Website
I am translating a website for a marketing company and generally Etat is used for "budget", but that makes no sense in the context here:

Grants? Projects?
Has anyone encountered this use of Etat?

new account
odder ggf. "new-name client/account" sollte für eine Überschrift ausreichen. Sofern die drei Begriffe keine Aufzählung, sondern individuelle Überschriften sind, dann natürlich groß schreiben. Der Unterschied zwischen "new" und "new-name" besteht darin, dass "new accounts" z.b. auch eine weitere Produktsparte eines Bestandskunden sein kann, ein "new-name client" aber ein völlig neuer Kunde ist.
Ich würde es vielleicht im Englischen insgesamt recht knapp lassen: "New accounts, (interesting) people, creative awards"

: there is a difference between a new account and one you won (in competition). A new one is offered to you without competing for it. In the agency world, this is a big difference.

Seriously? In Banking software a new account is any account you have won usually against one or more competitors. In all my years we never had a customer walk in the door saying "I want to buy one of your systems"...
