Houston Business Pulse

- 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.
Marseille Business Pulse

- Lunch Break 12:30 PM - 2:00 PM.
- Pro Tip Ideal call window is 10:00 AM to 11:30 AM. Business culture in Marseille is relational; spend time on introductions and building trust. Directness is appreciated, but it should be polite. Avoid the 12:30-2 PM lunch break strictly. Personal presence is highly valued.
