    I've got two major clients right now in financial services, one I'm on site for about 80% of the time, the other about 10%, but I do a lot of off site work too. Also have 3 ongoing web design clients which is part of my 'Plan B'. Busy.

    Nope, either get yellow pages out and write to them all or go put your CV through their doors like fliers.

    I think it's easier to have multiple clients if you're a coder of some sort.
    Or an accountant...

    Can you rephrase the question?

    I said 5+ as I have one proper client through an agency but also have a database of my own clients on a self employed basis.
    If you work for those clients regularly then well done. Commendable in fact.
