Okay, let’s tackle this. So Bobby has 10 years of experience in event planning, which is a solid foundation. However, his experience as a Deputy Sheriff doesn’t directly translate to event planning rates. He lacks specific experience in marketing strategy, social media marketing, or event management roles. Considering his skills and experience, I'd place him in the lower end of the event planning salary range. According to industry benchmarks, event planners with similar experience in the Orlando area might charge around $40-$75 per hour. Given Bobby's limited experience in the field, I'll estimate his hourly rate to be around $45.
