Chicago Business Pulse
- Culture Practical, hardworking, and friendly. A major hub for logistics, finance, and manufacturing.
- Lunch Break 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM.
- Pro Tip Best times for calls are 9:00 AM to 11:30 AM. Chicagoans are known for being practical and direct but also friendlier than their East Coast counterparts. The Central Time Zone is the "Goldilocks zone" for North American business, allowing for easy syncs with both NYC and LA.
Perth Business Pulse
- Culture Professional but relaxed. Influenced by the mining and energy sectors.
- Lunch Break 12:30 PM - 1:30 PM.
- Pro Tip The ideal window is 9:30 AM to 11:30 AM. Perth shares a timezone with much of Asia (Singapore, Hong Kong), making it a major hub for regional trade. The culture is professional but has a relaxed "West Coast" vibe. Personal rapport and a "fair go" attitude are appreciated.
