One of the things I enjoy the most about working with apps is debugging.
Recently I helped Michelle resolve two bugs in her @Anything that had been blocking progress for weeks. After reviewing the code, testing different approaches and iterating together, we managed to fix both issues and get everything working again.
Moments like this are why I love this kind of work turning frustrating problems into working solutions.
Thank you Michelle for trusting me with your project 🙏

“Jessica was fantastic to work with. She communicated clearly every step of the way and was very quick with her bug fixes. I had been stuck on 2 issues for weeks and she was able to resolve both of them!”

Just wrapped up a 3-hour meeting with a lead who is now officially a client 😊
I went into the meeting feeling pretty nervous. The project had great potential, and I was slightly concerned that budget might become a sticking point.
But the conversation went better than I could have expected. They were really impressed with the project overview, architecture, and the level of attention to detail we brought to the table. The best part? They didn’t even try to negotiate the price.
Such a great reminder that when clients clearly see the thought, planning, and value behind the work, the conversation becomes much less about cost.
Really excited to kick things off next week! 🚀
I think the project overview did the pricing work before the number came up. Showing the hard decisions early ties the fee to fewer surprises instead of a pile of hours.
have you applied to a Contra job posting & ACTUALLY got the gig?
i've been thinking about the fact 100% of the work i've been contracted for on Contra has come from people who message me.
i've applied to numerous job ad's here on Contra but have never even got a follow-up from hiring contacts after applying.
is this an experience unique to me, though? am i doing something wrong, maybe not applying to enough?
hit me, what's the advice for actually booking a contra job posting? 👀 feel free to share in the replies here!
What's your point here?
