I chose 5-10. However, only one of them is monthly regular, insofar as they send me stuff most weeks/days and pay promptly at the end of the month when billed. The others take longer to pay and are less regular.

Three of these are very regular as they have been sending work every month. Two of them send work every week, but jobs from them tend to be on the shorter side, while the other sends larger volumes of work.

About the same - about 5 regular clients with whom I've been working for years (although some of these only have work to send me at unpredictable and irregular times)

Hard to be accurate Nov 19, 2019

If regular = jobs every month, then about 5
If regular = jobs every quarter, then about 12
If regular = jobs every semester, then about 25
If regular = shows up at least once a year, then about 40
