How This Rate is Calculated

Okay, let’s calculate Kurt’s rate. He has 27 years of experience in a senior role, which is a significant amount of time. His experience spans multiple companies, including Marriott International, and he has held various positions, such as Director of Catering Sales. He also has a certification as a Certified Meeting Professional (CMP), which is a well-respected credential in the industry. Considering his experience, education, and certification, I would estimate his hourly rate to be around $125. This is slightly below the national average for hospitality executives with similar experience, but it’s still a competitive rate. Some sources suggest that experienced hospitality professionals can earn up to $200 per hour, but Kurt’s role and experience suggest a more modest rate.
