I don’t think a cap on amount of accounts is realistic because you could have 3 accounts with only 1-2 projects each that only take up 25% of your time. What I’ve seen done more times is that there’s a cap on the amount of overall business you can manage budget wise. So for instance, account leads at my last job were “technically” capped out at managing $3M themselves
But it really should be an ongoing conversation with your manager. Everyone’s capacity is different and some people can handle more than others. What amount of work that puts one person way over capacity will put another person comfortably at capacity. Obviously saying all of this though from the ideal of an agency that’s appropriately staffed and can manage people’s capacity effectively and as needed. That’s most definitely not the norm in this industry
