While you could use this model:
1. Add all your tasks to just one file.
2. archive everything that is billed and payed.
I prefer to use one file for my personal agenda, and one per
customer. Those files tend to grow to more than just a few hundred
lines, and it's easier to find a task in the future.
Todo files for active projects/customers are added to my list of agenda
files (`C-c ['). That way it's easy to find the file by pressing `C-,'
repeatedly (e.g. during a phone call). You can type `C-,' with one hand
easily.
If the project/customer is not active anymore (nothing else to do), I do
a `C-c ]' to remove the file from my list of agenda files. This keeps
the agenda fast and clean.
