Glasgow Business Pulse
- Culture Hardworking, direct, and entrepreneurial. A center for engineering, tech, and services.
- Lunch Break 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM.
- Pro Tip Ideal call window is 10:00 AM to 12:00 PM and 2:00 PM to 4:00 PM. Glaswegians are known for their directness and down-to-earth approach. A friendly, straightforward tone is most effective. Avoid overly complex jargon and focus on practical results and mutual benefit.
Tianjin Business Pulse
- Culture Major port city. Practical, industrial, and trade-oriented.
- Lunch Break 12:00 PM - 1:30 PM.
- Pro Tip Aim for 10:00 AM to 11:30 AM. As a major northern port, business is practical and industrial. Close ties with Beijing mean a similar emphasis on hierarchy and formal protocol. Avoid the 12-1:30 PM lunch break and major public holidays.
