Houston Business Pulse
- Culture Focused on energy, medical, and aerospace. Professional and direct.
- Lunch Break 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM.
- Pro Tip Reach out between 9:00 AM and 11:30 AM. Houston is a practical, results-oriented city. The Central Time Zone is ideal for North American coordination. While professional, the culture has a touch of "Southern hospitality," so a friendly opening is always appropriate.
London Business Pulse
- Culture London business culture is generally formal but collaborative. "Flexi-Fridays" are common in the summer.
- Lunch Break Typically 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM.
- Pro Tip Avoid calling after 4:30 PM on Fridays as many offices wind down early for the weekend. Mid-week (Tuesday to Thursday) between 10 AM and 4 PM is the "Golden Window" for reaching decision-makers. Always start with a brief polite inquiry about their day before diving into business.
