WAY too low. I'd say from george's $65/hr. to $100/hr. is in the ballpark,
so to speak. George gives lots of good advice - heed his remarks about
bonding/insurance, etc. That gives a good reason to keep the price up, too.

When you drop your price, it's puts downward price pressure on everyone
else, too.
