or in value? By accident, the answer is the same for me, but if it weren't for my largest client, it wouldn't be!
| | | |
My clients seem to be quite evenly spread on three continents. None in my country of residence, though.

My main clients are spread all over Europe: Belgium, Netherlands, Sweden, Germany, France, Luxembourg, Greece, United Kingdom, Spain and Portugal, with a handful in Africa and Americas, plus one in Japan and another in Australia.

Likewise. Not too many in Antarctica but pretty much everywhere else. I have to admit I'm not too good on continents and I'd have to look up some of the addresses, but the pins would be all over the globe. Maybe a slim majority are in Europe, I'm not sure, but certainly not most of them.

| Evenly spread | May 27, 2014 |
My clients are located on 4 continents, but (at present) none in my country of residence. And I like it this way. It has turned me into a walking time zone "expert".

They used to be primarily based in Europe, but now we're pretty evenly spaced. We even have some Asian clients, which is weird because of our language pairs, but we're still happy to have them!
| | | |
My clients are about 33% in my country (Mexico), 33% in another country in my continent (Canada and the USA), and 33% in Europe (mostly Germany, the UK and Spain). I have no Asian, African or South American clients.

Mostly Germany and Scandinavia, sometimes the Netherlands or France, occasionally Spain, my country of residence, and rarely the UK, my country of birth.
| | | | | Clients aiming to be located in my country of residence | May 27, 2014 |
I specialise in legal documents. My clients are mostly future immigrants to my country of residence. Currently located in Germany or Austria with the aim of moving to beautiful NZ.

I am based in the US (California). Besides the US, I have had clients on every continent except Antarctica. My main clients are international organizations, and one of them has PMs throughout the world. I get quite a few jobs from Mozambique and Angola in Africa; I had one from East Timor and another from North Korea. Other countries include Canada, Brazil, Mexico, Argentina, Chile, Venezuela, Germany, Spain, Israel, Australia, New Zealand, Japan, China, and Singapore.
| | | | | Several places | May 27, 2014 |
Most frequent: Brazil, USA (evenly split, requests oscilate in waves between one and the other).
Every now and then: UK, France, Netherlands, Canada.
Seldom: Singapore, Australia
| | | | | Other- a mixture | May 28, 2014 |
Some are local or in my region, some are elsewhere in the province, a few in Canada and the US, some in Uk or Europe, mostly france, germany, belgium.
It's pretty evenly scattered about.
