Okay, let’s calculate this. Scott has a broad range of skills, but they’re mostly in the service industry. Event planners and coordinators can charge $25–$50 per hour, depending on the location and level of experience. Since Scott is based in Boothbay Harbor, Maine, a smaller coastal town, I’ll estimate the lower end of that range. Considering his skills and experience, I think he could charge around $40–$45 per hour, which is a reasonable estimate for a local event professional.
