72 <p>If a recruiter is telling you he's only making like $10-$15/hr above the rate he's offering you then he's probably lying. The industry standard is anywhere from 20-75% markup. This means that for a rate of $90/hr the staffing firm is billing the client anywhere from $108/hr to $150/hr.</></p>
73 <p>From <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://peopleticker.com/bill-rate">http://peopleticker.com/bill-rate</a></p>
74 <blockquote><span>Typical markups range from as low as <span style="text-decoration: underline;"><b>20% to 50%</b></span> or more<br /> </span></blockquote>
75 <p>From <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://www.entrepreneur.com/article/234665">http://www.entrepreneur.com/article/234665</a></p>
76 <blockquote><span>In general, niche markets (e.g., IT) produce higher markups than do traditional staffing markets (e.g., clerical). Veigele notes that occasionally her firm's markup can approach <span style="text-decoration: underline;"><b>75 percent for a computer company client</b></span>.</span></blockquote>
77 <p><span></span>From <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://www.eremedia.com/fordyce/heres-how-to-set-your-contract-staffing-rates/">http://www.eremedia.com/fordyce/heres-how-to-set-your-contract-staffing-rates/</a></p>
79 <p>Once you have an hourly pay rate for the contractor, you can use an average multiplier to calculate the hourly bill rate for the company. The location of the contract assignment can affect what multiplier you use. If you are placing someone in New York the multiplier would be higher than Michigan. <b><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Multipliers usually range between 1.5 and 1.8</span></b>, but they can go much higher for healthcare professionals and hard-to-fill positions.</p>
80 <p>Our tracking shows that the current average multiplier for technical and professional contract staffing throughout the United States is 1.60. For the past 10 years it has ranged from an average of 1.51 to 1.67. (Excluding healthcare contract placements.)</p>
81 <p><strong>Note</strong>: The multiplier is defined as the quotient of the company bill rate divided by the employee pay rate. A simple example of a 1.5 multiplier would be a scenario where the bill rate is $60 per hour and the pay rate is $40 per hour. The common term for multiplier is also "mark-up."</p>
