Before Contra:
🔎 I struggled to attract leads and always had to go out and find them
🎯 I couldn’t find job offers that matched my profile
💸 I received payments across multiple platforms
😵💫 Real stress!
After Contra:
✉️ Leads contact me directly through messages, without me even applying
💡 I find projects that match my skillset and my passions
🧾 I no longer get confused with payments and invoices
🚀 I know this is only the beginning!
PS: 🙌 Thanks to Contra’s Customer Support team, who always respond quickly and is incredibly kind!
Congrats!
Thanks Rasel :)

Hey Nagaraj, sorry to hear this, but the freelancer path is not an easy one for sure. My advice is to keep going, grow your network and personalize application. Good luck 💪
Congratulations!

Thanks Akin !
Congrats on the milestone! 🎉
I’m sure it wasn’t like this from day one. Many of us new on Contra struggle at the start. If you don’t mind, could you briefly share how you overcame that phase and started attracting clients? It would be really motivating and helpful for beginners like me. 🙌
Yeah 100%! For me, paying for Pro was the game changer because I could see 10x more job posts. But another important thing I did, and still do, is personalize my applications, create a visually appealing portfolio (I hope it is!), and explain in detail what I did for each project. Good luck mate! 🚀
That’s really helpful, thanks for sharing! 🙌
I’ll definitely keep working on improving those. Wishing you even more success ahead! 🚀
Nice work Beatrice, congrats!

I've been using Contra for a while now, mostly as a place to showcase our work.
But lately I've been wondering how people actually use the platform to get hired.
Is it the projects you publish? Your profile?
Being active in the community? Applying to jobs?
We've had clients find us through different places, but Contra still feels a little different to me. There's the portfolio side, the community side, the job side, and I'm not sure how much each one actually matters.
So I'm curious: if you've gotten projects through Contra, what actually worked for you?
I'd especially love to hear from people who've been using it for a while, not just what you're supposed to do, but what actually led to a project.
@contralabs Creative Intelligence Report shows AI adoption, workflows, and earnings, and the page itself is a masterpiece
The storytelling is unmatched.
Huge congrats to the big talent behind, @Mark Vassilevskiy, @Alex Karpodinis, @Stacy · Heed Collective, @Heed Collective , @Erin Horner, @Ben Huffman and the entire @Contra Labs team 👏
