Atlanta Business Pulse
- Culture Corporate and networking-heavy. Known for "Southern hospitality" in business.
- Lunch Break 12:30 PM - 1:30 PM.
- Pro Tip Best reached between 9:30 AM and 11:30 AM. Atlanta is the "Capital of the South" and home to many Fortune 500 giants. Professionalism is high, but "Southern Hospitality" is real; a warm, personal, and polite opening is essential for building rapport before jumping into business.
Istanbul Business Pulse
- Culture A bridge between East and West. Business is personal, and hospitality (tea/coffee) is a prerequisite.
- Lunch Break 12:30 PM - 1:30 PM.
- Pro Tip Aim for calls between 10:00 AM and 12:00 PM or 2:00 PM and 4:30 PM. Turkish business culture is highly relational; starting with "Nasılsınız?" (How are you?) and building rapport is essential. Avoid scheduling critical calls late on Friday afternoons.
