Istanbul Business Pulse
- Culture A bridge between East and West. Business is personal, and hospitality (tea/coffee) is a prerequisite.
- Lunch Break 12:30 PM - 1:30 PM.
- Pro Tip Aim for calls between 10:00 AM and 12:00 PM or 2:00 PM and 4:30 PM. Turkish business culture is highly relational; starting with "Nasılsınız?" (How are you?) and building rapport is essential. Avoid scheduling critical calls late on Friday afternoons.
Miami Business Pulse
- Culture Energetic, bilingual (English/Spanish), and influenced by Latin American culture.
- Lunch Break 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM.
- Pro Tip Calls are best made between 10:30 AM and 3:30 PM. Miami business is often social and bilingual; do not be surprised if meetings transition between English and Spanish. Relationship building is critical, and many deals are discussed in informal settings like restaurants or cafes.
