For the beginning etiquette consultant, an average hourly fee is between $40 and $60 an hour, depending on the demand for service and the geographical area. For etiquette consultants with a bit of experience, $100 an hour or more is normal, and $200 an hour is not an uncommon price in the major metropolitan areas such as Los Angeles and New York. Phyllis Davis, a top etiquette trainer with 30 years of expertise, told us she charges $500 an hour for one-on-one consultation. Etiquette consultants are also paid up to thousands of dollars a day to present training programs (seminars or workshops) on topics related to etiquette, such as telephone etiquette for customer service staff.
