Washington D.C. Business Pulse

  • Culture Highly formal, networking-heavy, and influenced by government and policy.
  • Lunch Break 12:30 PM - 1:30 PM.
  • Pro Tip Ideal call window is 10:00 AM to 11:30 AM and 2:00 PM to 4:00 PM. Punctuality is non-negotiable. DC is a "Power City"; be prepared for very formal protocols and the use of professional or political titles. Networking is a 24/7 activity here, but business calls should stay within 9-6.

New York City Business Pulse

  • Culture Fast-paced and direct. Punctuality is highly valued, and meetings often get straight to business.
  • Lunch Break Often "on-the-go" between 12:30 PM and 1:30 PM.
  • Pro Tip Mornings (9:30 AM - 11:30 AM) are best for high-energy discussions. After 4:00 PM EST, most professionals are wrapping up or in "commute mode," making it a poor time for complex topics. Keep your pitch concise—New Yorkers value their time and appreciate directness over lengthy pleasantries.
