What a great way to start the day 💸🎉
I've been on Contra for about 2,5 years and finally reached the $100K. Some clients haven't been willing to move to Contra yet, but here's my plan for 2026:
1. Sign up for Contra Max
2. Move retainer clients to payment links through Contra.
3. Digital products should be 50% of revenue in approx 3 years.
4. Automated setup for funnelling clients and make sure only great fit clients can book meetings.
5. Work about 10-15% less hours throughout the year.
Anyone else have great plans for implementing Contra Max?
congrats🎉
Thanks Anar! 🙏
Wow! Congrats!
Thank you Maxim ✌️
Awesommeee! congratss! 🔥💪
It really is! My goal is to reach $500K of yearly revenue within the next 5 years. 50% from clients, 50% from digital products.
And thank you btw Nabeel! Forgot to say that 🤣
That's a great goal, Digital products can make you money even when you are in sleep! 😅
$100K in 2.5 years is a solid milestone, moving retainer clients to Contra payment links is such a smart move.
Yeah not all my clients are on Contra so my yearly earnings are higher than that.
Love that it was done in under a week and still looks this clean, the minimal approach totally fits a find-anyone app.
Thanks JE! 🎉
Let's goooo!!
Yo this is massive. Huge congrats man, more wins🏆
Thanks David! Next bump on the Contra discovery score is at $250K which seems like a bit of a stretch to be honest 😅
I hear you man, but you're almost half way there 🤣.
Congratulations Morten
Thank you Victrex 🙏 Appreciate your comment.
Big congrats! 🎉
Thank you Anush 🎉
its been a while you haven't posting much?
I know Anush! My wife is very much pregnant and right now 5 days over her due date 😅 So have been busy with that and client work.
Great stuff! looking to get there myself.
Let's go Bradley! You can do it for sure! 👏

Congratulations on crossing $100K . This is huge milestone.
Wish you more success.
congratulations
Congrats @Morten Korshavn 🎉
Man, this is awesome! After this post, I’m definitely jumping into Framer!
Do it! If you know your way around Figma and auto layout it should be a pretty smooth transition for you.
The Framer team also have a lot of great tutorials to get started on their youtube page.
Yes, definitely! I’ve already tried it and it’s super easy to use, but I’ve always stuck with Webflow since I have a lot of experience with it.
Still, you’ve definitely motivated me to get that badge myself by the end of the year! Congrats again, and I hope you manage to double your income this year!
this is greatness! happy for you. congratss
Amazing progress Morten, congratz. Do you work solo or in a team?

GOOOO!
When I moved from Upwork to Contra, I wasn’t sure whether I was making the right decision.
Now? I’m never going back.
Contra has given me more than a place to find work. It has connected me with clients who value my professional perspective, trust my expertise, and invest accordingly. It’s also given me visibility, community and the space to grow from an independent designer into a collaborative studio that’s continuing to expand.
So, if you’re just starting out on Contra, take this as your sign to keep going. Show up, share your work and give it time. You never know what it could grow into.
The shift from a solo freelancer to a collaborative studio is where the real value of Contra shows up. It is much harder to build that kind of reputation and trust on platforms that treat you as a commodity rather than a distinct brand.
Here are two ready-to-use launch post options to share your new digital products with the Contra community:
Option 1: High-Value Bundle Showcase (Recommended)
Just launched two new interactive tools on my Contra profile designed to streamline independent client workflows:
🗂️ Client CRM & Pipeline Tracker
A Kanban-style CRM with drag-and-drop deal tracking, follow-up scheduling (+3/7 days), conversion analytics, and proposal follow-up email templates.
🛠️ Freelancer Business Kit
20+ all-in-one business tools inside a single workspace: multi-currency invoice generator, contract/NDA builders, hourly & retainer rate calculator, payment log, and client onboarding kits.
Both run 100% locally in your browser—no external subscriptions, completely private, and include one-click JSON device backups.
Check them out directly under the Products tab on my profile!
