Huge congratulations on hitting the $10k milestone! 🚀 Truly inspiring to see what’s possible on Contra.
I joined Contra just about a month ago as a full-stack developer. I’ve set up my services and published a few case studies, but I'm constantly learning how to optimize my presence here.
If you could look back at your early days, what’s the #1 thing you did that moved the needle for your profile visibility and landing initial inbound clients?
Any quick tips for newcomers would mean a lot!
Just hit my first $10,000 on Contra 🥳🎉
I joined Contra a while ago without really knowing what to expect, and it’s been really nice to see it gradually become a place where I’ve met great clients and worked on projects I genuinely love.
Here’s to the next one 🥂
congratulation to the owner we are getting there

:A bit over 6 months of actively using Contra. 💻🪩 ✨ This year also marks 10 years for me in the professional world, and I can say without a doubt that Contra is the #1 platform for creator growth right now.
Nowhere else is it this seamless to collaborate with high-tier.
@contralabs Creative Intelligence Report shows AI adoption, workflows, and earnings, and the page itself is a masterpiece
The storytelling is unmatched.
Huge congrats to the big talent behind, @Mark Vassilevskiy, @Alex Karpodinis, @Stacy · Heed Collective, @Heed Collective , @Erin Horner, @Ben Huffman and the entire @Contra Labs team 👏
Folding the entire post-purchase flow into Kajabi — confirmations, order forms, the whole sequence — is where the brand actually earns trust, not just the landing page. Worth checking whether the confirmation and post-purchase pages read consistently when a customer hits them on a small phone after a sweaty match.
I've been using Contra for a while now, mostly as a place to showcase our work.
But lately I've been wondering how people actually use the platform to get hired.
Is it the projects you publish? Your profile?
Being active in the community? Applying to jobs?
We've had clients find us through different places, but Contra still feels a little different to me. There's the portfolio side, the community side, the job side, and I'm not sure how much each one actually matters.
So I'm curious: if you've gotten projects through Contra, what actually worked for you?
I'd especially love to hear from people who've been using it for a while, not just what you're supposed to do, but what actually led to a project.
