Okay, let’s tackle this. So Mark Cutter has a degree in Computer Science and is an IT professional with experience in software development and project management. Location is Fairfield, Iowa, which is a smaller market. According to national averages, project managers with similar experience can charge between $50-$100 per hour. Considering the location and his experience, I’d estimate his rate to be on the lower end of that range, around $75 per hour. Some project managers in similar roles in larger cities might charge upwards of $150 per hour, but Fairfield is a smaller market, so I’m being conservative with this estimate.
