It's like rigging a budgets to go only to schools for those that already have trust funds
Survivor bias being baked in even deeper as marketing ploy is always a cringe thing to see marketplace-platforms double down on but hey it works on the users so it's justifiable behavior using a simple metric.
Because if there is a top 100 then for the other tens of thousands it's easy to convince them that EVERYONE can make 6 figures; easy money see!
Then everyone wonders where the race to the bottom started and can't figure out why most work on a platform has become tainted with intermediaries from those top spots.
The most inspiring thing about the Contra Top 100 challenge currently going on, is seeing that at least 100 users on Contra are having at least $10k months. The dream I am sure we all have is that we will be a part of the select few that fit into that category, and seeing how many people do it on this platform is inspiring. Great to see, even if I am not there yet.
A small milestone I’m happy to share: my Contra Discovery Score reached 167, placing me in the top 1% of creatives on the platform.
I don’t read too much into rankings, but it’s nice to see consistent work and good client relationships reflected in something tangible.
Grateful to the people I’ve had the chance to work with, and looking forward to continuing to build useful products and improve along the way.
Top 1% of creatives on Contra with a 195 score 🎉 What I'm most excited about is who's showing up because of it: new clients, designers, new conversations, projects I wouldn't have found on my own. Grateful, and ready for more.
