Okay, let’s tackle this. So Samantha has a broad set of marketing skills, including public relations, media relations, and social media marketing. She’s based in Amesbury, MA, which is a smaller market. Marketing professionals with her skillset in smaller markets tend to charge lower rates. According to national averages, marketing communications specialists with her experience might charge around $50–$100 per hour. Considering her skills and location, I estimate her rate to be around $75 per hour.
