Okay, let’s tackle this. So Jackie has 15+ years of experience in marketing, which is a broad field with many subfields. She has experience in digital marketing, which is in high demand. Project management and team leadership skills are also valuable. Location is Santa Cruz, CA, which is a relatively small market. Marketing professionals with her level of experience in the US typically charge between $75–$150 per hour. Considering her expertise and location, I estimate her rate to be around $125 per hour, which is slightly below the national average but still competitive for a marketing leader in a smaller market.
