Okay, let’s tackle this. So Jerry has a mix of creative and digital marketing skills, which are in demand. He’s based in NYC, which is a hub for advertising and marketing. Creative Directors with his level of experience can expect to charge higher rates. According to Glassdoor, Creative Directors in NYC average around $80,000–$110,000 per year. Let’s estimate his hourly rate based on that. Assuming a 40-hour workweek and 52 weeks per year, that’s around $100–$130 per hour. Considering his skills and location, I’ll estimate around $125 per hour.
