One, or maybe two. It's not really something I actively keep track of. Clients come and go. | | |
So far in 2022 I’ve worked with 7 new clients (6 through Proz), 5 of these have been returning customers… | | | Kay Denney France Local time: 18:09 French to English
I don't think I have had any new customers so far this year. Those I have seem to be giving me ever more work, which is fine by me. I've had a couple resurface after a few years of silence, which is lovely. | |

2 new clients so far. Not bad, since I'm not actively looking for new ones and I'm always working with the same clients (about 15) for many years now. | | | None I'm afraid | Nov 15, 2022 |
But but but 2022 is not over yet, and the Christmas period may be a time when agencies look for new blood to temporarily replace incumbent translators on holiday.
Temporarily? Only if those translators are in-house. The idea is and has always been to dislodge freelance colleagues on holiday, ill or otherwise unavailable from their current comfy ranking as the default go-to translator and replace them for ever on a handful of accounts/brands.

It depends on which roster we're talking about. This year I've added several names to my list of agencies I don't want to work with.
As for clients I do want to work with, there have been two new additions in recent months and probably more earlier in the year, though I don't remember for sure. | | |
That was before my stroke in June. I am now accepting small assignments -- still spending a lot of time in therapy. | |
