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?
Awesome
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.
Congratulations
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! 👏
Big W! Congrats 👏

Congratulations
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?

I get a lot of comments like this one, and I wanted to share a few things I've learned about getting clients on Contra:
✨ Use less AI when applying or posting on the community, please!! People can tell. Make your message sound like you.
📖 Build case studies and show your process.
🎯 Apply only to projects that genuinely match your skills and portfolio. Fewer, better applications beat sending dozens.
And one more thing... I don't land every job I apply for and when I have a very slow month, I use that time to improve my portfolio and keep showing my work. Eventually, the right clients find me.
What advice would you add?
great🎉🎉
what tip can you give to someone new on this platform
New to Contra, but not new to design. 👋
I'm excited to start this journey, connect with amazing people, and collaborate on meaningful projects. If you're looking for a creative partner, I'd love the opportunity to work with you.
Welcome onboard!
🎉 Small milestones matter.
A few days ago, I started taking my Contra profile seriously.
Since then, I've:
Built out my portfolio with real projects
Published case studies and technical content
Refined my services to focus on AI, automation, and full-stack development
Connected with other professionals in the community
Today, my profile reached 33 points.
It's a small milestone, but it's a reminder that consistency beats perfection. Every project, every post, and every improvement adds up.
My focus isn't just growing a profile—it's building a portfolio that reflects the kind of work I enjoy creating: AI-powered applications, workflow automation, scalable web platforms, and custom software solutions.
Looking forward to sharing more projects and connecting with more builders and businesses on Contra.
