Engagement Relationship definition

[toniolivier]

Sorry if this is a stupid question...

In the legal center I can't find a proper definition of the "engagement relationship".  I presume this is the relationship between client and freelancer that spans individual job contracts? 

I'm asking because I want to be 100% sure that closing a job with my client and starting a new one won't trigger a new "relationship" and therefore 20% in fees.

Thanks for any help!

It won't.

Any work you do with the same client, be it on one contract or dozens, counts as the relationship. This means, once you reach $ 500 with that one client, the fee drops to 10% and stays there until you hit $ 10 000.
