Had several people ask for tips to grow on Contra. Here are a few...

- Invoice a few existing clients through Contra for social proof like testimonials and $ earned.

- Focus on a core service to start. In reality I do web design and product design, but on Contra I only showcase website services.

- Rates will be lower than traditional word of mouth because there's no trust yet and people shop around. So, my hourly is lower on Contra, but will increase over time.

- Get a pro account for at least a month so you understand what exactly affects discoverability scores.

I'm still relatively low on the 'success scale' on here, and want to hear your tips too!

What has helped you grow on Contra the most??
