New to Contra, but not new to design. 👋
I'm excited to start this journey, connect with amazing people, and collaborate on meaningful projects. If you're looking for a creative partner, I'd love the opportunity to work with you.
I’m also top rated on Upwork… welcome to Contra
I get a lot of comments like this one, and I wanted to share a few things I've learned about getting clients on Contra:
✨ Use less AI when applying or posting on the community, please!! People can tell. Make your message sound like you.
📖 Build case studies and show your process.
🎯 Apply only to projects that genuinely match your skills and portfolio. Fewer, better applications beat sending dozens.
And one more thing... I don't land every job I apply for and when I have a very slow month, I use that time to improve my portfolio and keep showing my work. Eventually, the right clients find me.
What advice would you add?
great🎉🎉
what tip can you give to someone new on this platform
Especially that using less AI… people be sounding robotic and fake it’s almost hard to read what they say here…
thanks for the insight
🎉 Small milestones matter.
A few days ago, I started taking my Contra profile seriously.
Since then, I've:
Built out my portfolio with real projects
Published case studies and technical content
Refined my services to focus on AI, automation, and full-stack development
Connected with other professionals in the community
Today, my profile reached 33 points.
It's a small milestone, but it's a reminder that consistency beats perfection. Every project, every post, and every improvement adds up.
My focus isn't just growing a profile—it's building a portfolio that reflects the kind of work I enjoy creating: AI-powered applications, workflow automation, scalable web platforms, and custom software solutions.
Looking forward to sharing more projects and connecting with more builders and businesses on Contra.
