I’m new here on Contra and excited to connect with authors and creators who are building something meaningful.

If you’re an author, I’d love to hear about your experience so far. What’s been the biggest challenge you’ve faced with visibility or getting your work in front of the right audience?

Feel free to comment or message me. I enjoy exchanging insights and learning from others.

Hey Contra community 👋

I've been actively applying to projects here and getting some traction (matches, views, conversations) but I want to learn from those who've cracked the code.

For those landing consistent clients on Contra: - What does your profile look like? (headline, bio structure, portfolio setup) - Do you apply to every relevant job or are you selective? - Video proposals vs text - what's working for you? - How do you stand out when 10-15 people have already applied?

Any tips for international freelancers competing with US/EU-based talent? I'm a fullstack developer with 6+ years, 4 live iOS apps, and experience across fintech, energy, and e-commerce. Getting views but want to improve my conversion rate from application to hire.

Drop your tips, tricks, or lessons learned. Even the small stuff helps.
