Here's an early tip from the State of Contra 2025. It looks as though there are two distinct camps of user here on Contra, and it pays to be in one of them 👀

So what are we looking at here?

Each blue dot on this image is a Contra user, and the lines between them indicate a review.

The most common are freelancers using the platform to manage their clients. They have their own circle of contacts, and are likely inviting clients onto platform for admin.

These are the islands along the outside.

In the middle, though.. See the groups of interconnected dots in the center? These are the users actively using Contra to get work done. They're making multiple hires, they love contra, & they drive growth. I'd bet that if you make genuine connections with this inner circle, you might just find Contra opens a few doors for you. Maybe!
