Does anyone in the #localisation and/or #freelancing bubble here have got any tips for how I would efficiently break out of the "single client" death loop into sustainable client acquisition?

I have been doing this job for several years now and it's been amazing. I'm just afraid of betting everything on one horse. If the agency that hires me most goes under for any reason I lose my livelihood.

My current ideas are in the replies:

Here's information and a script for converting regular expression libraries in the popular RegexBuddy app to the #memoQ Regex Assistant. Interoperability between these two solution management tools facilitates sharing among users of diverse #translation management platforms, external solution providers and more. Even current users of the Regex Assistant can benefit from using RegexBuddy for analysis and debugging of expressions for text search, find & replace and quality assurance, so a conversion tool like this can help with such processes.

There are many aspects of terminology application in the #memoQ #translation environment. It's much more than just term bases. For example, auto-translation rules can be made to convert structured information like dates, citations, numbers with units and currency expressions (see screenshot) into consistent target language formats that are preferred or specified by a style guide.

Join the free memoQ terminology skills workshops on February 20 & 27 and learn about auto-translation rules and many other ways to come to better terms with the world's best translation organization toolkit!
