Creatives on Contra have earned over $150M and we are just getting started
That jump from 500 to 600 in 10 days after 8 months of slower growth is a good reminder that most of the payoff shows up late. Congrats on the momentum.
how do you motivate yourself, as an entrepreneur, during the down seasons?
for me, i look back over my work and ensure I remember I have so much to be proud of!
it's been a slow season in my business recently but i am SO proud of many things, including that i'm almost at the next Contra earnings milestone!
what's crazy is, i got a lead from Contra for my biggest retainer check to date in February but they used their own payroll (outside of Contra) so I really have already hit the $50k+ from Contra
but by the end of the year, I will have made $50k ON Contra! 🔥 wow, what a dream come true 🥹
Just shared MARÉ, a contemporary Portuguese conservas branding and packaging project.
Inspired by Portuguese visual culture, this project combines tradition with a fresh and modern approach through pattern, color, and illustration.
