Okay, let’s calculate this. So Gerard has a mix of sales, customer service, and account management skills, which are in demand. However, his experience and skills are not as specialized as a software engineer or a lawyer. He lacks a specific technical degree like an MBA or a law degree. Location is Boston, which is a hub for finance and tech. Sales professionals with similar skills in this location can charge around $100–$200 per hour. Considering his skills and experience, I estimate his hourly rate to be around $120.
