I don't really get these requests but one client keeps proposing to take me for a meal.
How much would you charge if it was a social meet?
I charge a rate that represents the value of that time to me, am you missing opportunities to take a full rate booking or do something in your private life?
I have a slightly lower rate for a 4 hour dinner date, lower than 4 hours private time, but only slightly and I don't promote them because I don't want to be eating out numerous times each week or even month.
