This week I'm working on 👇
- 42 content assets for a long term client
- Adding projects to our portfolio
- Connecting with freelancers and agencies for referral projects (and to become friends 🤭)
- Finishing up a launch content project
- Doing a trial video editing project
- Working on my second business with my team + hopefully getting my Business Number so I can do more bureaucracy 🫠
These are some important taks among the hundreds I usually end up doing during the week! I've found that working from Spain again has helped my productivity so much 💪

Okay, this one made me smile!
I just found out I’m in the top 1% of creatives on Contra.
Really grateful for every project, every client who’s trusted me, and all the work that got me here.
I started my freelance journey here in Contra just ~4 months ago, after a bit of a low point, so I’m especially grateful for how far I’ve come and everything that’s happened since. 🫶
Wow congrats!! Any tips for someone starting out?

how do you motivate yourself, as an entrepreneur, during the down seasons?
for me, i look back over my work and ensure I remember I have so much to be proud of!
it's been a slow season in my business recently but i am SO proud of many things, including that i'm almost at the next Contra earnings milestone!
what's crazy is, i got a lead from Contra for my biggest retainer check to date in February but they used their own payroll (outside of Contra) so I really have already hit the $50k+ from Contra
but by the end of the year, I will have made $50k ON Contra! 🔥 wow, what a dream come true 🥹
Looking back at past work is one of the best ways to ground yourself when client work slows down. Rebuilding your portfolio with those proud milestones usually sets up the next big wave of projects.
