<div><br></div><div>I agree with your assessment about demand. CiviCRM is arguably much harder to work with than Drupal -- yet it does some powerful things, integrates with Drupal, and remains in demand largely because of those points. For CiviCRM/Drupal integration that goes beyond tying users to contact records and exposing contribution pages and event registrations in the CMS, you can and should command a higher rate than Drupal most of the time. Anyway, my shop charges one rate regardless.</div>
