Hello, Contra!
Allow me to re-introduce myself as the new year starts. My name is Samantha, and I am your back-end tech and system implementations specialist.
June 2025: I got laid off from my work at Webflow. After 4.5 years, I have since taken time to recharge, reset, and upskill. This time also allowed me to gain clarity on how I wish to move forward.
I'm very excited to restart my freelance career, one I started back in 2009 before remote work was a "thing".
Let me help you with ongoing support for Kajabi, Kit, Webflow & WordPress.
I help online businesses run smoothly by handling your backend tech and systems, so you don’t have to deal with setup issues, broken automations, or platform maintenance.
This is not content creation or marketing strategy.
This is reliable, behind-the-scenes technical support.
Best of luck for your new journey!
Thank you, Arshia! :)
Thanks, Ben! :)
Thanks, Karina!

Always dreamed of being a freelance designer & dev. Pretty amazing to be finally living those dreams! Thanks @Contra HQ @Ben Huffman
Does presenting more design options actually give clients more freedom?
I’m starting to think the opposite can happen.
If I present 5 directions, the client now has to decide which one they like. If I present 1–2 strong, well thought-out directions, I’m also showing them what I think the brand needs.
For me, the number of options is part of the design process itself.
How many directions do you usually present to a client?
One or two, never five. Five options is not freedom, it is homework you handed the client. One or two strong directions says I made the hard calls for you, which is what they are actually paying for. Choice is a burden dressed up as a courtesy.
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 🥂
