Okay, let’s tackle this. So Mike Batt has a broad skill set in tourism, travel management, and marketing strategy. He’s based in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, which is a major hub for the travel industry. Industry benchmarks suggest that travel professionals with his skill set and experience can charge around $75-$125 per hour. However, considering his expertise in new business development, I’ll estimate his rate to be on the higher end of that range. Let’s assume an average of $100 per hour, considering the demand for travel professionals in the industry and his role as a marketing strategist.
