Guangzhou Business Pulse
- Culture Pragmatic and trade-focused. Known for "Canton Fair" and a deep history in international commerce.
- Lunch Break 12:00 PM - 2:00 PM.
- Pro Tip The 12-2 PM lunch window is very important; avoid calling then. Best times are 10:00 AM - 11:30 AM and 2:30 PM - 4:30 PM. While Cantonese is the local language, Mandarin is the business standard for non-locals. Pragmatism and efficiency are highly valued in this major trade hub.
Phoenix Business Pulse
- Culture Practical and influenced by the tech and aerospace sectors.
- Lunch Break 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM.
- Pro Tip Always double-check the time! Arizona does not observe Daylight Saving Time, so its offset with the rest of the US changes twice a year. Reach out between 8:30 AM and 11:30 AM. The culture is practical and direct, typical of the growing Mountain West tech hub.
