Okay, let’s tackle this. So Nate has a range of skills, but he’s not a seasoned expert in any one area. He’s got a solid foundation in graphic design and web design, which are in-demand skills. However, his lack of experience in high-level creative direction or leadership roles brings his rate down. Considering his skills and location in Boise, Idaho, a rate of $75 per hour seems reasonable. This is lower than what a more experienced creative professional might charge, but it’s still a competitive rate for someone with his skillset in a smaller market.
