But as to the kind of clients that bring me the highest sales figures (which is, I suspect, the object of the question):

I have less end-customers than intermediaries as clients, but the former bring me the highest sales figures. Per client and on the whole.

This topic is interesting... Aug 11, 2012

Happy weekend!

Mainly clients Aug 12, 2012

I would have thought that all of us mainly have clients (whatever type they are) in our list of mail contacts.
I wish you all a great day,
Nigel
