Hi, I would really appreciate some help!
It seems to me that the sentence "He felt he will probably be promoted after this project as it was so successful in attracting new customers", has two subjects and two verbs:
"He felt he will probably be promoted after this project as it was so successful in attracting new customers"
So, if each has a subject and a predicate of its own, shouldn't "he felt", and "he will probably be promoted..." be independent / subordinate clauses? In that case, shouldn't there be a coordinate conjunction between them? I feel so lost!

Basically, "that" is implied here.
He felt (that) he will probably be promoted after this project as it was so successful in attracting new customers.
So, "that he will....project" is actually a dependent clause.
Incidentally, there is another dependent clause here: "as it was so successful in attracting new customers".
Please refer to this video for Independent and Dependent clauses.
p.s. Our book EducationAisle Sentence Correction Nirvana discusses Independent and Dependent clauses, their application and examples in significant detail. If you or someone is interested, PM me your email-id; I can mail the corresponding section.

Hi, thank you so much for the response! In that case, would "he felt" be the main independent clause, even though its meaning isn't complete on its own?
