How This Pair Actually Operates

Mexico City Business Pulse
- Culture Formal but friendly. Titles and hierarchy are respected, and small talk is essential before business.
- Lunch Break 2:00 PM - 4:00 PM (Main meal of the day).
- Pro Tip The 2 PM - 4 PM lunch window is strictly for eating and socializing; do not expect business availability then. Best call times are 11:00 AM to 1:00 PM or after 4:30 PM. Use formal titles (Licenciado, Ingeniero) until specifically invited to use first names.
Toronto Business Pulse
- Culture Multicultural, polite, and professional. Similar to NYC but generally more reserved.
- Lunch Break 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM.
- Pro Tip The "sweet spot" is 10:00 AM to 11:30 AM. Canadians value punctuality and a polite, reserved professional tone. It is similar to NYC but with slightly more emphasis on consensus and less on aggressive directness. Avoid calling after 4:30 PM when the work day is concluding.
