Okay, let’s consider Bettina’s skills. She has a broad range of experience in supply chain management, forecasting, and business planning, which are in demand across various industries. Her expertise in merchandising and customer service adds value. Location in the New York City Metropolitan Area is a hub for retail and logistics. According to national averages, retail professionals with her skills can charge $50-$100 per hour. Considering her experience and location, I estimate her hourly rate to be around $75.
