Gonna be honest, my journey on Contra started pretty slow. For almost a year, I kept applying to projects and barely got any replies back.
Then things slowly started to change. More projects came in, more people started reaching out, and collaborations started happening naturally.
It took me about a year to reach my first $5k on Contra… and only 3 more months to hit $10k.
Big thanks to Contra for building such a solid platform and giving freelancers a great alternative out there.
Inspiring journey of resilience and persistence. keep going, by the way what is your discovery score?

Hey Tiago, how is it going? I'm just getting started on this platform and exploring how it works. You're one of the very first designers I followed here. When it comes to my feed, I filter for the best, and your work definitely fits that standard.
Hey Daniel, thank you so much, feel honored. Wish you the best, I'm pretty sure if you work towards increasing your profile score on a organic way you'll find success here, it might take some time but it's worth it.
Thank you, Tiago! I'll be working on this between tasks. Feel free to share any advice or feedback.
Best regards,
Daniel

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 🥂
Always dreamed of being a freelance designer & dev. Pretty amazing to be finally living those dreams! Thanks @Contra HQ @Ben Huffman
Woke up excited! 🎉 Contra just featured two of my projects, one in Standout Projects, one in Brand Design.
Wasn't expecting to open the app to that. Grateful, and it's a good reminder to keep showing up for your own work even when you don't know who's watching it.
Wooohooo congrats!!
