Contra Insiders Newsletter just featured @Daniel G Bright and I today.
This feels like Forbes for Independents, for real.
A newsletter that reaches 1.3 million independents and agencies in over 100 countries.
The support from this platform is truly impressive š«¶
From our experience using the platform, we launched UnContrad Podcast 7 months ago, to help you land better clients, ship better work, and build a brand you canāt ignore.
Watch on YouTube and join the newsletter for recaps and resources šæ
Congrats! For me you two are legends @Daniel G Bright. Hitting 100k+ on SINGLE platform is huge!
What they team did was simpler, and harder to copy:
They listened.
Every piece of feedback from this community quietly shaped the product behind the scenes. We spoke, Contra built, and today, that showed up in the news.
This is the lesson most brands miss:
"The biggest growth lever in 2026 is not your ad budget. It is not your influencer roster. It is a community that feels heard."
When we see our words turn into features, decisions, real product changes, we stop being users, and become advocates.
Thank you, Contra :)
P.S. If your community isn't talking about you, ask yourself: are you actually listening to them?
Contra showing up in X News without a paid campaign or influencer is the kind of organic validation that money genuinely cannot buy. The fact that the community's feedback quietly shaped the product is a great story. That is the right way to build.
Firstly... I just launched my new product on Contra!!!
Secondly... while creating the listing.. I get news that I am one of the winners of the AirPod Max' š
UMMMM BEST DAY EVER!!
Thank you @Contra !!!
Check out my new product here!
Launching a product AND winning AirPods Max on the same day is one of the best freelancer wins I have ever seen. The guide looks incredible too. Turning one product shot into a full consistent campaign is genuinely useful skill.
