Hello Contra Community!
I’m reaching out with a genuine question to all the established professionals here. I’ve just landed on the platform and finished uploading my first case studies, focusing on strategic design and system thinking. While I’m new to securing clients specifically on Contra, I bring solid experience from the freelance world.
I would love to hear from anyone who remembers those early days: What was the decisive move that secured your first client here? Was it a subtle optimization of your portfolio, finding the right pitching angle, or maybe an unexpected networking connection?
Your collective wisdom would mean the world to a new colleague looking to find his footing here. Any guidance or shared experience is appreciated!
I'm in the same boat and commenting here for the aadvice!
