Job boards are dead. Your network is alive.

You don’t need another job board.
You need a signal in the noise.

Indy AI, a new feature by Contra, helps independents find career-defining opportunities through the networks they’ve already built. It connects to LinkedIn and X, then quietly surfaces warm, high-fit opportunities hiding in your extended network, including from people you didn’t even know were hiring.

No cold outreach. No endless scrolling. No pitching into the void.

This is work that finds you. Real opportunities, backed by real people you already know.

It’s not hustle culture. It’s human signal.


And it’s how independents grow without burning out.

Let Indy AI do the searching, so you can focus on the work that actually matters.

Solo creators often chase breakthroughs. Viral posts. Sudden spikes. A lucky launch.

The truth is growth rarely works that way. Real progress comes from stacking small wins into a system that compounds over time.

And when you have limited hours to work, the only way to make that system sustainable is by keeping it simple.

Here is how I approach it.

1️⃣ Capture the Win

Every small signal matters.

  • A single comment from someone in your niche

  • A click on an affiliate link

  • A post that outperforms your average

These are not random events. They are signals worth tracking.

2️⃣ Analyze the Pattern

At the end of the week, I ask simple questions:

  • Why did this piece perform better?

  • Was it the format, the topic, or the timing?

  • Can I repeat this outcome?

The goal is not to obsess over numbers. The goal is to see what is working.

3️⃣ Systematize the Repeatable

Once I spot a pattern, I bake it into my workflow.

  • Save the post as a template

  • Automate the process with Make.com

  • Tag it in Airtable or Attio for easy reference

This keeps me from starting at zero every week.

4️⃣ Stack the Compounding

Small wins build momentum. When you repeat them consistently, the system begins to scale itself.

  • More clarity means less wasted effort

  • More focus means better content

  • More consistency means stronger growth

🚀 The Lesson
You do not need more hours. You need a simple system that captures wins and compounds them. That is how solo creators grow without burning out.
