Okay, let’s tackle this. So Ira Decter has 48 years of experience in event planning, which is a very long tenure. This level of experience typically commands a higher rate. Considering his expertise in multiple areas like event management, entertainment, and social media marketing, he could charge a premium rate. Let’s look at industry benchmarks. Event planners with similar experience and expertise can charge $100-$250 per hour. However, Ira’s 48 years of experience and his role as an owner of Rembrandt Productions might warrant a higher rate. Maybe around $200-$300 per hour? But considering he’s not a traditional event planner, but rather an entrepreneur with a long history of event planning, I’ll estimate around $150 per hour.
