on Contra!
Behind this number are dozens of projects, creative challenges, great collaborations, and, most importantly, people who trusted me with their ideas and businesses.
Over the years, I've had the opportunity to work across brand identity, web design and development, e-commerce, UI/UX, and creative production.
Every project has taught me something new, pushed me creatively, and helped me grow.
A big thank you to all the clients who trusted me, the people I've collaborated with, and the Contra community for being part of this journey.
This is not the finish line. Just another milestone along the way.
Here's to the next $50K and even bigger creative challenges! 🚀
