    I have 2 rates. One is my freelance and the other is for dedicated contract work with a minimum of 25 hours a week of work from that one client. I, personally, think its insane to ask a client thats basically hired you part-time or more to pay $85 or $100 an hour and I usually find that it works against you in landing the work in the first place. I usually knock it down by 50% since its consistent guaranteed work. I figure I make the discount back because its less time I have to spend searching for more freelance, contacting clients, having meetings, etc, etc.

    One last question about this whole gig.

    What is the average hourly rate you get for freelancing at an agency? I know it varies but I'm looking for ballpark numbers. One offered me $40-45 an hour. Where as if I did freelance on my own I charge $100 an hour.

    Anyone like to chime in on how you go about that?

    thanks
